up late again

Tuesday, May 23, 2006

I work best at night. I've been a confirmed night-owl since well before I met and married my hubby. Poor guy - he had no idea what he was in for. Ha!

I've accomplished the following amazing feats... all in the middle of the night.

1. I've rearranged entire rooms in our home
2. repainted the living room
3. baked cinnamon rolls and a myriad of other baked goods
4. spring-cleaned the family room/living room/kitchen
5. done 5 loads of laundry
6. developed, actually made, and then bottled and labeled a new aromatherapy oil product
7. countless websites were finished in the wee hours of the morning

I suffered from chronic insomnia for many MANY years and eventually, I gave up on sleep and decided to make something of my inability to sleep. Hubby told me once that he used to cringe when he woke up, wondering what he would find when he walked out of our bedroom.

Hey! If you can't sleep, why waste time just lying there? That's a sure way to slowly (or quickly for some of you) go completely insane.

So, here I am again. 2am. Working on a website. But I'm not alone. Nopers, my poor sleeping habits have rubbed off on the other half and he's in here working with me. We'll likely be up til 3 or 4 working. And once our son goes to his grandparent's house next week, then the real fun begins. With just the two of us here, we'll be up all night many many nights in a row.

Ahh, the joys of working for yourself and setting your own hours!
