Thank you again for this upbeat message. We all need to be reminded how important sleep is. Just wanted to add that I have dry eyes. I purchased on Amazon an eyemask you place in the micro for less than 2 minutes, leave the warm mask on your eyes the warmth stays 15 min and your eyes feel relaxed. no more sand in the eyes and the body accepts this is sleep time. The mask is less than $20 and saves me buying eyedrops all the time. Just something I wanted to share.

When ever I have the energy to pick up the pen, I do the nighttime list. It does help let me fall asleep without the additional burden of worrying about ‘what I might be missing’ about tomorrow.
