Naptime.

I took a really good nap today. I had to wake up early to go to breakfast this morning and then head over to storage to get the rest of my furniture which I really needed! but I had to wake up early for that. And carry a bunch of furniture in the house. Then, I had to move it all around and attempt to organize it all. I have so much to do and finally have somewhere to organize my stuff at. But there's just too much!!! That was very overwhelming. It's a maze to try and get through my apt. It's just weird. So I was overwhelmed by all the stuff I had to do and I didn't even want to start it. Plus, I had a headache. I've had a lot of headaches lately which really sucks by the way. My pills are supposed to be working on that but they aren't anymore and I'm angry. It sucks having a headache everyday. But anyway.. today I layed down to take a nap after I called my gma. I used to be able to sleep things off. That's how I would deal with things because I slept anyway. Then I didn't have to deal with anything. Now whenever I get depressed or something.. I want to sleep! But I can't do that anymore! Ugh. I actually have to deal with life which is sucky sometimes. So I got tired because I was overwhelmed and getting mad about it. That's just what happens.. Usually I can't sleep though but I still lay there wishing I could sleep. But this time was different. I did get to sleep! :) I fell asleep at about 4:30. Then I woke up at 6. But I was still half asleep so I fell asleep again. Finally I woke up at 7. So it was a 2 1/2 hour nap!! My dad was also trying to take a nap so I called him to see how it went for him and he said he got a 15 minute nap. haha. I'm a professional napper. :)
I usually don't take naps though unless I have nothing to do all day. If I have to be somewhere within like 2 hours, I don't take a nap. After sleeping as long as I did and not being sure you would wake up, you're still cautious! And an alarm never used to be able to wake me up. So I don't even attempt to nap a lot if I have to do something that day. I wish I could just sleep for half an hour sometimes but that never works because I don't trust myself. Sometimes I do just need to lay there for a couple minutes though. I don't fall asleep but I need to rest my brain. So napping is an issue for me. When I used to watch Carter when he was a baby, I would wake up with him because Aamber would go to work at 5am. So I was always worried that I wouldn't wake up. But I mean.. I couldn't stay up all night. But luckily everytime he made a noise, I would wake up. It was annoying because even he just breathed loudly I'd wake up. But it was better than not waking up. But after all this time, I'm still cautious about it. So today I had NOTHING to do! So I went for it and got well rested. :)
But people always ask me if taking a nap during the day or even that late would make me stay up late. The answer is no. I can always use more sleep. It's midnight now. That's around the time I go to bed anyway. And I'm ready for bed again..
I love sleep. But on the other hand, I don't want to start sleeping again. I feel like I'm sleeping more than usual but maybe like just 2 hours more or something. That could be that I had a sinus infection and had been on cold pills and anti biotics for ever.. I'm taking my last ones tomorrow morning. I had to take 2 pills 3 times a day for the anti biotics. Did I mention I hate pills? Anyway.. back to napping.. I hope that I don't start sleeping again. I've just been feeling weird lately. Summer is usually a better time for me and my depression isn't that bad. But with the last couple sunny days we've had.. it hasn't helped at all. I still have no motivation and don't want to do anything. So depression combined with sickness.. that doesn't sound so great for me. I hate sleeping! And I love sleeping!
Anyway... I'm gonna go to bed. Hopefully I wake up before next week! haha. I'll probably sleep about 10- 12 hours. I've read on the KLS facebook that people think an episode of Kleine Levin Syndrome is 12 hours. That's sleeping like a normal person! Teenagers need extra sleep. I don't think I'm in an episode now because I sleep 12 hours. I get up and do what I have to do. Well not really.. but i get up. When I was in an "episode" I slept atleast 20 hours. and it seemed like it lasted forever. These people don't know how it really is if they think 12 hours a night is bad.. ugh. Ok I'm getting off topic again!

Good Night. :)
