Alright, let's be clear.
Human beings need a certain amount of sleep.
If we don't get it, we will eventually begin to hallucinate, become delusional, maybe with a side of paranoid, and crave raw brussels sprouts with clam sauce. It's a known fact.
At 10 o'clock I'm sleepy. My eyes droop, I can't think clearly anymore, and the Star Trek movie is over, so I go to bed. As soon as my head hits the pillow, my arms begin to twitch. My leg itches. I start to mull over with my impressive intellect, obscure philosophical conundrums. . . . Okay, I don't. But I do begin to think about what kind of curtains I want to hang in the bedroom, and which cupboard I am going to organize in the morning, and where I will be able to find some rose hip tea. REALLY important things, you know.
I really hate being in bed and being awake at the same time, so I got up. I stayed up till 1:30. I went on the internet and looked for jobs. I even spent half an hour filling out an online job application for a library assistant position. I sure hope they don't look at the time stamp on when it was submitted. ( 11:45 PM) They will think I'm an insomniac or something.
So I tried to go back to bed. 15 minutes later I was up. I finally went to sleep on the couch at 3 in the morning. And woke up at 5:30. Right now I'm a mess. But mostly I want to know why I can't sleep. Oh yeah, Peri Menopause. But what EXACTLY does that mean? No one really knows. They try to pretend they do, but they don't.
In any case, I have things to do. Challah to bake, house to straighten up, novels to write, a Weblog Review to get to, and on top of all that, I have a feeling that I may have to go to the store for brussels sprouts.
Somebody help me.
(Quick. I'm in here with her and I can't get out!)

We all have a clock that seems to get out of whack.
I blame a lot of it on the MEDIA !!instant maddness weather,stock market, and then there is
maddness of children being murdered by women in Russia. If GOD is watching over us then why does he
not bring his wrath to end this , when the Holy
war is using a house of worship as a war zone.
On the lighter side SOMETIMES a good LOVING will chase away the nagging little items running around in our head and sleep will come so softly
in the night.
how arrogant of me to make any statements of this nature only you know why you are restless

You may be sleep deprived and slightly crazy feeling but I value you.

Try taking some extra B-vitamins during the day. I take a B-50 formula. I also find that a good calcium/magnesium supplement before bedtime helps.
