Sleep is for the week (a whole one)
What a crazy couple of days.
We have not long returned to “normal” life and are now living in level 1 of the scottish roadmap, back to society as it was and already we are exhausted.
In the past few days alone, discussions with everyone and the issues are the same. We are all knackered. I’m pretty sure I’m not alone, it’s nice having things to do, but after having tasted the sweetness of nothingness in life, I really want it back. I don’t mean forever, but even a day or two each week where everyone has no obligations to do anything.
We would probably need another whole day to see people we wanted to see, and then that would leave us with 2 work days and a weekend.. Ideal
A nap may actually solve the issue. In fact I’d even settle for an hour or 2 extra hours of sleep each night.
I’ve spent a little time looking into dreams and meanings or more like the reason why we dream, like literally is there a purpose. There’s a theory that dreams allow us to deal with and fix problems from reality in a different plane so to speak. This makes the most sense for me spending so much night being awoken at 4:30am with the sweats and a pounding heart.
I’m sure most people have experienced them, the ones that you wake from and it feels life changing almost. Infact its like finishing a really intense book and not being able to differentiate your realities. The last book I think I did this with was “The hunger games” set which is a bit sad, because that means the last time I enjoyed a decent book was when I was about 16…
I imagine that’s because my interests became more of an exciting/ intoxicating nature in reality.
Anyway the most recent dream that left me annoyed and awake at 4 am was something I cannot figure out. If I apply the theory that I’m problem solving then what the hell was this?
In a field with the kids, we end up on a magic mudslide obstacle course like tough mudder and it turns out to be run by a cult of creepy old guys watching people get slaughtered on the course and if they make it through they capture them at the end.. Oh and there’s a volcano or huge ass fireworks in the background.
I have no idea what it’s all about, but if you see it on the news in the next few months you can officially rename me as a prophet..
On a lighter note we picked up a keyboard from my grandparents (who have anything you could ever want, mostly hidden in dark corners of their house we never knew existed) and taught my kids how to play the keyboard tonight and my eldest made his first song and recorded it. He’s 6, and we figure out chords by matching them to colours.
Not bad for an hour and not going to lie, I’m pretty proud of his effort and ballsyness putting it out there.
First proper productive thing I’ve done in weeks apart from hanging up my clothes that have been lying in a clean heap for about 3 weeks.
