Hi Wit, well done on your list...

It doesn't copy strikeout from word, so you have to strike in your post (has to be done in advanced)... Just highlight the bit you want crossed out, then click on the [strike]S[/strike] button (last one on the right) and it will come up (strike) (/strike) either side - when you post, they will be crossed out... HTH

WOW - thanks!!! I will update tonight after I do my Wednesday bit!!! hehehe

Morning All :hello:

Sshhhh..... ( I might be a bit better today ) Did the school run with DH who's a little wobbly to put it mildly, and we gave the pooch a quick walk.

All children are despatched back at school. I'm tired though. Could do with a little cosy curl up and a nap!

Pigpen Re: the wake up lamps. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Philips-HF3461-Wake-Up-Light-Alarm/dp/B000VI7K2C/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1227090675&sr=8-1

This is the one that I've got and I love it. However it must be said that it doesn't work if you're not getting enough sleep! (which given some of your late posts I would suggest you're not!! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: ) It starts half an hour before you're due to wake up, with a glow from the lamp, which gets brighter to simulate sunrise. Then at your chosen alarm time whatever noise you've set to wake you (radio, birdsong etc) will kick in really quietly, gradually getting louder over a few mins.

The idea is not to wake you with a jolt, and to prevent you hitting the snooze over and over - which just gives you broken sleep for however long you do it for!

The light stops the production of melatonin, and stimulates cortisol production, while you're still asleep, so that you shouldn't wake up feeling groggy. :cool:

However, it does not negate the need for sleep!!!! So given what you've described about your difficulty waking, I'd suggest that the problem is perhaps more to do with bedtime than wake time!!!

It takes a few attempts I think to get it right for you, but I love it, and wouldn't be without it. My DH used to be a snooze button addict..... I HATE the snooze button. He doesn't use it now, but gets up when the radio wakes him. ACE

HTH!!!
