Sleep...

NOUN:
A natural periodic state of rest for the mind and body, in which the eyes usually close and consciousness is completely or partially lost, so that there is a decrease in bodily movement and responsiveness to external stimuli. During sleep the brain in humans and other mammals undergoes a characteristic cycle of brain-wave activity that includes intervals of dreaming.
A period of this form of rest.
A state of inactivity resembling or suggesting sleep; unconsciousness, dormancy, hibernation, or death.

Who knew it meant all that... I wish I could sleep... at least for more than 2 hours straight. As a lot of you know we are going through somewhat a hard time here. When I'm up and about during the day my thoughts don't wonder for the most part to our former General Contractor, mortgage companies, and the place we bought the home. But at night it's all I can think about.

At this point I'm getting so very tired. Not only from the lack of sleep (I get about 4 hours a night) but from thinking about it. And yes I'm praying, but it does seem the more I pray and give my cares to the Lord, the more I'm "attacked". It seems I'm in an almost consent state of tears from everything. The littlest thing can and does set me off in frustration, irritation, and finally crying.
