Hello ?
Back by popular demand (well, two people have asked me to start a new thread)
If you are awake at goodness knows what time; or are Australian (hi Nanna8), this is a thread for chat, companionship and me boring on about ‘kettle cuisine’
See you later x

Thank you Molly!
Ah, the cold dog nose ?

Mollygo Thu 30-Jun-22 07:25:52

Yes, but I’m not recovering from an operation. The best thing is that having posted last night, I was awake till 2am then didn’t wake again till 7pm and cold dog nose.
Hope you’re improving and any painkillers you need, work.

Hello Molly!
Surprised to see this thread smile
I hope that you managed to get some sleep.
You do suffer, don’t you thanks

I think I’m in for a sleepless night, so though this was started back in April . . .

Mollygo Thu 28-Apr-22 07:46:57

Currently taking a zopiclone sleeping pill every night due to surgery but still wake time is anything and everything between 1 and 5 but at that time my eyes ? are tired and unfocused to write on my tiny phone but am often awake .
Drives me mad as I can’t habe a nap later in the day.. it’s always a long old night

BigBertha1 Thu 28-Apr-22 05:32:45

Hello all me again. Did get some sleep but have up and got a cup of tea. I used to be Teetime.

Nana3 Thu 28-Apr-22 05:30:07

Is anyone motivated to get up early? I think I like being in bed far too much.

MaggsMcG Thu 28-Apr-22 05:06:43

I've been awake for at least an hour and a half only just found this post. I too complete Wordle and Quordle at weird times of the "night" morning.

I’m fed up with poor sleep, maybe I should stop fighting it and get up and do something!
I imagine you’re counting the days FannyCornforth!

Congratulations on your last chemo, Lucca. Been there and am happy for you that it’s over.

mollygo what can help is the gentle sound of Chakra meditation music on low volume

I am awake by choice really but thinking of going to sleep now

Mollygo Thu 28-Apr-22 03:20:01

This am I’m awake-with Tom Paxton songs running through my head. That’s a blast from the past. Perhaps I should try Brahms Lullaby. Nerdle here I come.

Lucca flowers. I hope you get back to sleep.

1-5 is my likely time of sleeplessness. But I've been lucky recently. I don't like taking pills, makes me groggy next day. So I take sparingly. Now going to try magnesium spray and lavender on pillow.

Lucca Wed 27-Apr-22 04:20:56

This is my regular awake time 2 a.m to 5 ish unless I take sleeping pill which I am allowed but reluctant.

Last chemo today.

MissAdventure Wed 27-Apr-22 02:23:57

Awake here.
I fell asleep earlier and of course, am now doomed to staying wide awake until it's time to get up

It’s another wakeful night! Unfair, since I’ve done lots of exercise and stuff on my to-do list!

FannyCornforth Mon 25-Apr-22 15:17:56

Thank you Molly

I'm pretty thick when it comes to computers.
What does one have to do to join this Chat?

Mollygo Mon 25-Apr-22 15:05:44

Crossed posts FC, but hurray for the appointment! Make sure you stay well enough to use it.

FannyCornforth Mon 25-Apr-22 15:05:19

Thank you Molly, I only needed a phone appointment and he brought it forward

FannyCornforth Mon 25-Apr-22 15:04:31

Hello Molly
Yes, I do lots of ‘life admin’ in the early hours. And a lot of online shopping blush
I finally have a date for my hip replacement! It’s Friday 17th June. I’m so excited!

Mollygo Mon 25-Apr-22 15:04:30

Good luck with your appointment FC. Hope the hip replacement appointment is forthcoming.
