Melatonin is the answer!!! Oh, I know this one!!
No know side effects.
Non-addicting.
Makes a person sleepy but not drugged...
We all take one in this house!
(available at GNC in 1 & 3 mg. I get the 1 mg and cut them in half and it works GREAT!!!!!! That's what the Dr said to do...)
I wonder if Ben secretly reads your blog? The other night (I guess technically morning since it was about 3am) he asked me why God made night so long....
