Sleep

Okay, so I’ve written about this a number of times that I am NOT a morning person and MS is a huge sleep depriver! I usually do not fall asleep until after 1:00 a.m. and I am up around 645 during the week. I usually get 4 to 5 interrupted hours of sleep.

However, last night, I fell asleep a little after 1 a.m. as usual but I didn’t wake up until after seven a.m.! I felt really good this morning! On Saturdays, I do not watch GMFB Weekend and instead come over and sit in my kitchen as my Mom brews her cup of coffee as I drink my Kiefer. Last week, just after I finished my Kiefer, I wheeled to the mouth of my kitchen and asked my Mom for a shake because she had the refrigerator open.

As she handed me my shake, she looked at me, and told me, “I don’t like your face.” I was pretty groggy and it was too early for me to answer her. It took most of our morning routine for me to ask her why she didn’t like my face. She told me that she didn’t like how pained it looked. I told her that I really hurt!

During last week, I told Sean a number of times that my Nom told me that she does not like my face. We both started to laugh but my Mom was kind of upset at that and she told me that she didn’t like the pain in my face! This morning, I didn’t feel the pain showing on my face and I think that was because I get so much sleep!

I’m not going to say that this will happen to me every Saturday morning but it feels pretty good right now that it happened to me this Saturday morning! Michigan’s dominating win probably helped with that as well.

My Mom asked me if Michigan State plays today at one just like Michigan. My answer to her was simple. “I don’t care!” And then I started to laugh! She told me that the only reason she asked is because Jonah goes there and I told her that I knew that. After Michigan’s excellent win, State was playing Indiana on the same channel right after. I listened to the postgame about Michigan but then I couldn’t bring myself to watch State play! I changed the channel. It would be really cool to have another night’s sleep like it did last night but I’m not going to hold my breath! I know that a night of sleep like I had last night is EXTREMELY rare and few and far between but I will take it whenever I can!
