Master took this really gorgeous picture during a dust storm the other day. I just thought I'd post it here.

Sleep is highly overrated

I haven't posted here in a while. It's been since March apparently. I've been posting over at livejournal, and on Kitchen Shaman. I'm not taking this site down, it's just more work to edit all the html myself. For a while there was satisfaction in having control over the look and feel of my own website, and then I got caught up doing other things.

I have to do laundry and dishes today and it's late. I've been having a problem getting up early enough to get things done. I want to paint more, and write more, and work on the business plan, but it seems that I can't get out of bed before 10:00 a.m. I am due in at work at 2:00 pm., and that doesn't leave alot of personal time. I'm not sure what to do about this problem. I thought once winter went away I'd be able to get up earlier and accomplish daily tasks. That doesn't seem to be working.

So what do I do about all this sleeping? I don't need all the sleep. I need to get things done. I'm not physically or mentally exhausted, I'm just sleeping. I don't need to sleep half the day. Most people don't get this much sleep. I'm upset with myself and so is Master.

Sleep is highly overrated, and I don't like a behavior that has this kind of negative affect on me. I'm spending time berating myself, when I could be using that time to be more productive.

How do you break a negative cycle once it starts?

I did this in Kansas too. I finally pushed through it, but the behavior started again. It's a willpower issue. I know I can get up, I know I can accomplish daily tasks. Why can't I get out of bed?
