No time for much today, and can't think of much to say anyway. That and I'm groggy from lack of sleep. I'm getting my insomnia back and it's not fun. I have to take some caffeine intravenously so I can get awake. I already took a shower and that usually does it. Not today.
Question: Why do I get my best sleep after my alarm goes off? I always set the alarms (yes, I have three...anal? Of course!) early enough so I can hit the snooze three or four times. I sleep like a baby between snooze-hitting!
I'm going straight from work this morning to help (read: watch) my sister make Christmas candy. She makes the best Mounds, Mallow Cups, Almond Joy, etc. Only this year she's had a request from her DH to make dark choc. Almond Joy. Ummmmm, sounds good! I'm off work af of my afternoon shift on Dec. 19th. So I have a few days before Christmas to make my holiday goodies.
Hopefully, I'll have time to catch a nap before my afternoon shift today!
So is your title a pun on the topic of your sister's candy?
ReplyDeleteGood luck getting in a nap.
Since I changed my bedroom (and stopped drinking) I sleep completely through the night now. What a relief! Is your bedroom too hot, I wonder? Your mattress too soft/hard? *Something* is waking you up during the night. You need your sleep - find out what's bugging you and rectify it. (Or, maybe it's your "change" LOL.)
ReplyDeleteI'm making candy this weekend too. Rumballs - yum! I haven't made taffy since mom died. Maybe I should try that again?
Have a great weekend Ginni!
Drink some melatonin tea before bedtime. It really works. Oh, and lick the bowl for me (the chocolate (caffeine-full), not the tea!).
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry about the insommnia, Ginni. And I know just what you mean about the best sleep after "snooze". It's also when the cats are at their most affectionate :-(
ReplyDeleteUnless you've had insomnia, you can't know how all-encompassing terrible it is, right? It's a vicious cycle. I'm so sorry you're going through it. Been there. I take meds now to help me sleep, and they work.
ReplyDeleteI wake up before my alarm every morning and never go back to sleep. As long as it's past 4:30, it's OK. 6:00 is much better.
