Here I lie all snugged in bed,
counting sheep jumping above my head
hoping like mad to get some sleep.

One sheep
Two sheep

No wait that was four sheep


Ugh... I can't take this ANYMORE!!!!!

Get out of bed,
walk the floor.

Another sleepless night in Michigan.

I liked this. By the end of it, I was sleepy and restless!

From the looks of this, Venus was pulling on more than the moon last night

But I've had a few nights like that myself...
and more than once!

I know this feeling well...could be the hint of spring in the air?
