I discovered melatonin. It's replaced bourbon.

About a month or so someone turned me on to melatonin as a sleep aid. Prior to that almost every night I'd have a double shot of bourbon or sometimes brandy about a half hour before turning in.

I had discovered the bourbon helped keep my CPAP sleep numbers high. I've done this for quite some time. 

After trying out the melatonin for about a week I parked the bourbon bottle before bed. Melatonin is produced by the body to enhance sleep and as one ages the production slows down. A couple of melatonin gummies about a half hour before bed helps considerably with getting to sleep.

Right now my 'liquor ration' is down to a snort on Tuesday night after I read The Preamble of the Constitution on the Tuesday night ham net and 2 Guinness draughts on Wednesday night at the Sportsman club to get out of the house and socialize. The bourbon is an American thing. It's supposed to follow the reading of the Preamble.

I think I'm pretty much going to keep it that way for a while.
