I used to have insomnia when I was a lot younger. But this past several years, I generally sleep well except when I am suffering from a very bad jet lag or when I am really worried about something. Oh, also, when I am overly excited or anxious about tomorrow.
Last night I couldn’t sleep for some reason. I was restless. I went to bed at almost 2 am, dozed off for a few minutes then I stood up at 2:20 am. I couldn’t sleep anymore. My mind was so active, daming iniisip. Some good, some sad, some exciting. I was thinking of my children especially my son. Sana lagi syang gabayan sa mga decisions nya. I also thought of my deceased brother Kuya Ben and my parents. I also thought of my health, of other people that are dying, of Hillary, of Trump, of the New Jersey train crash, of Duterte’s veritable friendship with China.
Before I knew it, it was almost 5 am. I would look like a zombie from lack of sleep.
It’s month end, things are always crazy at the office, with the sales department trying to hit their quota. Me naman, abala kasi magpapa-picture pa.
Happy friday, happy payday, happy weekend.
Abah teka, payday pala today, tila wala akong sweldo.
Try taking melatonin tablets before going to sleep and you should keep your room dark, no noise or music at all. Sometimes praying works. I tell the Blessed Mother, I want to sleep. Right away my eyelids became very heavy and went to a deep sleep.
