Sleeping

It all started last Tuesday night I believe. I went to bed as usual and soon I could here Frank's deep breathing, which meant he was completely out. I laid there and tossed and turned. I kept thinking of all the things I wanted to do, all the things I had to do, and a bunch of other things that I shouldn't even care about. I slowly watched the clock tick away the hours. Then finally I thought I should maybe go watch TV to clear my mind. I started flipping only stopping here and there to see what was on. Pretty soon it was 5:30 in the morning when I finally felt relaxed enough to sleep. 6:00 I was up with Camberlyn. The next I was very busy in the day to sit and think about how tired I should be. That night couldn't relax and feel tired until about 3:30. The next night I tried reading to get me relaxed and I actually got tied up in the book and didn't go to sleep until about 3:00. Holy cow. I talked to a few friends who suggested I take some sort of sleeping pill. I used to take half a Unisom every now and then when I was pregnant to help me sleep through the sickness that I had each night. I LOVED the stuff. I did however wake-up in the mornings really groggy. That's what the pills do to me. I feel like a zombie in the morning and don't get anything productive done.

Last night we came home from a night out and were in bed by about 10:30. I don't remember waking-up again until 7:30 to get ready for church. Yeah! Maybe all the lack of sleep caught up to me and my body can finally get back to its schedule of wanting and loving sleep.

Does anyone know of any tricks that help with insomnia?
