Sleep is beautiful

Published on September 18, 2004 By Phoenixboi In Blogging

Ive never appreciated the value of sleeping until today.

For the past 3 weeks I have been ill, being in hospital you don't sleep because they wake you up constantly doing observations. Then coming home I developed the allergic reaction to the antibiotics so at night time it has been hell getting to sleep because of the constant scratching and itch.

Then came last night.

Finally after 3 weeks and one day, FINALLY! I had a full nights sleep!

This is how I did it..

I made a makeshift bed out of my doona on the lounge room floor, had the television on and fell asleep watching television. This possibly has a danger to have my sleeping patterns disrupted but hey I slept all night, and at this point my sleeping patterns have been totally fucked up anyhow so getting this full nights sleep has been blissful!

You know Im learning a valuable lesson, one I knew but now am really appreciating..

Never take anything for granted.

I'm so glad you finally managed to get a decent night's kip, P! I know how horrid it is to be tired but not be able to sleep...and how freakin' awesome it is to wake up after a solid night of snooze. I had my first decent night's sleep all week last night - my cold is getting better so I wasn't awake every 5 mins coughing or sneezing or blowing my nose.

Love you!
