hellllllllllllooooooooooo Greg:
Son actually learned something from his college speech class...before a speech, or test, visualize yourself being sucessfull...and he said, for the first time ever, he had no NO test anxiety...ah, whats a mother to do, your kids always learn it from somewhere else...how does it go? The older you get, the smarter your parents become?
The other night, stumbling around, I couldn't find the door, I use two tiny lights as reference, and always have the same routine, I realized: my eyes were still closed! No wonder I couldn't find the door!
Oh, my bedroom and bathroom clock have no light to them....The only way I can tell what time it is is if the light is dawning, or the birds are starting their songs...
Do you make little tea cozies for your clocks?
Glad to hear you nights are restful. I think starting anything new like a J-O-B is stressful...
The mouse listening to OPERA (which is very stressful)
Susan C> I posted a few weeks ago about a problem I was having sleeping thru the night since starting my new job. I was talking to a friend about it and after listening to the tale and nodding knowingly the whole time he asked me if I looked at my clocks when I would wake up during the night. I told him of course I did, that's how I knew when I was getting up. He said that was the problem. He told me to cover every clock in the house before I went to bed at night so I would have no idea what time it was. I bet him $20 bucks it couldn't be that simple, I lost.

> I'll be damned if I haven't been sleeping better every night! Sometimes I sleep thru the night without waking, and when I do wake up, I fall right back into a deep sleep and usually sleep to the alarm.
