Whose still awake?

[Bumble1830]

This heat is slowly killing me off.... But I don't want it to end either, would just be nice to have a good night sleep 😴😴😴

Just been interviewed out on the drive, in my "not quite up to the job" summer heatwave nightwear.

Wide awake here. Nothing to do with the heat though, just chronic insomnia as usual. What is slightly unusual is DS (14) also came downstairs saying he can’t sleep and is now lying on the sofa in his pants fast asleep, dribbling 😂.

Busy night! Is it bad that a tiny part of me wishes that someone would try to steal my car just to give me something to do?

Can't get back to sleep and I've got to work in the morning. Primary teacher who hasn't broken up yet. A whole day, trapped in a classroom with 30 kids and no aircon or fan!
Kill me now!

Oh Wow, that's so not wow! for anyone struggling with things other than the heat. Hot and fed-up this end. Lying in bed fantasising about aircon and wishing DCat didn't want to snuggle

Read the thread earlier asking if people left their children's bedroom windows open and I think it got me worrying.

IL's are visiting and I just woke up convinced someone was in the house, panicking thinking what to do, of course it was just fil using the bathroom.
Now I can't get back to sleep.

Got woken up by a bloody mosquito buzzing around my ear. .
Now can’t sleep.

I'm awake because my little cat's got himself stuck in NDNs garden and can't scale the wall. Been traipsing around the neighbourhood looking for him since 11, then weeping whilst waiting for missing flyers to print off. Just as they were finishing printing, I heard his annoyed little yowl over the wall! Posted a note through neighbour's door, so am drumming fingers impatiently until I can collect him.

I'm so sorry for you loss makingmyway.We love them so much, don't we?

Still up - large animal vet - just finished a cow Caesarian. Now in the practice cleaning kit and making eye drops for a dog that’s coming in tomorrow. Don’t like going to bed with a dirty kit.

Makingmyway10- very sorry to hear about your dog - it’s horrible when you lose them

So I was happily sleeping when around 1am somebody was shouting outside. With the open windows it felt as though somebody was shouting in my ear!! That completely woke me up.

Still awake! Both my ds's slept early so no doubt will be up by 6am

Been awake on and off since 1am. DD1 cane in to my bed first because she was hot. DD2 then came in and BF continuously before I got up to get her some water. Now laying on the sofa bfing DD who wont stop nipple twiddling and it's driving me mad. I have to be up for work in 2 1/2 hours.

Can’t sleep at all since my teenager screamed at me that I’m a “fucking twat”. Need to be getting up for work in a couple of hours.

Wide awake here too.
Too much on my mind.

We're expecting 47ºC here tomorrow. It's awful.
Try wrapping ice cubes in a damp tea towel and then place towel with ice on back of your neck. It really helps for getting to sleep on hot nights.

47!!!!! ?????? Surely you mean 37

Timshort just saw this now, hope holiday goes okay and you're okay

Also strawberr hope you got on better today with your teenager

Hope we all manage to get some shut eye tonight, for those of us who can't sleep due to weather. Looks like there's rain coming so fingers crossed.
For everyone else whose having personal struggles, hopefully things seem better today.

No real rain forecast here...but def some hotter nights...soooo tired 😴

In New England we had a crazy hot late June and early July (high temps around 35) , but it's been much milder since then, with highs around 28 and quite a bit of rain.

We still run the aircon, but just during the day.

Sorry not to answer sooner Linoleum but yes, 47º. Not quite Death Valley but close enough. Heart thumping warm but not too humid, which is what makes heat feel especially bad in otherwise relatively moderate climates.

I’m trying to post something and I’ve been a member for a long time and I’ve committed on threads etc but I can’t find how to post a new thread .... can anyone help me .... sorry for jumping in here x

MrsPawsitive not UK, I was going to say! I live in a dry climate too, so 40+ in summer. I can't stand the heart and humidity in the UK at summer time. Not nice. I lived in Florida and Rio de Janeiro...nasty humidity, never again!

Heat, obviously not heart!
