I haven't been sleeping very well lately - my internal clock is confused, and almost every night I find myself wide awake into the wee hours. One of the effects I've noticed at times like this is that when I'm having difficulty sleeping at night, all the days seem to bleed together into one long succession of time.. it feels as if they lose their separateness and, in the context of that sensation, it becomes harder to view each day as a fresh/clean start.
As a result this blurring of the borders of my days, I tend to let longer pauses elapse before returning phone calls, doing the bills, blogging..because it doesn't seem like that long since the last time.
I know the sleeping difficulty is, with me, linked to stress, so it lets me know when I need to pay attention to how I'm handling things. There are several issues happening in our immediate corner of the world, and the sooner they get resolved, the sooner I'll be sleeping again!
The good news is, things seem to be coming to a head on several fronts and we should have solutions soon! I apologize that I can't give details at this point, but once I'm free to do so I will explain further.
Despite the intense circumstances, I have to say that I'm enjoying life very much lately!

Washing permanent marker off my 2 year old's face and stomach after a little 'tribal body marking' adventure
Realizing too late that 1 small teaspoon of brown sugar sirred into a bowl of oatmeal, when multiplied by three helpings, still equals one very revved up wild/fast/leaping 2 year old(which, by the way, resulted in the above marker situation..)
Driving through a blizzard under a large expanse of bright blue sky streaming intense golden light through the vineyards onto the road..
