Day 3: Trouble Falling Asleep
I set myself up for a perfect night of sleep, yet I had trouble falling asleep. I had great ambitions of rising earlier today. I had planned on getting up at 5:40am. Instead, I rose at 6:10am.
Having Trouble Falling Asleep Sucks When You Want To Sleep
Ok, maybe I did something I shouldn’t have done. We had an extended birthday party for my son and I drank to glasses of Pepsi and had a big piece of cake. My last glass of soda was a little after 7:00pm and I went to bed right around 10:00pm.
Another thing that is not helping is the rest of my family isn’t quite on board with rising early like I am. Therefore, they are up later and I can hear everything that is going on. Perhaps I need to look into earplugs. I worry about that because then I may not hear the alarm going off. I would also be paranoid about not hearing a potential intruder at night. I know what you’re probably saying: “It’s a wonder you sleep at night!”
I can’t stand it when I have trouble falling asleep. I was extremely tired getting into bed. Oh well, I guess be more aware of what I’m eating and drinking prior to saying good night.
On the brightside, I did rise early again!
