I lie there awake
It is three in the morning
Counting sheep in vain
Last night was the same
But I told my friend Derrick
That I’d count ponies

Now I need to count ponies and try to get some sleep.
What works for you when you can’t sleep?

I also had a horrible night of sleep. I lost my purse Friday night. I only discovered it missing Sunday morning. I think it was stolen in the bar where we were. I loves that purse! I have to redo my driver’s license and cancel my bank card and get a new one. Grrrr!!!!!
Where’s the “sad” button when I need it? So sorry, DeDe! 🙁
I also follow Derrick and his amazing photos and stories of his daily adventures are a delight..
Sorry you were having a problem sleeping Jan.. For me I just breathe extra deeply and relax more with each deeper breath.. and it usually works, not always.. But these days I am sleeping better than once up a time.. <3
I’ll try that deep breathing. I did finally get 4 hours of uninterrupted sleep. Thank God!
Wonderful.. <3
Thank you so much, Jan 🙂
My pleasure! You bring so much joy to my day! <3
I have checked him out.. I have followed … and send you back a good nights sleep!
Thank you, your good wishes worked. I had 4 hours of uninterrupted sleep after I went back to bed. I’m glad you checked out Derrick’s post and added him to your following list. He is a delight! <3
Just like you!
Sometimes I try counting backwards from 100. Thanks for sharing and asking Jan.
Hmmm… thanks – I’ll have try that!
