Stress and worry have been altering my routine lately. I have been staying up til midnight either working on a cross-stitch chart or working on my last article of the day. Then not waking up until early 9 am later on in the morning than I would like to be up. I am not necessarily an early morning or late night person and yet during the summer I get up earlier and then in the wintertime I can find myself staying up late.
So Yesterday was the 3rd or 4th day in a row where this happened. I actually found myself taking a nap after we ate dinner which I hadn’t done. If it wasn’t for the Baby Shower I had to get ready for I might have slept a bit longer. The shower was a nice distraction from my worries and yet it was right in front of me. A couple having a second child. It stresses the dichotomy with my 3 year online relationship. Unofficially engaged and whatever that means and never having met, yet we do emotionally know each other deeply; we are not strangers at all.
Anyhow last night again, I stayed up too late. Then I could not allow my timer to wake me up for church at all. I ended up having to eat breakfast to take my pills, but then sleeping a bit more. Odd, I’m certain this has nothing to do with our showing the house this afternoon right?
The one person who should not be around when prospective buyers were around and yet I was there. Going through the house was not easy for me. I hadn’t been in the house since October but we still had some things left in there. I was nearly in tears a few different times taking last photos and finding some things stashed in one of the closets. One of the things in the boxes was my Grandpa’s Bible with his name on the front and his John Hancock on the inside. I don’t remember seeing this Bible.
So considering my sleeping troubles and stress on top of today it’s been quite an emotional weekend. Then add on that today is St. Patrick’s Day it was a little bit of fun to make certain I wore green as I left home.
