I’m so bummed.
One of my very closest friends here in Colorado Springs has just found out that they’re moving for her husband’s job. We knew it was a possibility, but I’m really sad now that I know its true. My kids are going to be really upset when they figure out that their friends are leaving, since they have kids about the same age as mine. Its such a bummer.
Last night I had trouble sleeping and kept waking up gasping for air. At first I thought it was panic attacks, but I couldn’t figure out why. Then I thought that maybe it was an asthma attack. Then I realized that I’m stupid and only breathe through my nose, and my nose was stuffy, so I wasn’t breathing very well. I’d concentrate on mouth breathing until I fell asleep, then I’d start nose breathing and gasp for air. I took some Robutussin and propped myself upright with pillows on our big fluffy couch in the front room and I was finally able to fall asleep. It was no fun at all though. I think that I may have been having asthma or anxiety issues that were compounding it. Whatever it was, it sucked.
So now I’m trying to decide if I should go work out. Running usually helps to clear out my sinuses, so maybe I’ll give it a whirl. I just cleaned the house, so I can go do fun stuff now I’ll probably go to the park with my friend later and lament over the fact that she’s leaving me. Oh, and I have to go by the library because I reserved Run the Rockies : classic trail runs in Colorado’s Front Range and its ready. I’m looking forward to finding some new trails!
My mind seems hazy this morning. I guess that’s what happens when you don’t sleep well, huh?
