Only one awake
Do you ever feel like this? At this moment in time I feel I am the only one awake in the whole world and beyond. Just been looking at main section and answered a few threads. Then look and find my 6 replies are there all below each other and no one else. Must stop doing this.

After only 4 hrs. sleep the night before, I fell asleep on the couch tonight around 7. Took a 4.5 hr. "nap" and have been up ever since. Had a snack, watched recorded TV, read blogs, folded laundry and now making myself go to bed for a few hours. You are not alone.

From 03:00am this morning 'till 05:00am, I worked a word puzzle. Then I slept for two hours. An average night. I am retired and do not have to be anywhere on time, so I don't mind.
Actually I am now 73 and glad to be alive.

I used to love that feeling! I loved the quiet and totally "me" time. I have always been a night owl and when I had my babies, it was so wonderful being up for that middle of the night feeding, just the 2 of us. When I was younger I would get a lot done in those wee hours of the morning. There was nothing on TV at that time, so I would read, sew or crochet, even straighten up the house if it was needed. Since I have retired I don't seem to do it anymore. Maybe my brain isn't needing the solitude anymore.

Ahhh...sleeping problems. I've had them for many years. It's better now that I'm retired and don't have to function at a job with only 3 hours of sleep. There would be times I'd just go into work even if it was 4AM (I had flex hours). Last night I slept from about 12:00 to 3:45 even though I thought I was pretty tired. Luckily the short nights don't happen more than maybe once a week. I do enjoy the feeling of peace and quiet in the wee hours!

I am with all of you with the sleeping (not) issue. It would not be too much of a problem except I NEED to get up at 4am for work, but it is hard when I go to bed at 8 and then am wide awake at 2 or 2:30.....Weekends are not much of an issue as I can get up and do some quilting, or watch a movie. Maybe we should start an AM virtual quilting club!
