Sunday, April 4

Estimated time to fall asleep: 5+ min

Approx. amount of time awake: just enough to notice that M came to bed

Estimated amount of sleep: 4 hours

Stress: remembering to do my sleep journal. my sleep schedule causes stress between me & M. Still worried about money ’cause I’ve committed to a year of personal training and I shouldn’t have – got caught up in the sales pitch on a “high” day. Scott & I both need to get in and get checked out for sleep problems (husband thinks, from observation and research, that we both have non-24-hour circadian rhythm disorder) and we’ve got to keep Scott in school (how?!!!) long enough to be diagnosed. Mammegram was clear but doc was a recheck in May. I have Federal Jury Duty in May and I’m not looking forward to being in LA by 8 a.m. 25th anniversary this year and NO WHERE NEAR being able to fit in my wedding dress. (It looked good on Sam!) Cruise in November and hoping to be down but am not attending the gym :-( — these weren’t too bad today. Frustrated that Scott didn’t come to dinner, that I woke up late to go to dinner, and that I didn’t sleep longer tonight.

Medications (what & when): – should have daily: BC, Valproic Acid, Prozac, tums

Naps (number, time of day, length): at Mom’s, I’ll have to ask M how long/time

Appetite (or loss of) during the day: jelly beans, sweedish fish, ham, potatoes, green salad, jello salad, roll (2), corn

Exercise: (gym at 3:30 p.m. 5-10 min warm up, weights, 30 min cardio) nothing, foot hurts (blister)

Drinks: alcohol & caffeinated (number & when): no

Rate how you felt today: (1 – Not very good; 2 – Somewhat tired; 3 – Fairly alert; 4 – wide awake) – 3 mostly until after dinner

Irritability: (0 – None; 1 – Some; 2 – Moderate; 3 – Fairly High; 4 – High): maybe a 1 – I’m on a bit of a high

and my own questions: Lights Out at 6:45 p.m. / alarm at 5:10 a.m./ slept like the dead until 10:15 – out of bed at 10:30
