My wife works a 3 on 4 off schedule. 12 hrs shifts, all niters.
She works in super specialty cancer treatment.
We IM and send e mails back & fourth all nite.
She discovered something I found that makes working all niters easier,, a project.
I used to sneek away at work and re-build an engine, or re-build something,, some sort of project.
Wife is now planning a "A Hot Lap around the USA" trip for us this summer.
She has her maps and guidebooks ect and when her patients are sleeping, and nothing much is going on in the hospital she busts out her project.
One of her current patients is a famous Custom car designer and builder, everyone in motorsports knows and likes him and his work.
He had his cancerous bladder removed last week, and they re-built him a new bladder outta his intestine.
This way eliminates the need for a brutal lothsome external Colostomy bag.
Custom Car guys are all into custom fabrication, and building him a new bladder sounded perfect,, right along with his lifestyle and mindset.
MY wife has all kinds of funny stories of his stay already. Famous friends are visiting him.
Clint Eastwood, and others.
He told her tonite that lots of polititians call him for a custom car, and they all expect it for 100% free.
That's what's going on here all nite long,,, I'm an insomniac,, can't sleep, works great at Parker watching for thieves.
So why are you up all nite?
What's going on?

Take a 5mg pill and trust me, you will fall asleep in 20 minutes. I flip back and fourth every week. 3 nights - 3 days - 4 nights - 4 days. I have to take one pill every 3-4 days to flip good or I am out of it.

Trust me, I have tried all over the counter sleep aids. I was about to go ask the doctor for a perscription, but these are working really well.
