Night Shift

Hi plasmo had another sleepless night, headache bothering me, eyes tired from lack of sleep, was hungry got up and made a toasted muffin and Peter made me a Luke warm milk and far too sweet honey drink after I asked for hot half milk half water drink. Super sweet one will worsen headachewhich will mean taking more medication. Told him he doesn't listen to what Iask for and how long I told him to mike it and we had an outburst from me because he didn't apologise for giving me a super sweet almost cold drink both which He ought to know after 47 &1/2 years of marriage, that I hate. He stormed off out of bedroom in sulky huff and I turned to Sane forums and had my 3 Rd headache tablet for night. Also started off with melatonin tablet at 10 pm. Then sleeping tablet at 1 o'clock and still I had very little sleep.Have to go to Bairnsdale for specialist appointment follow up for colonoscopy today 12 o'clock leave home about ten so we can go shopping at Aldi as well. Then lunch and quick trip back to Lakes for Physio appointment only $15 dollars with concession at 3:30. It will be worth it to check everything is Ok and maybe get a massage and follow up exercises to help it heal faster still very painful. Pap smear was cancelled yesterday and new appointment made for later in month. Feel calmer now.will check out exercise and goal setting posts and some of the other threads.

Hi @Former-Member

You can't do everything at once - oh man - neither can I

I start tidying my affairs at a different place each day and do a bit here and a bit there and somehow keep ahead

But I could not do all that stuff you are being ordered to do - I would be a total wreck - totally understand

If I had someone telling me "I could do this - I could do that" I think I might go on strike - there's lots of things I can't do - I think I'm getting old - or something

But I hear you - I get it - somethings are too much of a commitment - just getting through the day is hard enough

My best thoughts

Decadian

I did not have a good night last night

I felt uneasy and irritable for some reason - not normal for me - but this time of year has bad memories in it and I would rather not think about them

If I had to have a disturbed night it was a lovely starry night - I went outside at some time to look at the stars and planets - and right overhead I could see Mars, Saturn and Antares closed together - fantastic

That is not everyone's idea to get up and go outside to see - I knew those heavenly bodies are getting closer together in the night sky - but I was tired off my face this morning - it took time to wake up and then get up -

So good morning Jaques, Appleblossom, LisaJane, Shaz, Peppypatty, Butterfly and a few others - I will get to know everyone's name in time

It's a great day in Melbourne - really warm - ah - half way through autumn and I am wearing shorts

I just read your message and I know exactly how you feel about the husband thing.

Can we talk about it in about a week when your headaches may be more settled and I'm not in chaotic mode ?

It feels like you have a lot on your plate

Apeak soon, PP

Hi everyone

hugs @PeppiPatty i hope that things settle foryou soon... would be nice if life got a chance to be 'boring' for a bit with no bumps/dramas to recoup.

Hi @Decadian i havent been sleeping well and my concentration is really bad so im not really keeping up with the posts very well... Your last post about the stars though reminded me how nice the night sky is. I used to live in central aus and would go out swagging off of the oodnadatta track soemtimes and the night sky out there was just like staring into another world. I wish i could go up there right now lol! Not sure my kids are up for the 20 hour ish drive though lol - one day though i want to take them throughout Australia.
