My shoulder has been killing me for the last 12 hours. I blew it out in 1998 and had the ligament holding it together stapled back. I didn't do anything obvious on the hill today to cause this.

God Geoff....I feel for you man. Sleeping with a shoulder injury is the pits. When I had surgery for my separated shoulder it was the pits. I never felt pain like that before. I would just load up on vikes and sleep on a lazyboy.

I feel for you young daddy, i've been there !!! . It's often difficult to balance all demands on one's time and $$ when the family is your primary focus . But that's often the case with most of us who have been young moms and dad's . You get out infrequently since its all about the needs of others now -- but its WORTH it in the end ****

My only advice is go for Qualty not quantity in skiing days till the little one can go with you .


***** BYway of opinion in the end retirement is like "Adolescence WITH $$$ "---- ya get to do neat stuff when you want to .

Endure Beano !!!

Almost added to this thread last night as pre-storm excitement consumed my brain No way tonight as I'm exhausted after basically a first chair to last chair day today

I've got a newborn at home so I'm up. I just finished feeding her and she's sleeping, hopefully I'll get a few hours sleep.

Wide awake... can't fall asleep. Just went down into the basement to do some laundry and ended up rearranging one of the corners so I could get to things better.

 

[severine]

Can't sleep again. How frustrating!!! Everybody else is fast asleep and I just can't shut my brain down.

 

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

I am awake!!!

I was there last week. One word....Hycodan.

I was there last week. One word....Hycodan.

Amen Doc! I almost went for it last night(got my wife through a nasty cough about a month ago), but from past experiences with it, I was pretty sure that my 8AM patient this morning wouldn't appreciate me taking it just before 3AM when I considered it

Tonight though, soon after the kids are in bed and household chores are in order, me and that glorious bottle of narcotic elixir have a date and I'm getting some sleep!

Hycodan +1 A "shotglass" full about 10 minutes before the head hit the pillow and it was 7 hours of pure, uninterrupted, quiet, unconscious bliss last night

 

[BeanoNYC]

Never heard of Hycodan. Over the counter? Better than Nyquil?

Perscription only(but I'm sure it's available OTC(On The Corner) of some streets - basically Vicodin syrup with a cough suppressant thrown in for good measure Makes Nyquil seem like plain 'ol water!

 

[AMAC2233]

I wish I was sleeping. It's going to be another late night with homework. Is it summer yet?

 

[dmc]

I haven't slept more then a couple hours a night since returning from Korea...
i hope tonight ends the cycle...

 

[Trekchick]

Here I am, up a second time tonight.
I had a phenomenal bike ride Wed night on an familiar trail with some new interesting sections thrown in. When I got home, I was happily exhausted and fell asleep immediately after a refreshing shower.
Then it came.....the 2:30 wake up from a great sleep, and quite frankly an amazing dream.
Got on line for about an hour signing off at 3:30 to try and get some more shut eye, to no avail.

Is it possible that I slept so blissfully that I'm actually up for the day?
I hope not. If so, then I suspect I'll hit a wall about 2 pm today.
