TODAY’S WORRY
Do you sleep? I mean all night. Or if you wake up, do you go back to sleep right away? I am very good at falling asleep but not very good at staying asleep. Is it because as a mother you get used to always being on the alert for any little noise? Is it just that as you get older you don’t need to sleep as much? I am frequently awake between 3 AM and 5 AM. I toss and turn. Sometimes I go look at my email. I play solitaire on my PDA. (Playing games on one’s PDA is an excellent way to while away the sleepless hours. It is backlit so you don’t have to turn on a light and bother your sleeping partner.) I don’t remember the last time I slept all night. I’d really like to.
