I get writing ideas just before going to sleep.
My brain starts putting words like mad and the end result is wonderful.
I got myself a notebook and a pen in my nightstand drawer for that purpose, but I am too tired to take it out and write - and I am also worried I might wake myself up and not be able to go back to sleep.
So many masterpieces lost to humanity!
I experienced an unexpected side effect of the hot weather. My kids are screamers. Who knew.
Well, I knew, of course, but I mean as in them running around and screaming.
Let me explain.
Because of the hot weather we started sleeping with our doors open. A very risky move, I agree. But necessary in this weather.
Which leads to my earlier statement about the kids being screamers. As in screaming in their sleep. I was jolted from my sleep in the middle of the night by one of the kids shouting at someone for a few seconds before silence descended again. Unfortunately, my heart would not calm down for a while.
I finally managed to doze off again only to be awaken at around 6 am by the other one talking loudly in their sleep, explaining to someone how misunderstood they were in this life. Funny, I know.
