Cant sleep!

It's 11:38 p.m. and I am still wide awake. I know its been a while since I have written anything on here. I have been so busy with Lana who recently turned 1. And she is a handful! Its been so fun watching her grow up and reach her mile stones. I figured since she is a sleep and im wide awake then right now is a good time to write something. We recently had a hurricane come through here which was very scary because Mike wasn't here with us. He was in Ga for work and it was really stressful thinking about what could happen when hurricane Irene came through. I had Lana and Mikey to think of. I was worried about the electricity going out and most of all the house getting damaged. We have quite a few trees in the back yard and they are big. Luckily we ended leaving and going to Martinsville and stayed with my mother-in-law. It usually is a 4 hr drive but it took us about 8 hrs. The stay was not fun at all. The house was pretty empty and there was no cable. We watched Mikey play his playstation the whole day. I was happy to know that we were heading back home the next day. When we came home we still had electricity and water. I was happy that our food did not spoil and that we did not have any damage to our house. It was sad to hear about houses that were destroyed and people who lost their lives from the trees that fell. Our back yard is still a mess. Mike is still gone so I dont really have the time to go out there and pick it all up. Im hoping that Mike will be able to come home on Tuesday. Things have been stressful and overwhelming lately and I feel like I need a break and some me time. I feel like I have no kind of patience and I just get so upset easily. I really just want to be happy again.
