It happens to me all the time. Before we moved to an apt., I would get up by 6:30-7AM, make my tea and bagel, then I would either read or work on a project in my sewing room. I would be asleep by 10 PM. I complained that my husband stayed in bed until 10-11 AM. Guess what, now I stay up until after 11 PM, wake up at 2 hour intervals all through the night, not really getting into a sound sleep until 3:30 AM. Then I would wake up at 7:30 when my friend called on her way to work (only time we can talk), feed TJ the cat and go back to bed and not get up until sometime between 9-10:30 AM. But guess what? Now my husband wakes up when I do - no quiet time to pretend I'm all alone. There must be some kind of tremor in the force that has us all messed up with our sleep. I know exactly how you feel.

See if your doc will check you for sleep apnea and/or low oxygenation at night.
I was waking up at all hours, moving from bed to chair to couch to bed, staying awake, then sleeping inappropriately during the day. Waiting for sleep test, expect to have CPAP machine soon.
Also, starting dialysis helped me sleep through the night - probably not your answer, though.

My Dr. said to use 1 benedryl -- and it works well, even when I get up to go to the bathroom I am able to go back to sleep easily. He said that is better as we get older since we don't wake up in a fog. Take it and am ready to sleep about half an hour later.
