I suspect it is the hot weather recently, or the birds waking me up at first light. But lately I have been very tired by 10pm, and going to bed even earlier than that.
This means that I might miss some of your posts because of time differences, but I will catch up when I can, promise.
It is only 7pm here, and I have not even eaten dinner. But it already feels like midnight, so I will be offline soon, and preparing for bed before it even gets dark.
I hope it is just the season, and nothing sinister.
I think its the season, Pete! I also got it, for over a week. Now after making my coffee much stronger i am feeling better. 😉 xx Michael

It could have been the hot weather combined with the Hay Fever tablets.

The heat has given me headaches, and that combined with the cold from the air conditioning at a friend’s house means I’m feeling pretty tired as well. I think we don’t sleep that well in the heat in most cases, so not surprised you’re feeling tired. The hay fever tablets are also likely culprits. Take it easy, Pete.

Yes! Hubby had the same thing during a hot spell that was the same time as our worst pollen season. Claritin made him very drowsy.

I’m always in bed by 10pm, but am awake usually by around 05:30. I start to get tired around 8pm and sometimes I have to force myself to stay awake. I put it down to age, lol.

Totally understand! I’ve been really tired too, though there’s no way to blame it on the heat here which has only recently turned decent. For me I think it’s been too much activity lately! Rest up and take care, Pete.

The heat does zap your energy and is probably what is going on. You take care of yourself and just listen to your body, get that extra sleep if it feels it needs it. Summers are always hard on me too because I feel like the minute it is too hot, I loose all my energy. Take care!

Having resisted the use of A/C for several days in a row here in Las Vegas (yesterday’s high was 101° F / 38° C), I can tell you that heat wears you out. I went to bed last night around 9:30, and didn’t wake up this morning until after 7:00. Today, we’re getting a break: 95° F / 35° C, so the A/C will again collect dust. But tomorrow and thereafter is a different story…

I go to bed before 10 every night. Usually I am sleeping by 8:30. I get up around 4 or 5am though. I wonder if your so tired because you have been worrying over your drivers license? Could also be the weather. Anyway hope its nothing to worry about and things get back to normal soon.
