Well happy to report I had a fairly good night .

Awake several times as hubby got up to loo , seems an instinct to know he is getting up , I settle down again once I know he is safely back in bed

He had the alarm on for 7am as he likes to go to Mass . I take him ,drop him off and go back later to pick him up . It was lashing down and blowing a hooley so I said to him you best forget it for this week as you cant hold your balance when its not windy

So he settled down , I though was now wide awake so got up .

Feeling OK and refreshed which is good

Hubby and I have now retired. I finished just over a year ago. Must admit that often we stay up until silly o'clock watching TV but as we no longer have to be up in the morning it doesn't matter too much and can always catch up with forty winks during day. Ah the joys of retirement so any night I can't sleep there is always something on TV

Thanks folks still up but lagging a bit now so will be up the wooden hill,very soon I think .

OH is watching Foyles War at the mo so he is OK . To be honest now he has his stairlift in I can go to bed without worrying about him . Have locked up and set up the dishwasher to do overnight so it's off to bed I think .

You have my sympathy I had a sleep problem happily sorted now but I remember the zombie like feeling, it was horrible.

Hope you sleep well tonight and wake up tomorrow feeling much better. :-)

I sometimes have nights like this. I go to bed and read every night and when starting to get sleepy, put my book down . But some nights my eyes just wont stay closed and then my brain goes into overdrive. I usually wait about 1/2 hour and then give up and go downstairs. Play games on laptop or ds until I cant keep awake any longer.Thankfully its not too often. hope you get a good sleep tonight. xxx

well I wasnt feeling that good on Friday after going out to the monthly chiro appointment and doing other drop in shopping

Went to bed around 10pm and watched the TV on the bedroom TV but came awake to realize I had dropped off so switched off and settled down

OH is a late riser so watches TV programs in the evening that I dont like so thank goodness for the bedroom TV

SOO settled down and was just about aware when he came to bed . He gets up several times in the night to use his bottle which always wakes me so i cant settle again till he is safely back in bed

SOO at 2am I was awake . hubby got up to do what he had to do and I went to the bathroom ,disaster i got back in bed and tossed and turned and couldn't get comfy .

Been up now since 2am and feeling Sh...ty . I do need to sleep and hopefully be on board early tomz to drive OH to Mass for 10am

Hubby sleeps for Xmas whilst I am up a silly oclocks but stil need to be on the go :-|
