I'm going to try to get a couple of hours sleep. Thanks for asking, Whiskey. Hope you're doing well. I'll try to catch up later.

I get it. The things that squirrel in your head - can't change them but can't turn them off.

It does get better. A lot better. Getting some sleep now will improve things remarkably....

G,

I understand friend. And I have the same concerns/thoughts.

Try not to feed the snakes on the brain. Have faith. You know He isn't going to give you more than you can handle.

Sorry you had a rough night. We've all been there. I go walking when my mind won't shut up. I used to play piano at these times, but I find it brings tears to easily.

I've been keeping in mind something that I've heard GIMA say: "emotion follows thought"

Take this:
grin grin grin
grin grin grin

And to give credit where it's due, I learned that from Coach.

whiskey, gima and Awoken,

"Squirrels And Snakes And Wolves (at the door)! Oh, My!"

And I'm usually pretty good at keepin' those critters outta my head or on a short leash. But when critters prevent sleep and sleep deprivation fuels critters, well, Perpetual Motion results, as we all know.

Tried but couldn't sleep after whiskey dropped by. Gypsy called a while later. After a couple of rounds of Gypsy talking sense/Gardener pi$$ing and moaning, she finally had had enough and sent me to my gym! wink An hour and a half or so at the gym did me good.

While there, I was thinking that yesterday/today makes it four all-nighters I've pulled in the last couple of weeks. Forty-hour "days" of waking up at about 6:00 a.m. and not even getting back into my bed until 10:00 or 11:00 the following night. Yep, last couple of weeks as I went over it in my mind at the gym.

And tomorrow would be - well, tomorrow will be two weeks since the Big D on Tuesday, the 9th. Hmmm.... smirk

My thread name - like me - is a still a work-in-progress: It's 2010. I'm Solo. I'm just not Soaring, yet.
Thanks, guys. Thank you, G-Woman.

Hey G sorry to hear about the rough nights sleep, I have thought about that some as well. I often sit in bed and wonder alot about the future or whatnot. No great advice other than I sympathize with you.

Hang in there and get some rest, otherwise you will not be sharp enough to hit me over the head in my thread!

I sympathize too. I found that a few rounds of computer solitaire at 3am is great way to help shut the mind off...

I hope tonight is better for you-
Hugs, Bunny
