Hi , Just a thought why not have a new category for members with sleep problems ?1

It would be easier to have a group for those who don't have any problems so they can get away from the rest of us. We could sneak in and see how they manage it. Secret Sleepers Business

@sister I've been using 'Nutralife Magnesium Sleep' most nights since diagnosis (2015). My oncology team think it's fine and naturopath has checked out long term use plus interactions. All good. The magnesium relaxes the muscles, Passion flower and ziziphus calm the mind noise. Plus a great benefit is the ziziphus helps with hot flushes!! I love it. Usually only have one then read for about 30 mins then I'm asleep. You can redose with another in the night if necessary. And you don't wake up sluggish or hung over. Maybe worth a try. Be careful of camomile if you are on tamoxifen, it can interfere with its absorption. Janine xzzz2

I was a bit delayed getting on @onemargie I've been looking for a 46 year wedding anniversary poem!
I've decided that I can no longer go walking before the kids get up - we're on a fairly deserted road through forest and yesterday morning someone drove past and stopped up further. It was probably just for a kangaroo but I turned into the last driveway as if I was walking to the house and waited for the car to leave. Not terrified, just cautious and now, pissed off. I could walk on our property but in the dark, I'd probably risk a broken leg (and it's just too steep - I'm not that fit).
I haven't seen my husband since 9pm last night - second night in a row that he's had to go out to a car accident. The CFS sign up to fight fires - most don't realise that half the time in the Hills they're scraping people off the road. Oh dear, I can feel yesterday's philosophical mood creeping on again. I thought I'd exorcised that in my blog rant....
Aren't you glad you waited up to join me? Or is that the sound of zzzzz, I hear?0 -
Hi there all you night owls...I'm another who watches the clock creep by in small increments through the night. 2.24....2.31...2.47...3/02 ...and so on. Coming to the computer is not on for me, as I wake up the furbabies, who reckon it's daytime, and then start scratching on bedroom doors to be let in. Verrrry grumpy hubby and daughter are the result, as they have to go to work in the morning. I have my own room now, as everybody else at least gets to sleep and I can turn on the light (quietly so as not to tip off aforementioned furbabies), I then read my kindle or turn into the Phantom Knitter. I churn out knitting at a rate of knots and it soothes me. The monotony of plain knitting when I just want to put what's left of my brain in neutral, or lacework when I want to concentrate on a complicated pattern to block out the Night Beasties. Works a treat...even if I can't sleep, at least I'm not disturbing the working household, and I'm doing something I love.
