Been there, done that have the t-shirt.
I had some positive results with anti-histamines (Diphenhydramine).
Benzodiazepines also work quite well for me.

I’m thinking about a medium rare tenderloin with Béarnaise sauce. And a full bodied red. And a baked potato with everything on it.

Would work perfectly well for me ;D
Especially if you down that bottle of red. Not to mention the relaxing effects of cooking in the middle of the night. I often cook at night.

I can’t think of Béarnaise Sauce without recalling one time making it I managed to cut the tip of my finger off while dicing the shallots. I just kept going and finished the sauce with my left hand all wrapped up. It was all wasted though, as I did have to go to the hospital where they put this weird finger bandage on me. That finger still has a white rather numb spot where the regrowth of the tip occurred. It’s amazing the healing powers of the human body.

Shoot, had I logged on I could have contributed at 3:00am. I was up for about an hour but just flipped channels instead of grabbing my computer. Didn't feel like getting out from the covers to get my computer charging in the other room

Midnight walk through the barns.....
All the horses asleep, everything quiet.
When ever I can't sleep, I just take a quiet walk through the barns.
But ......"To Get To Sleep" at midnight anyway (works every time)......a nice hot bath with candle light.

I can assure you, as someone who feel asleep in the bath pretty much as often as I had baths, it's near impossible to drown in the bath, as long as you keep the crook of your neck on the edge.

I usually have my last cup of coffee right before going to bed.

Yep. I remember back in the high school days I would drink 2-3 sodas a day. Then crash like it was nothing to me.

At least he’s there. The girl that woke me at 11:45PM did so when my iPad pinged, and it was to tell me she’s going to a monster truck rally in June. I looked because I thought something actually happened. Now here it is 3:30AM and still can’t get back to sleep. I just replied to her a few minutes ago, LOL.

4:00 a.m. immigration hearing in the morning, trial on Wednesday. Wife wants to get pregnant. Too much to wrap my head around. Usually I can just meditatd myself to sleep, but for some reason too many thoughts tonight. I need to clone myself to get it all done. *sigh*

Won the INS proceeding. Won the trial. Probably pregnant wife, or I wasted an awful lot of baby batter. Now I’m thinking about getting up at 4:30 a.m. to take my baby to the band hall so he can make it to Regionals, by bus departing at 5:30 a.m. Ugh. I had a bottle of Cabernet that’s worn off.

Damn client woke me up at 2:30 in the morning from nursing home. He is the ward in a guardianship proceeding and has been found to be mentally incompetent.

How the fuck did he get access to a phone in the middle of the night? Ugh.

Puppy is keeping me up. Wifey gets up every five minutes to tend to her, then keeps bringing her into our bed to sleep. I keep waking up, and taking her back to her crate in the kitchen. Last time I did that, I stepped in a nice pile of puppy shit on the bedroom floor. I’m putting Wifey in the crate, if this keeps up.

For two days everything I ate or drank seemed to have an unpleasant somewhat metallic taste. I first noticed it Wednesday evening eating homemade pizza. Thursday evening I actually opened a second bottle of red wine thinking the first had gone bad. Nope, both bottles tasted the same, metallic and unpleasant. What a waste of good wine.
I complained about this taste at work on Friday finally realizing it wasn’t the food and drink but something else. One of the girls in my group googled something probably ‘bad taste in mouth’ and began asking me asking me from the list:
On chemo?
No.
Bad oral hygiene?
I brush often, so no.
Pregnant?
Probably not.
Dementia?
A distinct possibility.
Then others speculated I was coming down with the flu. Here it is 4:30AM Saturday and no flu yet. I stopped on the way home Friday at happy hour and ordered two pounds of extra hot wings just hoping that would overwhelm the unpleasant metallic taste. For the most part it seems to have worked. But now I can’t fucking sleep!!!
-
Sulphides? (water, wines,...)
-
Pregnant?
Probably not.
Could be PMS.
-
Pregnant?
Probably not.
Could be PMS.
Do I seen irritable to you Indian Babe? I’m not irritated at all actually even by lack of sleep, but I did mention dementia as a possibility, perhaps a sort of demonic dementia. No not dementia, as I seem to have my faculties, but I am experiencing a certain craziness.
But enough about me, when are we going to hear more about that bright blue vibe you bought and it’s usage? The demented demon in me wants to hear about the outcome of you taking that insidious neon blue vibe for a ride.

Metallic taste is regular during periods Jed. Hence my (poor) attempt at humour. Hope I didn't offend.

Metallic taste is a warning of diabetes, liver, or pancreatic cancer. I’d get it checked out if it persists.
Planning on sleeping well tonight. Fever finally broke, so I don’t plan to be up ever other hour tonight. And puppy is sleeping well in kitchen finally.

My metallic taste did go away. I don’t expect it to return unless I do a tasting as I have implied here. Hear that Indian Babe?

Didn't get much sleep on Monday night. Only about 4 hours. So I figured I'd sleep good last night. I woke up about 3:00 worrying about my commute- getting snowed on. I didn't sleep much after that. Was going to grab my computer, but it was too nice under the covers. Never really went back to sleep.
-
I was all hyped up on cough syrup and OTCs. Sort of half dreaming half hallucinating stuff that makes no sense now, but I probably got six hours out of all of it. Enough to make a go of it today. With coffee.
-
Wednesday Morning (Early, Very Early) like 4 AM.
Could not sleep, so I went down to the barns to check on things (everything good, all quiet)....Back to the kitchen and made a peanut butter and banana sandwich, just waiting for it to snow, and snow it did..!!!......started at 7AM and has steadily increased since then (they are calling for 5" now).....not sure about NYC. I just hope the rain and ice storm passes us by.
Love,

Second night in a row I woke up at exactly 3:45 am. Luckily this time I just fell right back asleep. If it happens again tonight, I will be officially freaked out.

Second night in a row I woke up at exactly 3:45 am.
That used to happen to me a lot. It is so weird. It hasn't happened in a while. But in my 20's, for like a week straight, I'd wake up at the exact same time in the middle of the night. By the 5th night, I really started freaking out.
I've been waking up in the middle of the week all week. It's starting to tick me off. Then, I've been getting up early because it's been snowing all week. I can't wait for the weekend to sleep in and hopefully reset my body's sleep clock.
-
Already down before 9 p.m. I am so freaking tired. Running two kids back and forth. Trying to repair two autos. Paying bills. Dealing with approaching Valentines and a birthday celebration. Clients calling all hours... I’m turning phone to DND.

Worst night sleep in a long time. My little one kept waking up with nightmares. Found out he has a low fever. I hope its not flu. :facepalm: Then once I finally get back to sleep a loud thunderstorm moved in and woke me up again. :
I never should have said that I never have trouble sleeping. Now it seems I have jinxed myself. :roll:

Woke up at three and can’t get back to sleep. Fooled around on Chaturbate, and now I’m all horny too. Damn me.

I gotta stop waking at 4AM when I don’t need to get up until 7-8AM for work an hour later. It seems to be morning wood waking me these days, but at least I still get erections at nearly 56. I’m not even sure when the last time I had sex was, but it surely has to be nearly a year ago. I keep getting told to try dating sites and perhaps I will soon. It’s been nearly 9 months since my wife passed, but it still seems like yesterday.
-
I was up until 3:30 this morning, but slept until noon. So I feel great.

Wife clopping around the bedroom knocking things over, like a mare in her stall, at 6 a.m. You do realize it’s Sunday, honey?

Wifey kept getting up and down all night. Lights on. Lights off. Coffee cup clattering on nightstand. Dropping phone on the floor. My God. I finally told her at 3 a.m. stop It. Stop it now.
She was sexting with her girlfriend back home. So I rubbed one out of her. Peace.
-
Slept for an hour from 11 - midnight. Was laying in bed, and tossing and turning. Now here I am watching last night's Tonight Show Episode with Jimmy Buffett singing Margaritiville. Now Troye Sivan is performing. Not a fan of his. His dance moves aren't very good either.
Not even close to being tired.

