I don't know if this will help anyone else, but I'll put it out there:
OTC sleep aids usually use an antihistamine, for the side-effect of making you drowsy. Not all are equal.
I go to sleep easily, but tend to wake up early - hours early. Doxylamine Succinate stays in your system longer, and will help you stay asleep. I buy 25mg tablets that break in half, so I'm getting 12-13mg, and that works for me.
But didn't great grandmother get married and stay married? Lived her life right! Not like the fast little girls we have today.
My great grandmother had 5 husbands. She married the first at 15. He was in his 40s and she was considered lucky since married to him they could not take the land she owned. (Rocky, hilly soil cut by a river in North Carolina)-- her first husband died of the flu and she got married again right away. She had to be married to exist.
She was a remarkable woman.
My sister reminded me that itβs the anniversary of my first book today! I published The Wolfβs Call on this day twelve years ago and itβs still going strong. Mind you, itβs free, which helps. π

Did you know that the first time terrorists used planes to attack Americans wasnβt on 9/11 or at Pearl Harbor? It was during the Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921 when white supremacists flew βa dozen planes to drop turpentine or nitroglycerin bombs & men shot from planes.β
103 years later, we must keep fighting for reparations for Tulsa Race Massacre survivors, and bring about meaningful racial justice in America.

In his annual Pride declaration
President Joe Biden made a condemned bans on healthcare for transgender youth as antithetical to the basic American values of life, safety, and dignity.
Where did I hear about it first? Oh, just the Daily Wire.
Look, I'm not a big Biden booster, I'm particularly unhappy about the genocide support thing, but I do think we need to be willing to give credit/call attention to strong supportive statements by the US President!!

So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
