Sleepless nights

I have been at work now for 11 1/2 hours. My shift is almost over! I have spent the night hanging antibiotics, taking temperatures and silencing alarms for the babies I am taking care of. It has actually been fairly quiet so I have been able to read a little (shh, don't tell the superiors!), and I am longing for my pillow now. But I wonder, what do you do on sleepless nights?

I lay on the couch & veg. in front of the T.V. - that always makes me tired. I can't play on the computer because it's in my room & George never has a problem sleeping unless I'm on the computer!

Take sleeping pills. If that doesn't work then I usually lay in bed over analyzing something that is on my mind. Then keep thinking over and over again I wish I could fall asleep, how come I can't fall asleep.
