Or flavoured green teas? Some teas don't have caffeine so are good to have in the evening towards bedtime instead of a beer, and won't keep you awake, or you could have a posh hot chocolate before bed too on non-alcohol nights (I have one with chilli at the minute). I don't tend to have coffee later than about 7pm unless I'm planning to stay awake! But having a decent coffee is a nice 'treat' to look forward to when you come home from work or just after tea, instead of a beer. If you'd like me to send you a few different sachets of herb or spice teas from my collection so you can try some out without having to buy a box, DM me your address!<br /><br />I get you about the hair - though I hope we do actually get a summer to make your hair sacrifice worthwhile ;-)<br />tania_nexusthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15170308777551803844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7115711129217514621.post-80622568044001740432013-05-21T16:22:08.105+01:002013-05-21T16:22:08.105+01:00Cheers for your comment.

Right now I'm feeling that these are things I need to do.<br /><br />Coffee is definitely something I want to get into, although I have a feeling that it really won't help much with the lack of sleep. I've been wanting to explore teas though as I bloody love green tea.<br /><br />And about the hair, I love it but it's so thick and annoying that I wanna start from scratch after the summer is over. I hate my long hair in summer.<br /><br />Cheers!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03393611989380622061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7115711129217514621.post-60095565072769207992013-05-21T16:20:00.174+01:002013-05-21T16:20:00.174+01:00sorry the hair is going to go though :-(sorry the hair is going to go though :-(tania_nexusthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15170308777551803844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7115711129217514621.post-77275748800025570562013-05-21T16:16:22.184+01:002013-05-21T16:16:22.184+01:00Aww good luck with making changes to get you close...Aww good luck with making changes to get you closer to where/what you want to be. If it helps any, it might be good to look on nights of abstinence / packed lunches etc. not as something negative, i.e. denying yourself something, but instead as you 'earning' the nights you are going to have a beer or a day out. And getting into a mindset of deciding not to drink rather than "wasting liver capacity" on a shit (or even mediocure!) beer, works for me - it seems like second nature to me now to decide on a more interesting soft drink or explore some herbal tea or different coffee beans rather than drink an alcoholic drink that I don't actually want. Cycling in the evenings too for a bit (if we get some spring/summer weather!) is also a good way of breaking up an evening, getting you out from the screen, and tiring you out to hopefully help with sleep. Hope things improve for you, and I might pop over to say hi when you're on your birthday crawl in London!tania_nexusthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15170308777551803844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7115711129217514621.post-51348422863745879572013-05-21T09:53:43.799+01:002013-05-21T09:53:43.799+01:00Cheers mate.
