I set my phone alarm every night for 9:30 to remind me to get ready to go to bed. It is 2:47 am as I’m writing this. It doesn’t work for me, but it does let me know how late it is getting…

as usual… love your stuff

Sweet Dreams when you get there!

HAIR. hubby calls it televangelist hair.
SLEEP. good sex, it guarantees a good nites sleep every time, again, hubbys idea, but, what the heck, it is fun & it works!!

If that fails a big ole slice of pound cake with a glass of warm milk should bee enough carbs to put you to sleep!

I second the Melatonin. Wonderful stuff. I also like Advil PM. However, if your child happens to wake you up in the night and need something, be prepared to be banging into the walls as you stagger down the hall. Melatonin is very natural, and causes no mid-night staggering nor morning sluggishness.

Hey. Long time reader, firt time “commenter.”

Just wanted to share with you that I have long enjoyed your blog. Our lives are very different, I think, however I have discovered that you write how I think. I just made this realization. Yay for me! and you!
I agree with you and others that anything P-Dub is sinfully delicious…

Keep doing what you’re doing, insomniac. But, I hope you get some sleep soon.

Geez. I don’t have any friends who write books. Got one who writes a blog though. And for the record- anything you make out of the pioneer woman cookbook is guiness book good.

I’m sure someone already mentioned it…but Tylenol PM helps me a lot. I only need to take one. It’s just enough to help get me to sleep and to stay there (which is really my sleep issue.)

Melanie, I have never commented before, but I LOVE your blog. You are stinkin’ hilarious, Woman!

I am a nurse and worked night shift for 5 years. I had A LOT of trouble sleeping and switching back and forth between sleeping during the day and sleeping during the night. I tried tons of sleep aids (Tylenol PM, Simply Sleep, etc.), but they all contained Diphenhydramine (Benadryl). They all made me groggy the next day.

Then I discovered Melatonin. It is wonderful! I buy mine at GNC, and I sleep like a baby. Hope that helps!
