I’m Always Tired

arizona-lantanaI have been sleeping like a baby lately – waking up every few hours and crying. Well maybe not the crying part, but I have not been sleeping well the last week or so. The combination of stress and working out at night has kept me from getting to sleep till 2 or 3 in the morning. Then I’m so tired when I get home from work I take a nap on the couch, which only adds to my trouble of getting to sleep later, it is a vicious circle.

I’ve stopped working out for a few days to see if that will help, last night it did not. I took another nap today, but hope I can get some much needed rest tonight. When I am this tired I am useless at work, and I think it is starting to show, which is no good. I need to pick up my game and start getting things done.

I need to work a couple of weekend days to build up some comp time for my vacation at the end of the year. However if I am having this much trouble getting work done during the week, you can imagine my trouble on the weekend.

I try and clear my mind when I lay my head down to rest, which seems to be my biggest problem. I can’t seem to stop my mind from running. Plus my bed seems to be lumpier than ever these days. I think I may try reading before bed tonight and see how that goes.
