Hey! So I've been guilty of derailing the topics of other threads by going on about pointless things - did you know I managed to find pasta today? Yes I'm still thrilled about that. šŸ˜‚ So decided to make a thread for general chat, make yourself a coffee or tea, pull up a chair & relax and post whatever you like. Talk about the weather where you are? Nothing is pointless here xo

For about a week every month I struggle to sleep. Iā€™m pretty sure itā€™s hormonal, pms symptom maybe. Iā€™m wide awake at nearly 4am and every time I close my eyes, my brain goes into over drive thinking of any possible thing to cause anxiety and my usual tactics to block them out and divert my thoughts donā€™t work and I also feel fidgety and like my bed is super uncomfortable. I have to literally force myself to stay still enough to drop off. I do often get to sleep, eventually but Iā€™m not sure if thereā€™s even any point in trying at this point. Does anyone else get this?? I googled and it does seem to be a thing and not something thatā€™s in my head. A lot of people get fatigue during pms but not being able to sleep/insomnia isnā€™t talked about it as much it seems. I know itā€™ll catch up with me tomorrow, hence why I usually force myself to bed. But with the lockdown im kinda thinking whatā€™s the point I donā€™t even have anywhere to go tomorrow, although it is my turn to get up with the children. But again, my dilemma is would it be easier to sleep for a couple of hours and wake up with them or just stay awake?

Ugh, sorry for the ramble. Whether I get a measly few hours sleep or not, tomorrow is going to be a long day.

As am I. I think Iā€™ve given up now, there would be no point even sleeping for an hour. Plus it would take me at least an hour to get to sleep in the first place. Can hear the birds chirping, thatā€™s when you know youā€™re past the point of no return.

Dreading today.

Morning all.
Thanks for starting this thread.
Itā€™s good to have an ā€œanything goesā€ thread which we canā€™t derail!
Sunny here today so about to hang out my washing.
Yes, a trip to the garden is a highlight today! šŸ˜

Morning everyone!

How are you all today? I had a great sleep last night for the first time in weeks, I'm putting it down to the vodka and cranberry that I had before bed. Might have to have another one tonight šŸ™„

Sun is shining up in Aberdeen although it's sooooo windy!

Heard a Dr on TV say to get through the boredom of self isolation we should finish things we start and thus have more calm in our lives.
So I looked through the house to find all the things Iā€™ve started but havenā€™t finished........ so I finished off a bottle of Merlot, a bottle of Chardonnay, a bodle of Baileys, a butle of wum, tha mainder of Valiumum scriptuns an a box a chocletz.

šŸ˜‚ my dad is doing my mums head in, Iā€™m very thankful my husband is a key worker. I love him but oh my does he get under my feet. Iā€™m the DIYer in my house so heā€™s frankly useless being a home for long periods.

Iā€™m also not sleeping well at all at the moment. I need to get some calm in my life but Iā€™ve decided to declutter and redecorate and deep clean šŸ¤£šŸ¤£

This is exactly why I'm not doing any workouts in the lounge. Look at that rug!

It must be. No idea how long Iā€™ve had it for but Iā€™ve been noticing it for about year.

I did get some sleep in the end but my god, tired today! Bit cloudy here today, wish it could be a bit warmer like it was last week.
