Question to myself

Oh why is it I sleep through the insanely loud horrible noise of my alarm clock, but those tiny sounds that are around me are the ones that wake me up?

Kim from Happy Accidents sent me here. I visited your Esty shop. WOW! Really nice work you do. Very stylish. Love the eyes and lips. Your use of color is unique.

I once was a member of an art council, so I know the struggles of any artist.

Enjoyed my visit here.

My blog is new - Wiser By The Wrinkle - a 50+ woman takes on technology.

Good question — and I can relate... happily stumbled across your lovely blog and amazing shop because "Im Afraid I Cant Help It" is on the fp right now — congrats! Terrific talent you are.

Oh I get you honey... it's not the dog barking.. but the babies snorts that wake me... weird that our brain has fickle triggers

Are you worried aobut something or have lots on your mind? I am sure someone as creative as you has a lot of ideas circulating at all times. I sleep like a baby now but it wasnt always the case.

I tried everything (no drugs though). Finally I started mediating and it did the trick I found that I wasnt relaxing enough before bed!

Hope things improve Leigh.

for me, its the tiniest bit of light. I can't fall asleep in the complete quiet.

Due to the fact you know its the alarm and you don't want to get up?

Unknown said...

- Lilly you know me well :) I just don't let myself relax and get to a decent sleep hour. The good news is I hit the pillow hard and fall asleep quickly, the bad news is the struggle in the morning.

-Chris, you are right, perfectly said. :)

this caused me to laugh out loud. this is exactly my problem, too.

it is a conundrum!

I can sleep through just about anything, at any time of day, with two exceptions. My neighbours fights are epic, they wake me every time! And planes...I simply cannot sleep on planes, no matter how long the flight.

lol
I completely understand but sadly have no answer for you. It's just one of those things...

Haha-that is SO true! I never thought of that!

Because you're kind of used to the noise.

But the tiny sounds can vary. I think it has something to do with different frequenties.

I always fall asleep on the couch / bed when watching a movie and ALWAYS wake when during the credits-part......
