Sleep Wake Mood Cycle

I woke at 3AM told myself 'no way are you getting up, go back to sleep.' It worked! Slept until 7.

Yesterday I climbed into bed at 4-5PM to try to rest in the dark with Romeo pup at my side just to SLOW DOWN MY BRAIN while waiting for Bill to arrive home from school. I'm still running at a higher speed from the big worry. It was good to signal "slow down."

Every day this week felt like a FRIDAY exhaustion-wise. I got some new insights into my mood brain. My joke was next time I am in a deep low like I usually am in November, Bill should pretend he has a back spasm and maybe I would snap out of it like I did. Bad joke but interesting strategy.