I had a jumbo Starbucks around 6 p.m., so naturally I’m awake at 3 in the morning. LOL.

So much shit going on. Death in the family. Holiday “must do” activities, financial worries, and I am likely quitting my job on Wednesday after I get paid. Not conducive to peaceful slumber.
So I like this beer bread, and bought a 40 oz. Mickey’s to make it. My kid finds the beer in the fridge and drank most of it last night, so I start making bread at noon, before he drinks the rest. I forgot this bread has a 12 hour rise time, so I’m punching down dough at midnight for a second rise. Looks like I’m getting to bed at 3 a.m., but at least I will have fresh bread for breakfast.

I don't need all the carbs, but I will still enjoy a bit of it. Plus, there is nothing like walking in a house and smelling freshly baked bread. The squirrels and the birds have a long winter ahead of them too, so I will share. Plus I take the nursing home residents cookies and cupcakes, I'll bet they would like some homemade bread also.
I'll look for an after Christmas sale for one.
Sorry for the lack of sleep. Update on my recent post in this thread. I'm sleeping better. But I do wake up midway through the night and luckily have fallen back to sleep each time.
-
Julie, try looking at Craigslist, and local swap lists online, for the Bread Maker. They are great, make a nice loaf from premeasured bagged ingredients, etc... and... they are huge, as to counter space, and too bulky to just leave it around on a counter if it does not get heavy use.
Also they are heavy, and require some off-counter storage space that is conducive to actually using the thing. I have two... one I bought, and one received as a gift. Have used both, and they both work well, and I have not made another loaf of bread with either for years.
Just a suggestion, do not purchase a new one, when you can likely find a host of them, whether at Ebay, or in local discounted lists of items available for free ware, or heavily discounted, or swap ware.
Happy Holidays!
Just checked: $30 to $140 on Ebay!

Middle of the night, mind you. Yelling out his window at his dog.

Woke at 1:00AM with my gastrointestinal system rebelling just a bit from the meat fest last night at the Fogo de Chao Brazilian restaurant. We got a gift card as a wedding present.
My Peruvian has left for work, and I can sleep 2 hours before I need to leave as well, except my own fucking dog won’t stop barking from her cage in the kitchen. At least when I yell ‘SHUT UP!!!’ down the hall, my neighbors can’t hear me.
OK, trying again. . . . . maybe I can get an hour’s sleep.

An owl woke me up about 2:05 pm. WHO Yes, an owl.
I live in the city but near some woods. He must be right outside my window. It's a very cool sound. But not at 2 in the morning. He went on and on for about 20 minutes. Now I just can't get back to sleep. 1 hour 45 minutes later I am wide awake. Read for an hour, then came out to the family room. Thought sitting in a recliner I could maybe fall asleep. Nope. Wide awake. WHO
-
Get a BB gun
-
They can be quite loud. I’ve done a lot of backpacking/camping, so I’ve heard them often. Regardless if I’m with someone or alone, I can’t help myself from replying, ‘Me, that’s who.’
And no staci, we will not be shooting owls.
A few years ago at my gun club’s winter party a stripper with an owl tattoo on her back was bouncing in my lap, and I yelled out ‘Ooouuww’ (as in ouch). She stopped bouncing and looked back at me, ‘Huh?’ Whereupon I said, ‘There’s an owl on your back.’
-
Get a BB gun
Overcast night sky, I could barely see the pool slide.
And no shooting of animals, unless it's with a camera. Right Ms?
-
For me yes. No season to wait for. I can shoot critters all year long. :D
Owls, while not endangered, are protected.
Bonus Jules...The mouse population in your area is being reduced.
-
It's really nice not having to get up for work every day. You know, so you can sleep whenever you'd like.
Except when you can't sleep. I woke at 4am and have been reading my kindle. Just migrated out to the family room.
-
Here I am again. 3:08 am
One club I wish I was not a member of.
-
Waiting for our oldest to come home. Was supposed to be here by 2:00. It's 2:36 right now.
Update: she's home. Bed time for me.
-
Well for the first time in many years, I saw the New Year arrive at Midnight.
Stay awake you say...nay. I was sound asleep, cat curled up by my feet in the corner of the bed when....
BLAM....BLAM....BLAM!!!!
Frack'n people on the next street were setting off fireworks. First what sounded like gun fire on first waking to the noise. Cat jumped off the bed and huddled in the hall. Heard more noise from the other side of the house so I got up.
Neighbors across the street were out yelling and blowing horns...kids were still up too. Hell...no doubt the whole neighborhood was now awake.
So here I sit, nearly two hours later and can't get back to sleep.
We're early risers, usually by 5:30 AM at the latest. Think I'll go over across the street, bang on their door and wish 'em a Happy New Year.
Jules, glad the kid made it home safe. Sweet dreams.
-
Fell asleep midnightish... neighbors start shooting off fireworks around 1:45 a.m. They’ve stopped now, but fuck. My mind is racing and it’s going to be a long night.
-
We fell asleep at 8 but woke around 10. We finally gave up at 11:30 and turned the TV on. First we watched Piranha 3D (w/o the 3D), which was only redeeming for the jiggle. And I was pleasantly surprised to see one of my favorite porn stars Ashlynn Brooke had a bit part in it.
(https://i.imgur.com/aDSzQdW.jpg)
Then we watched Zombie Honeymoon, a terrible movie about newlyweds where he eats people and she codependently enables it.
That was followed by Al Pacino in Scarface. We watched that til the very end. Once it was over I pushed the covers down past my waist and delivered Pacino’s iconic line to my Peruvian, ‘Say hello to my little friend.’

My Peruvian just got one of those. I’ll ask her how she slept with the data to show.

With the holidays and fostering, we’ve got four adults and two kids in the house right now, and we are a couple of beds short, so dad is sleeping in his favorite chair downstairs, which ordinarily would not be a problem, but every time someone comes downstairs to smoke a cigarette, get a glass of water, make a snack, use the guest toilet, etc., I get awakened. So I’m grumpy.
-
Going to be a long night. I have about 10 probate pleadings I have to have finished for a client, and I can’t go to bed until those are done. Then I’ll have to email them around for signatures. I can’t decide if I want to drink coffee to stay awake. If I do, I’ll be up all night. On the other hand, I’m sort of follow sleep right now.
-
Just for fun...thought the members of this club might find in amusing.

I got up at 4 a.m. and drove 600 miles today. But I took four Vivarin and two Starbucks Triple Shots to get home. About 800 mg of caffeine.
-
I only post here on occasion. I try to get back to sleep. Opening up my laptop is a sure way to not get back to sleep. I always try for half an hour before I reach for the laptop.
-
I haven't been sleeping much. For once, it's none of the kids keeping me up.
Recently been having really bad hunger pains in the middle of the night for some reason. I guess that "heart healthy" diet I'm forced to be on isn't all it's cracked up to be. :roll:
-
End of a 3 day weekend, so had lots of trouble sleeping. We watched the Hispanic version of Judge Judy until it ended at 2AM. It was a custody battle. The husband said he couldn’t take it anymore that his wife sang everything, never just talked. The woman was in the courtroom singing all of her replies to the judge, who was rather incredulous this was really happening and began mocking her by singing back. They brought the couple’s boy out and the judge asked him who he wanted to be with, and he replied his father. Asked why, he replied, ‘Momma es loca.’
It was hysterical every time the woman sang her responses. I tried to figure out if it was fake, but they brought out psychiatrists who said the woman needed therapy. As sad as that was, my Peruvian and I couldn’t stop laughing. Even after it was over and we turned out the light, we were singing good night to each other and laughing so hard. We would stop, and it got quiet, then one of us would sing something again and the laughter would resume.
It’s hard to sleep when you can’t stop laughing. Meanwhile I’m at work drinking lots of coffee, and my Peruvian has the day off. I’m sure she’s still sleeping.

