I could not sleep last night

I do not know if I was excited about going back to my school job or if I could feel the rain coming in. Possibly I was waiting up for hubby.
It could have been I smelled the skunks outdoors.
Whatever it was, I had a hard time staying awake at our inservice, and I am really unmotivated at this time, as well.
Hubby stayed up late last night, and he is napping right now.
Think I may join him, at least for a half an hour.

I am lucky, in my immediate neighborhood I may smell wildlife, but not WILD LIFE and stinky human stuff. Half hour nap did wonders.

Sometimes, when things are weighing on our mind, we can't sleep because we can't get our brain to slow down and let things go.
I didn't sleep well today, either. I kept thinking about things that are happening at home and I tend to worry, anyway.
I hope you did take a nap and are feeling much better now.

As soon as I lay down, the phone rang. I ignored it and took a thirty minute nap, which was very helpful.

@GardenGerty Oh, nice! Sometimes I give the phone to Pretty because most of the calls we get are for her anyway.

I hate when I cannot sleep the night before and fall asleep during the day because I am so tired or want to go to bed very early because I am so tired. It sounds like a plan for you to take a nap with your husband. I hope you can get better sleep tonight.

Most of the time I do sleep well, so that is good.

I am glad most of the time you sleep well. Did you have something very stressful weighing on your mind that you did not sleep well?

Nothing wrong with a nap if you need one.

I have some days when I can take one. I find them very helpful.

Sometimes a power nap is all you need.

When I'm extremely excited about something, I could hardly sleep at all. Another reason I couldn't is when some thoughts keep bothering me.

Twenty minutes usually works pretty well.

I was afraid I would not be sleepy tonight, but that was wrong. I am sleepy again now.
