Day 18

Ho-hum, more sleep weirdness.....

I went to bed really early last night, I was asleep by 9pm but I woke up about 3 hours later and couldn't get back to sleep so I got up, drunk a cup of coffee, made myself some porridge and got on with fixing some problems with my poor neglected computer. I spend so much time fixing everyone else's computers, mine gets left out so I had a nice leisurely potter about in the wee small hours and a soup sachet about 3am.

By 7am, the hunger and lack of sleep were really getting to me. I didn't want to have lunch yet because my sleep problem is one of the things that really mess up my eating habits. I knew that if I added another meal to the day I might be able to stay up 'til a 'normal' time, if not I wouldn't last the day, so I took a risk went back to bed. I managed to grab another 3 hours kip and woke up just as boyfriend got home from work. He made me a big mug of proper coffee which tided me over until lunchtime when I treated myself to the first shake I've had for days! I had a bowl of salad with a little drop of no fat vinaigrette then a toffee and walnut sachet blended with lots of ice.

Due to my sleep and meal juggling, I managed to have my dinner at a proper dinner time and I don't mind admitting, I'm going to bed at an embarrassingly early hour and I'm planning on sleeping for a solid 12 hours.
