I want more sleep. I lust for it. When I wake up, I look forward to the time when I can go back to sleep. Sometimes I feel like life gets in the way of my sleep. I never seem to get enough of it.
I slept away a depression my freshman year of college. And though untreated depression can be dangerous, I definitely feel like sleep was my coping mechanism. Sleep got me through it. When I look back on that time, it isn't too painful because I slept through a great deal of the sadness.
I was completely exhausted during my pregnancy with Canon. I took a pillow to work and napped during lunch. And I was free to crawl into bed as soon as I got home from work and sleep until morning.
Now sleep is limited. I'm always tired. Since I'm spending an entire month blogging on the theme "want," sleep is at the top of my list and definitely had to be my first post.
What about you? Is sleep a luxury or just a state of bodily rest necessary for survival?
And now I'm off to sleep.

I completely understand how you feel! I love to sleep, but there just aren't enough hours in the day to get enough of it!!

I ABSOLUTELY AGREE WITH YOU! Dustin's birthday gift to me this year was a night's stay at the Four Seasons. One night of un-interrupted sleep in a fantastically comfortable bed...I could not have asked for anything better! That was almost two week's ago and I'm still flying high from the experience :).
Sleep is my biggest desire. My bed time 8:00, def by 8:45. Riley and I climb in the bed and we are out. I get more done in the am. Like now. Its 7:00 am and I have folded clothes, showered, dress, gotten everyone ready. 12 hours of sleep is ideal, but 8 or 9 will do.
Maybe this sounds sad but my favorite time of the day is getting into bed at night- this childlike thrill comes over my body and all I can do is smile real big!
Sleep just gets in the way of all the stuff I need to do. I like it, but I usually only get about 5 hours a night. I'd put it in the necessity column.
an absolute must! I need a good 7 hours. I'm in bed by 9pm most nights because I'm an early riser.
I love sleep. It's in the luxury category for me. I absolutely love it but honestly do not get enough due to my own accord. I could go to bed early every night and get plenty of sleep, but I also cherish my evening down time with my husband too much. Once Bella goes to bed, we finally have some much needed time to ourselves.
the only thing that wakes me is my children. otherwise i could sleep my whole life away.
i hate sleeping. it is a struggle to go to bed before 3am and i can't do it without sleeping pills. but i hate waking up more than i hate sleeping so i guess that says something!
Sleep is the greatest thing ever. I love it.
Ever since I remember, sleep has been like a drug to me. I would give anything for just one more minute of it. It's the closest thing I can imagine to what a true addiction must feel like.
