Insomnia.....

I have bouts of insomnia. It rears it's in various forms: a racing mind that stops, cruelly, only when I open my eyes. At times I wake every hour - on the hour. Victim of some horrible internal clock that someone else set. But - restless legs are the most common problem. Every night of the entire first year of my marriage was spent wandering the house, stretching, walking, cursing trying to get the "electricity" to stop running up and down my legs.
Reiki helps. Massage helps. Alas, these have not been within my reach lately and now I am up. At 3:03am. I have to be up for work at 6:30am. Yes, I could take Rx drugs for this, but I hate to take pills. I'm calling my massage goddess tomorrow.
