Chamomile tea (natural sleep aid 101)? None, not even an empty box.
Rescue Remedy Sleep Spray (a natural sleep aid)? Can’t find it and it had maybe one spray left.
Fatigue to Fantastic (same as above)? Been out for months.
Itty Bitty Booklight? Plugged in on the right side of the bed, where I asked Paul to sleep last night because I can’t take it over there anymore. Falling asleep (happily) on the left side of the bed, it did occur to me I should rewire everything, but that is complicated as the only outlets in the room are on the North and East Walls, necessitating a complex wiring with extension cords under the bed to take care of anything on the left.
Ambien? Oh, I’ve got one, but since I need to take Eden to school at 8:30 and babysit Willa starting at 11:00, that wouldn’t be prudent.
I am holed up in the kitchen waiting for a cup of peppermint tea to brew.
Situation dire.
Insomnia sucks.

And what is with the stupid names of things? Fatigue to Fantastic? It might help me sleep but come on!
And Itty Bitty booklight? I know that “Quite Small and Foldable booklight” doesn’t really flow, but there’s some dignity there. We’re not getting our rest, don’t take our dignity too!
I think my tea’s done. Time to close the computer, drink something warm and do a little electrical work.

Aw, I’m sorry. I used to wish for a good bout of insomnia so I could get some stuff done, then I got one and promptly wished for sleep. Insomnia is such bitterness.
Hope the tea worked.
