I couldn't sleep at all last night for the exception of one hour. So today I nap for 2 hours, now I'm not tired and so starts the cycle. I just want to go to bed and sleep. No, warm milk doesn't work for me. Herbal tea, don't have any. Ranting doesn't help either. Over to you CS'ers.

Take a walk in the night air. half an hour should do it. no water afterwards you'll only get up to urinateafter a few hours.

if that don't work call me in the morning

























i'm going to bed

masturbation works for me!!

Pills and ninety proof?

Only kidding, gentlepaws. I'm sorry you can't sleep, but I don't know any tricks to help.

Normally for me too, but I'm out of fresh material.

How was the jam ?

::hugs::

Been there....plenty of times. I'd bet that you've had something on your mind. And, if like me caffeine will jack me up and make sleep impossible, (tea is as bad or worse than coffee in the evenings)..then I drag ass the next day. At times I've found that the only way out of the cycle is to get up and get out. I've had to get out and away from home for several hours so I could wake up enough that I don't sleep until late in the evening. I love when I can or do get up early in the morning around daylight and feel good enough to stay up. Generally, if I sit in a chair and have a couple of cups of coffee then cook breakfast and wash the dishes I'm good to go and usually have killed a couple of hours before getting out of the house. I have a problem with just finding days that I really feel good and energetic which is not as often as I'd like. We're kind of close to the same age and one of my suspicions is a possible parathyroid tumor which is common in people our age...do a little research and check that out. If you've been losing bone mass...problems with teeth or spine then it's a possibility. Supposedly, doctors often overlook the condition and it is a benign tumor that can be removed with a 20 minute mini-surgery procedure. I've been waiting for a year so my insurance will kick in so I can have my doctor to check into it. I should have already gone to the doctor for a physical and need to make an appointment soon.

Pretty great, actually. I met an older gentleman who could really pick a banjo - he did a great version of Bending the Strings. And there was a good size crowd tonight.

I bet that would work..

One of my regrets, selling my 5 string.

That'll help. Thank you.

BamaBob, thanks but I just had a complete physical and other than a sudden spinal problem, I'm in good shape.

Yes, mine as well. I had a unique banjo - a six string! It had a banjo head, but was strung like a guitar. I've never seen another like it, and I wish I still had it. Anyway, slow deep breaths and put on some Sinatra and let ole blue eyes sing you off to dreamland - or there's always the pills and ninetyproof! Hope ya get to sleep soon, and may you have pleasent dreams!

My ex-husband had a 6-string before I met him. Always wanted to check that out.

Glad the jam went well.If you were just a little closer, I could check it out.

Oh, good Lord, you're only about ninety miles away. Take I-40 to exit 365 - that's Buttermilk Road - and take that exit. If you come in west bound, take a right. If east bound, a left and go back across the interstate and stay on the main road for about a mile. The Bradbury Community Center is on the left and will be full of cars on pickin' night - you can't miss it. We pick every Tuesday night, and every third Saturday night of the month. Admission is 1$ on Tuesdays and 2$ on Saturdays, and includes coffee, soda, and snacks. Come on down, ya'll!

Thanks, Countryboy.I may surprise you one day. My cousin lives in Knoxville.

I promise you will be most welcome! There are a lot of great people there, and we will look forward to seeing you.

I have found that I need to think really hard or be really interested in something sometimes for hours, I do have a study project that I can always get interested in and after I have read and done some writing ,I usually can get into such a meditation on the subject I am looking at, that I find my self falling asleep .

If you find a solution please let me know, haven't slept all night in months.
