Doing better.. but why am I awake?

Found this online.. not sure where.. ©Unknown
Doing better healthwise.. but for some reason my body thinks I'm supposed to be in another time zone.. /sigh.. Still have my ringer off during the day since I keep getting telephone calls at all hours of the morning.. Hubby has been nice to do this for me while I try to get some sleep these days.. I'll be okay soon.. I hope.. at least I'm not up too much with headaches.. I seem to get them in the very early morning but by that time I'm sleeping.. I just know when I had them when I wake up.. oh well.. could be a whole lot worse...

I wonder too if you'd do better in a different part of the country. Makes me think maybe with the issues you have with sleep and the horrible headaches you experience, that maybe something in the environment is making you ill.

I'm sure you thought of all this long ago though. I just wish there was something that could be done for you. I really do believe that for every illness there is a cure. It's just finding it! The answer for both of us is probably some hard to find endangered plant somewhere deep in the Amazon Forest. Oh well- what else can we both do in the meantime but to keep pushing along?

Take care of yourself, Elsie. I hope you get some quality sleep today and that you start to feel better very, very soon.

Eerie...the word I had to type in for the verification was "ressliz"- sounds like "restless".

Dear Elsie, I'm so sorry you are having a hard time. I have to say, about Jeannie's idea, when I lived in Dallas, I still was up all night long. Doesn't seem to matter, for me, anyway... I was thinking about this the other night. I'm a night person. That's just all there is to it. And trying to be something else is not working. I resent it. I can't do it. And it's making me sick. I wish I could just live on MY time and not some artificial time that everyone else thinks is proper. I have been taking my ambien at night, but even that doesn't work anymore. I still stay up until 3 or 4am then I can't wake up again until noon or so. Really whacked. Anyway... enough about me... I truly do hope you feel better soon. Love you.

Thanks for the well wishes :D I hope to get back to normal.. soon™

Yeah Jeannie I've often said I was born in the wrong latitude LOL. I actually was better in a warmer climate (when I lived in Puerto Rico) though I've re-adapted to a cooler climate.. Though one thing is for sure... I hate winter pure and simple and I know I go into depression when it's cold.. Right now it's cold.. rainy and friggin' windy (40°F with a windchill of 30°F).. frickin' burrrrrrrr..

I'm just happy I'm sleeping off the headaches rather than writhing in pain so I can't complain much.. though I feel I'm wasting most of the day in bed.. SKW very much agreed.. you and I are definately night people.. and I feel I get more accomplished when the dang phone isn't ringing.. though I feel bad that I can't contribute much here at home like washing clothes and stuff since my neighbors would not be appreciative of that machine going at 2 am...

Tell me about it! :) I was rearranging the living room and vacuuming the floor last night at 1am. Then it was like... OMG! I bet I'm waking up Pete. But that was the moment I felt like doing it and so... I just did it. He didn't mention waking up to the sound of it, so... maybe I didn't wake him up. I would get so much more accomplished if I could work during the night when I feel the most awake and clear headed, AND energized. I wonder if I moved to the totally opposite side of the Earth if I would be "normal". Probably not. I'd probably just get attuned to THAT nighttime. :)

Someone had told me I should be in Japan or Australia since I usually am awake when they are awake but yeah.. I'd figure I'd be a night owl there then they'd complain I'd have to go back to the USA LOL!
