Maybe ask to get your thyroid levels tested next time you're at the <BR/>doctor's office.alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16483907412532940799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102491209284064200.post-58834888232695720072009-03-13T07:52:00.000-07:002009-03-13T07:52:00.000-07:00No ideas here either.

It seems like I never get caught up on my housework/laundry/reading/phoning friends because I'm so tired in the evenings that I often go to bed right after tucking the girls in around 8:00-8:30, because I can't keep my eyes open.alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16483907412532940799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102491209284064200.post-16068321903545208862009-03-12T15:52:00.000-07:002009-03-12T15:52:00.000-07:00I could comment heaps on this subject right now. I...I could comment heaps on this subject right now. I've never had this problem until recently (last year or so). I WAS one of those people who dozed off in the chair at 10 (if I was lucky) every night and then zombie my way up the stairs at midnight when Dana would give me the boot. Now however, I am not running around like an impulsive hyperactive lunatic all day and so I appear to not be burning out so quickly. Reading seemed to work for a while but then as my reading skills have re-emerged I am actually engaged in the books and I cannot stop reading. Leaving me awake. Thinking. At 2 am. By 3 am I'm in a puddle of tears on the living room sofa. Exhausted by 4. Then I found a book that I like BUT the writing is somehow very challenging to me. I read a few pages, my mind starts getting tired and I'm out. Now I'm getting frustrated that I'm never going to finish this book. I can't win. Don't get me started on the seasonal/time change stuff. Anyway I'd suggest some deep poetry, something rhythmic maybe? Do you think there are actually any books left out there that might challenge you? :) Try "Love in the time of Cholera" I swear, I'm going to have to just watch the movie.Rosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04961167953334977586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102491209284064200.post-59365178786463565552009-03-11T20:01:00.000-07:002009-03-11T20:01:00.000-07:00I wish I had a good suggestion for you.

I hope that you find some resolution for yourself soon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
