Our Tapestry
Jun. 16, 2008
Settling in

A new house means new routines, new schedules and new systems along with the new neighbours and other obvious new things. For me, it also means no sleep. I am not sure why but when I move into a new place I don't sleep well which usually means that I get my days and nights switched around for awhile.

My sweet husband tries to be understanding but being the type who falls asleep even BEFORE his head hits that pillow he doesn't actually 'get' that I can't sleep.

So here I sit at 7AM. I haven't slept yet and I am determined to get through this day and switch myself back around to a more socially acceptable lifestyle. Society dictates that unless you are in a rock band you are supposed to sleep at night and be relatively awake during the day. SO, being the kind of person who considers the dictates of our culture to be of utmost importance, I will make myself get through... at least until naptime!

Bring on the JAVA!!!

My husband is like you in the sense of sleeping. He has a hard time sleeping at night when we move as well. However since we've been here for over a year, he is finally starting to sleep better. I like your blog. You have a beautiful family.
