Today I am grateful that I got a good night's sleep last night. The night before I tried just taking Nyquil, which, coupled with my sleep disorder, usually makes for a coma-like night's sleep. But I slept terribly and had an awful headache during and after I slept. So last night I tried something new; instead of taking Nyquil, I tried a combination of Afrin, ibuprofin (for the apparent teeth clenching I was doing mid-sleep), and Vicks Vaporub. Oh, and the kids slept all night, too! (Thanks, guys!)
Ahhhh, what a wonderful night's sleep! Seriously, I slept so soundly that I didn't move at all during the night. How do I know this, you ask? Well, I woke up covered in sweat. Gross, yes, but I fell asleep on my back with all my covers on, creating a sort of seal against the cold of my bedroom. Usually I roll to my right side and break that seal, but last night I stayed firmly on my back and kept all that hot air in. (Plus, I didn't wake up with my shoulders sore from sleeping on them funny or my right arm asleep.)
So woo hoo! I slept well! I hope you did, too!
Have a wonderful day!
