This whole not sleeping thing sucks...

Oh my gosh yes. I've been up since 6 and I am not a morning person. Toddler climbed into bed with us at 2 something, after we went to bed around 1, and he has been flailing his legs on top of me, and I keep tossing them off, and it has been impossible to sleep.

But I did fall back asleep around 5...

And had a nightmare about my husband emotionally cheating with his ex, and trying to make me think it wasn't weird or insane or anything that they wanted us to all go look at property together, and they kept ignoring my protests about it until I spoke up loud in front of an auction group that "what am I gonna do with you on this 1.6 acre farm, chain you up in the yard??" and when my husband pulled me to the side I basically had to beg him to stop all this madness, and he was saying he had her in our lives because he never did anything to treat himself, and we had this huge fight about how ex girlfriends can't be treats for us...

It's all related to issues we worked through in marriage counseling well over a year ago. He hasn't done anything to make me scared. The other day I was going deep through my screenshots album in my phone and found screenshots I took of their text conversations that made me think the worst, and it just brought back a flood of insecurity... ugh. I really honestly trust him and our marriage is in an amazing place right now, it just sucked to remember the time when it was crumbling to pieces in front of our eyes. One of his best friends just finalized his divorce and found out that at least while they were separated, she was at least emotionally cheating on him, and we both have done crap like that to each other... I guess it's just been something that keeps coming up and it keeps making me really sad. So I've been sitting here for 2 hours just trying to get my brain to remember that the events that made me have those dreams on a regular basis are deep in our past.

TL;DR I am so tired and I can't sleep because my toddler is between us in our queen size bed, kicking me and rolling over on me, and I'm too scared of revisiting a dream I had that I've had way too many times before... ugh