Every morning for the past 2 weeks or so I've been waking up between 4:00 and 4:30 a.m. no matter what time I go to bed. Have no idea why. Only difference this morning is I'm not waking up in my own bed

Having nightmares and am very anxious like I am having trouble breathing, but I'm not. Keep getting up and pacing. ;( I just want to sleep. :'(

Laying in bed wide awake, get up and go to the couch watch tv, and get sleepy so I go back to bed and lay there wide awake. Go back to couch and get sleepy, head back to bed and lay there wide awake again. Back to the couch I go, get sleepy decide to sleep on the couch... now I'm laying here wide awake...

Playing solitaire at 3 a.m.
When I lived alone and couldn't sleep I would play euchre online before I abruptly quit that group. Most times there were at least 3 or 4 other online friends to have a game. When there wasn't, I would push my keyboard aside and play solitaire until enough showed up.
-
2 a.m. Everyone in the house is asleep but me. Not sure why that is.
-
3AM. I think I can sleep, I just seem to be willfully refusing to while I contemplate the state of things political, epidemiological and sexual while drinking very good bourbon.

Okay, so it's 2:10am AEDT (UTC+11), and I'm watching a premiered playthrough of Root on YouTube while I wait for my wife to get home.

I went to bed at midnight, and slept almost 10 hours. 1st night in five that I have had a restful sleep. I only had three or four hours per night of shuteye all week, and I guess it finally knocked me out.
-
Been awake for the last two hours after just 3 hours sleep. Wide awake. Changed the microwave clock. The oven clock. The 3 decorative clocks elsewhere in the house. Tossed a load of laundry in. Read my kindle for a bit. Wiped down all the kitchen counters and appliances. Reorganized the tupperware drawer that nobody can put stuff away properly. "The stack inside each other, fam." NOT turning on the tv. Looking at this screen and my kindle screen is too bright and not helping matters 1 hour 45 minutes until sunrise. I really want to sleep. Hopefully during the day later. I try not to do that but I didn't nap yesterday. 6 hours sleep since I woke up Friday morning.
"Just warning you Danno, Jules is gonna be a bitch today."
-
Up all night after a good night’s sleep yesterday. Wifey can’t wake up for work, despite multiple alarms. So I must get up, turn on lights and shake her. Now I’m too pissed to fall back asleep. Going to be a great first day of daylight savings time.

You want something to help you sleep, Jules?

I should have checked. I was up in the night. Wifey starts a new job today, so she was nervous and thrashing in bed all night. Not for good reasons. She finally drifts off and I am WIDE awake.

4:14 am. This is just great.

I used to get up at 4:50 am to go to work. I quit working in September so I can sleep in as long as I like. But I am usually awake by 6 am every day, which is nice because I get a couple of hours to myself. I go to bed around 10 pm. I very rarely sleep other than those hours because, if I fall asleep in the evening watching TV or reading, I'll never get to sleep when I do get in bed.
Since my 4:14 am post, I did fall asleep. I slept from about 6am - 7:30, so that was nice.
-
Wife is working the late shift, 3 pm to 11 pm. So she’s staying up until 3 am and sleeping past noon. Which has my sleep rhythms all messed up too.

2 a.m. Sweet Jesus, let me have some sleep!

I was awake from 4:00 am to 6 am. I finally got back to sleep. I had a rather convoluted dream that I had been elected Pope*. I was insisting that I did not want to be Pope. “I’m not even Catholic!” But the Cardinals would hear nothing of it. At least I can hear Miss Barbara’s confessions now.
*I watched The DaVinci Code’s “Inferno” last night.

One of my friends sent me this action packed movie when I told him I was finding it difficult to sleep. It is 8 hours long and best watched on a big screen.

Went to be at midnight. Woke up at 1am and was awake until at least 1:30 which was the last time I looked at the clock. Woke up at 5am and finally gave up trying to sleep. Will try again in 20 minutes, but I already have a peach tea going.
-
I've done everything I could think of to sleep. My brain will not shut down. Jake's snoring isn't helping and he barks at me if I turn on the tv, or do anything with any type of sound. I can't find my flipping earbuds either. By the gods I just want some sleep before working in that prison tomorrow

Went to take a nap after an early Memorial Day dinner. Probably shouldn’t have ‘napped’ 4-5 hours. Bourbon and beer while looking at some cookbooks that arrived on Memorial Day, seems FedEx was working. My current (resumed) obsession is Southern Cooking and breaking down the regions. Southern cooking is as diverse as European cooking.

I was up from 2am to 3am. Finally fell asleep. I'm avoiding getting out of bed and flipping the laptop open. I've learned it only makes it harder to get back to sleep.

My Southern heritage is Scot, Irish, Cherokee. My great-great grandfathers were plantation and slave owners. So we have all of the chicken fried everything, Cajun, Hillbilly heritage. Great foods. Lots of French and African accents.

Hate falling asleep early, always end up awake in the night.
Perhaps I’ll invade Normandy on the anniversary.
It was the dark of the moon
On the sixth of June
And a Kenworth pullin' logs
Cab over Pete with a refer on
And a Jimmy haulin' hogs
We was headin' for bear

'Bout a mile out Shakey Town
I says, Pig Pen this here's the Rubber Duck
And I'm about to put the hammer down
'Cause we got a little 'ole convoy
Rockin' through the night
Yeah, we got a little 'ole convoy
Ain't she a beautiful sight
C'mon and join our Convoy
Ain't nothin' gonna get in our way
We gonna roll this truckin' convoy

Had a very very long day yesterday, which culminated in hosting a graduation dinner and attending graduation ceremony for my youngest son. Got to bed past midnight, and slept until almost noon. Feel like a million bucks. Which is about how much it cost to raise my kids.
-
Fell asleep early evening for little less than an hour and now I'm wide awake and most likely not going to see any sleep any time soon.
-
Big day yesterday and was dead tired. Hit the rack by 9:30 and was out as soon as head it the pillow.
A bit after two am, woke up. Tried to roll over and get back to sleep. Naw... didn't happen. Finally gave up a few minutes ago. Guess I'm up for the day.
-
About 2:30 I awoke from a realistic dream about my sister. We were having a discussion about many things. Since then I have been unable to get back to sleep. So, I just decided to get up. The mattress in our rental home doesn't help. I did bring along my own pillow though.
-
I woke up at 4 a.m. Not going back to sleep.
-
Its been almost a week since I've had an decent night sleep. I'm either waking up every hour or I wake up once and can't fall back to sleep. Not sure if it's my MS doing it or some other stresser. I know watcher has a theory, but I doubt that's it.
Just give me 4-6 in interrupted hours and I'll be thankful.

That's about me these days. 5-6 hours.
During my employment days I would get up at 4:45am. Well, I still wake up at 4:45am (without an alarm). I'll lay there to try and fall back to sleep, but if I'm unsuccessful I'll get up at 5am. I like to go sit outside by the pool with coffee and my ipad. Or I'll go for a walk. I always see wildlife at this time. We have two baby deer I see at least once a week. They have gotten so big over the last month.
If I don't go outside, but instead sit in our family room, I might fall back to sleep. That is the BEST. I just feel so good after a one hour nap. Yes a nap after getting out of bed. Usually comes after about an hour of sitting reading. Why can I fall asleep reading on the couch but not while laying in my bed?

