Surf myself to sleep

I've recently found myself in a rut of surfing myself to sleep. There are loads of competition sites that I browse through and I find entering competitions very soothing. I've got to say, though, Lucky Hammer is by far my favourite. I don't know whether it's the colour scheme or what but I've found no problem sleeping. Maybe it's the dolcite writing style of their copywriter but I find that after a couple of bids I'm fast asleep (like an old bid!).

As a tribute to the site and as thanks for them helping my recent insomnia I've added links to the site and their blog (they have a blog too!!) to my own blog.

Still 'camping'

2 more nights of camping in someone else's house to go!

It's tiring not having your own space to live in so I'm really looking forward to getting into my own bed again.

I series of late nights and early mornings made it particularly difficult to get out of bed this morning.

Although I don't feel particularly tired, I am beginning to feel a little run down. Some early nights are in order I think!

New Year Sleeping

It's been a while since I last posted. Let's just call Christmas one big long sleep!

Been back in the "hot radiator room" for a couple of nights now. The radiator is as bad as ever. Yesterday it woke me up by burning my forehead and this morning it woke me up by giving me an awful headache!

Still, feeling pretty good nonetheless!

Excellent Night's Sleep

Last night was the last night I stayed at my old place.

I went to bed at 9:40pm and had no trouble going to sleep. I got up at 5:20am without too much difficulty and don't feel at all tired at the moment (it's now gone 4pm).

Heating off

Fantastic! I worked out how to turn the heating off! Went sleep around 11:30pm last night and got up this morning at 7:04am.

Felt a little tired this morning but I think that was largely down to not having any breakfast.

That radiator is a problem

I went to bed last night at 11:25 and went to sleep around midnight. At the moment I'm staying at a friend's house while he is away and I'm finding it rather unsettling.

The worst part by far is that I can't work out how to alter his central heating settings and at 6am every day the heating comes on.

I wake up every morning with a splitting headache, feeling lethargic. I got out of bed this morning at 8am. I feel fine now.

Nothing Weekend

This weekend I managed to be busy all weekend but really have nothing to show for it. Currently moving house which takes a lot longer than you expect (even though this is the 4th time I have moved this year).

Friday night I got home from work at 7pm. I was still suffering from a cold so sat in all night. Consequently, I wasn't tired enough to go to sleep straight away and ended up watching TV til nearly 12:30am. Fell to sleep shortly afterwards and woke up around 9.

I went out on Saturday and went to bed around 1:30am. I woke up at around 10am.

Last night I really struggled to go to sleep. I went to bed at 9:30pm and lay there until around 11pm before eventually dropping off. I woke up this morning at 5:08am and got up at 6:15am. I don't feel tired today but am looking forward to a bit of routine this week!
