Lauren over at the little things we do has a fun little blog topic that she does every Friday, join in! It's a cute way for your blog pals to learn some new things about you!
1. The last thing I do before going to sleep is put Johnson & Johnson's Bedtime Lotion on. *It's not just for babies anymore lol* No more melatonin, no more sleep meds, just bedtime lotion. It's amazing, knocks me out everytime and I sleep the whole night through.
2. When I can't sleep I toss and turn. I'll flip my pillows, fluff my blanket, whatever it takes to get comfy.
3. The first thing I do when I wake up is look out the window. I remember being little and starting this when it would snow out. I would wake up and look to see how much snow fell overnight. Now I love to see the sunshine, there's something very refreshing about starting a new day.
4. When I'm tired I get really cranky. Just like a kid. It starts with yawning then I know by 11 pm I have to start getting ready for bed (if I'm not out somewhere having fun) because once my head hits the pillow, I'm out.
5. My dream bedroom would be anything Shabby Chic. I was really upset when Rachel Ashwell's show ended but thank heavens she continued writing books and designing bedroom accessories and furniture! Everything Shabby Chic is very practical and soft. Its usually whites, soft pinks and yellows. I just bought white ruffle Shabby Chic cotton sheets from Target the other day and since then I've been sleeping like a baby. They are super soft. I love big beds with fluffy blankets and pillows, and lots of candles:o)
6. If I could wake up anywhere tomorrow morning it would be in North Carolina. I keep looking through pics from my vacation and wondering when I'll be back down there.
7. The longest sleep I've ever had was when I'm sick. I don't get sick that often at all because I take really good care of health. However, when I do get sick, the first thing I do is sleep. Usually I will sleep for almost 13 hours straight (yes, this has been done before) and I wake up feeling a million times better.
8. I sleep on my side most of the time. When I'm tossing and turning I'm all over the place, I usually end up on my back. I'm most comfortable on my side though.
9. When I sleep, I like to wear a t-shirt or tank top and cotton pj pants or shorts. In the winter I have to wear sweatpants because I get so cold at night (but we won't think about that now!).
10. My bedtime is usually 11 pm. You know you're getting old when you look at the clock and say "oh my gosh, it's only 9:30!? I'm exhausted!!"
I'm right there with you on #10 - if I'm still out at 9 I start getting ready to leave because otherwise I'll be up too late and won't want to wake up in the morning :)
ReplyDeleteYes girl, don't think about winter. ;) Can't believe August is just around the corner! :(
ReplyDeleteLOL When I am lotioning my toddler w/ that bedtime lotion, it does have a calming effect on both of us! We use the nighttime bubble bath, too. You could try it...
ReplyDeleteLove Rachel Ashwell, too!
Have a lovely weekend!
