I have had issues with insomnia since my teen years (probably hormomone related - why is it SO complicated being a woman?) and have finally gotten myself into a decent sleep routine. I know I need 9 hours of sleep to function properly at work. So during the school year, I am in bed with a book at 8:00; lights Niki Hudsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02785654984360443694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1090180461581546413.post-23936420137424988672011-07-13T18:37:08.910-07:002011-07-13T18:37:08.910-07:00oops- w/o grogginess. seriously. not that you shou...oops- w/o grogginess. seriously. not that you should take it.Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16787827077778614821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1090180461581546413.post-24587379692879910422011-07-13T18:33:03.009-07:002011-07-13T18:33:03.009-07:00@Rhythm- meditation is a great thing and I used to...@Rhythm- meditation is a great thing and I used to do it. I need to get back to it.<br /><br />Oh, Abby, you too? I am so careful w/ what we call vitamin K in our house but it does provide the loveliest sleep w/ grogginess in the morning.
