It's 2.18am and I can't sleep!

I'm really tired (itchy-eye tired) but the noise is keeping me awake :-(

What noise?

It's POURING with rain! The wind is howling and the rain is battering the windows.

We haven't had heavy rain for months, I'm not used to the noise.

Not complaining too much, we really need the rain.

I might have a small glass of port before going to bed tonight.

I don't think I'll have trouble sleeping, I just feel like having a port.

:-D

Hot milk with the option of a spoonful of rum in it then perhaps :-D

Thanks Graham :-D That might work..... but I'm now wondering who those people are.

:-D

Fifty Shades isn't a good idea....... DH is asleep in the spare room... we've been in separate rooms for a couple of months, ever since my hip went wonky.... then I got my belly burned...... now my knee is acting up........ moan, groan, whinge. If Fifty Shades got me "in the mood", I wouldn't be able to do anything about it :-(

Cuppa isn't a good idea either....... I don't like tea, coffee wouldn't help right now.

I've done two on-line jigsaws, played lots of card games...... I might go back to bed & read, cos it's getting chilly here.

HoHum..... it's now 3.20am

:-)

Perhaps Fifty Shades of Grey is the wrong choice for a bedtime read ;-)

I find the best thing is get up and make a cuppa works for me :-D

I went to bed at 10pm, read for a while (maybe 20 minutes) then put the light off.

Tossed & turned, got fed up, stared at the dark, listened to the bats squealing.

Ho Hum.

It's now 2.05am!

I don't have to be anywhere tomorrow until 1.00pm ~ will I wake up in time?

:-(
