Sleep

I went to bed late all weekend long because I was trying to unpack & do some cleaning.  The walls have dust all over them & I can't really clean them until the boxes are out of my way.  So, I've been putting the boxes in their prospective rooms until I can empty them out.

Monday night I was trying to go to bed early so that I could be ready for work the following day but I couldn't fall asleep.  I was tired as hell too.  So why is it that when we're the most tired, we have the hardest time falling asleep?

Last night I went to bed early.  It was about 8:20 pm & I was falling asleep on the couch.  I kept asking baby if he was ready to go to sleep but he kept ignoring me (meaning no).  I went to bed finally at 9pm & I was out, I mean in a deep sleep out.  However, this morning I woke up feeling as though I didn't get enough sleep.  I slept pretty good.  Why is that?

Last but certainly not least, my alarm went off at 4:30am (same time as always), I heard it but I thought, a few more minutes & I'll get up.  I fell back asleep & woke up at 4:45am, freaked, rushed, & had enough time to make a pb & j sandwich with milk to go.  I always wondered why we wait until the last minute to get up when we know we'll be rushing if we wait any longer.  What is it about those 15 extra minutes?

I was listening to the John Tesh Intelligence for Your Life Radio Program at work yesterday & he mentioned the reason for this but I can't remember now & I wish I could find it on his site.  I've been looking for it.  I'll post it as a comment when I find it.
