Good morning Judy. Warning: this post might have TMI. Last night when I went to bed I had severe feet and like cramps, again! Probably from going to the gym without appropriate stretching (but thats another story). It prevented me from getting to sleep and I was walking around massaging my legs etc. However, even more importantly, it triggered one of my major concerns in life. What if I end up in a nursing home? I used to sleep in big T-shirts and panties and then one night when I couldnt sleep I thought hmmm I dont think theyre going to let me sleep in T-shirt and panties in a nursing home so I should learn to sleep in night gowns. And so I did. Last night I thought hmmm! If I was in a nursing home would I be able to get up, walk around and massage my legs or would I have one of those bed monitors? I have so many bed issues. The sheets have to have a certain texture ..... And no wrinkles, please. The blankets need to be just the right weight and come just to my chin, no more or less. I like the room dark and cool and quiet. I want a bottle of water and a bottle of caffeine free diet coke on my night table. I get up multiple times throughout the night and I like a motion detector night lite to guide me to the bathroom. I never worry about daytime life in a nursing home. And I dont really plan on going to one but in the dark, alone, unable to sleep the demons come out of the closet. So I start out not sleeping for one reason and remain awake because of my obsessive worries. I hope you had a good nights sleep and have a great day!
