The problem with Sleep apnea is that most of them are unaware of the condition. It can be only recognized by the close watch of the bed partner or the family member sleeping near you. So if you possess tired or sleepy and having snoring inform your partner or your family member to perform a close watch on your sleep and take proper treatment as prescribed by the doctor.SDavidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17687764267278733518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8672199313175868241.post-18144628527296894502009-10-05T08:07:17.115-04:002009-10-05T08:07:17.115-04:00Very nice post Lynn, your 'baby' is so cut...Very nice post Lynn, your 'baby' is so cute, even with her backwards dress. I have to admit I was happy my girls went to college close to home. I sure do miss the middle one now that she got transferred to DC for her job.<br /><br />I've had similar trouble sleeping, just can't turn off my thoughts sometimes, and night sweats sure don't help. A few things that have helped me - saying no to caffeine, even in the morning, (easier said than done when you're tired in the morning from not enough sleep!) and taking magnesium and/or melatonin about 30 minutes to an hour before going to bed. Magnesium's just a mineral, and something our bodies need anyway. Melatonin's a natural hormone, and I figure it's probably safer than some of the artificial sleep aids I could be using. Either of these two work well for me, and in combination, even better.garden girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13284047851881823280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8672199313175868241.post-71685443104071027782009-10-02T18:26:44.513-04:002009-10-02T18:26:44.513-04:00Sleeeep!

In my case, it was not so easy to get out from it. When I just couldn't sleep that night, I would be awake till dawn. Just happens sometimes. Oh as I do not really like reading books, I go find a book to read just to make myself tired/bored. This way, I would want to sleep more. In any case, I like the pictures that you have posted here.

Especially with your music playin in the background (I got michael buble - ooh blast from the past with morris day!). The one of your little dog is soooooooo cute!!! <br /><br />SPeaking of sleep, I should start winding down. I hate this work thing. I was born to be a night owl and having to get up at 5am sucks.

Insomnia is miserable. My poor daughter has had it on and off since high school. She's a jr. in college now and just started taking ambien, it's gotten so bad. I worry about her on it, but she seems to be doing much better, so hopefully she won't have any of the side effects like getting up and sleep-driving around town and having a car accident!! You have the most lovely flowers, blooms and photos--the sun setting doesn't look blurry to me...those are outstanding shots! And your little white dog is adorable. The praying mantis eating the cicada is a great shot...despite it's grizzliness! I hope you will find a way to sleep through the night.Best wishes;-)Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12844013803699228989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8672199313175868241.post-78310743707595591522009-09-29T17:50:23.682-04:002009-09-29T17:50:23.682-04:00I hope that you have backed up these photos somewh...I hope that you have backed up these photos somewhere before deleting them 'cos they are so beautiful.

And I love your arrangement - I saw those little lanterns the other day - how cute.<br />Welcome to my world. I haven't been able to sleep in a few years now. I'm sure I'm either a walking zombie or I've learned to fake it. Now I have started sleeping in the early evening - like when 1 of my 3 TV shows I like is on. I hate that. Then through the night I am up every hour and I can tell ya the time by it. I wish I could help but haven't figured out how to take care of my own insomnia. I do know lots of women go through this though. I know that doesn't help make us feel better but at least we know we aren't alone! I hope yours gets better.RainGardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14071017261791897927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8672199313175868241.post-9493285430915995822009-09-29T09:41:05.855-04:002009-09-29T09:41:05.855-04:00well I say we sure benefited from your sleeplessne...well I say we sure benefited from your sleeplessness beautiful pictures. My computer has been giving me the same message I had a tech here last week he told me about a free download at www.ccleaner.com just bypass all the paypal stuff it cleaned stuff that I didn't even know about. The only thing is make sure you know all your sign in and pass words because it will wipe out those also. I also went into ~ Set up ~ add and delete section on my computer and went through every program if I had not used it in the last 2 years I deleted it. Things seem to be working great now it even made the picture on my screen clearer. hope this helps hugs, Cherrycherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08675584278974972011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8672199313175868241.post-39417824335392404192009-09-29T09:19:20.976-04:002009-09-29T09:19:20.976-04:00Sweetie, I hope the sandman finds you tonight!
