I agree with this 100% B. I am loving laughter more and more every year. As far as sleep goes that seems to be a real challenge for me. .....og

The laughing is a done deal, the sleeping, not so!

It's hard to do without either.

I meant the laughing is easy, but sleeping soundly is tough!

Since ex husband passed away in July, sleeping has become difficult...
Hope it passes with time.

I have a friend who all we do is laugh....and so cultivating more friends like that is the trick.

On sleeping, only 1 cup coffee a day. And exercise any kind cleaning house briskly, walking, window shopping, exercise bike, anything to wear you out. I remember my truck got stuck in the snow and no one around to help, I had to shovel for 20 mins in the fresh air, and that night I slept like a baby. ....og

Very true! I found I sleep better when I have talked things out with someone that was sitting in my brain and physically wore myself out. I have had rougher times during emotional duress, but I believe all things cycle. Sending you all love and support!
