I have "detailed" bathroom w/toothbrush, caught up on huge pile of laundry, mowed the yard (1 acre) a couple of times (when needed), really cleaned up the kitchen, redecorated bedroom, it goes on..... I had let all the chores alone since Mother-in-Law passed away on my Birthday, the day we finished moving in to her house to try to take better care of her. Both husband and I had been too depressed to do much of anything....

> > Hi there, I have been thinking of moving my time back to the morning also. I take mine around 4pm and before I take it Im like ready to take a nap. Then around 10 pm Im wide awake and can stay this way till 3 or 4 in the morning. In the past the lex made me so tired I could not stay awake. Like you I figure if I go back to the morning I will get tired at night. I will put all this energy to use during the day!!! The problem is I have moved my times around so many times. What I think should happen never works out. But its worth a try!!! We could always move back. What they call this feeling we get is a form of hyper mania. lil jimi will come along and give great deatail on this subject I hope!!! TAKE CARE!!!
