Sugar Overload / myLot

South Africa

April 5, 2016 5:34pm CST

Its well past midnight, the dogs are silent, the cats are sleeping, the night is pitch dark and here I am "WIDE AWAKE" . . . sleepless! It will teach me to have a Fondant Horse Biscuit before going to bed . . . Sugar Overload has my head spinning upwards, backwards, sideways absolutely bouncing my cerebral matter everywhere! Resorting to some natural aid, I have poured myself a cuppa warm milk, and shall read a little and hope it works. I need my beauty rest if I want to be marvelous in the rehearsals of our Melodrama tomorrow evening!!! Does a certain kind of snack give you sugar overload and high energy brain frequencies as well?

I hope that you are sleeping well. On my way to bed too.

its good morning from me and good night to you - I had a very restless night - too much sugar and of course the rain that keeps me awake as well - sleep well

I don't know what makes me so sleepless sometimes. I rarely eat or drink after dinner but sometimes I toss and turn for hours.

If I were a farmer, I could have ploughed a whole field last night!!

I love sweets and there is no knowing how much I consume. But that does not affect my sleep. Probably I am not eating enough

No, but sometimes I wish it would so I can get more done on my novels.

Sleep generally comes as soon as my head hits the pillow. It's if I wake up around 3 AM that my brain goes into overdrive.

If I have coffee late in the day, I find it hard to fall asleep.

Well I hope you have a pleasant rest. We certainly need our rest. Have a great rehearsal.

I've never thought about it, but I eat a lot more chocolate than is good for me. Maybe that's why I always struggle to sleep if I try to have an 'early' night.
