My Thoughts On Two And A Half Hours Sleep


I was up most of the night last night.  I kept waking up, dozing...  I was so tempted to stay home and rest my leg and get some much needed sleep but as a single working mom, I don't have that choice.


I'm already making up time from missing a Monday, this would only be adding to it more.  If there is anyone who wants 2012 gone now, it's me. I had such high hopes for this year, it just didn't work out the way it should have.

I'm stuck in Nova Scotia when my 'D' is not feeling good.  I want to be there for him, I want to take care of him.  I just sit here worrying and praying that he'll be okay and mostly that he won't have to go back in for surgery again.  It seems like every other person I talk to is having great difficulties... how I wish everyone's load gets a little lighter soon.

I'm trying to stay positive and uplifting, especially with my David. He's finding it difficult to feel good when he keeps having these set backs.  I know how he feels though, my leg starts getting better then I walk somewhere and the pain sets in for a couple of days. It's hard to keep myself up but I don't give up, if I did I would never get out of bed.

I wonder when I'm just going to feel like myself again?  I don't expect perfection, I just want to feel okay.  Battling your health is nasty, I've known how blessed I was, I can't wait to feel that way again.

  1. I wish you could get some sleep--I know it would make you feel better. Sleep deprivation does weird stuff to the brain. PLEASE try to get caught up on your rest!

  7. It is hard to sleep and also hard to focus on anything else when you have health problems. I hope your legs heals soon and that you feel more like your old self.

  9. I hope David gets better soon and fully recovered. I know it must be hard wanting to be with him but not able to be-so frustrating. I also hope your leg stops hurting so much, I know how much of a struggle it is to have to get up and get through your day at work when you are not feeling great. Really feel for you Launna and hoping praying things improve for you. Thank you for your caring comment on my blog. I too will not be sad to see 2012 leave us, roll on good things in 2013 :-)
