Working my way round the insomnia

The insomnia isn't as bad now. Well, every other night it isn't too bad. I've now given up trying to get a 'normal' sleep pattern and have realised that going back to my old job of teaching adults in a difficult environment would not be the best idea. Instead I've decided to do freelance work from home. Perfect! I can work when I'm awake and it doesn't matter when that is. I don't have to lie awake for hours because I don't want to take a sleeping tablet for the insomnia - I can get up and do something, and it doesn't matter if I doze off again in the afternoon. Besides I can have clients in any time zone and still communicate with them in real time - wonderful!

Or is it? I might not have to get up at 6.30 every morning (which is the nightmare of many an insomniac) but the work of a freelancer isn't guaranteed, and it can consist of boring, repetitive work that can numb the brain... Or maybe it might actually help me sleep....
