If my muse has gone on vacation without me, I'll cop out and just start random surfing on the 'net.<br /><br />It's amazing where following related links on web sites will take a person. I've found sites which deal with astronomy, conspiracy theories (some pretty far-out, and some pretty credible), space weather (fascinating!), and herbal medicine...it's never really wasted time.<br /><br />Oh, I probably should mention, at this moment, I should be fast asleep, but, well, you know how that goes...<br /><br />So here I am, a new visitor to a friendly place! <br /><br />I'm happy to have found your additional blog; will be back again soon, hopefully more awake and rested.<br /><br />Your essay was a fine read, and you're not alone in your wakefulness; I suppose that sometimes the only thing one may do is to just roll with it--fighting it only makes it worse. Some of us are fortunate to be able to sleep in if we need to; not everyone is that lucky.<br /><br />I hope the next time you're awake when you'd really rather be fast asleep, I hope you'll remember you have lots of friends who think about you, and even though they may live on the far side of the world, they care about you just as much as if they were neighbors across the street.<br /><br />Later, my new friend.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6678033041062524907.post-89013714800408163282011-04-18T15:32:53.138+01:002011-04-18T15:32:53.138+01:00There is nothing worse than when you can't sle...There is nothing worse than when you can't sleep or wake so early in the morning<br />My husband say's when he or I wake that early it is before Sparrows fart...which I think is lovley cos they must fart the same as all of us, in fact I am going off now to write on my blog <br />xxxxxxxLohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17680505313863755359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6678033041062524907.post-82693210028183530872011-04-18T11:06:31.540+01:002011-04-18T11:06:31.540+01:00Hi Arlene I do hope you managed to get a decent ni...Hi Arlene I do hope you managed to get a decent night's sleep last night. Your mind was sure working overtime. Maybe it's because you had such a busy day and all those thoughts swishing around your head.

Here's a hug for you and Tango and Ruby and hope you get a good sleep :0 you take care.Catches the Eyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09514696230926602723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6678033041062524907.post-42106038499260778652011-04-18T02:31:16.378+01:002011-04-18T02:31:16.378+01:00Hey Arlene, I have many a night like the one you a...Hey Arlene, I have many a night like the one you are having, My best remedy is to watch tv while laying down on the soffa, the sound really low, and low and behold I fall asleep. It may not work for you, but you never know. Take care and get some sleep tonight. You need it. ;-)Horst in Edmontonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14523290699599403329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6678033041062524907.post-62157404503688615862011-04-17T21:02:59.578+01:002011-04-17T21:02:59.578+01:00I think it's more common than I first thought,...I think it's more common than I first thought, but it's a real nuisance.Thanks for visit ladiesArlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06493608700532494612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6678033041062524907.post-53517723046150913622011-04-17T17:10:01.235+01:002011-04-17T17:10:01.235+01:00Last night was a night like that for me.
