Last nights sleep:
Ok, but I woke up at 5am and had trouble falling asleep again. That's what I get for looking at the clock. It was dark so I thought it was more like 3am and when I realized what time it really was all I could think was, "Arg... only 2 more hours of sleep!" Duh. When will I learn? Well, I showed that alarm clock. When it went off I turned it off and fell asleep for another 2 hours.

Comments:
I've definitely noticed a difference in my moods. I've just started my period, so the last two weeks normally would have been spent being a tad shriek-y. The treatment I was doing for my Adrenal Fatigue prior to GAPS really helped nip that in the butt. GAPS has made a further difference in balancing those old hormones. I was almost non-reactive. Maybe a bit sensitive, but not fly-off-the-handle-angry over any silly little thing. Nice.
