What was your best day of the week last week and why? Yesterday was pretty nice, even though I had to be up before dawn for work. Work was just busy enough with a lot of nice customers. After work, I got to spend a little time with The Hubbs before he had to go to work. Then I spent the rest of the evening with Danny – he’s learned to say “Hello” and give high-fives. So cute!
What’s the longest you’ve ever gone without sleep? About three or four days. A few years ago, I went through a pretty bad patch in regards to my depression and anxiety. I had a few too many panic attacks and took to avoiding sleep. The less sleep I got, the more anxious I was, until it seemed like I couldn’t control anything. My OCD got out of control and I was checking locks and the stove three or four times every hour. It got very ugly in the end and I had to get help. I read somewhere that you can go about 264 (?) hours without sleep before your body completely shuts down and you die. That’s a morbid thought.
Is how old you look and/or how old you feel right now different from your actual age? At the moment, I feel much younger than I am despite the “fine lines” creeping up on me around the eyes. “Fine lines” be damned! :)

Spending time with your Hubbs and Danny sounds like a great day.
My hubby is bipolar and there are times where he’ll be up two days and then sleep for hours and hours afterward. I can’t imagine going 2, 3 or 4 days without sleep and 264 hours (11 days) without sleep sounds impossible.
Lol, I agree, those “fine lines” be damned is right!
