Thank you for this one, Abby. I have been feeling the same this year and was able to cobble out a similar conclusion that I am still an artist even when my system is set to "absorb" mode. Sooner or later I will flip over to output and things will be brilliant again. Keep making your own sunshine and dreaming of dahlias. 💖

Isn't it terrific that you feel comfortable enough to write about something that is personal and yet most people, including me, are reluctant to talk about it, i.e. sleeplessness?

Because I am of a certain age I wake up in the wee small hours, to... well... wee! It's often hard to return to the land of nod afterwards so I often lie there thinking and talking in my mind. Eventually I go back to sleep and when I awaken again the sun is starting to struggle above the horizon outside.

Now that I am retired I thank God I don't usually have to get up at a certain time. But sleeping and darkness, especially in winter, are fascinating topics to ponder, so thanks Abby for sharing.

Wow. Abby, your opening remarks are my life as well. Right down to the Rogan part. Thanks for your post. It resonates.

I only sleep well and deeply when I turn off the breaker. Earthern walls may dampen it, but stick frame houses as most live in will amplify the very frequent emissions that the whole copper wiring will amplify. I have repeated the experiment over 100 times by now. Trek to the basement, shut the breaker. Sleep. Ahhh. Wake up, trek to the baement, turn the breaker on. ps An old am fm radio tuned to 500 or 530 am will serve as a crude measure, it screams at my power box now that its an idiot meter.

Thanks for this, I do believe some of my issue is due to electromagnetic energies, I will be investigating it further this week.
