Just lots of stuff on my mind Lioness. Emotions, stress, all kinds of things. It throws my sleeping pattern out of wack.

Poor (((Terri)))! I have been so blessed to not have sleep problems. Just can't imagine that. I just prayed for you.

I could sleep fine right now. Now i'm fighting sleep. Last night at 2 and 3 am was a different story. I went to the woods to think... I had cheesecake for breakfast... Since I had cheesecake I must forego the cookies... I'm just ready for 5:30 so I can go home and go to sleep. Thanks for the prayers! It means a lot to me. I'm just dealing with a lot right now.

I'm so sorry to hear about how negative your mom is. There are so many blessings they just refuse to have because of that attitude...very sad. You are an incredible woman and daughter to deal with it the way you have. thank you for that. i know that a lot of the hurtful things she says to me comes out of sheer jealousy. she didn't get to do a lot of things that she had planned and dreamed to do because she got married and then had a kid. so she sees me getting to do pretty much everything i've always said i wanted to do at least once, and it hurts her. but she can't understand that she made her choices and i am making mine. she'd like to choose for me and i won't let her. she has to accept me with all my quirks and ticks, and not try to make me into something i'm not. and that is just that. and terri, have you ever tried melatonin? i use the sublingual ones from GNC. cherry flavored. i take 1/2 of one about an hour before i want to be asleep, and it usually allows me sleep all night the sublingual ones dissolve under the tongue.

Everything else has been done, so lets Pray. Father, I pray in the name of Jesus, that you would take Terri in your arms right now and give her the comfort and the peace that she needs. I pray that she would be able to rest in you, trust in you Lord and that she would have the energy she needs to finish out this day. I pray that she would walk through the rest of this day in your divine peace and when she goes to lay her head on her pillow Lord take the burden that she is carrying Lord so she can have deep renewing sleep In Jesus' name, Amen.

I had never heard of Melatonin till yesterday when my sister mentioned my nephew taking it. I try to sleep as natural as I can because I don't like being "addicted" to those types of meds. I'll take a sleeping pill every now and then if its crucial, but I hate waking up after taking them. I may have to try something though. As of right now i'm so tired I could sleep on the cold, hard floor.

Thank you for the prayers Nadine. I can say that i've prayed today. From the time I left my house till the time I got to school was a non-stop. It wasn't a full hour, but it was sweet.
