Anyone awake?

[Stressedgiraffe]

Stupidly fell asleep at 9 so am now wide awake.
Still away for work so sleeping badly even though it's a comfy bed .

Anyone else awake?

Yes it's ongoing issue wake up in the early hours so I tend to while away time on MN.

urgh. yes ☹️

I'm half watching SEAL team on my tablet. It's the worst. If I was at home I'd get at least another hour before the cats go nuts.

Yep, went to bed at 12, partner snoring woke me up at 12.45. Been wide awake ever since. This happens most nights 😒

@devuskums I use ear plugs it muffles sounds, do you use them? Though dh snores so loud were now in separate rooms

Yep. I was late to sleep then my cat woke me up. He’s not supposed to be out at night but must have snuck out and thought better of it now. Meowing his head off to be let in! He’s now fast asleep on my bed and I’m here.

Yep, I'm on an overnight night bus to London.

Yes, with a headache and hot flushes. Teenage ds couldn't sleep so naturally hasn't allowed me to either 😒

@Livinginaclock not fun. How long are you in London for? Is it work or pleasure?

My longest bus journey was 30 hours but I was in my 20s and we travelled through 7 countries. It was hell at the time but I now look fondly at it

Oh god, 30 hours sounds awful.
This is just 8, I'm going to have fun fir a week, starting with seeing Moby tomorrow night.
I absolutely love London, 6th time I've been down this year.

I went from Czech Republic to Greece. Via lots of countries. Took loads of food. Pre smartphone.
Are you coming down from Scotland?

I'm away for work and always wake up early when I'm an uncomfortable bed. I'm normally up at 5am anyway but 3:30am is a little bit early even for me!

@Holidays78 me too! How long are you away for?

I'm awake. Had surgery on Tuesday . Big toe fusion. It's bloody killing me ! Going to have to try and get some stronger painkillers tomorrow

@BrummieCahoots that sounds painful!

@Stressedgiraffe . I think I underestimated how painful it would be !

I'm awake.. woke up drenched in sweat, had to change sheets and pyjamas etc. only 41 so now frantically googling peri menopause or if it's anything more sinister. Has been happening quite regularly.

Wide awake - had a restless few hours sleep then a short bout of indigestion. We eat way too late and my sleep pattern has become worse as I get older. I would love a solid 6-7 hours a night.

But my toe isn't painful and I'm not on a long overnight bus journey so it could be worse 😁

Why do the hours seem twice as long when you can't sleep?

Night shift, only 4 hours to go.

I am awake. My darling dog is having his leg amputated tomorrow, I am so worried about him.

Just repainted my nails and had a shower. Now to dry hair. I like it how a premier inn has a hairdryer.

I'm so sorry about your dog.

@Livinginaclock It sounds like you’ve got the London bug and need to come join us Londoners.
@Tootyfilou oh no! What caused that?

I’ve had a busy work week with no exercise or let up, so I’m on my knees. As a result, I’m waiting at 4am every morning. Go figure.

He had a bone biopsy as we were thinking of stem cell treatment for his osteoarthritis. Unfortunately the biopsy site became infected. He is currently an inpatient at Langford Veterinary Hospital. They cannot get on top of the infection so amputation is our only choice. He is the sweetest dog you can imagine and so active, absolutely lives for his walks and activities, its so sad. I love him beyond words.

I have to get up in an hour to go to work.
