Insomniac

It's 3:36 am. I can't sleep; I think I have insomnia. Right now the light is so bright, I am only looking out of one eye, that is squinted. My sleeping schedule has been so weird lately. I am listening to "Somewhere over the Rainbow" by Iz (it's the song Mark and I had our first dance to). I love this song, it's so beautiful. It's the perfect mix between my love for the Wizard of Oz and beach-style music. I think it is so well written because it's such a simple song, that allows you to dream; I'm mean, how the heck are my troubles going to melt like lemon drops? What the heck is a lemon drop anyways? I guess it doesn't matter, it'll be melting!

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby

Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true

Some day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?
Some day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?

If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?

-PASSED OUT on the couch- Yes, this is normal!!!-

I sing this song to Bella all the time. I imagine when we have children this will be the only song they'll ever hear. haha. Speaking of Bella...tonight Mark and I watched a movie (well, I fell asleep) but when the movie was over, we were going to bed. Like I have said in previous posts, Bella is spoiled rotten and gets carried to bed and tucked in every night. So tonight we thought it would be funny to see if she would come to bed on her own...and she wouldn't!!! We called her name for 5 minutes, and no sign of The Bells. So I walked into the living room and she's laying on her blanket, probably thinking, "Are you kidding me? You KNOW I am NOT walking to bed!" So I picked her up, she passed out, and she was carried to bed...just like she is every night. haha...

Tomorrow, well today, Mark and I are headed up to Stockdale to spend sometime with the Holmes Family at Grandma Dorothy's house. I am so excited about going! Mark and I are taking our guns to do a little target practice in the country. I told Lisa that I was going to let her shoot my gun (that will be the cutest thing ever!) I am so excited!

Well, it's 4:33..... and still restless.
