I need sleep
 
Hi,

I am barely awake even though have been up for a few hours. My body clock is sooooo confused by having to get up at 9:00 am for work after sleeping whenever I wanted for two weeks.
I went to bed at 6:30 am this morning after having been up all night. I woke up at 10:30 with no alarm because I did not have not go into work.


FOUR hours is not enough sleep. I had four hours the night before as well.

H, Bobby,

Yes. The weekend and the Monday holiday will be nice. That is good.

I am trying not to nap because tdoc doesn't think napping is good.

I stayed up to late last night watching csi on tnt. I was up till 2am, then
up again at 6am.

Heehee, Not normal for me.

But it was good, its snowed and snowed here.

And its bad right now. My husband is safe in Gary area.

I had two workshop's today, one got cancelled.

His comment, he was glad I was home. I didn't need to be out in
this either. Heehee, gues I am not a judge in the weather. But it
wasn't me really.

Fifty five dollar co-pay
 
Hi,

I had to pay a $55.00 co-pay at pdoc's office! I probably paid it the last two times in 2011 but was not paying attention.

Wow. Thank God for insurance.

Dear Mari

i hope you can get more sleep tonight also. it usually takes me a while to go back to a day schedule... going to a night owl schedule i can literally do overnight it seems! LOL.

my former pdoc also considered daytime napping poor sleep hygiene. he said resting was ok, and i seem to recall he said if you really need a nap, to set an alarm for no more than half an hour.

he was also very strongly against sleep deprivation because of its effects on bipolar mood (induces mania, and to those predisposed, mixed states) however, and when push came to shove, he would tell me, just sleep whenever you can. however, i was not working at the time ... you are sort of between the devil and the deep blue sea in that respect.

i send you peaceful, restful, sleep-regulatory vibes... :hug:

HI,

I think I took a nap for 1.5 hours in front of the tv. Now I am sleepy again because the meds have kicked in but I am trying to get work done because after the nap I am the mostly mentally alert I have been all day. :Head-Spin:
