Brain Circles

Last night I was awake at 0345 because my brain was running in circles - round and round and round.

It amazed me the number of topics that floated through:

• Lyrics and the chorus of 'Rock the Boat' (a 70's disco song)

• Details on a work project

• Upcoming weekend plans

• Replaying the winning goal in Thursday night's hockey game (Let's Go Blues!!)

• Visualizing scenes from the last couple of books I've read

• ...and on and on and on.

This is not the first night that this has happened. And, it seems to be happening more and more.

Why does that happen?  Is it insomnia? Do I have too much going on in my life? I wish I knew the answers.

I do have vacation time scheduled in less than a month. Hopefully that time off and away from the everyday will solve this issue.

Anyone else have this going on? Suggestions for help sleeping?
