Is Anyone Else Tired? Or is it just me?
I had my first day off in a while yesterday. I basically did nothing but update my to do list and reply to a few emails. Then I fussed over some housework, picked up the groceries and cuddled with the kids. They’re on holiday from school right now so every day is playful and noisy.
Bajidoo.com is working overtime right now creating new bangles and I was just updated with 2 more designs so here’s a sneak peak for you:
Awesome! I’m still amazed. I love them so much.
I thought I’d use my ‘day off’ to work on some new business card designs. I thought it’d be an easy enough task but do you think I can settle on anything? No! I’ve been through about 20 different designs now but there’s nothing that just yells YES at me. So that’s still a work in progress. I picked ‘New design for business cards’ off my to do list because it seemed like the simplest task to do. However, I’m not too proud to admit that it is driving me absolutely insane, lol.
If you have amazing business card design skills, feel free to contact me. I’ll be ordering some this week. Reasonable rates requested.
In the mean time I got some awesome tips from you guys on my recent post about insomnia. I wanted to share them in a post because I know there are plenty of others reading this that could use the tips as well. Thank you for sharing them!
- Rose Quartz – Melissa’s husband had been suffering from insomnia so she bought him a piece of rose quartz that he now wears around his neck. Ever since he began wearing it he has conked out at bedtime and had whole nights of deep sleep. I’m yet to get to the stones store to get myself something but I love this tip.
- A homeopathic remedy called Coffea is available, the link was broken but another good idea, passed on from Lynette.
- A weighted blanket! I had completely forgotten about this one. I’ve been doing it ever since being reminded and while I’m still struggling to get to sleep, I’m definitely having an improved quality of sleep when I finally conk out. Rebecca mentioned there’s also a woman than makes and sells weighted blankets online. I believe mine came from a chinese shop somewhere in Otahuhu. Thanks Mum
- Carmen also struggles with insomnia and says that her doctor recommended spending 1-2 hours a day outside being active in daylight/sun. I KNOW this one works. Just a pity I have no sun!
So there we go, four fantastic free and affordable ways to battle insomnia to test out in the coming weeks. If something works for you, let me know! I’m keen to try anything.

AWESOME BANGLE DESIGNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’ve only been out of my house to get the groceries this week! It’s just safer from the weather inside hehehe. Are you going to try the rose quartz too? I really want to try. Can’t wait to get my hands on some type of healing stone. my Dad made me one when I was younger and I loved it.
As for the bangles, arrrgh I just want to tell the whole world, they’re so cool lol. I love that I can see my paintings translate so well onto another media.
Hello. Have any of you tried meditation cds? The idea is that you are not supposed to fall asleep. You’re just supposed to relax and drift of for a bit. But it seems to do the job
Don’t think I’ve managed to get to end of one yet. With insomnia, the pressure is on to sleep, so you don’t. But if you try to stay awake, you kind of end up falling asleep 
I did try some. It took a few days for it to work. The first few nights I’d get to the end and then lie there for a while until I decided to get up and switch the cds over to try again lol. I think on about the 4th night I was beginning to drift off after about 20 minutes. Thanks for the reminder. The baby is in our room so I’ve stopped putting anything on for now. He’ll be out soon, will try then.
