How do you fall asleep

[Erik101]

Read "War and Peace". I never make it past the second chapter. Please don't tell me how it ends, because I really don't care.:D

 

This! Or better yet, pick up a book on tax laws. It's guaranteed to put you to sleep!

First of all, I wish it were me having this problem.... In addition to everything already said, I would take ONE (not two) Tylenol PM and lie in bed blowing the ship horn on my cruise app until I finally just drift off with my finger still on the horn trigger :D

a book on tax laws thats funny. But it would work. tonight going to try 2 tylenol pm's I feel all jittery with excitement.

I am so excited and it's a little over a week to go. What do you do to help yourself sleep when you are super excited?

 

I drink plenty of booze. I go to sleep immediately.:eek:

Ok, my best how-to-go-to-sleep hint. I put a book in the CD player, and headphones on my head. Now, the proper way is a book you've already read a dozen times. I'm currently listening to the Twilight series, again. (for the umpteenth time) Puts me right to sleep. The trick is to keep the mind occupied while the body relaxes into sleep. I've also listened to Harry Potter books a trillion times.. lol

(this hint is also helpful when you need to drown out your husbands snoring, or noisy neighbors in the next cabin)

I've been doing it for at least 20 years. I now use my Ipad and Audable. (sp?) Absolutely heavenly. I find Sony's headphones comfortable, and I've tried them all.

Either way, its the night before my cruise and I'm just as excited as you!!!:D

Now that the packing has started it is even worse.

 

My husband and I keep texing each other with

 

"this time next week we will be............."

Hope you found a cure for your sleepless nights. I see you are sailing to Bermuda, We are going to Bermuda in 4 weeks. What is on your ajenda for the island if you don't mind me asking.

[momof3terriers]

I want to see the zoo.

 

I am leaving on the grandeur of the seas. Would be more than happy to take pictures of the ship, food, and Bermuda if you like and post them all when I get back on Oct. 3.

We would like to see the crystal caves and stop by Flatt's Village. Pictures of the Wharf area are always great.

I can't fall asleep the night before a cruise. Too excited. So after a restless night and a busy day of boarding the ship, unpacking, meeting up with new friends and then rushing to dinner I usually pass out around 9 and land up missing the first welcome aboard show.

[momof3terriers]

Oh I know I am going to be tired the night off the first night of the cruise. After not being able to sleep, and a busy day I have a reservation for a massage at 8:30 that night. I am going to sleep like a baby that night.

OMG!!! I'm not cruising until the end of November...this will be my first cruise and I just can't freaking wait!

 

My last thought as I get in bed each night is always this darn cruise...and I've struggled getting to sleep; and it's not even October yet.

 

So, I just cuddle up in the sheets and plan my wardrobe or go over a packing list in my head. It works better than counting sheep. Maybe as the date get's closer I'll switch to thinking about my Christmas lists!

[momof3terriers]

Really hard now since the fish on my countdown's nose is hitting the beach umbrella. I don't think I have ever been this excited. this is also our first cruise. So I am going over and over in my head what I need.

You can come with us to the zoo - it is one of the things our son wants to do...lol

[momof3terriers]

I love the zoo. Be glad too..
