Total Truth Tuesday

Have I mentioned I am a lifelong insomniac? I totally understand where Kai gets it from.

But, over the years I've come up with a creative solution for solving my insomnia troubles. It doesn't work all the time, but it is amazing how often it does work. And, it's weird and slightly embarrassing, so that is why it's this week's Total Truth Tuesday.

On nights when I can't sleep, I sleep in the opposite direction. Meaning, my feet at the headboard and my head at the footboard. Weird, I know.

My poor husband has woken up more times than he cares to admit with my feet in his face. But, if I absolutely can't sleep there is just something about switching positions that does the trick almost immediately.

In fact, it is some of the best sleep I ever get. I LOVE sleeping in the opposite direction. Have for years. And, I'm fairly certain this is not a common practice for "normal" people. Not that I have ever claimed to be normal...

That is so funny! I woke up the other morning on the opposite end of the bed... thing is, I don't remember getting there!

I haven't tried it recently, but that used to work wonders for me when I was a kid. I should try it again!

I have done that every once and while.. I think its just the fact of "switching" things up... makes you feel more comfortable.
