Middle of the Night Club

I will probably be up all night again. I often get so tired that when I fall asleep, I sleep for 16 hours. Last night I slept for 22 hrs straight. I only got up at 9 pm, so little chance of sleep. I wonder how many there are of us who find things to do all night long...lol I have someone else in the house or I might clean...
 
I switched my breakfast to about 3:30 AM or so, give or take an hour, so that I could take advantage of the feeling one gets after having eaten, that sleepy feeling, you know? Because I so often wake up at 3 AM or so! It seems to be helping. Also, it cuts down on my nighttime eating, because I can more easily deal with an hour's wait until breakfast than I can a 4 hour one! Then I get back to sleep, get up in time to get ready for my day and have a huge cup of coffee at around 7:00 or 8:00 AM and I am ready for the day, well rested. It took me years to figure this one out! But it works for me.
 
Was at workshop today for brain injury. Topic was earthing and the research of environmental medicine.

I dont have link but conclusion was walking barefoot 30min daily on grass or some form of earth contact increases sleep quality. There are earthing mats for bed too that u plug in to socket.

I dont feel well riddled with pain and spasms again. i am grateful nonetheless for what i have.
 
I often can't sleep. When I was a workaholic I used the time to answer emails and get good analysis reports done. People would comment on it all the time "you sent me that email at 3 am?" Since 2016 I haven't been in workaholic mode, the whole thing fell apart after a couple decades. Now I'm awake and I have no idea what to do with myself. I am a total slob, and haven't done jack $shit for about 3 weeks. So I just did some dishes. But the big pots and pans and crocks need hand washed, so there they sit, and here I sit. Now sun should be coming up in a hour or two.
 
I have not checked in here for awhile, even though I started this thread and thought it would become a mainstay for me. I have been up in the middle of the night briefly a few times, but lately I had been sleeping quite well. That is until today. (Tonight?) LOL... anyway, a few minor things have added up to some major irritation in my life, not to mention that my T does not take my insurance, and I have to find a new T, I am up now for several hours, wide awake, ticked off and with no place to put this annoyance. I have a LONG fuse, rarely has it been set off, so I am trying to prevent that by writing here. It feels like my fuse is about to blow and well, no one wants that, most of all, ME! How do you spell aggrevated!?! I knew I would not be able to spell it, but that is how I feel times ten! Frustrated too. And so these emotions are keeping me wide awake.
