My agere journal! (NOT MY ART!!)

Whenever I regress, I often regress to a younger of my age range. Around 2-4 years old mindset wise. And I'm always very sleepy when I regress, I think it's because I go into that pure childlike mindset, and it's so calming it makes me sleepy. I compare it to being in a church service almost, but not in the bad way, in a good way, like my church I go to and grew up in you'll always find at least one person asleep in the congregation durring service! And that's because our pastor allows people to fall asleep during service. He says that the house of God is a place of healing and rest. So if someone is tired and needs to rest, they should be able to. Especially in church, the house of god, he saysm which i agree. Anyway my favorite way to fall asleep when regressed is to go to Spotify and I have this specific playlist that has a bunch of old classic lullabies, and not like the "new" ones from Disney films. I'm talking about the good stuff. From like the 2000s. Well, anyway, I found a playlist someone made, and it has a whole lot of those types of lullabies. And when I was a child around 4-7, I was dropped off to a daycare for one summer while my dad was going to college. And I loved going there, I was older than 90% of the kids there but I didn't mind I always loved younger kids, so I would play with them with all the fun toys and little house set ups, they had little kitchen sets and little workshops with plastic tools and drills and such, they had magnetics table and chalk boards and a reading corner with stuffed animals. They had a little barber and hair place with little plastic hair brushes and blow dryers. They even had a sandbox in like that little turtle shape that they'd bring inside whenever it was too hot for outside! They had water days too where they had sprinklers and water balloons and water guns! I loved playing there it was the best! They had yummy snacks, and the workers were always so nice and motherly! Which was a big thing for me as my mother was an absent figure in my life, so I grew attached to those ladies very quickly, and I would talk to them like they were my mom. Since I was older than everyone else, they would let me go in the kitchen and help with making snacks or do the dishes, and I was always happy too! I loved helping them it made me feel special and important! I'm getting off track, hehe, but anyway, no time was the best! So when I have trouble sleeping when little, I put on that playlist, and it's just like the music they played during nap time! And I would close my eyes and remember laying on that plastic mat, and I would remember the smell of the plastic mat. And the feeling of it. I would remember being on that mat around the play stuff, and I'd remember rubbing my hand on the carpet they had. I'd remember the sound of th3 ladies chatting with eachothet in another room, and I'd remember the sound of other kids whining or snoring. My favorite was when one of the ladies would lay by your mat durring nap time and pat your side. The preasure of the pats was soothing, and it always put me to sleep! It was so comforting. I loved it so much! So everyone I sleep when little I remember being at daycare durring nap time and ill hug my stuffie and listen to the music and sometimes I'll take my hand and pat my side like they did and it puts me right to sleep!

Anyways this is just a little rant before I go to work!
Let me know if you went to daycare and your favorite memories!
