I try to find amusement wherever I can --- without  having it come at someone's expense.

(but sometimes we have to take what we can get!)

That's ok Tilt. I am usually an easy target. Some day I will live like a normal person... if there is such a thing

I was just thinking of Days Gone By... running the check-sorting machine in the dead of night down at Trust Company Bank --- the 10,000 paper cuts, the constant cold symptoms from inhaling all the 'paper dust'...

extremely large fun!

Honeybunches, you might as well get to know me a little bit here since I think we are signed up to go on the Glacier trip together.
I had a girlfriend a couple years ago who said I had a fix for everything. Nothing I hate worse than insomnia.
So forgive me if I repeat what I said about trying the B Stress PM. It's a B vitamin complex which we all need anyway. It's made to take at night and has some valerian which is a natural substance that help you to sleep. Also be sure you have adequate ventilation with fresh oxygen. I've known people who sleep with fans next to an open window. Don't go to bed hungry, have a snack consisting of a complex carbohydrate which will also help you to relax. Having a warm bed helps too.

I went to sleep at 10:00. I had a really cool bizarre dream and I was thinking about it. Pretty soon I was awake enough to make coffee.

Sometimes the dreams are worth waking up in the middle of the night, if you can remember them.

I have insomnia very rarely.....BUT when I do, I get up and fix me some Celestial Seasonings SLEEPYTIME tea.....yummmm
...also..I have a friend who works in a sleep clinic and she says...
NO caffine after 3pm
No tv or radio on when sleeping ( even tho asleep, it still causes stimulation to the brain)
Put a box fan in your room ( it adds a constant noise)


I say don't fight it tho...get up and read or something!!!!!...as we get older... we sleep less....just ask Nimble!!!!...I don't think he ever sleeps tho.....

Nimble is of the un-dead, of course.

Can't sleep??

One bourbon, one scotch, uh one beer.

For some people, no caffine period. If I drink a decaf coffee in the morning, I'm screwed for a very long time. Some people have sensitivity to it, so if you're having trouble sleeping, try cutting out caffeine for a couple days and see what happens.

Do something every day that makes you sweat and preferably more than once each day.

No junk food and no fast food and no soda pop.

Beer is OK.

Which one of you spread your disease to me last night? I went to bed at 11 woke up at 2 and couldn’t fall back to sleep until almost 4. I guess 4.5 hours sleep is better than none.
