Well, I am off to see Matthew in ID. YAY!!!
However, I am dreading having to drive 3 hours, and then fly 3 hours to get there. Sigh. And then do that all over again Monday. I am seriously tired of the travel that has been packed into my last 2 months. I am also having a little PTSD about driving alone after my move up here that involved the care flight episode - and I have never driven to or been in the airport I am going to. Sometimes I wish I had a boyfriend. I am kinda sick of doing everything alone. (OK, a lot lately!).
I think I am just seriously tired. I had forgotten the true meaning of salaried. You certainly do not make any more money salaried, then an hourly job when you divide the number of hours worked by your pay!!! None the less, I am grateful for a job.
I have also stopped taking my Ambien due to a relocation/XR glitch - and it has truly come to my attention I must have a true sleep disorder. I never seem to go into NREM sleep. I dream all night long, usually nightmares, and I wake up appx every hour and a half. I do not want to go back on the Ambien, I want to decrease my medications - but I do not know if I can withstand the lack of true deep sleep - not to mention all of the incessant crazy dreaming. It has been 2 weeks since I stopped taking it, and my sleep pattern is still the same. Has anyone else experienced this?
Anyway - just wanted to check in and say hi. I will talk to you guys soon.
