Had to learn years ago the whole progressive relaxation and directed dreaming to get to sleep fast regardless of where I was.

Works great...

I've been getting drug induced insomnia lately, but last night at least I slept 5 hours. That was better than the 3.5 the night before.

when I can't sleep I just turn on the TV, after about 20 minutes of watching infomercials, I can go right back to sleep.....

SO you have a Stupid phone and a Smart phone? WOW....

The best thing for me to do when a little bout of sleeplessness hits is my girl Elizabeth,

Lizzie is a 58 lb female chesapeake bay retriever...LOL...I know when I have been having nightmares because I wake up to her snoot on my chest looking VERY concerned.

LOL and yes I do have a Tigger pillowcase...lets say I call it spoils of WAR

I learned how to sleep in the military. I started training with my Dad's National Guard unit when I was 15 so from early on learned to sleep when I could cause you never know when you would get the next chance. After four years of riding around in a tank I had honed the skill to perfection. The biggest problem I have is that after being away from tanks for over 15 years the soft hum of a turbine engine puts me right to sleep.

Having a fan going does help me some. I always seem to wake up at the same time in the middle of the night.

HOT BATH
NICE RUB DOWN
Cool Room and a warm comforter...

Okay I do have the advantage of a real live Teddy Bear of sorts (LOL).

Squirrel I swear the hum of an engine...(like on an aircraft) will knock me out in a heartbeat. If I am with a snorer at the station.....if it is snorous...I am gone (LOL)
