oh another thought, for those who cannot be considerate of your time working, during certain hours, you might say automatically, I would love to talk to you how about time X or time X?  What would work for you?  I have issues with this because sometimes I don't have the energy to sit and talk but I do try to ask when is a better time I call you, right now is not working for me. Or lol, I have my ringer off, get voice messages and return the calls when I am ready to do so. My real friends know the score.

I do this as well!!! It is indeed odd to be up and totally awake when the rest of the world sleeps. To be honest,I have always been a nightowl and it started back when I was a little kid. I even use to get up at 2-3am and read a book.  My mom had said I couldn't watch tv, because that would wake the house up but I could read quietly lol. I tried so hard, but I was bored a lot!

I also find because of pain issues I do sleep better in the am, after everyone else is getting up. I get tired around 5am and sleep much better before noon. I don't know why this is, it just is. Less pain when I wake up, maybe its the night air change? the morning air is more moist? I don't know.

Dr Wayne Dryer has noted that there is a particular time, everyone wakes up, like 3:30 am.  He states that pple wake up often at the same exact time and it signifys the time we can be most creative in any art, such as painting or writing. He says that this is the time we are closest to our creator. I do believe that because I also have found that I do better, psychically, online or any energy way of communicating, when things are quieter and calmer. Sometimes I feel like, online, it is way too much for me.

Things I have learned to do is, turn off the ringer on the phone, when I am at optimal sleep mode. This has helped me immensely because the more rest I get the better I feel as far as medications and pain. Lets add better activity then when awake. I have a sign on my front door that says "no solititations!".  Otherwise I get church visitors, politians visiting exct.  Charlie has said it is unnessasary for me to answer the door anyway in the daytime, since I am disabled and alone. He has a great sense of protection in that area, which is not bad to have, as I never considered it. I make apts later in the day, or afternoons. I try to do them before the work crowd gets off to be respectful of those that work. Charlie has to do the shopping, and prefers to do so late at night. So there are many benefits to it.

For those who raise their eyebrows at you, which when I think of literally makes me giggle, lol, I would suggest that there are many many people who work different graveyard shifts. And bless them, we need them to do so. Grocery folks who stock up, mail people who transport out mail, trucking industry, any food industry, any emergency folks, security folks, medical...the list goes on and on. So they can just go lick an egg! lol
