I got almost 7 hours of sleep. I am so shocked... and I kinda want to go back to bed and see if I can get more... maybe catch up on some of what I have lost these past 8 months. but instead, I will get in the shower and try to run some errands and maybe do some work in the yard. I plan to do some work at my son's this weekend...

So glad you got some rest! Was there anything in particular that helped you? Just wondering if you had something to pass along for anyone else with the same problems.

Love and Hugs,
Martha

I am so very happy for you! Reading about your difficulties sleeping concerned me for you. I now find my own sleep patterns being turned upside down. Lately, I've found when I can't fall asleep (usually because I'm spinning in my head), thinking about this list of good things calms me down: love, joy, peace, patience,gentleness, goodness, kindness,faithfulness and self-control. So I just think on each of these, move onto the next, and next thing I know, I'm off in lala land. Congrats! ~ Scott

I can't really describe in words what finally helped, It was just a break in all the stress and anxiety I think... I comforting feeling/event that took some of it away for one night. I am thankful for that one night of good sleep... hopefully it will happen more often now.
