Instant Realization

This morning I woke up only to realize that my phone (also my alarm) had died sometime during the night. After that finally registered in my half-awake brain, I also realized that this meant my alarm hadn't gone off. I frantically looked to the clock to check the time and realized it was an hour and a half past when I wanted to get up. I turned to my husband and said, "Ah man! I was supposed to get up at 7!" To which he sweetly replied, "Babe, you need your sleep."



And something clicked in my brain.

Realization one: When I fell asleep last night, I had two bars of battery left on my cell phone. If I fall asleep with only one...it will still make it through an entire night. But for some reason, last night it didn't make it with two...

Realization two: I was beyond exhausted yesterday. It was miserable.

Realization three: Everything happens for a reason.

Jess was right--I did need my sleep. And I felt so refreshed today.

Pure bliss.
