Wanted to post this upfront:
This is how moderation looks:

my PDOC wants me to document my sleep hours and moods and she wants monthly drink numbers too.

numbers for the past week:

4-24 Mod 3 pints last day of festival!, mood= above baseline
4-25 AF, slept 7, mood= base line
4-26 mod 2 root beers, slept 6, mood= baseline
4-27 AF, slept 6, mood= baseline
4-28 AF, slept 7, mood= baseline
4-29 Mod 1 pint, slept 8, mood= baseline
4-30 AF
Units/drinks per week= 7

It is raining like crazy here all sorts of flash flood warnings phones alarming etc.
The water in the back yard always comes up about half way to the house, nothing we can do about it, just watch it creep forward.
supposed to rain all day.

WE are safe and fine. lots of other folks with water in their homes.
I think it is time to get flood insurance.

we are in a no flood zone.

Definite moderation

I hope you can get flood insurance. It sounds like it's a good idea and shouldn't be a problem. I hope you stay dry.

Sounds good, and flood insurance always is too.

Its been raining and tornadoes last night. Around this area and Lafayette.

So its now raining again here.

Went to sleep earlier than normal last night 11pm, and I am up early today, could not get back to sleep.
slept about 7 hours including my nap, was awake about 5;30am , probably just missed mari....(got out of bed at 6)
It is frustrating to me. Jeff is such a light sleeper that when ever I turn over in bed this disturbs him and he turns over too. I snore so he wears ear plugs.
I have to get out of bed so carefully and open the door very quietly which is difficult or I will wake him up completely, and I feel bad. Hattie cries for treats when ever I get up early because jeff gives them to her first thing in the morning. She will cry right outside our bedroom door and wake jeff up too, so I have to close her off from the bedroom areas then keep her back when I go to get more coffee.
Which I need to get right now.

Your nap really doesn't count. I'm sorry you didn't get a lot of sleep, Bizi
It must be tough to have to walk on egg shells in the am. I always feel guilty if I wake my husband up, too. It sounds like Hattie isn't helping matters either.

My husband's alarm goes off between 3:30-4:30am during the week and somehow I've managed to block it out, but some mornings he's loud, and I have a hard time going back to sleep in the morning because my anxiety gets my mind going immediately. It sucks. On the weekends Rocky walks all over us and it's impossible to ignore him because he weighs 26lbs.

Rocky is a big cat!
he would definitely wake me up too, that is why we have a no cat zone at night. And they cry a bit when we kick them out at night but we read for half an hour before lights out and they are quiet by then.
So naps don't count????
