Where is that darn switch?!?

I really don't have anything important to say....but I feel like I should blog anyway. I seem to have gotten away from my old blog habits, reading and writing often. Part of that is because my life is busier now. I'm not sure if you are anything like me but when I have a lot going on in my life, I get very ADD-ish (no offense to ADD patients). I often feel like I can't concentrate, or focus on one topic. The thoughts and ideas I have are all floating around and banging into each other in my brain....all trying to be the first in line. That is exactly how I have been lately. There are only two things that calm my brain down enough to allow me to fall asleep at night. Xanax and reading. Not that all these thoughts are bad thoughts, or that I am upset...sometimes the info is useless shopping lists and goofy stuff.

Is anyone else like this? Anyone else need to read at night or do something else to get their brains to "shut off"??

I listen to music to help me fall asleep.

My brain never shuts off, thus the problems. Only ambien makes me sleep otherwise I think I could stay up non-stop doing something OCD-ish.

I have to specifically take meds to shut my brain off to sleep. It's a sad sad thing

yes. i am like this. but nothing works for me except for xanax. ambien knocks me out, but then i am awake cold 3 hours later... so only xanax (well - that and hot sex -- but I am not married right now, ergo i am a "practicing born-again virgin" - hahahahaha)

About Me

Im a Christian Stay at home mom...that means I am a professional multi-tasker and I give all the credit to Jesus. I am married to my best friend and have 3 wonderful sons. God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, nor sun without rain, But he did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears and light for the way.
