The cloudy skies in the northeast do not help. We don't even get the sunshine for 2 hours a day to make up for the late rising & quickly setting sun. Solstice is less than 2 weeks away and I will be sharing in your joy as the sunlight starts to return! Hang in there girl :)CSD Faux Finishinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05947691876538206892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2753984409686528954.post-20502939435998760312008-12-12T06:12:00.000-08:002008-12-12T06:12:00.000-08:00OOOOOOOOh no! insomnia bad!Sounds like a good idea...OOOOOOOOh no! insomnia bad!<BR/>Sounds like a good idea - it may need to be in the afternoon. Chef just changed the kitchen workweek to Monday-Friday, but it's December, and we're slammed, so I will probably end up working at least part of tomorrow.<BR/>You should see the store - we got fabulous new cases for the pastry and chocolates - it looks so pretty, like an Old World chocolate shop :)pastrywitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09143587662242345203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2753984409686528954.post-22758772005593826012008-12-12T02:34:00.000-08:002008-12-12T02:34:00.000-08:00go to the cottage and get some nature's way 5htp.....go to the cottage and get some nature's way 5htp...helps your brain create more seratonin...or serotonin. it's 3:33 am and i refuse to look it up. <BR/><BR/>i need some too since i have insomnia this week. shall we go together on saturday?disabled accounthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13540062415882767130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2753984409686528954.post-33926705279150173472008-12-10T15:20:00.000-08:002008-12-10T15:20:00.000-08:00I also hear having a light in your house that simu...I also hear having a light in your house that simulates sunlight helps.

Then I got it 1L year when it would get dark here at 3:30 and the sun wouldn't come out until 8 or 9 in the morning. It was hell. I know this sounds counterintuitive, but tanning helps. Not enough to look like you've been to Mexico recently, but a good quick blast once every two weeks gives me enough vitamin D to get through. Hang in there! <BR/><BR/>Word Verification: iMall. When apple takes over the mall and you buy everything through their online store, which only allows you to wear each item 7 times. ;)Breehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14290256480395879700noreply@blogger.com
