Things To Do When Awake at 2am

So, this morning (at 2am) I was wide awake (thus is my life) and it got me to thinking about things I can do at 2am, that do not bother my neighbors. Here is a partial list of some good things to do in the wee hours of the morning.

1. Pray- one of my favorite activities no matter what time it is

2. Read the Bible- another anytime activity

3. Read a book- I love to get lost in a good story

4. Dust- quiet, uses some energy and is pragmatic

5. Decorate for Christmas

6. Wash dishes- I've been known to wash clean dishes, just for the therapy of the activity.

7. Take a bath with a relaxing bubble bath like chamomile (sp?)

8. Get online and read blogs or send out e-mails- it is always nice to stay in touch with people. Email people you generally don't

9. Play with my cat- one of my favorite activities any time of day, she is such a sweetie pie. I love my Queens.

10. Work on the card catalog for my library- when else would I have time, but when I should be sleeping? And it needs to get done, so I can feel better about loaning out books.

11. Reorganize my closets and dresser- the repetitive nature of the activity can help woo the sandman.

And last but not least....

12. Journal- journaling and working on my book is something that I love to do and it is hard to find time during normal hours to get the work done that I want to.

IF this list does not inspire you in the wee hours, just e-mail me, because I have lots of practice being up at this time and I have MANY more suggestions!
