Tuesday Dawns

Wake up Michiganders!
It's 2:00 am and I can't sleep.  I was tired this afternoon, but I laid in bed for an hour and a half without being able to keep my eyes closed.
I see a spider on the wall and I'm keeping my eye on him.  He gets any closer and I'll have him within striking distance.  He's a goner.  I hate, and I mean HATE spiders.

QOTD:  What helps you get to sleep?  Usually I can read and it makes me tired, but not tonight.

WOW Jan,
Can't even compete with your wake-up call. Don't think I'd want to get up at 2am unless absolutely necessary. Hope you got more rest afterwards. It's so important for your recovery......
QOTD-I take a tylenol PM at night. It may be in my head, but it seems to get rid of the aches and pains I have and helps me sleep better. I have slept better since WLS, so maybe I did have some sleep apnea. I can't exercise after dinner or I will never get to sleep....
Get some rest, Jan!

I know I should be getting rest, I just couldn't keep my eyes closed.  I've been awake for over 24 hours now.  Maybe this afternoon I'll be able to take a nap.
Right now I'm trying to talk myself into crushing my pills and gagging them down.  I'm not winning either.
Tonight I'll try the liquid tylenol.

Good morning Michigan.   Looks like another pretty day out there.  
It is gonna be a good day too  I get my new carpet down today so I can get my house back together!.     I have furniture everywhere it doesn't belong!  It total chaos here.    I prefer order as I'm a neatnik  But I am sure gonna enjoy that pretty new carpet!!

 QOTD  It is no fun not sleeping!      I am a nonsleeper.  Have been for years.  Good nights its 3 hrs of sleep for me.   I do take lunesta once in a while  when I need a real good night,   I took it every night for 3 yrs after surgery but now its a couple times a month.     
I hope you get in a real good nap Jan!
Have a great day everyone.

I do have a dated rx for xanax to help me sleep.  Why didn't I think of that before now?  Too tired I guess.

I am up but not ready to work today. I am secretly hoping that it will be just a half a day so that I can go to the grocery store and get that part of my errands done today.

I am getting the starting of a headache and am hoping that the CT I have tomorrow will answer some questions about why I am getting these headaches... Hopefully it does NOT have to deal with my tooth since that is so expensive to get taken care of.

QOTD: I usually do not have a problem getting to sleep. But I do HAVE to sleep 7-8 hours a night now.. I get grouchy and feel kind of sick if I do not.. I do read every night before bed for a little while. I think it just helps me calm down.

Have a great day everyone!

Fessing up again.  I do feel a little sicky and weak and a bit dizzy today.  I'm attributing it to lack of sleep.  Tonight I take a pill!

Good Morning ladies.Hope everyone is well.I am having fully loaded coffee due to no decaf cannot wait to go grocerie shopping,lol.I usually have no problems sleeping.Maybe once a month about the time my visit approaches otherwise I sleep about 6 hours a night without fail.I sunbathed yesterday in a size 16 bathing suit(so happy about that).I use sunblock though because I burn and blister but my legs are so ghostly.I will go again today too after I finish my yard work.It is very very relaxing to sit on the beach with a book and a bottle of water.No kids just me and my pup.Have a great day everyone.

That is very cool Danielle!  I went to LB today and for the heck of it tried on a pair of their size 18 shorts and they fit.  I know they are bigger than at other stores but I'll take it.

Good morning Michigan...........

Gonna be another beautiful day out there. Too bad I am cooped up at work :-)

QOTD:  I normally can get to sleep at night by jus****ching tv which makes me dose off.  It's weird, before surgery I always woke up several times in the middle of the night (not sleep apnea, but to EAT :-) and since surgery, once I'm asleep, I sleep straight through the night.
