I just couldn't sleep last night. I turned off the TV and the computer and the radio and the phone and any other "convenience" at about 9:00 last night because I felt physically exhausted. But I found that I wasn't sleepy. I tried a glass of water. No luck. I tried saying the Rosary (usually a sure bet to La La Land)--No luck, but I was able to offer the prayers for my family! I turned on the computer and played some games. I surfed the net. I read the on-line Bible. Still no sleep. About 3:3o am, I said to myself, "Oh well, you have to get up and get ready for work in about an hour anyway, you may as well just stay up." That did it. All of a sudden I couldn't keep my eyes open. Sure enough, I got up at 4:30 and was extremely sleepy all day.
Not a good way to be when the boss calls and says, "Change of plans! Instead of staying in Fresno tonight, I need you to go home to Stockton and take care of an issue that has come up." Great. I can handle being sleepy if I'm busy. But not while I'm driving.
The good news is that my Guardian Angel was with me (as always) and I made it home safe. My blog was going to be about our "personal" angels tonight, but I can barely think right now, so my Guardian Angel entry will have to wait until tomorrow.
