Sometimes, when I can’t sleep, I make the number 4.
I do this with my legs. I put one foot under my knee, in an attempt to warm my feet — which in turn (usually) helps me fall back asleep.
Just throwing this out there, in case it helps anyone else who’s struggling with falling asleep. Melatonin probably works better — but making-a-4 is free!
Sally Garnatah writes silly things. Some of Sally’s stories are true. For legal purposes, consider all of these posts to be … autofiction, if you can stomach that kind of quasi-pretentious literary stuff. Sally doesn’t read autofiction, though. She’s too much of a country girl. You can find her down by the Tennessee River, out in the woods, standing in a sorghum field — or you can find her right here, on her blog. View all posts by Sally
