Great!!! Now I have the wheels on the buss go round and round in my head! I do not sleep very well anyway, sometimes never even lay down till 3am.

Did you know that the term for a song stuck in your head is that you have an "ear worm"? Don't know why they call it that. lol.

I get up with the dog, Maya, to let her out so she can go bark at the bears (not really!), the deer or just the rustling grass. I also get up with the kitten, Lily, who wants food way too early in the morning. DH feeds her so she expects me to as well.

You should have left it at Chevy to the Levy, now I'll be singing the wheels on the bus for the next three or four days, my husband isn't going to be happy with you. LOL

So bye-bye, Miss American pie.
Drove my chevy to the levee,
But the levee was dry.
How weird is that.
I listen to the oldies station while sewing and I think they are brain washing me...LOL...or I'm getting to old !!

Last night I dreamed about plastic storage boxes of all things. Wondered how much fabric I could store in them & how inconvenient they would be since they had lids & stacked & weren't drawers. If I wake up during the night, I just assume I have to go to the bathroom whether I do or not. So I go.

However, I frequently wake up with a tune in my head that I hear over and over all day :)
If it's something i like I'm happy, if it's some dumb TV jingle I'm not! lol

Lord, I wish I had that problem, I wake up at least 3 to 4 times a night, and that is if I can get to sleep after laying there for a while.LOL And I don't wake up with a tune in my head, I'm usually wishing I can go back to sleep :lol:

Me too. It's unusual for me, but I've been under the weather the last couple days and have slept quite a bit, so that may be why.

BTW, did you know those songs that get caught in your head are called earworms?
