Finally, a nice day

[marilaine]

I usually like to fall asleep to one of Jason's movies....either 'Peter Pan', or 'Patriot' makes me fall asleep pretty quick. The other night, I fell asleep to 'Sweet November' and I didn't even get to Chaz's first entry.....
the last thing I remember is Sara telling Nelson he should move in with her for a month, and waking up to the Thanksgiving scene. (Al:"Happy'Thanks for stealing your land and killing your people' Day." )
If none of these works, I mostly fall asleep to either Led Zep or Pink Floyd('The Wall',disc 2).
If that doesn't work, I usually end up fussing at my sister for keeping from falling asleep at my decent time.
Oy vey! ~M'L

I was taking Tylenol PM for awhile usually only 1/2 a pill and they are supposed to be non-additive but after awhile I convinced myself I couldn't sleep without one. I've been weaning myself off them but it's not easy. No easy answer.

I agree. No easy answer. Something will help me for a while, then I must get too used to it and it won't help anymore.

I find it strange that I'm such a light sleeper, the slightest noise will wake me. I've been known to wake up when someone comes into the room, even silently. I wake up so easy, yet I like falling asleep with the tv on. I can fall asleep without it... But maybe it's like the white noise machine. Which I've always wanted to have.

Try a cheap fan. That's what I've got--works a treat.

(I'm currently enjoying our third straight day of sub-85 degree weather, with COOL EVENINGS and low humidity!!! In eastern Virginia!! In August!!! Man, that'll encourage anyone to sleep . . . )
