I'm currently on short-term disability from my job (for the second time now - I was only back for about a month).
Shar, I know what you mean about the alarm clocks!! At least now I know I'm not the only one. :) I've been using that same strategy for years, too! Before I went back to work last time, I bought an alarm clock (SonicBoom) complete with a bed vibrator and an option to plug in a flashing lamp! This actually helps. However, I tried putting cardboard and tape over the snooze bar to discourage it, and I just ended up resetting the alarm about 5 times each morning... Oh, well. :) Even with 3 alarm clocks, I still get used to sounds after a while and stop waking up, then have to rotate in a new one. Does that happen to you?
Harry, your concerns about going back to work are mine EXACTLY - I feel for you. When do you have to go? My thoughts and prayers will be with you, and keep us posted on how it goes!
