I hang curtains!! I woke up a full 2 hours before I needed to! So now my honey-do list is one item shorter. Curtains hung - check! And an added bonus is I learned how to use drywall screws!!
I have become a very bad sleeper these last few years. I watch some of the most boring tv shows at 2 am and 3 am. That puts me back asleep in the recliner very quickly. I do this so the hubby doesn't get woke up with my tossing and turning.
Good job Ronni, those look very pretty. I am not that ambitious, I usually just toss and turn or get up and get on the computer.
I sing to myself--in my head since my singing out loud terrifies the cat and sets the coyotes to howling. I've found that Yellow Bird, Angelina, and Amazing Grace will eventually put me back to sleep. It isn't that these songs are boring, but they are simple and I can remember the lyrics. If I tried a complicated song I'd be up all night trying to remember the words.
I cook, clean, do laundry, read. My favorite thing to do is set on my deck and listen to the night, if it's warm enough. At least once a week I do the shopping as walmart is open 24 hours and my local grocery store opens at 6 am.
I usually toss and turn for a while until I am SURE I won't sleep. Then I watch TV or fiddle with my tablet or phone. My sleep patterns are all messed up lately because it gets dark so early.
I make up word games for myself until I fall asleep. Not the usual thing that most folks do but it works just fine for me.
Depends on what time of the morning it is. If it is still early I lay there and plan new flowerbeds or rearrange the ones I already have. Kind of make a mental note of seeds to buy or pots to plant If it is on the later side I get on the computer and Stew :-D
I don't do much of anything in the morning until I've had 2 or 3 cups of coffee. Then I'm ready to go.
I have always had trouble sleeping but it seems to be getting better with age. I am able to sleep up to about 6 hours a night but I am never able to sleep straight through more than an hour or so at a time, when I wake up I just get up for a few minutes and get a drink or eat a little bit or look at the stars outside then go back to bed and sleep for another hour or so. When I was young I had constant insomnia so I eventually just got to where I slept every third day for about 10 to 12 hours. Very handy when it comes to getting a lot done... not so good on the heart though apparently....
Well, It's 3:11 AM. I have been up for almost 3 hours now. Hopefully I can snooze for a few hours till hubby gets up. :-?
If I'm having trouble then I'll usually get up and make a cup of chamomile tea and do a few word puzzles until I feel drowsy again. When we were away on holiday a few years ago we used a packet of instant cheese sauce in our dinner-which we never do at home- and we were both up,aide awake and doing the washing up at 3 in the morning Given a few more hours I could probably have sorted out world peace...we have never bought an instant sauce mix since... I like your curtains Ronni-good job!
