Just that really - I’m usually an early bird and would love an insight into those who are up late

Clockwatchers Flowers hope you get one soon.

Still ill after the wonderful ( 🙄 ) emergence of the genetic condition that mum didn’t tell me runs on my dads side of the family. My mum thought because he left us as young kids “it wouldn’t matter”. Turns out your dna is the same after your parents divorce. I’m not sleeping so well because I’m devastated basically. It may cost me my career. Which funds my dds and I wonderful lifestyle. Mortgage, savings, private health care, the lot.
Sorry....you did ask 😂

I’m exercising my hamsters.

Jenasaurus · 12/05/2019 01:46

I’m awake as I feel lonely and a little sad.

ladyvimes · 12/05/2019 01:49

Just got in from a night out with my friend. Off to bed now. Bit tipsy!
Those of you with little one who wake a lot. I does get better. Mine are now primary school age and sleep well, although dd will be up at 6.30; it’s dh’s turn!

13 month old has a sick bug, currently dozing on me, I have sick on my shoulder and am really cold but dare not move...
Flowers to those going through tough times

Verastsnhope · 12/05/2019 01:58

@Jenasaurus hello! Me too. I’ve been alone for 2 weeks now. I want to send you a virtual cuddle. My dd is with her dad now. It’s lonely, isn’t it? ♥️

RubberTreePlant · 12/05/2019 01:58

My completely effed up back. Intermittent sleep is normal for me now.

RubberTreePlant · 12/05/2019 01:58

@Jenasaurus Thanks

OddCat · 12/05/2019 01:59

I've got a stinking cold, ache all over , hot and cold sweats , thumping headache and can't breathe .

Verastsnhope · 12/05/2019 02:01

@OddCat you need a lemsip with some whiskey and honey in. Will cure whatever ails ya

AndYouMayAskYourself · 12/05/2019 02:02

I'm awake because I'm in pain. I've just taken some painkillers. I'm hoping they will work.
DH is asleep next to me.

That's a pretty cat.

Jenasaurus · 12/05/2019 02:05

Thank you for the virtual hugs. Sending them back to you too x

I waited excitedly for my long distance BF to come and spend some time with me. He arrived. Ate my food then announced he had to go back to his home town and when I hugged him. I felt sad and empty. He left after only an hour. I realised just now when I hugged him his arms were hanging by his sides and not hugging me back. I feel so sad I was looking forward to seeing him. We only meet up every month for a weekend. But I was hoping for more than an hour.

Verastsnhope · 12/05/2019 02:08

@Jenasaurus then you’re a better person than him. He’s not got the guts to do anything more than what he thinks you will accept right now to make his conscience feel better. Start a new life tomorrow. Without him. 🌹

Because I’m struggling with insomnia since my husband and I decided to separate earlier this week so I had a mooch into town and wandered round some of the doors I used to work on chatting to old friends I haven’t seen in ages.

It was good for the soul and I’m now curled up at home with a great big dirty kebab which will make me feel like shit in the morning but is so worth it!

Jenasaurus · 12/05/2019 02:13

Thank you for your kindness verastsnhope. Just sent him this message. I felt I had to let him know he had upset me so if it’s over at least he knows why

“you didn’t hug me back. I hugged you and your arms hung limply at your sides. Your body was rigid like a small child suffering an unwelcome kiss from an old aunt. I realise that why I feel sad and empty. Never mind I expect you had your reasons”

SneakyGremlins · 12/05/2019 02:15

I've been struggling to beat a level on crash bandicoot on my switch for hours now

And I can hear drunk people yelling. I live on the town marketplace - we have at least four pubs and a few bars and clubs all on the marketplace, as well as approx 10 takeaways so it's really fucking noisy.

And I think my immunosuppressants have stopped working.

Basilneedswaterandsun · 12/05/2019 02:17

I’m over thinking my life and wish it was simpler
Trying to finish an msc thesis which is doing my head in now

Verastsnhope · 12/05/2019 02:17

@Jenasaurus well done. He obviously needs the easy way out, and you’ve responded with dignity. All you have is your integrity at the end of the day. And you’ve got yours. He will regret losing you when his first bunny boiler turns on him. By then you’ll be fine 🌼🌼🌼

Rockbird · 12/05/2019 02:18

Awake because dd2 is ill. She's usually a happy little thing and I can't remember the last time she was ill but she's burning up and has been in bed all day. I know it's a tiny thing and she'll be fine soon but I really hate the kids being ill. I'd rather be ill myself.

BetterEatCheese · 12/05/2019 02:19

I'm up sewing for an order I need to deliver tomorrow

dreichuplands · 12/05/2019 02:22

Not late in Chicago, watching iron man 2 with dc. We have to work through the whole avengers back catalogue apparently!
I shouldn't have taken ds to see Avengers end game.

Greeborising · 12/05/2019 02:32

I’m still up (UK) cos I’ve been dieting all week and Friday n Saturday are the only nights I’ll allow myself wine so dragging it out!

Candymay · 12/05/2019 02:34

I’m up researching how I’m going to buy and fit an electrical transformer to set up my new video door bell. More parts needed. I hope everyone who is sick feels better soon.

How is keto working for you? I found out yesterday I have diabetes. My A1C was 13, which is bad. So I have to lose weight.
