Toora, loora, li
Toora, loora, loora"

I learned this lullaby when I had my little one. I'd listen to the lullabye station online the whole night. It rocks him to sleep... and whenever I hear this song, I can still vividly remember how tiny he used to be just barely seven pounds and such a milk monster. He was such a dream come true.
I could go on and on about my little one who will turn four in three months... but this entry is not about him. It's about the power of the lullaby. I am yearning for those moments when I can sleep just like that. I hate this insomnia attacks, it's crazy. Mental gaps here and there, and I'm such a sloth during the day. It made me out of my cycle again hahay!
Before I had my little one, insomnia was me. My mind would wander far and wide, exploring ideas after ideas, visualizing the future, organizing an event to the smallest details, and whatnots. All these disappeared the moment I got an epidural and push for about half an hour a tiny screaming boy! He normalized my bio clock. The exhaustion of being mom and all that jazz in the household, was enough to plop me to bed before I even know it. And I terribly miss that!
I get angry when I sleep late, because I wake up weird and cranky. I hate it because I can't tick off my to dos. I used to live on about eight hours of sleep, I just have to have that and I guess that was healthier. Now, I can do that if I sleep very very early! But how? My business needs me at night and sometimes it's just the elixir I need not even wink until the sun begins to shine again.
You know, I'm addicted doing business online. I'm not busy blogging, I'm busy chatting, catching up with friends, and getting to know my clients more. It's where I brew ideas after ideas... but I just have to stop. Yes, Chelo you're very right, we are human!
Kapoy na ko Lord!

Hmmm...what can I say? We have the same problem.
I'm thinking of getting rid of my online biz so I have fewer things to do online...but I'm afraid I will find something else to do that will keep me there!
