yeah, I do feel like a kid kicking up the leaves. :)

And we DO get snow....lots and lots of it. I hate snow, but I've had my fair share of it.

Your questions are very helpful. They're keeping my mind busy. Thank you so much!

I think i love snow as i never get much of it. I guess its easy to get sick of it when you have a lot of it.

I bet your kids love it too?

I think my bedtime meds have kicked in enough for me to try to get some sleep. Thank you so much Choc and Tink!

Sleep well sweetpea.

strech out on sofa w pillow and sheet and put on head set and listen to soft music w your eyes closed. when your pm meds begin to work go get in your bed or sleep on the sofa.

Its not uncommon for us to see showdows thats slightly behind us thats some what beside us and for our minds to play tricks on us as in but not limit to hearing noise or voices and see people or out line of a person that is not real.

Are you on medication that lessons parnoid and decress seeing things that are not real and can prevent our minds from running away with us as in mind is moveing fast foward ?
Pdoc can prescribe a med that will assist you in lessoning the fear and parinoia

Clean you kitchen or clean out kitchen pantry as a way to distract your mind.
Write in jounal or do a word find or cross word puzzle. Curl your hair,polish your nails to distract - slow down your mind.
Lay on sofa w head set on. Leave tv on w volume turned down. sleep w handset of phone if it makes you feel better. the light from tv helps. Day light comes faster than we want - at least it does for me.

My children use to get up at 6am and yep I use to stumble to kitchen to have coffe and org juice. afterward I would take a shower or sponge off while they had juice while they watched a dvd cartoon show and while they watch a show I would get thier brackfast ready. Mornings were always busy time. Point of this we need to keep some what busy to distract our minds from playing tricks and staying somewhat busy we somewhat for get to be parinoid.

Monday morning call your pdoc office - schedule an appt. your pdoc can put you on med that will help you and decress your mind from playing tricks,k

My time release PM medi has taken effect so off to bed I go. I seem to get my best sleep in recliner in ft of tv w my dogs.

HH JUST UR MIND PLAYING TRICKS ON YOU..I BEEN HEARING THINGS AS WELL... JAMES..
