This week we meet Jen. Jen’s been having some trouble sleeping. A lot on her mind. Kids. Job. Boss. Ex-hubby. Noisy furnace. And on and on. No end to the toils and troubles. 

She stuffed her ears with wax plugs. Meditated. Found something to be grateful for. Fell asleep lickity split.

But now it’s just three hours later. And she’s awake. Wide awake. In the pitch black of early morning. Body and brain buzzing. Monkey noise fills her head. She feels right on the edge of madness.