I honestly don't even remember the last time I had a decent night's sleep. Two weeks I think? It has all blended into one nonstop struggle. Sleep aids are not helping and I don't want to keep taking them. Might have to swipe some sedatives from work (just kidding)

Took wife to work at 11 p.m., and fell asleep by 2 a.m. Woke up at 4:00 a.m. to get my youngest to work by 5 a.m. Woke up my oldest at 6 a.m. and made him breakfast to be at work at 7 a.m., which is the same time my wife needed to be picked up. Then off to the courthouse to register my son’s truck... but wait! It’s time to pick up my youngest! “Don’t forget I have that appointment with the oral surgeon this afternoon...”. And people wonder why I’m tired all the time?

Well this has been a while. Can not get comfortable. I'm either too hot or too cold, can't find a happy medium. Cant get comfortable in bed or on the couch. Perhaps some sangria will do the trick.

Up at 2:00 AM to pee. Back to the rack. And that was that...wide awake. Tossed and turned for an hour. When the cat got pissed and left, I knew it was a lost cause. Guess I'll go look at porn until rest of the house wakes up. :facepalm:
-
Sorry, MS.
And I've quit the club. Sleeping like a baby lately.
Don't worry, I'll likely rejoin at a later date.
-
I basically sleep from 2 or 3 a.m. to 9 or 10.
-
Unfortunately I only sleep well if I drink something. I don’t have to be drunk and I dream just fine, just sleep terrible on nothing or nothing those last hours before bed (like last night). I dislike being drunk and avoid that almost completely, but a little sure helps.
-
Between the pandemic, and my wife working the night shift, my normal circadian rhythm is completely messed up. I’ve got to figure out a way to get a normal nights sleep. I was taking melatonin nightly for a while. But I got out of the habit. I might have a cocktail or two before bedtime. That seems to help. The problem is, the minute I lay down, I’m wide awake.

I used to suffer from insomnia and take various pills prescribed by my family doctor. Looking back, the meds he prescribed were overkill. It wasn't until I went to a neurologist that I found something that worked for me and didn't leave me comatose.
I don't know if we're talking about the same thing, but I have an adverse reaction to common sedatives. Even a tiny amount of codeine or tramadol in a pain-relief medication prevents me having good sleep. I lie in bed, nice and cosy, but don't drift off into dreamland.

I've been getting some decent sleep lately do to me finding my diffuser. Every night I've got at least lavender, peppermint, and a citrus going.

The snoring, the moaning, the rolling around, fluffing pillows, turning on lights for a cigarette, shutting doors loudly, myoclonic jerking, poking me, the scooting over to the middle of the bed. I don’t have a guest bedroom available at the moment, and I hate sleeping on the couch with the dog. But lying there night after night, being tormented, it’s just absolutely driving me fucking crazy.
-
After hearing all that Toe, I'm so glad I just have a cat who stays in his own corner of the bed.
OK, the girl kitty is an early riser. Sometimes she'll hop up on the bed, get right in my face and start to purr loudly. Any time between 3 and 4 AM.
-
Well at least it sounds like she is getting some good sleep :roll:
I'll sleep on the couch with your dog ;D

The only way to the kitchen is through the living room. Everyone in my house loves to get up in the night and have a sip of water, a sip of bourbon, a cigarette, or piss in the half bath... why? I don’t know. The dog snores, but I can put up with her...

It’s been many days since I also got a good night’s sleep, but I have no one to blame. I’ve been feeling so strange I even considered but finally rejected the possibility that little bug going around caught up to me.
-
And I've quit the club. Sleeping like a baby lately.
Don't worry, I'll likely rejoin at a later date.
I've re-upped my membership. In bed at 11pm last night. Awake at 3:30am. And that was it. Resisted the urge to login. Tried my best to get back to sleep, with no luck.

I don’t have a crazy fear of Covid-19, but it does keep me awake some nights. My dreams of late are either dystopian, apocalyptic, or some court case or card game that I’m trapped inside. Maybe a piece of evidence that has a ten part foundation for admissibility and I can only remember 8 steps before I get tripped up in court and have to start over. My head hurts some days when I wake up, because I have been going through this mental exercise all night.

I’m awake at odd hours, but I really don’t care. Tomorrow is Saturday, I don’t have a goddamn thing I have to do. I am caught up on all my cases. Just a few clients sending text messages. But I really have nothing to keep me awake. Wife is at work, the bed is empty. The kids are asleep. So is the dog. So I don’t mind being awake, because there’s absolutely no one here to fuck with me, or any problems to keep me awake.
-
Wife is at work, the bed is empty.
My bed is going to be empty tonight also. Just sayin.

2:30 and all is well. Well, except I'm wide awake.

Time zone, but I'll be there soon enough
Update: Last time I saw the clock was 3:39. Woke up little before 5:00. Hopefully I'll be able to get some more sleep before going to my dad's.

3:30 and all is well.
Except for the owl that is outside my window making a racket.
Whhhooooo, whooooo, whooo
An owl, I said.

I got the new 12 Pro Max yesterday. So up and down all night, updating software and transferring 150 Gb of information. Then I started reading for my course in Christian mysticism. In other words, I got no sleep last night.
-
Was finally getting sleepy so I went to bed tossed and turned for an hour, and now I'm wide awake. I know as soon as I go back out to my living room, I'll get really sleepy, fall asleep on the couch and wake up sore.

Yep, that's a page out of my playbook. Toss and turn on a comfy mattress. Come out and lay on the couch. 5 times out of 10 I fall asleep in 20 minutes. And yes, I wake up sore from the couch sleep.

Welp, that is about it. You come and check in and leave. It is one of the most boring clubs in the whole world because members of the club don't normally show up at the same time. In fact, I don't think I've been to the club and encountered someone else. Boring for sure, that's why there are no membership dues to be a member.
-
Oh the bourbon works great, except I get told I snore and stink of the bourbon. I had 3 beers. It wasn’t enough. Maybe 2 hours sleep.

Dan tells me I snore when I drink bourbon also. He even recorded me one night, the brat!
Better than snoring all the time like he does.
-
My theory is I always snore. It’s only noticed when I fall asleep first. I only fall asleep first if I drink.

Stay away from Ambien. I think it permanently damaged my sleep. Now I shout a lot in my sleep and also hit my wife (gently so far) or throw myself out of the bed. My guess is that the paralysis sauce that immobilizes a sleeping person so that I can dream about e.g. killing things with my bare hands becomes insufficient from time to time.
-
Advil PM works. Good for 5 or 6 hours tops. No pain. And decent sleep. Takes about an hour to take effect so get a book and within an hour, sound asleep.

I could sleep if I wanted to. But I don’t want to. Sleep is boring.

When our kids were young I sometimes worked three jobs to keep food on the table. I rarely got more than four hours of sleep and always told my wife I could sleep when I got old.
Well, guess what? I got old and now I can't function very well unless I get at least seven hours. The kids are all grown and I'm mostly retired so it worked out pretty well. I even wake up before my alarm sometimes.
-
I still wake up about the time I would have before I retired. Guess it is hard to break a long habit.
-

Same. For the last 15 months I haven't worked. I still wake up at 4:45-5:00 every morning.
-
Been years since I worked. Still, 5 AM it's rise
and shine. Yeah...rising is the best I can do with my old arthritic body.
Then there's the morning the female cat gets lonely and comes in at 4 AM. At least a loud purr is better than a buzzing or clanging alarm. :D
-
Lately I’ve been in bed and lights out at 2 or 3 am, and awake at 9 or 10. Pandemic hours. Not much going on anywhere. I’ve been in court only a half dozen times this year. Everything else has been on Zoom, so I typically have shorts and espadrilles on from the waist down.
-
2 in the a.m. and finally getting that sleepy feeling. So would it be "better late than never" or is it too early in the morning to say that??
-
3 am. Watching Full Metal Jacket.

