Am Still Awake At 3.40Am! Hardly Worth Sleeping Now Is It Lol

[Smowball]

I have tried to sleep, honestly, but my brain is simply wide awake! So I've come into spare room, so as to not disturb MrSmow with my constant fidgeting about! Have been doing some work online, and just reading utter drivel news nonsense lol. What does everyone else do at this daft time of night? ( I'll probably fall asleep as soon as it's light and I should be getting up!)

Hi Smow, sorry you're finding it hard to sleep - it's 12.15 pm here and I've just listened to the Princess Royal giving a beautiful address at the dawn service at Gallipoli ...she has great poise and it was lovely to see her there 

[Smowball]

Hi seekerz, where are you again exactly? ( and yes I agree, she does indeed x)

[seekeerz]

Australia ....half a World away.  Hope that you've managed to grab a snooze xx

[Smowball]

Nope not yet lol! Ah yes, Australia - all my in-laws family live in Australia, though I can't remember where exactly. My MIL & FIL are hoping to travel over there nxt year to visit for 3 weeks or so.

I don't know how you function Smow, I am fortunately someone who falls asleep as soon as I put my book down. Usually wake once to go to the loo and straight back to sleep.

The only time I had any problem was before our move which was very stressful when so many things were going wrong.

Also got step family in Western Australia but never been there.

Looking grey and dull here, not much on today apart from going to the excellent restaurant just round the corner tonight.

I often wake very early after 4 or 5 hours sleep. I have a brew, spend a bit of time on line then go back to bed.

I should go to bed later but I do get tired in the evening.

I'm often awake during the early hours.  If I can't get back to sleep within half an hour, I get up and have a hot drink, exercise and go back to bed.  If I still can't sleep I read, do the puzzles, zap the spammers and get up at a reasonable time.

I don't like in bed stressing about it

I'm fit to drop at the mo - may have to attempt an hour sleep before I do any more work lol.

nap time Smow. I am like you, my son can sleep on a clothes line

Hi all, I hope you get to catch up with your sleep so you can function well. I wake about 3.30 am every night, lasts about an hour, usually surf the net or listen to comedy often waking up with earphones still in! The rest of the day I feel fatigued but rally around 6pm. Is it getting old that does it? I'm on meds too so maybe they don't help.
