Yep, Almost every night since I’ve been caring for my terminally ill Mother, Got the doctor to put me on some generic for Ambien (Zolpidem Tartrate) , I take 2 of those (Doctor sells me a bottle a month of 30 out of his office and I get the other 30 through prescription from the Pharmacy), 2 - 50mg HCI Diphenhydramine, 2 - 10mg Melatonin, & 2 - 10 mg generic for Valium (Diazepam) and still sometimes I’m wide awake; It all depends on if my Mother will go to sleep or stay up all night, Insomnia sucks.

However I did find that article on how our fighter pilots get to sleep and it does help but only if I know Mom’s ok for the night.

I LOATH taking sleep aids. But sometimes we have to. I took care of my dad in his final stages, and raised to teenage boys by myself.

I understand.

Have you tried trazadone? It’s a non sedating pill. The right dosage it simply stops the wheels from turning, which is what I need, and allowing you to fall asleep naturally. You can get up if you need to , and actually go back to sleep.

Yep my doctor tried me on Trazodone and other antidepressants and even a sleep clinic but nothing works; I mean heck look at me now, I took that concoction that I posted about 10 PM EST and here I am again wide awake but I did read a story on how Fighter Pilots Fall Asleep and it works for situations like this when I wake up, I will post the link below and at least be able to sleep a few more hours.
Anyone else that has a problem similar to mine I highly suggest it, No drugs needed, Just follow the instructions and you will fall asleep maybe not for a long period but hey if it works for our fighter pilots then it should for many others.

Well night again everyone, I hope I get at least 6 more hours sleep but if not I know that it will catch up to me and I will end up sleeping for almost a whole day but what worries me is that one day I may not wake up. (At least not in this world/Realm/Dimension)

So, funny you should ask. Except I know why I could not sleep. Adrenaline. Let me explain.

So there i am, nice and cozy. Out cold. But my back hurts. Need to roll over. Execute the roll flawlessly, wife does not move. Perfect.

What do my half asleep ears here? There is a tornado on the ground there is a tornado on the ground. She didn’t move cuz she was awake, and news was on. Glance at my phone. It is 1240 in the morning.

She nudges me into a little form of consciousness to let me know if she says something run to our middle bathroom. She told me to try to go back to sleep just be aware.

YEAH RIGHT.

So I lay there, eyes closed, trying to follow the track in my mind. It came within 2 to 3 miles of our house, but once I heard it crossed a certain street and direction I stopped listening.

But that didn’t help me get back to sleep before 2. Alarm went off hour and a half later. I am absolutely exhausted and about to go to work. Incidentally I will be driving through part of the path and hoping it didn’t go by my work before I mentally placed the trajectory in my mind. Cuz it was in the area

That really sucks Mast, I always had this same effect when Hurricanes would hit us late at night, No way could I sleep until it was over, One advantage with a Hurricane is A: You know how strong it is when it hits and B: You know there will be tornadoes spawning but just not where.

With a system like yours coming through the weather says there’s a potential for
tornados, hail, etc, but no telling where or how strong; A roll of the dice as to where a tornado will hit with your type of system which in my opinion is worse then a Hurricane because we have been told the direction it is headed, wind speed etc. and tornados spawn anywhere in it’s path so we know but with your type of system you never know much until it’s on top of you.

Hope that ya’ll get through ok.

Going to try to sleep some more; Catch ya’ll later.

Drive to work roads were clear. About 3 miles from my house and power is out as far as I could see. Didn’t look far though it is where I get in the freeway.

Freeways clear. Fully expected that. All lights in etc. In my direction that is. Other direction nk lights.

Getting off freeway and not even flashing red at the light. Pitch black. About half a mile uo and power kicks back in.

Interesting to see news coverage today of it.

And it’s raining again. Not even 70. It’s just chilly and humid. Looks like my bbq will be a washout again today. I feel sorry for the people out picnicking at parks today. Miserable weather. Thank God we don’t have the weather Mastadon is going thru. I would be a nervous wreck.:grimacing:

According to my phone it is 82 outside with 64% humidity.

However I side my kitchen, under my vent hood that sucks air from the outside down over the stove and cycles the air from the stove back out… I heat vortex, it is considerably hotter.

Cooked lunch on the flat top and with the steamer, and dinner required all 6 industrial burners.

Add in the fact that one of my ovens has had the Maki g of a pot roast I. It since 1130 at 325 degrees and it is a recipe for blah.

It is a particularly exhausting strain of blah to boot.

Time to put my chair in the fridge and take my break. I wish I was kidding. I am not.

Hope that the crazy weather and the heat from cooking gets better for you soon. Enjoy your break in the cooler.

Our humidity is still lower than normal (currently 22%), but even that isn’t helping give us a break in the temps. It is currently 100°F with a heat index of 106°F and it is almost 5:30 pm here. Not looking forward to our next electricity bill. =(
