You aren’t taking tap dance.”“ Buy for me?” she repeated.“ Well, let’s try them on.”She sat on the floor and took off her bright pink rain boots. When she stood up we heard “click”. She took a step, “click, click, click. ”Then sun came out and we went on our way. Our next stop was the grocery store.“Click, click, click…” people turned to look as we entered the store.

Make sure your bed is comfortable. It’s difficult to get deep and sound sleep on a bed that’s too soft, too hard or too small.”Next, Artis says: “cut down on stimulants such as tea or coffee especially in the evening. They interfere with falling asleep and prevent you from deep sleep. You’d better have a hot milky drink.”Then, the social media also has the ability to prevent you from falling asleep. Artis advises:” turn off mobile phone before bedtime! If you leave them on, they will not only prevent you from falling asleep, but wake you up from sleep.Finally, Artis says: “ have a warm bath, listen to some quiet music, or yoga and so on.
