Well........????

Not really, still waking every hour on the hour. Got used to it now. I put it down to lack of excercise because I still cannot do a full days work as I have to ease the knee back in carefully. The yeti says it is a guilty conscience and serves me right. :-\
I do not consider my sleep pattern as unusual. Now, It is the way I am.
I get up & make a drink. Watch TV or go on the internet and then when I feel a bit tired. Get more kip..
Or stay up.
What ever.
Been like it for over 30 years. Not a problem, just don't disturb others.
It was a bit of a problem at first. Doctors tried to give me pills but I wont take pills.
Then I found a site where there were loads of people the same.
Some had spent that 'Useless time' doing something useful. Writing a novel was the one that got me. One woman wrote a trilogy of best sellers. Some one else painted. Another person went on a site to the other side of the world where it was day time and simply chatted.
Personally I cannot be bothered. But if you suffer from this, what they call insomnia. Use the time of peace and quiet to your advantage...
Find something quiet to do and stop fighting it.
Hold things like e-mails until later to send them. They are timed and dated Some bright spark wants to know why you were still up at 4am. NOT why did you wake up at four o'clock.
There are loads of 'quiet' things to do in the wee small hours.
Don'[t take drugs. Legal or not.