Woke up about 2:30 this morning. Going back to sleep just wasn't working. After an hour the "wake up" cat joined me. She snuggled in and purred as I petted her. Finally crawled out of warm blanket and flipped on the coffee.
Wish Shiela was closer
We could find something to do since we're not sleeping. ;D

Warm blankets and hot coffee... I think we add a steamy hot shower and there will be plenty to keep us occupied :emot_kiss:

Glad to see I'm not the only one with sleep trouble.. My biggest issue is I typically wake up threw the night, hard as a rock and the wife just isn't up for a nid slumber romp :'(
-
Didn’t sleep well last night, so was in bed by 7-8 tonight. She came to bed around 1:30 and that woke me. So a couple hours later, here I am sipping bourbon with a beer chaser thinking and posting about food.
-
Got to sleep around midnight. Woke up at 3 a.m. Wondering now if I’m likely to fall asleep again.
-
Been over three weeks since the surgery and I have not slept but maybe two hours each night, if that. I read, doze off, wake up, read some more, waiting for morning. A few times I have made a pot of coffee at 2 in the morning. Even surfed KB a couple of times in the middle of the night. Confined to sleeping in a recliner with a huge arm immobilizer doesn't help. This is one definition of sucks.

Is there a "CAN SLEEP CLUB" category?
I've slept 12 hours each of the last 2 days. It's ridiculous. Wake up and 4 hours later I'm talking a nap. at 3 pm, I lay down for a nap and sleep a few hours. In bed at 10pm and sleep until 6am.
Not complaining (yet).

I have slept a lot recently. I think it may be a form of depression. I’m not too excited about being awake. 😂😂😂

Woken up by an erotic dream at 3:33am. Tried but couldn't get back to sleep. 2 hours later and here I am.
Guess I'll go for a walk, or is 38 degrees too chilly for a walk. Guess I'll find out. ttfn :-*

Wouldn't 5:30 am be too dark for a walk? :o
That reminds me.. I was reading that someone asked on Twitter whether women would do anything differently if men would just disappear off the face of the earth for the next 24 hours. A common response was that women would start going for walks and runs at night (others would leave the door unlocked, sleep with the window open, etc)

Yes it's dark, but your eyes adjust and can see well enough. Just outdoor lights that people have on (porch lights/lights on the side of a garage) gives enough light to see. I'm only a little afraid of monsters jumping from the bushes. Complete darkness I do not do.
Back in my mid 30's I would get up and run at 5am in the morning.

Been up since 2:30.
4:13am now.
Wish it had been an erotic dream that woke me up. Nope. It was an owl. And almost 2 hours later he's still "hoo"ing
Hoo Hoo
I have my handguns nearby, but I need a shotgun.

Owls are protected and kill lots of pesky rodents.
It's spring...as long as you're up help him find a girl friend.
Of course that will mean more little owls :D

That's true. There's a big difference between how many people read the forums and how many actually participate, with a surprising number never posting even once and presumably registering only to be able to see the 'hidden' (to guests) forums.

I cant yet comfortable and my legs are starting to ache. Put a heavy migraine on top of it, and I'm still up two and a half hours later. Staring at screens isn't helping much either.

I had to pop 3 ibuprofen, they seem to be kicking in a little.
It could have been that leftover chocolate silk pie washed down with three fingers of bourbon and a whole bottle of Bordeaux.

I'm in my 30's and I run at 5am. Have quit a lot of streetlights too. The facts I live a few blocks from the police station helps keep the monsters at bay
I was up until a little at 5am watching Ozark before I fell asleep. My migraine woke me up around 8:45. Took two 600mg ibuprofen I get from the VA and now I'm hoping for a little more sleep

It barely takes any alcohol for me to get a headache and become very sleepy. Then I wake up at 3 am feeling wired. Sadly red wine and bourbon are at the top of the list, so these days I just stay away from booze altogether :(

Another worried filled uncomfortable, sleepless night.

Coming to the club meeting.
Woke up at 1:30 AM and finally giving up on falling asleep again at 3:00 AM.
Was really tired when I went to bed at 9:30. As usual was asleep in a few minutes. When I woke just didn't feel tired anymore. Know I'll pay for this later tho'.

Sounds like my nights recently. I mentioned to our oldest about the constant 3am wakeup. She sent me this...
"The Devil’s Hour: This Is Why You Might Feel Spooked Out At 3am
If you’ve ever woken up at around three in the morning and felt like something wasn’t quite right, then you may actually be onto something.
It’s not just a case of middle-of-the-night jitters but you are slap bang in the middle of the Devil’s Hour - and, if you believe the myths, you may not be alone.
The 3am time slot is regarded by paranormal experts as a time when pure evil - either demons or entities from the spirit world - make their presence felt.
Many of us will wake up in the middle of the night, either from a bad dream or without any reason at all, feeling a chill in the air or a worrying feeling in your gut.
We might simply put this down to our brains not quite being in state that is able to think rationally - but there are also those who believe the reason is a lot more sinister.
The thinking behind the specific time of 3am is that it is a deliberate mocking of the death of Jesus Christ, who, according to ancient writing, died in the middle of the afternoon - at 3pm."

and this https://www.considerable.com/health/sleep/three-am-wake-up-reason/
I'll go with the latter.

If that is the case, I have spent many a night awake during the Devil's hour. Not with the Devil. Just reading a book in hopes of falling back asleep. Though some devilish thoughts did come to mind... 8)

I have found zopiclone 7.5 mg to be very helpful. It has no side effects and has a subtle sneaky way about it I like. Takes about 45 minutes to work. Failing that I recommend a cart load of alcohol.

My upstairs neighbors kept me up until 1 or 2am last night. No, unfortunately it isn't what you think.
They were just having a REALLY loud conversation or argument, and I think their TV was on too. It did not seem that they were being loudly seuxal, just loud.

My dear wifey works night shifts at a local hotel, but Fridays are her day off. So she comes in the room at 2 a.m. wakes me up, lights, bathroom, fish tank, etc. Then once I am fully awake, she lays down and starts snoring, tossing, turning, mumbling, and having myoclonic jerks. So I grab a pillow and blanket snd move downstairs at 3 a.m. There my son is involved in downloading Xbox 5.0 off the modem. He’s drinking, lights on, cursing, etc. and wants my help. Jezzus Christ. So I finally went back upstairs to try and get a little sleep around 6 a.m. Of course, that’s when the rather naughty videos start coming in. Maybe I will sleep tonight.

A while back, I was not in a very good place, and I distinctly remember mixing my tequila with Nyquil.

Instead of that, I’d go for Benadryl (cough syrup), as, it is known for its ability to make people drowsy, doesn’t require a prescription and can even take care of the occasional cough on the side.

Cable channels like Showtime have resumed airing soft core porn in the wee hours. While I’m sure that programming has been on recently and continuously, I haven’t seen this much of it in decades; multiple movies on multiple channels.
While they probably are really fucking, you can’t really see any penetration, so I finally turned on CNN to get depressed at the news. I mean if I want to see penetration, I know whose posts to check.

Wait...Milwaukee a big city? ;D ;D You will be fine. A little tired maybe. Their downtown is very nice since they modernized it, if that is where you will be staying.

More Wauwatosa area. Not too far from Froedert Hospital. To me it is a big city. I've been to Chicago once, and did not care for it. I was with my dad and he was driving, and I was still nervous.

I can see someone being nervous never having driven in a large city before. I thought I could handle big city driving until I drove in Los Angeles. Chicago has four lanes going in each direction. L.A. has six or eight lanes going in each direction on some of their freeways.

