Finally a nights sleep

Finally I feel as though I got a reasonable nights sleep last night. My body I think has finally said enough. You must rest. For the first time in 10 weeks I have slept more than 2 hours. I feel lighter somehow. I hope this may continue so that whilst emotionally exhausted I won’t feel physically exhausted as well. It means after a nights rest my knees and body don’t hurt as much nor do I have the nagging headache. Does this mean I am gradually starting to adapt to the new reality? Or is it just a temporary respite. Still teary reading some of your posts that so mirror my own grief and experience. Love to you all. Sandra

@Pudding glad you have had a better night. I think if you don’t feel so bad physically you can cope a little better emotionally.

I’m so pleased Sandra. Sleeping makes such a difference to our bodies and minds. I also slept much better last night. If I go to bed later, it’s better for me.
I hope you have a good day but I know you don’t like Sundays. Sending hugs x

I have to go to bed the same time every night. Norman used to tease me about it. Something else to miss. Just put in an online supermarket order for Thursday but I expect I will keep adding to it until Wednesday. Ordered lots of healthy things like salad and fruit but had to put in biscuits for my brother’s visit. Amazing how much better my knees feel after almost a nights sleep. Glad you had a good night too. Xx

It sounds to me as though you are sorting out your meals very well now with your online grocery orders, I find them very useful. To be honest, salads have been my saviour but I am getting better now at cooking my meals since our posts with @Walan a few weeks ago. I am going to my brother’s for lunch, we take it in turns to cook on Sundays. He was a chef so always a delicious lunch. It’s pouring with rain here so hoping it eases off before I go. xx

Not raining here at present. Watching 2 pigeons thinking about nesting in a small maple outside my window. Won’t work. Tree is too small and close to the ground but several of them try. Enjoy your lunch. Trying to intersperse ready meals with healthier options.

How I hate Sundays. I seem to cry more on Sundays than any other day.

It was just a one off. Didn’t sleep well last night and felt awful all day.bat least had a relatively healthy meal of tortellini and tomato sauce. Have the rest of the pack tomorrow.
