It helped tremendously!!!Pepper Pacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12393074717699447086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4973571331135049507.post-18415011548151879312011-06-30T19:10:31.974-04:002011-06-30T19:10:31.974-04:00I can send you some of my training videos.

The...No...but I just determined what my problem is. The big M. Mood swings, depression, hot flashes, barely making it to the bathroom, lack of motivation, body aches, weight gain, confusion, fatigue, wakening up early...all equals menopause. It's fairly early for me but I don't believe there is a solid age to begin and it lasts years. <br /><br />At least I know what's going on. I thought I was going nuts and dying at the same time. <br /><br />The bright side is that I now have an excuse to give in to the darkside. Muahahaha.<br /><br />Um...that was the menopause talking, not me.Pepper Pacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12393074717699447086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4973571331135049507.post-60823930398041568832011-06-30T16:39:37.693-04:002011-06-30T16:39:37.693-04:00Stress and worrying causes me to loose sleep.

Sometimes warm milk laced w/Kahlua is a huge help but here lately, I've been taking advantage of it by reading Vampiric charms which is simply AWESOME (that was sung in a high pitched voice btw ;-). Hopefully I can return the favor someday!

Which is why I have been known to watch such movies as The Frog Princess at 3 am and cracking up, laughing out loud while doing it. Not a follower of Disney or anything, but that movie is terrific. <br /><br />Maybe I should just drink some more American Honey. I just need 3 more hours...Sometimes I send people messages saying; 'Hey, are you awake?' and then at 7 I get a message back saying, 'Yeah.'Pepper Pacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12393074717699447086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4973571331135049507.post-87651840739991914642011-06-30T00:09:53.087-04:002011-06-30T00:09:53.087-04:00I know exactly how you feel... there have been ple...I know exactly how you feel... there have been plenty of nights where I can't go to sleep so I sit up and read for hours and hours or I watch old shows like Roseanne, The Nanny, Home Improvement. Sometimes even turn to the Animal Planet. Here's a trick that I use, find a movie you've been wanting to see, maybe try something from those Red Boxes. First thing's first prepare for bed/get comfy then put the movie on when you feel yourself wanting to drift off and see if you can't sleep then. Really if it doesn't work then you've gotten the chance to watch a movie and if it does work, then yayy.<br /><br />-392OhMyGoodnessAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
