All day I am so tired then it gets to be this time of night and I am wide awake. Tomorrow is a class trip that I am going on with my son at school so I want to be well rested. I am very excited to go on this class trip. I need to go do the dishes now so that way my coffee pot and travel mug will be all ready to go. I have to be at the school by 8:30 am. My children leave for school about 8 am so that gives me about 30 minutes to get ready after they leave and go. I don't need to do much in the morning but the more I get done tonight the less I have to do tomorrow. I am going to shut my computer down and go shower and do the dishes. Then I will lay down and read a new book called "The Memory Keeper's Daughter".

Have a great time on the field trip tomorrow. I find reading at bedtime is very relaxing. I can't make it through more than a few pages.

By the time I got done with the dishes and showered and got ready for bed it was already 11 pm. By then it was to late to read. Even when I try to get to bed early I am never able to.

@shaggin I just stop whatever I am doing and get to bed no later than 10:30.

Best to get prepared tonight, so that you can sleep soundly, and wake up fresh. It is very annoying to go to bed, and then when you are about to fall asleep, you suddenly realize that you need to do this or that. You cannot even rest in peace!

I have to make a list of what needs to be done the next day when that happens or I cannot sleep. I will just lay there all night thinking about it. Sometimes I have to just get up and get done with whatever it is that needs to get done.

Sometimes we are over tired and when we go to bed we can't fall asleep but with me I usually either fall asleep watching TV in my bedroom or I start to read a book and then boom I am asleep. Have fun with your son on that trip.

I have had that happen a few times where I am so tired that I can't sleep. It is such a weird thing. Usually the more tired I am the easier it is for me to fall asleep. I like to read when I can before bed it helps me fall asleep easier too. The trip was fun thank you!

I have not read that one yet but I see the book all the time at used book stores. Think it was a New York Times BestSeller. Let us know how it is!!

This was the first time I have heard of it. I hope that it is good. I am not very far into it yet. I think I am going to go shower and lay down and read it. I am really in a sad mood tonight so I don't feel like being online.

I never got to relax and go to bed early. I always intend to but it never happens haha. Just like its 11:15 pm and I wanted to get to bed earlier. At least I don't have any major plans tomorrow so my day should be fairly calm. Today was beautiful out. My daughter went to bed with thick fleece pajama bottoms on. I am laying here very warm in just a tanktop and shorts.
