Good Job. Have been worried.. I could use some of your horse pills as I can't sleep either.. Was up most of night before and been up all night tonight and this morning. I hope you feeling some better after some much needed sleep! I have a ton of printing to do for the preschool and I am tired. Tried to sleep several times no luck! so I have been printing and posting, Like counting sheep! Reading things I don't understand and witing things that only make sense to me! I have lost my mind somewhere!LOL Probably been abducted by an alien from the other thread!LOL

Oh I am so sorry again.. LIsten to me....Read this go close your eyes and go to my special place...It's all yours..

 Close your eyes.. think about a meadow soft and green, a slight breeze, beautiful Bluebells, and Trilliums growing wild around the meadow, which is nestled right in the middle of a The most beautiful redwood forest....You are here lying in this small clearing with the sun trickling down like a beam onto the lush green meadow grass..and your face. The birds singing and the sound of a small underground creek which pokes its head just above ground and tumbles lightly over a small embankment where it forms the most beautiful waterfall which flows softly down through the wooded area along side the clearing, traveling on about 500 more feet where it just vanishes into the earth again making its underground Journey onto its destination of the rushing river...

Smell the fresh air and listen to the sounds of nature around you as you here the slight rustle of leaves in the wind..feel the sunshining down upon your face with a warmth that spreads across your body filling you with a soft groggy warm glow as your eyes begin to drift oft into a restful slumber and your mind clears of its worries and finds peace and solitude there beneath the beauty that surrounds you! restful thoughts quiet moments soft trickles of water and peace.... Dreaming now in the quiet slumber of your mind.....Sleep well friend.....

Been up again all night.. am feeling pretty worn out but still can't sleep...so bored....Here it is 1;00 in the afternoon and I am still in my nightgown..I haven't even gotten dressed, but I didn't chang until 4:00 am this morning .. In hopes that sleep would come if I tried to fool it! Yeah right Instead I was rather bad and posted and emailed out of boredom! You should never email when your bored you might bore people to death and depress them!!
