Where I work we switch shifts every 6 weeks we work first of the week days 6 weeks then we go to end of the week nights 6 weeks(from 7 to 7). So my sleeping is all messed up and when I can't sleep I take a Tylenol PM or Advil Pm. I also love to read a good book either in print or on my computer.

As a rule I need a good eight hours of sleep otherwise I turn cranky...really cranky! Amy – wow, I don’t know how you can keep going with that little sleep.

I'm sure you'll have a great 2010. Linda - I've learned from experience that if I get up I end up even wider awake. Hubby can fall asleep in the length of time it takes me to write this comment. He's always taking power naps. I wish I could do that. Karen – it’s certainly a busy time of the year. I’m sure you’ll have a great 2010.

I didn't sleep any better last night, but I hit the ground running this morning anyway. Too many things to do to feel tired. I try not to take anything if I can help it. I suspect I should cut out the cup of tea I always have before I go to bed, but I really enjoy that cup of tea. Maria – it’s no fun, is it?

I like to think it will be better. I'm thinking on the positive side at any rate. I'll keep the emailing in mind. :grin: Susan – I think a lot of people will be glad 2009 is ending.

I take sleeping pills, but still only get about 4 hours of solid sleep. Last night we had our daughter sleeping on the floor (that is the rule, not in the bed with us, but on a little couch we have in our room) and she was coughing all night! So I got less sleep than normal. I never sleep through the night. I take sleeping pills, but still only get about 4 hours of solid sleep.

That will do it every time. It's rather annoying because I really want to watch or read, but I think that's why it works for me.
