Can't sleep

It's 6:20 here and I have been awake since 4:00.  I can't sleep!  And I had only managed about 3-3.5 hours of sleep before I woke up at 4:00.  I'm exhausted but my brain just won't shut off and let me sleep.  I have to work from 9:30-7:00 and I'm supposed to be a bunch of physical work today.  I have no idea how I'm going to do it and really wish I could call in sick.

Re: Can't sleep

  • I'm sorry you couldnt sleep. Hopefully the work day will go by fast and then you can go home and rest.
  • oh no :(  i'm so sorry, i hope you can make it through the day
  • That sucks!!!  I haven't been sleeping well either.  I fell asleep on the couch at like 8:30 last night after drinking three beers (man, I must be getting old).  Woke up at like 9:30, went to bed, fell back asleep like an hour later and then woke up periodically throughout the night.  Woke up at 3 and was up for 2 hours before finally falling back asleep and then my alarm went off at 5:50.  It sucks.

    Plus, I had a crazy dream that Jamaica was suing Adam for $536,000 for random weird stuff (like pulling a flower petal off of a flower and having a drink before we got on the resort property).  So then Adam told me to grab my purse and then we went to the airport and flew to Jamaica and went back to the resort that we went to on our HM with no reservations, no luggage, nothing.  So we kinda walked around the resort for a while.  It was definitely strange.

  • Not sleeping sucks! My dad said he had an awful nights sleep in the hospital.. the pain medication was not working and they kept trying different stuff but it didn't seem that anything was working.

    I'm glad I'm not the only weirdo that hasn't been sleeping well.  I had one of those dreams where I was at work.  I think my brain got mad at itself for that one and decided to wake me up.

    When my papaw was in the hospital over the weekend he said he couldn't sleep because the nurses kept checking on him and waking him up.

    That does suck! I hope work goes well for you, despite your lack of sleep. Coffee!!

    I didn't sleep so well, either. I was out like a light until 2:00, when I was woken up by explosive sounds from the hallway. Poor kitty seemed to be trying to hack up a hairball. I can't believe that his little ribcage is still intact after having to withstand that much force! We sat with him for ten minutes or so, when his issue seemed to settle down.

    Our neighbors in the next townhouse were still yelling, which made it hard to fall back to sleep. The girl had been screaming at somebody named "Jerry" around 9:00, which turned into the guy-- who is not named Jerry, btw-- screaming about "your boyfriend" by 11:00, and by 2:00, it sounded like two guys BSing reallllly loudly. I kind of hate them and hope they do cheat on each other and break up. I know this makes me a bad person.

    Anyway, I lost a few hours of sleep last night, too. :(

  • yuck! Who ended up calling out today? I stayed up late watching Private Practice and HH didn't bring home coffee this morning so I'm kind of miserable 
  • I had the opposite problem today. I have the day off, and I slept in waaaay too long (sorry, not rubbing it in). I was also having crazy dreams.

    For those of you who have a hard time falling asleep melatonin seems to work pretty well for DH and for myself the few times I've used it.
