* My therapist, Jan, said part of my problem getting to sleep at night was my computer use until all hours of the morning...with the computer being pure stimulation I was not getting any down-time before going to bed, so I agreed to be off the computer by 10:30pm and take about 1-1/2 hours relax-time before going to bed and have something w/ calcium after that time because though it's an old-wives-tale, it really has been proven to help with sleep, and I've been doing that...well, what do think the rule is about computer use after sleeping for 3-1/2 hrs??
* Smoking cessation - to ween or go cold turkey?? Weening drags it out, cold turkey scares me. I looked up cessation to be sure I spelled it right and found this definition under Merriam Webster: a temporary or final ceasing...temporary, hmmm, that's probably an "out" that I didn't need to think about!! (she says as she lights up another cigarette)
* Getting this donation-afghan done and in the mail to PA today (?) so the woman will have it in time for the sale on Saturday (pics will be posted)...and fighting my guilty conscience that it still haven't mom her package with washcloths I made for her (plus other stuff) months ago. She is much more important to me than some stranger, sick or not!!
* I'm probably not sleeping because of all the clutter in my room that's growing almost on a daily basis!! I actually started to attempt to clean it yesterday but got overwhelmed just looking at it and not knowing where to start, so didn't. I know, I know...little bits at a time until done...plug in a movie or book-on-tape as a distraction while I'm cleaning and before I know it I'll be done :p
* I'm really getting worried about Debra!! She's wasting away to nothing...she can't/won't eat because she has no appetite and when she does eat it either causes her paid or even more diarrhea than she already deals with, or both. The medicine and dr appts, though she has insurance, cost more time and money than she has to work with, let alone the emotional strain.
* And finally....I MISS THE KOZHUHAROV'S!!!! I've send cards and emails with no word back. I know they are all fine and having a great time, and I'm glad his family is getting so much time with them, but I WANT THEM BACK!!!!
...I think I've rambled enough now...I'm going to get a snack for my grumbling belly and go thru my email....thanks for listening xoxoxo

got another 2 hrs sleep...feel pretty good so far...
well...glad you got another 2 hours of sleep... but you need to declutter your mind & room and you might be able to sleep better... If I was there I would help you declutter the room. Maybe when Mina gets back you can pay her to help you pick up. Tell her you'll pay her 5 cents fro everything she helps you pick up. At least she can sort the clothes for you. =) and she'll get "over that real quick" so it might not cost you much at all!! LOL
I wish you luck!!
