Georgia

Well I came to realize something while I was on my last visit home to Michigan this past week.  I thought I was well on my way to getting over the heartache of moving out of our Michigan home and relocating in Georgia.  But as we had what will most likely be our last big party at our Michigan house (Braylen’s B-Day) I had this sick type feeling in my stomach about our house.  What I came to understand is that I wasn’t really getting over the move but that I had this false security with Jodi and Braylen still calling Michigan home.  Of course I still have a empty feeling about not being close to the family but I thought I was getting over the house move.

Something else that has started to become a big problem for me in Georgia.  I CAN’T GET A GOOD NIGHT SLEEP!!!!!  I have always had a rough time with sleep on Sunday nights due to thinking about the upcoming work week.  But over the past month or so I find myself more and more struggling to get a good night sleep.  It will take me some nights about 2-3 hours to fall asleep.  Usually I can fall asleep in about 15 minutes but not now.  I find myself just having my mind wander about work, the whole Georgia situation, and of course my family back home.  Yesterday I got up early went to church, headed into work for a few hours.  I then went home for a little bit and thought that I needed to keep busy so I wouldn’t get down about not being home.  So I went to the local Par 3 golf course and played a round after sitting out a 30 minute Georgia downpour.  When I got back to the apartment I had some dinner, cleaned up the apartment, and talked to Jodi until about 9:15PM.  I went to bed around 10PM and tossed and turned for 2 hours.  I finally got out of bed and tried reading a book for about 30 minutes.  I still had no luck falling asleep and got up again and watched some TV.  Well as it turned out I tried one more time to fall asleep and was no successful.  So as of 7:00AM this morning, I have not had any sleep since Sunday morning at 6:00AM.

 Its going to be a long day today.
