swestrupWell, I slept like a log last night and woke naturally at 7:59 am this morning, one minute before my alarm was set for, so that worked about as well as I could have liked. I had my first coffee sitting outside in the 'sun' although the weather wasn't really conducive to it. It wasn't actually raining, but it was cold and damp and the sun only occasionally peeked out from behind the clouds. Still it was a lot brighter out there than in my office here.
Actually, at this time of day sunlight is supposed to be streaming into my office through the curtains, which I have pulled all the way back. Instead, the sun has hidden itself behind heavy clouds and is only visible as a slightly brighter patch of grey in the sky.
I have no idea if it had an impact or not, but I tried out those breathe-right strips last night. They sent us a sampler pack so I thought I'd try them. Its often been mentioned that I have a small nose for my body size, so anything that helps me get air in the night sounds like a good thing. They aren't as easy to position as one might hope, but they also aren't as uncomfortable as I had imagined. It seemed to help a bit with breathing and didn't disturb my sleep at all. I'll have try try the other strip tonight (sample pack only held two -- kinda cheap for a trial).
