I can't sleep!

All the lights are off, I'm not worrying about anything, but I can't drift off!

So what's the best option, get up and have a snack?

Hi OP,

Are you peckish? If so a snack might help!

Frownette · 06/06/2020 02:55

I'd probably have to do scrambled eggs and mushrooms...it feels a bit ridiculous lying here in the dark fully alert.

I so envy people who put their heads on the pillow and fall asleep

Go for it! Then you might feel that after food sleepy haze and go off to sleep a while after.

I know I do too, my DH is just like that, he’s currently snoring away next to me!

Frownette · 06/06/2020 03:06

Lucky DH! I've just had toast with hummus and chilli flakes and lemon juice.

Now trying to conjure up the gods of sleep...

Hope you manage to get there too!

Would you like to borrow my toddler for entertainment? He’s been up since midnight.
Now I want a snack...

I'm just going to wing it until 7am when the shops open and I can get a consolatary cigarette and cup of tea. Any sleep skills have deserted me tonight.

I don't believe I know you so no pics

Can't sleep either, after lying there for 5 hours I've finally given up and got up!

Frownette · 06/06/2020 04:49

@Serendipity09 you might have the best idea.

I didn't do the washing up last night so guess I could crack on with that, it's a bit pointless hoping for sleep now!

No but you can come here and do the washing up and vacuuming if you like. And make me a cup of tea.
