Things I think about when I can't sleep
So I couldn't sleep last night because I took too long of a nap- I remember when I could take a long nap and still sleep at night- what happened? Anyway as I was laying in bed I remembered something that made me laugh out loud that I haven't thought about in years. When we lived in Korea when we were first married we slept on a blow up mattress. This blow up mattress had a small leak in it so we had to blow it up every night. Now keep in mind that our heat came from the floor so the mattress would be heated up at least at night- which I'm sure can't be good for a plastic blow up mattress. Now we were trying to save up money for a regular bed but Ken was making next to nothing so we had this blow up thing for a few months. Well, back in those days we did enjoy- how shall I say this- overindulgence in adult beverages so when we would come home after a night out we would both be somewhat intoxicated and it would be a big argument over whose turn it was to blow up the bed. There was many a morning when we would wake up with our bums on the floor from not blowing up the mattress properly. I was laughing about this but also about how stupid we were that we didn't have enough money for a bed but we sure did have money to go out drinking!! It also reminded me how much different our lives may have turned out had we not got ourselves together and what a blessing the gospel has brought to the life of our whole family. Oh, and I did get a bit of a reminder of why Ryker is the way he is!!
