...I promise you'll thank me. Get em'. [ link to www.amazon.com (secure)] I have them in my bedroom. Best purchase EVAH! Lol, they're awesome. The ones in the link aren't the exact ones I have (the ones in the link may even be better, idk), but they're on sale and you could have them by Friday. : ) Quoting: Simple27 I have thermal curtains in my bedroom too. Different color, but they do help. They also help keep my room cooler in summer and warmer in the winter. Quoting: KickinIt I use self stick black kitchen vinyl shelving material on the inside of my bedroom windows to stop the light. It works great and at very little cost or effort to install. Just a little Windex and a squeegee with a few minor cuts. Quoting: joinca Interesting, I like your idea. Cheap and it works. My only issue there for me is that I like to occasionally open the windows up and let some air and light in when it's nice out. I guess it's still possible w/your scenario, but the only light would be where the window is open. I have mini blinds behind the curtains, so there's double duty going on. I guess we all like our bedrooms like a bat cave :) Quoting: KickinIt Just leave a small cutout to see outside where convenient. The vinyl will still block out most of the outside light. I have it on the sliding glass doors on my bedroom and it works just fine. I also have heavy thermal curtains for the colder winters.

Simple - Thank you for the recommendation yesterday!! The curtains are going to have to be put on the backburner I'm afraid due to my situation. However, I got something that works even better and blocks out all light in my immediate vicinity (even the lights from power strips in my room were bothering me). [ link to www.amazon.com (secure)] It works so amazingly well I finally slept for the longest time last night and I feel sooooo refreshed this morning. Quoting: CuriousSeeker I'm glad you were able to get some sleep. : ) I can't sleep with something on my face so I had to go with the curtains. Quoting: Simple27 Do you know what my dogs would do to that face mask and me? :minion snap back: Quoting: -Haun- haha! Quoting: KickinIt Hahahahahahahaha!! :cryinglaugh1: |

Quoting: Simple27 I agree, I couldn't deal with that being on my face, but I'm so glad it worked for you CS! Some good sleep will help you feel a lot better. And related to this topic, I can't deal with earplugs either. I've tried and tried but they feel weird and I end up taking them out. Thankfully it's usually quiet in my neighborhood, but the smallest thing will wake me up. Like a bird chirping on my windowsill. Quoting: KickinIt Ugh me either. Hate them. Even my ear buds for my phone, but I sacrifice at times and use them lol. But I can't keep them in long. Quoting: Simple27 Perhaps my lifetime of wearing hearing aids has prepared me to deal with things like sleeping masks. |

Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Re: Earthquake Thread ~ Always Updated*5.5 Afghanistan ~ Pg 20354 I have some exciting news.... On Facebook the other day I saw an appeal for a home for a beautiful Bengal boy...same age as my Maiya....poor boy his 1st home didn't know about the breed....he picked on her dogs and knocked pills off the side so she rehomed him....then he was found dumped in the street so they checked his chip n brought him back to his 1st owner who did not want him back :( the shelter then had him taken into foster at a specialised bengal breeder who I have been in contact with...she is keeping him with her for a couple of weeks to check there is no underlying reason as to why the poor boy was dumped but she has had him a week and says he is lovely at the moment. I wasn't going to get another but he needs a good home and Maiya....although sure to have her nose put out of joint for a little while, but hopefully they will then get on and it will be good company for her whilst I'm out on my long night shifts! I'll show a pic later....just off to the School my youngest son GCSE meeting is tonight Xx
