“There was an old sailor my grandfather knew,
Who had so many things that he wanted to do,
That whenever he thought it was time to begin,
He couldn’t because of the state he was in!”

(A. A. Milne)

I sleep like a log, unless I am sorely vexed at my spouse. Then, I lie awake plotting revenge.

I envy you for putting your insomnia to good use. I usually just lie there in bed, staring up at the darkened ceiling, stewing over past hurts or thinking about what I *should* be doing and haven’t done yet. Yes, insomnia is not a pleasant thing for me, and is in no way productive.

Well, invite me over when you get your chocolate swimming pool. Because THAT would be worth a plane flight to Seattle for.

Apparently you’ve found a trap-door into the back of my head. I’m always poking at (and being poked by!) my ideas and plans for the house too.

Last night could’ve been that way for me…I laid there forever thinking about getting up, but with all three of the Wild Boys sick right now, I knew I needed the sleep.

It’s funny how you can get do much done when you’re supposed to be doing something else, eh? My prob lately has been a nagging need to organize my abode instead of doing my college homework..arg!

Is the lone antique white chair dispensable? Meaning do you have to have it at every meal? Maybe you could just cover it with some cute chair cover or a throw rug and put it in a corner. And put stray cookbooks on it like a bookshelf. I don’t know. I can see it in my head, but I don’t know if I’m saying it right.

And hoo boy, my dreams of late have been insane, so I kind of envy your insomnia.

I hate the middle of the night, awake…alone…restless…driven to do things I don’t particularly want to do. I hope you can keep awake and active all day and fall into a well-deserved sleep tonight. Love you!

Oh, you and I are sisters of a different kind. We’re the keepers of the nights. My dilemma is that our house is now on the market and we have everything done. My night forays are more of a rambling sort. And I just can’t get myself in a book. I know! Me not reading!

Fear not, I know this will pass much quicker than I think it will. Until then, I need to keep myself away from ebay. I’m down a hundred after last night… but at least I’ll have some cute clothes that will take up more space in our closet… Hey, now I’ve just thought of something else I can do. I’ll get to cleaning out even more of that closet space to make room.
