INSOMNIA!

I love to sleep. period.  But I like to sleep when it's time to sleep. I do enjoy naps on the odd day off from work, they are really not enjoyed as much as they should be by a large number of people. They think they will be frowned upon if they "admit" they like to nap. I do it proudly.  When I can't sleep at night because I've had a nap in the day I accept it. But when I cannot sleep at night because of  menopause I am not happy!! God's plan for women to have babies I agree with, God's plan that women have periods for how many years, and then have to go through menopause is not funny.  Menopause is in red because it makes me angry, makes me moody, makes me HOT! and messes with my sleeping.  I accept the symptoms but I am not liking them.  My family is tired of me all of sudden saying OHHHH IT'S HOT! turn on the FAN! turn down the AIR! and of course I throw off the covers up to 6 times a night.  Turn the covers back, and then doze off, wake up cold, and then cover back up.... hour and half later off go the covers and the whole process is repeated.  I guess the question I need to ask is how long does this last and can I make it through without actually wanting to kill someone in my house, that doesn't understand how out of control you can feel. It is really just like PMS  but with more HEAT,  and INSOMNIA!
I think I am going back to bed!  Good thing I am off work now and can sleep in, otherwise,  I would be much grumpier than I am already lol.
