Hello everybody! I just got home from work and decided to read *some* of the 200+ new posts. As some of you know, I was having trouble sleeping. It's more like I
*wasn't* sleeping. At least not the recommended 8 hours anyway. But forget 8 hours! I would have paid for at least 4 or 5 straight hours of zzzzz time. I don't know what was going on. Maybe too many worries about work (never enough time to do it all. I think a 60-hr week would probably help me get
*some* of it done) Whatever it was, I was up for 3 nights in a row until 3 or 4 am & getting up at 7 or 8. This was crazy. Specially when you get all sleepy at work after lunch. Too bad we don't have nap time in the office =) I really could have used some. Come to think of it, we could use time-outs for some ppl too. lol
Sorry for the rambling. The point of the story is that I forced myself to be in bed by midnite on friday (this is early for me) and stay there no matter what. I finally fell asleep and didn't get out of bed until 1 in the afternoon the next day =) I figured it wouldn't hurt if I tried the same the next night. So, this was the shortest weekend in history for me. hehehe... Getting up at 1 pm and going back to bed at 11 or 12. Not much of a weekend, but I got *all* the sleeping I had missed last week.
For the ladies that were telling me they too had insomnia, try chamomile. It's very relaxing. Also, try to stay away from the TV or computer. It sounds obvious, but that is one of the most common reasons ppl stay up all night.
Well, I'm off to do some catching up w/the posts. xoxo