I'm used to the traffic. Even in LA, yes it was on a larger scale, but it didn't faze me.
The thing that freaked me out in LA was motorcycles zooming between lanes when we're creeping along at 5-15 mph. These guys were going 55 on their two wheelers. CRAZY. Then, I find out it's perfectly legal. The tour guide told us lawmakers okayed it to help keep emissions down. Seems a idle bike produces more than a moving one.
The other thing was those signs warning of pedestrians. At first I was thinking...do people like to play Frogger? Then it hit me, it was for immigrants crossing the border illegally. Seriously, they had to show the child being dragged airborne almost airborne.

I have found, as I am sure most have, that as you become more familiar with an area, the easier it is to drive. I live in a city of approximately 1 million with nothing that could be considered true freeways. We have an 80 km ring road and a couple of cross city arteries but nothing on the scale of SoCal. Went to San Diego a couple of years ago after having been away for 33 years. Really big change in the size of the freeways since I had lived there. Took about 15 minutes to get back into the swing of freeway driving. Rule number one -- being tentative in acting on your decisions is dangerous.

WTF! Woke a 12:30 this morning. Tossed and turned until about 2 AM. Neville, my male cat had enough and left the bed a little before me.
Lucky for me I don't have much to do today. Going in for some same day surgery. I'm assured of at least an hour and a half of sleep under anesthesia.
Bummer is, I'm not allowed to eat and can only have water and a little black coffee up until 7 AM.
-
Thought after all my body was put through yesterday with my surgery, I be able to sleep good.
I did drop off soon as I hit the pillow, but 1:30 I was awake. Tried to fall back to sleep for half an hour, but soon realized that wasn't going to happen.
Both cats are looking at me like WTF!

Your waking of the cats is revenge towards all cats for the fact that our cat just loves to jump off the bed at 5 AM, get a bite to eat, then come back up stairs and start meowing looking for permission to come back on the bed. It would be nice if she would just be quiet and jump back up.
-
I feel like death. The last time I looked at the watch was 5:30 am. I've had enough coffee to kill a horse, and I can feel my synapses firing slightly.
-
In bed at 10:30 last night. Awake at 3:30. Laid there until I got up at 4:45.
Decided to leave work early when I fell asleep at my desk. Woke up with drool coming down my chin. If a picture surfaces, they're fired.

Last time I remember seeing was 2:46. Then I woke up at 7

So I'm sleeping over at a friend. Because of a couple of unexpected things, we have to share a bed. Between her having the grip-strength of Hercules and hogging the blanket, and her dog making the air unbreathable every couple of minutes, I barely slept. Did I mention, she gets up at 4am?
Unless the house is on fire, there's no reason to get up at that time.

I shouldnt be posting here, I slept nearly 16 hours yesterday.

And I also shouldn't, as am literally ahead of my time, lol. (Tonight, gonna stay up all night no matter what the consequences are. (Spoiler: non-alcoholic hangover))
BUT HERE WE ARE
Sorry, no memes for bolded text as all either not allowed or too scary.
-
As I said, now here after just 4 hours of sleep, hoping to get some more.

After that, I couldn’t sleep for well, about 3 hours then fell asleep for 3 hours and here we are.
-
Woke up an hour earlier than planned
Due to a very weird nightmarish dream.
-
I was asleep, and then woke up an hour or so ago, and now I can't fall back to sleep. I'm tired, but just cant get comfortable. Already tried sleeping on the couch, and now I'm back in bed. Gonna try again and if I dont fall asleep within the next half hour, I'm going to the gym.

I’ve been doing the sofa lately, with extra pillows and blankets. I am sleeping better there, with the flannel jammies. And some lube. And your photos.

Between the pain in my head, and the caffeine I consumed to try and relieve said pain, I may not get much sleep at all, and yes, I know staring at my phone screen wont help either.

There is a certain zombie quality to it. I’m actually relieved that the foster child is gone. One less person asking me to order sushi at 11 o’clock at night.

Sushi at 11? If I eat anything after 9, it has to be something good for me, like grapes, almonds, yogurt, or a "banana". Unless I'm put drinking and I need food, but otherwise its lite snacking.
Edit: Still not a wink of sleep.
-
These kids all have food scarcity issues, and it’s not uncommon for them to eat five or six times a day. The service tells us to hold them to a strict diet. But when you see a kid crying over a plate full of food, are you going to enforce a strict diet? I’ve just always let my fosters eat what they want, when they want. But it gets to be a big pain in the ass after a while.
Well I finally got maybe six hours sleep. And when you put that with the two I had earlier, that’s eight hours. Doesn’t make up for the deficit Sunday night, but I should be a little more human today. Making the coffee right now.
-
Still havent slept, but I climbed into a scolding hot shower with my shower buddy and threw a bunch of pleasure at the pain in my head. Still ha e a headache but the migraines have passed, and I was actually feeling good enough to go to the store. I can feeling it creeping on back, but I think its because I have to call my cousin in a little bit. Being SUCH A BITCH!!!😡
-
If I had to work today, I’d still be struggling to wake up and get ready for work. As it is, the office is closed due to weather, so naturally my eyelids went up like window shades at 5 AM.
Sorry I’m posting so much today, but I got kicked off Facebook for “inciting violence.” I told a friend, “Be careful, or we’ll have to take you out back and beat the shit out of you.” It was a joke, but of course algorithms don’t *understand* jokes. So KB is my only outlet for the day, and I’m stuck at home with a little wintery mix and sub freezing temperatures.
I just wish the weatherstripping around my doors was better. I can feel a cold breeze blowing through the living room. Fucking Texas.
-
I got kicked off Twitter for 24 hours once because I said something like "misogynists should off themselves" :emot_laughing:
-
Three nights ago I got zero hours of sleep because of my migraine, and I couldnt sleep at all the next day.
Two nights ago, I hot 10 hours of sleep, and slept on and off throughout the day.
Last night I got several hours, but broken sleep and I kept waking up, this time it was Allan's head that kept me up 😘
-
Yes, there are good reasons for interrupting sleep. ;D :emot_kiss: :emot_kiss:
-
Woke up early in the morning, likely 20 minutes ago.
Owing to a certain dream about something, something terrible.
The city was flooding...
-
There are medications that lessen the impact of bad dreams. I used to suffer from insomnia and my neurologist put me on mirtazapine (Remeron). It helped me sleep well, but with stressful dreams. He added suvorexant (Belsomra) to the prescription and now all is well. I continue to have stressful dreams from time to time, but they're far less disturbing than before.
-
Thank you for your concern Hilda,
Although, it isn't that bad, as most nights are dreamless for me, as for Insomnia, I do have something prescribed for it.

I am going on three days with little sleep. I'm a business owner and have occasional anxiety attacks. This time of year is always slim for us and I cannot get my mind to stop telling me i'm going to lose everything. Every year this happens and every year I am good, but fuck. Prescription pills and I am still waking up at 1:30 like clock work.
-

I’m an attorney, and I had a lot of financial problems going into the pandemic. And I spent three years living hand to mouth as a solo practitioner, working off the kitchen table and trying not to let the family know how bad things really were.
I’m sure you’ve tried everything, so don’t be offended. But here are my secrets for sleeping when you’re worried as shit. First, clear your mind. Do not allow yourself to think about things. If possible, I have absolutely no inner conversations. When worries would appear in my head, I would picture myself putting them in a barn, and closing the door. “I’m not going to think about that right now.”
Some nights that barn would absolutely be bulging at the seams, but I always tried to return to a neutral quiet space. I found that if I could do that for about 15 minutes, I would usually drift off and sleep.
If you have any training in meditation, another technique is to recite a mantra. I have two different ones. But if you focus on the mantra, it also helps clear your mind. Because it’s difficult to worry about taxes when you are mentally reciting the ancient mystics. “ Oṃ maṇi padme hūṃ.”
If those things fail, there’s always masturbation. LOL. Wishing you the best, because I certainly empathize. I’ve been fortunate. And I survived the pandemic and related financial downturns. Things are going much better for me now. I don’t have much trouble sleeping.
-
That's too bad. Pornhubby has some good points. Even something as simple as focusing on your breathing and counting the seconds for each inhale and exhale could help. When stressed breathing becomes short and quick, but the mind and body at rest works better with slow deep breaths. In through the nose out the mouth. There are however, those times where no matter what you do or try, you just can't get to sleep or back to sleep.
Hope this passes sooner and your able to.get good rest.
I on the other hand slept great last night.
-
Took an hour nap about 6 pm -7 pm. Bad decision. Went to bed at 11 pm and just laid there. Finally got out of bed at 11:30, and here I sit watching Bohemian Rhapsody on FX at 3 in the morning.

