He gets up, sighs, flounces, then throws himself down against me again, like, "This time it will be different!" And I've been an insomniac for nigh onto 20 years, but this waking at 3 and NOT going back to sleep crap is really unpleasant, given my daily labor.Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16862784896982818464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5219359.post-1159750262445529682006-10-01T20:51:00.000-04:002006-10-01T20:51:00.000-04:00I am sorry to say that menopause doesn't inprove t...I am sorry to say that menopause doesn't inprove the sleep issue. I have never been a great sleeper, but I have a horrid time getting to sleep. Once asleep, I am ok, but getting there is a chore.

But as for running out of yarn, I can't just stop a cuff because I can't stand short socks personally, and my son certainly wouldn't want to wear them that way. I have enough for socks for myself and gloves for my daughter, I'll just have to Buy Yarn for my son while I'm visiting.

I like to knit them toe-up, so I can simply stop on the cuff when I run out of yarn. (I don't actually know what that has to do with periomenopause, but I thought I would throw that in.) I have also lost a fortune's worth of double pointed needles, and this method does solve that.

I love them.<BR/>And yes, perimenopause S**ks but menopause isn't a whole lot better, except of course, for the obvious!
