I hate the nights too. It used to be such a great feeling when everything is done for the day, boys are asleep, and you can relax.
Now I start feeling a little anxious when the sun starts to go down.
I just use my time reading and try not to go to bed early.
It's great you can obtain comfort from prayer and the Bible.
