7am
what is it about the time between 7am and 8am that makes my body get some of its most restful sleep? i can toss and turn all night long, but as soon as 7am comes around, i drop straight into a deep rem sleep and wake rested.
my most vivid dreams perform during this one hour. perhaps the reason i wake so rested?
my puppy has not yet perfected the art of bladder control - or rather her bladder is so tiny that she cannot hold it for over six hours during the night. oddly, the 8+ hours during the day she holds it fine.
she woke me at 5.30 this morning with the painful need to relieve herself. after about a half hour, i obliged and let her out. half hour (ish) later b let her out.
so i merely dozed from 5.30 until 7 when my alarm went off. which i promtly turned off and rolled over onto b's pillow and dropped into a deep sleep.
i finally got up around 7.20, only to lie on the couch moaning at my missed restful sleep. b left for work shortly after; i remained on the couch in my underwear and slept. had to make myself get up at 7.40 because i felt myself slipping into the blessed rem.
good thing i didnt have to be to work at 8 this morning. why? had to bring lacey to the vet after 8. shes getting her plumbing rerouted. puppy factory is closed for good. gone out of business. i have to pick her up tonight - shes not going to be inmuch of a playful mood, i tell you.
