Usually going to sleep helps me shut my brain off. During
the hours in which I am awake I am constantly thinking about what I need to get
done, I don't know if it is because I am a student and I am always thinking
about deadlines, or if it is just a mom thing that always worry about
everything. Probably both! Last night I couldn't even escape my busy brain in
sleep. I dreamt that I had my first teaching job; I went to school on the first
day and realized that I had written no lesson plans, and didn't know where the
classroom was. I think this goes back to me always feeling I am forgetting
something. For one of my classes I had to sit and do nothing for fifteen
minutes. I found myself thinking about all the things that I was going to do
after the time was up. I think my brain is wired to worry. That is the only
conclusion I can come to. Maybe I will have to work my way up to fifteen
minutes and try to train myself to do nothing and not worry for a short time
during the day. I’ll start tomorrow! I’ll keep you posted!
