I dont know exactly why I have been so tired lately.  I think, at least in part, it is because of working the night shift last friday night and waiting up for Jim to get home from classes. 

I had been looking forward to last night because it was the only night this week that we were both home.  (including tonight and tomorrow night)  It was Evan's day off too.  So Evan (and Colin!) came over last night too.  At first I was a little upset that they would be coming over.  But I realized that they want to hang out with Jim and dont see him often either.  (And I was definitely shocked when Colin walked through the front door.)  So I quickly got over it. 

They had started playing Dungeons and Dragons.  I was sleepy so I decided to go take a nap for a while.  I figured I would sleep for 2-3 hours.  That is about normal for me. (I feel like I should be talking about a small child!)  Nope. I didnt wake up until Jim came upstairs to go to bed - at about 12:15!!  That meant my 'nap' was 6 hours long.  lol.   I guess I needed it!!  I decided I should just go back to sleep because of how late it was.  That took a little bit, because my body was like 'ok time to get going!'  It was nice being able to cuddle into Jim - even if I did keep tossing and turning because I couldnt get comfortable enough to go to sleep again. 

So this morning, before I got out of bed, I decided I would get up earlier than normal so I could shower.  I really should.  My options were shower, so that my hair wasnt so gross (I still dont stink and am not really dirty, other than my nasty hair) OR I could cuddle with Jim for a little while longer.  I chose Jim. My excuse?  I am spending the night at Jenn's because tomorrow is auction.  When I get home tomorrow night after auction, I am going to go pretty much straight to bed because I am working another night shift at the camp on Saturday night (midnight-8am).  So if I didnt get all of my cuddling in this morning, I would have to wait until Sunday morning for more.  And even then it wont be much because Jim will have to get up to go to work!  So my hair is up in a ponytail and I really dont care!  I think I made the right decision!!

I just hope I can get enough sleep by about 3pm Sunday so that I can get up and make dinner and enjoy the evening with Jim!  Even though I didnt get to really spend time with him last night, I like just knowing he is there.  It made me sleep better and makes me overall feel better!  I have gotten spoiled over the last year with both of us working day shifts.  I know that school is worth it, it is still just taking some adjusting for me.  At least it is only a year!    Then he is all mine again!
