I have no end of good reasons to stay awake most part of the night. I can only sleep when:

my kids (both) fall asleep

when they are asleep, until the burglar alarm of my neighbor springs

when it ceases and the kids fall asleep again, I can sleep unless I have a Stanford assignment to submit

when I am done, if no alarm is screaming and kids are still sleeping, as soon as the chamomile makes its effects.

So I can keep counting sheep while kids are kicking me in the big bed....good night, time for chamomile ;-)A
