Sleep has been hard to come by. I'm getting better at sleeping in daylight. . . because I have to. When it's always daylight, you gotta sleep sometime! I've had several nights where I can't fall asleep until really late and then I wake up early. Kevin had some Ambien (prescription sleeping pill) so he gave me one to try so I can get at least one good nights sleep. Whoa! is all I have to say. He gave it to me the other day, but I figured I'd take it when I really needed it. I took it just before midnight last night and I could feel it knocking me out. The weird thing about it, though, was that it knocked me out, but for a while I felt like I was awake and asleep at the same time. It's like when you're in a very light sleep where you're sort of in a dreaming state, but sort of awake. It was very strange because I was thinking, but I knew I was asleep. I just remember knowing I was out cold, but still feeling like I was there somewhere, which made me worried that my 'sleep' would be like that the whole night. So, basically, I was worrying in my sleep.
I did get some good sleep, which is all that counts. I don't know if that weird feeling was a fluke or not, but if it wasn't then I definitely won't be taking any more sleeping pills! Anybody out there ever take Ambien before that's had weird experiences like that?

Tara, I saw something on the news about a biking event in Anchorage, where a girl was attacked by a bear. Did you hear about it? I thought of you right away.
Be safe!
I asked frenchy about it. She said there have been more bears than usual in Anchorage and they're in really populated areas, too! It's funny because I'm in the woods and I haven't seen ONE!!
