Night Shift

[Appleblossom]

I miss actual video stores too. @Former-Member  Ours was the perfect 5 minute walk and was the only thing that got my son out of the house during his puberty. 

My journalling and diaries havent been totally methodical.  I kept track of things when I had spare time.

@Former-Member Sorry things are tough for you. Do you still have another week with kiddliwinks at home?

Awww, that is so sweet @Polly48, i don't know what i did, but anything that helps others is fine by me 🙂 yes, i get annoyed at auto-type too, i don't think their is much you can do, i have tried mytself but it seems to turn it's self back on 😞

I am glad you like the music, i did not think others would like it, i have had a lot of negative feedback, but it is the only music that helps me calm down, if it helps you that makes me happy.

Yes, i have major trouble with mood swings, they seem to be getting worse lately, probably because i am under so much stress. maybe when you find you have down turns you could spend some time doing something, like a hobby? somehting to keep you occupied until it passes, that way you are not taking it out on hubby?

He sounds like a wonderful man, you are lucky to have him, he sounds like he loves you very much 🙂

I hope you managed some sleep, i was up till two, having panic attacks 😞

Take care

Jacques

Hi Jaques didn't get much sleep but took some headache tabs and got up to work in Garden with my wonderful hubby. He wanted to poison grass in paddocks where I want to plant three Australian natives. Golden candles Bottle brush, fragrant Tea tree , and can't remember what other one is called. He also has to dig holes for Lemon, Navel Orange, and Lime trees unless I buy some big pots so I can take them with me when we eventually shift and downsize to an older property we own by the North Arm of Lake. I would like to do it now but I've promised Peter I will wait for 10 years so he can keep enjoying this big property and his precious Shed. He takes refuge there especially when I have a meltdown. He Is a mechanic retired and loves his shed. Had a great morning went to Gym for class with Living Longer Living Stronger. Tired now have crashed in my rocker and hit forums again Cheers all my friends. Have to give my tired eyes a rest now and get some lunch for us.

Wow!  I remember when this thread started and I just wandered back in to see how everyone is and discovered 231 pages of chat!  That's a lot of people missing their zzzzzzzzzzzzs!  But I can see that you've taken lots of lovely detours around this subject and many others.  It's great reading.

I do feel like a bit of fraud being in this thread I'm doing pretty well these days after years of problematic sleep.  But it's one of those things that needs maintenance:  a nightly routine, a sound machine and my own doona so I'm not playing tug of war with my infuriatingly soundly-asleep partner.  I'm not 100% there but it's  better.

Despite not being sleep deprived at present, it's good to catch up with the night shift crew
