Total Time I slept: 2 Hours and XX Minutes

Last night was a hellish night of sleep.  It was Easter Sunday so I ate plenty, drank Espresso, and had a coffee after 10pm with some friends.  I ordered a decaf coffee but maybe it was regular?

Hopped in bed around 1:45 because I had to be up for 8:00am, and figured I would get around 6 hours of sleep, but that didn’t happen. I ended up tossing and turning, and was in a daze most of the night.  Half alseep, but enough to be conscious and know that I wasn’t getting rest. I tried to get my mind off stuff but it wandered anyways.  I woke up a little hot at one point so I pulled the covers off.

I remember around 5:00is I was dozing off for maybe 30 minutes and then remember looking at the clock a few times around 6:00am.  By 7:30 I was awake and was trying to get some sleep, but I knew I had to be up.  Ended up getting up and started my day.

Lesson learned, don’t drink Espresso later afternoon Sundays, and definitely don’t drink ANY type of coffee at night.
