Lack of sleep and dumb things are funny

I seem to go in cycles with my sleep habits, honestly I think a lot of people do this from time to time. If I get too much sleep a migraine usually hits, punishment for the over abundance. If I get 6-7 hours of sleep at night I'm just right. I've never been a "I need my sleep" kind of girl.

But I lately I seem to have gotten into a not so fun cycle with my sleep and I go from feast to famine. I get my 7 hours of sleep and then a couple of days later I'm struggling because I only get 4-5 hours of sleep. Yes I tend to get a tad bit sleep deprived and then I'm on the struggle bus. My head is foggy and I literally feel like I could curl up on the hard floor and fall asleep somedays-until it's time to go to bed, then I'm wide awake, but that's a whole other story. I'm worse than a kid, I know. I try drinking ice cold water or coffee to get me through the sleep deprived days.

Lack of sleep is often coupled with a case of the giggles. The last round of sleep deprivation for me prompted such a case of the giggles with a coworker and it was over something really dumb! And because I was tired it hit me funny, dumb funny and we laughed and giggled. But that was good for my soul! I always manage to fumble my way through a day and usually manage only a couple of really dumb mistakes. I'm glad I don't have a job where I'm not operating heavy equipment or power equipment, because I'd be wreaking things, hurting or running people over on those sleep deprived days.

So here's to a new week, one that I hope is filled with plenty of sleep and plenty of laughter and giggles to make you smile! Have a good one!