The Queen movie? I haven't watched it (not a fan) but I would have thought it would keep you awake. Or is that the idea? :)
-
It just happened to be what was on.
I loved the movie, loved the music.
3rd Tim watching it.
Fell to sleep at 5 am, awake at 7:30
-
That’s a great movie!
Truly Freddie Mercury was a legend!
And apart from the music part, the movie also explained the backstory very well.
Never knew that Freddie Mercury was of Indian descent.

Yesterday up at 3 AM, this morning only made it to 2AM.

I think it ruined my evening. My kids came over, and we drank for three or four hours. So anybody’s guess if I’m going to sleep good or bad.
-
Been around quarter to 5 and about more than 30 minutes since I woke up
I don't know what to do as even Benadryl has failed it's job to keep me down. Damn this cold sucks.
-
Like at around 2 in the night.
Trying to fall asleep but can’t.
Being the idiot I am, started shivering/shaking a little bit, (reason unknown to me), and consequently the bed shook. Not realising that I was the cause, I bolted right back up, turning on the light, fearing that An EQ was happening … :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm:
I know, totally stupid.

You must be in Kolkata or something. Always wondered why you had the new Wordle 12 hours before I did!

03:30 CDT, and I’m still at the ducking office. My millennial boss just loves to dump all the shit he doesn’t want to on the old man. Three briefs to file today. I have been licensed longer than he has been alive. And I have depositions scheduled in my own cases later today.

I was up most the night last night. Woke up at 12:30 and could not get back to sleep. Me expecting chemo early in the morning on three hours of sleep.
I did get close to an hour during first chemo drug. Nurse saw me sleeping and turned off the light. Nothing like that extra TLC! Yes, she was a cute one... even in her mask and face shield. ;D

The same dental hygienist has been taking care of my family's teeth for as long as I can remember, yet if I met her in the street I wouldn't recognize her — unless she recognized me first, and I heard a familiar soothing voice.
I do hope the chemo therapy goes well. You're in my thoughts.

It's a part of your kitchen
As for thread, power did get back on like 10-15 later.
But sleepless again due to suffocation-induced-hallucinations/nightmares/whatever-the-heck-happened-to-me.

I’m not fucking with you. I’m older, and I have these hot and cold spells in the night. I wake up one moment and I’m freezing and shivering. And I turn on the furnace and grab blankets, and then I wake up drenched in sweat. So I don’t know what the answer is.
I just know you know the Wordle answer about eight hours before we do.

Ate like hell, feel like hell. Woke up in bed at 3:30 with acid reflux, and here I am 1-1/2 hours later still feeling yucky after eating fried foods.

We'll Jules, I'm joining you in the club.
I'm having another stay in the hospital. Woke up at 3:00 to pee and laying here awake ever since.
I'm doing ok now. Had another incident of bowl obstruction. It's caused by scar tissue from surgery I had years ago. Was on liquid diet yesterday and hoping for solid food today.
Meanwhile I can't f***ing get back to sleep! >:(
-
I've never been able to sleep in a hospital.
All the beeping and nurses walking the hallway and the hall light coming in the room. Then the person sharing your room that is moaning or snoring or has the TV on because she can't sleep.
They built a new wing in the hospital near us that has single rooms. I've visited someone there, but I've never stayed in one. I'm always in the double room.
Hope you get some sleep and feel better.

One word about sleeping in hospital...DRUGS! :emot_laughing:
-
I woke up at 2:30 last night, and tossed a couple of time, could feel myself waking up more and more. Did the daily wordle, and was going to come post here, but forced myself to put the phone down. Put an old season of bake-off on the tv, and fell back asleep rather quickly.

I got all comfy on the couch with a good neck pillow and soft blankets, enjoyed a wank, and fell back asleep around 6 AM. I just woke up, 3 1/2 hours later. And it is Saturday. I don’t have to do anything. Except maybe :aol_poundit: again.

Went home to visit my estranged SO and first born for the holiday. SO usually works nights, so no problems. Tonight she took the night off. Woke me up at 1 a.m., tossing in bed. Then again at 1:15, 1:30, 1:45…. I finally moved downstairs to the sofa. Reminds me again why I visit so infrequently. We’ve always had this problem. She tosses about, snores loudly, and has myoclonic jerking. I tend to sleep in one position all night. Not tonight. LOL.

It's a bunch of short random 15 minute animations, CG stuff, and live action shows. Oh, and there is CG boobies for those interested...

Horny girlfriend was feeling extremely frisky before bed. I fingered her through several intense orgasms while kissing her on the mouth and neck and sucking on her nipple. Then she sucked me to hardness and I railed her for about half an hour while she came like a little banshee about once a minute. Now she’s doing cute little snores and I’m lying awake thinking, am I actually going to be able to handle her? I’ve never met a woman who’s ever approached my level of friskiness until now. Holy fuck, this woman might kill me.
What a way to die, though…
Thanks for listening. Now maybe I can get some sleep…

Hope you’re asleep by now sir. And indeed, it seems like you’ve met your match. ;D ^-^

Not getting much sleep last few days. Pain in my left leg is keeping me up. It's from the bone cancer in my left hip. Pain killers I've been prescribed are only taking the edge off.
Might not be posting much but will try to keep you all informed. :emot_kiss:
-
Love you Bob. Always wishing you well.
-
Thanks sweetie. All the support here really helps. No doubt I'll be nodding off in my chair later today. :facepalm:
-
Not so much cant sleep, but erratic sleep. Couple hours here and ther, half hour during the day, but then I'm up, like now. few mor minutes and I'll take wordle lol
-
I fucking slept until 10:30 AM. I can’t remember the last time that happened.

All last week, I was helping a friend baking dog treatsforna vending even so I havent had much sleep because would work, and then go over there and help bake until the the early hours of the morning. I've also had life going on and not much sleep was happening. well yesterday was one eventi helped her with down in waupun, and she had one today but thay one was cancelled because of horrible weather so I got to sleep and boy did I ever.
I was in bed yesterday evening around 5:00 pm, slept until about 8:00pm was up till an little after midnight, and then slept till 11:00 am. I had taken the weekend off of work so I could help her out but instead I got sto sleep.
-
Wide awake at midnight, so some more drinks it is!

All day long I said that I was going to go to bed at 10pm. But here I am.

Hello from 1:30 am ;D

I have slept well three nights in a row. I think getting that Medicare thing taken care of on Friday is the explanation. So much worry and anxiety was taken off my plate.

La petite mort (French pronunciation: [la p(ə)tit mɔʁ]; "the little death") is an expression that means "the brief loss or weakening of consciousness" and in modern usage refers specifically to "the sensation of post orgasm as likened to death."

