Afternoon Everyone,

No dreams last night I’m afraid to say. Probably because I had them all the night before. There was so much to tell you about I had to write it twice! However, I do have some things to write about that probably has a lot to do with insomnia.

Even though I didn’t have any dreams last night, I’m still going to write a post about Not Sleeping!

Literally I have been wide awake for the past 11 nights. I don’t know why I’m not sleeping. At first I put it down to my Granny being ill for such a long time, then she passed away. For a few days after she passed, I still felt her presence. The night she died, I dreamed about being told about her death, only to find her in the house telling me there had all been a mistake and that she was ok. A day later or so I saw a flash of bright light in my eyes. It was only for a split second, but it was the whitest, brightest light I had ever seen!

Then one morning a few days later, I saw a white feather. It was quite small, but again it was pure white! It was attached to a shrub right next to where I was sitting. It was blowing gently in the wind. It looked like it was wiggling trying to get my attention. It certainly did!

Another night, I had the flash of white light again. This time the light was a lot smaller in my eyes. In actual fact, it only flashed in the corner of my left eye. The light had a very bright middle and was quite hazy round the edges. I’m pretty sure this is my Granny, letting me know she is always with me.

The next few nights I was wide awake. I had nothing on my mind. I wasn’t worried about anything, I wasn’t thinking about anything. I was just awake! Usually it’s noises that keep me awake, but I have been in a room by myself, there were no unusual sounds, nothing tapping or clicking to keep me awake. I just don’t know!

Most people would say it’s sugar or caffeine that does it. I did have some donuts one night, but then I have them every Wednesday and they haven’t stopped me sleeping before.

Last night was my worst night overall. So much so, I ended up having to take a tablet that I’ve used in the past for nerve pain. I know it makes me very drowsy, but it does make me feel like 'utter shite’ the next day. I have to say after being awake from 11pm all the way to 4:30am I had no alternative but to take it. I’m glad I did as it did knock me out around 6am. I eventually woke up just before 10am! The thing is I do feel like crap today. I know I have to go out and do a bit of shopping. I think I’m going to hit the caffeine hard!

Even though there were no dreams here, I still hope you found my read still interesting. Hopefully I will get some shut eye tonight and I will have some wonderful dreams to tell you all about.

If you enjoyed this, why not read my diary.
