Wow, 3rd or 4th pot :P<br />That's alot of coffee my friend, do you think the coffee is keeping you wired? I know you're having to deal with alot right now and stress has away of keeping the mind working when you really want/need sleep. What if you cut back the amount of coffee and maybe consider slowing down on some of your projects. I'm not sure what your weather is like right now, have you maybe considered walking on the beach or swimming? Sometimes the fresh air and water will help a person relax/sleep in the evening. Lack of sleep makes noises sound more predominant and irritating. When we have a soar throat, a natural remedy is warm salt water gargled 2 - 3 times daily. It tastes terrible but it really does help. I would rather have a nice hot rum toddy with honey but the alcohol would react to my medication. Sorry about babbling, I hope you get some sleep soon, if not take the advice of Rev Paul or Matt and see a doctor. Try to have a good day and give Sweet Wife and hug!Sandy Livesayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06183449816586125720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7507051756134115711.post-68349864998377903982012-08-22T11:18:10.682-04:002012-08-22T11:18:10.682-04:00Get some rest.