I haven't even bothered to post here as it would all be "copy/paste". Pain in my legs wakes every morning. It's a matter of the pain meds wearing off.
I can usually catch a cat.nap in my recliner later. i.e. The cat jumps in my lap demanding I put up the footrest. He then takes his place there between my legs and we grab 40 winks.
Well, late this morning I'd just started the crossword and that's all I remember. Zonked out and didn't return until 2:00 PM. Guess my body said it's time to catch up on sleep.
So...mark this an anti-can't sleep club post. :facepalm:
-
You deserve all the rest you can get Bob. And I’m sure the cat didn’t mind your extra time with the footrest up.
-
I've had insomnia getting my car a lot I could find someone and we'll pull up so when they walk by you look at my gorgeous beautiful erection we haven't two or three in a year actually watch
-
Going on 9pm here, which is usually no big deal, but long story short I only had about 7 hours of sleep total yesterday, after being up a LOT longer than I expected the day before.
-
Awake since 3:20. It is 6:00 now
Campground has really shitty internet. What else is new. No cell reception.
I have been getting a lot of reading done though.

Lately, I’ve been falling asleep around 11 PM, then waking up at 3 AM. I take my medications, bathroom break, etc., check the news from Ukraine, and fall back asleep around 4 AM. And hopefully I sleep until 8 AM. So I’m getting eight hours, but I do it in two shifts. It’s been like this for quite a while.
-
Been up all damn night. Sunday evening I started having some pain in my right leg and back. I have a herniated disc but hasn't bothered me up until now, if that's what this is.
Went to bed about 11:00, but laying down seemed to make things worse. Got up and sat in my chair hoping to fall asleep there. Got about an hour.
At 5:00 AM I was able to take another dose of my pain meds and they've taken the edge off enough that I can make my way to the VA and see what they can do.
F**k, I'm tired. Too old for this crap. Take care friends.
-
Oh Bob! :'(
So sorry youre going through all this! :'(
Wish there was something we could do! Always thinking about you love 💋❤
-
Thanks for the care and concern. I'm all checked in at the VA emergency department. Don't know what they can do but maybe something stronger for the pain.

Are you really in pain or just hoping for a cute nurse? ;D On a serious note, hope you feel better soon!
-
I was up and down all night myself Bob. Slept from midnight to 3:30, and then again from five to almost 8 AM. But it’s the realization that I have to go back to the office today. Last week of the last month of the last quarter of the year. Everybody is still “working remotely“ which means “not really working at all“ but I am the captain of the ship, so I am responsible for the end result. Hope you are feeling better.

Sciatica! That's my latest adventure in the world of medical aches and pains. Sounds like an old man ailment.
Oh wait...I am old and just had another birthday
They gave me a couple prescriptions that should fix me up. Heading home soon and hopefully get some sleep. :emot_kiss:

Nah, even younger people have sciatica problems. Glad to hear it wasn't anything worse ;D

Your online life looks pretty damn good from where we are standing. I assure you, something will go wrong, but worrying about it will do absolutely nothing to prevent it or change it. So just relax and enjoy life baby. You’ve got so much to be thankful for.
Love you.

Had two bad nights of sleep. Strange beds hasn't helped. Different mattress every few days.
But good news. Last night I slept like a baby. 8 glorious hours without waking up.
-
Can't fall asleep. Irritated and stressed about life. Heart burn on top of normal aches.

Littlw thing between me and my cousin. I'm sure he absolutely hated me texting him that at 2 in the A of the M.
Tuff cookies buttercup LoL.

I had some good coffee and great sex, and now I'm wide awake and bored. I ran out of NYT games, and botched two of them, but now I'm just chilling watching Grimm on Prime, and leaving posts for you lot. 😘

I had the hangover Sunday. Didn’t really get up until 4 pm, So I had a little something to eat, went back to bed, took a sleeping pill, and added another 10 to the total. So I slept 20+ of the last 24 hours. Time to make the donuts…

Thank you Hilda! It was about 3 in the A of the M that I fell asleep for a good couple hours. The last time I saw on the clock was 2:52

Different night same thing. My brain won't leave me alone. I just keep replaying it in my head every time I close my eyes.
-
I mentioned how these anti-convulsants I take result in hyperactivity of the brain at night. Very fitful light sleep with a circular pattern of annoying dreams. Tonight they were set to “The Weight” by The Band. Finally, I woke up with a headache and decided just to stay awake awhile. See if I can’t get things to “simmer down.” I will be tired as shit at work though…
-
Sounds a bit like mey nights without the anti-convulsants. Good luck at work today
-
One thing that helps me sleep is a weighted blanked the one I use is 15LB
-
I don't think I could handle weight when I sleep..
I only use a light weight microfiber blanket even in our coldest Minnesota below zero nights.
Glad it works for you.

I loved having one. I especially loved it in the winter, or just sitting watching TV in the winter. Mine was 'kid'napped. Meaning, my kid took it. I miss it, but Dan doesn't, he hated it. We have a big fluffy comforter and that is nice, along with being snuggled from behind by Dan.

Guess I'm in the club today.
I went to bed a little early, bout 10:30. I woke thinking it was 4:30-5:00. Nope, only 11:30. Got the n a whole hour. Tried going back to sleep but laid there for awhilesit a before drifting of
Woke up again at 4:30, made another BR visit and back to bed. Nothing, I just stared at the ceiling.
Gave it up at 6:00. Got up and started a fresh pot of coffee.
-
Sorry to hear, B.
I was in bed at 10:30. Fell to sleep. Got up to pee. Thinking it was 4 or 5. Nope. 12:08. Luckily fell back to sleep quickly.
Sleeping in the middle one's bed because Dan is still sick. Sleeping pretty good for the most part.
-
I was up at 1 am. Started the mini crossword struggled and decided to try and go back to sleep. Half hour later I finished it. Stayed up for another half hour going through my sleep routine, but was overstimulated
-
I slept a little bit, but wide awake now. However, I know we turn the clocks back an hour in only 45 minutes, so I am not concerned. LOL. Doing my NYT puzzles.

I wish they would get rid of that bloody time-change twice a year! Why can't we be on standard time (or daylight time) all year long?
-
We’ll look who shows up on Guy Fawkes Day! Woo for posting!
-
I went to bed at 2:45.
M and I were doing a puzzle, then I sat on the couch reading my Kindle. I looked at the clock and figured I better lay down. Got comfy on the couch and just laid there. Last I looked at the clock it was 3:30. Woke up at 6 to a dog barking somewhere nearby. Sat up and looked out the window and there was a deer on the other side of the fence. Laid back down and nothing.
Nap time during NFL games today.
-
Was in bed by 10:30 last and woke up at 4:0 to pee. Usually I can go back to sleep right away for a couple more hours. Nope...not happening.
Laid there until.5:00 and threw in the towel and gave it up as a lost cause. My left hip is hurting some now that my neuralstimulator is out and I can get a permanent device imbedded on December 18th. That week of being pain free spoiled me. :roll:
-
Last three nights have been hell. Get a couple hours of sleep and wake up. End up falling asleep in my chair when I'm trying to watch TV or read the paper. :facepalm:
Last night I got 6 hours of sleep in my chair but my legs aren't working for s**t.
OK... Today's quota for whining is used up. :D

Rarely post here but last night I had trouble getting to sleep. Not something I have much experience with. I one of those head hits the pillow and I'm out.
In a talk yesterday with another of my nurses we decided to try cutting out an opiate I've been taking before bedtime. So last night I skipped it.
Went to bed and laid there for over an hour. I'm not used to that and I started to get a little achy from just laying there.
Got up and started a new audiobook. Listened for a hour and a half until I started yawning. Hit the bed again at 1:30 and went right out this time.
Had a good sleep until 7:30 this morning.
My nurse did say this could be a problem and if it persisted there's something called Melatonin that will help. For now I'll just see how things go. I think my body will soon get used to not having that opiate soon. It was a very small dose so for now I'll just see how things go.
-
I have the same experience when I stop drinking. Your body gets used to the sleep aid, and then does not know what to do when you lay down without it.
