Janie, most excellent advice. Jeri, thanks for that. Helps explain what I was going through when so ill and stressed with too little night-time sleep.

Steve, my Rog often gets racked up at work that way, too. He finds a distraction on the internet via one or two websites which allow his mind to settle down and let go until the next day at work. A friend of mine would play endless hours of solitaire on her computer to keep from letting the stress take over her mind.

I hope things get on a more even keel for you. Employers really need to understand what they are asking of their people. It would be good if they all read "Hug Your People."

Take care,
