I was a mess but I got a lot done around the house and put in forty hours of overtime.... SRSLY. To avoid that ever happening again I broke down and got a perscription for sleeping pills. Only had to take them when I felt a 'case' coming on, but they sure saved my sanity when I didn't want to be up and could not simply drift off. Course, then there are those nights now, when I don't choose to hit the sack until the sun is coming up, and the sheep are talking about me behind my back...Entre Noushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00186796216462041421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7801598232569840695.post-86117802428246231532010-10-02T16:47:33.507-07:002010-10-02T16:47:33.507-07:00Well, if you gotta be awake I say get those ovine ...Well, if you gotta be awake I say get those ovine ruminants to do a little work for you..send one for the kleenex, one for the pizza.

I wish I could say my thoughts were that simple, mine tend to be more towards bills and housework.<br /><br />Fling that sucker next time, just make sure you clean it up in the morning!Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16979939882187985994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7801598232569840695.post-58550910608884566222010-10-01T06:30:02.966-07:002010-10-01T06:30:02.966-07:00Oh, 7 nights in a row, that's just brutal. Whe...Oh, 7 nights in a row, that's just brutal. When I can't sleep,my mind wander too, but probably not as colourfully as yours does. The more I try to meditate or relax the harder it gets.

I wish I could suggest a remedy for you. Hope tonight is more serene and restful for you. - GAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
