    Re: August Army Manoevres

    lurve Mac and Cheese -- haven't made it in yonks - must do soon!

    I THINK that the sleep requirement for an individual is often based on what a normal nights sleep was to us when we were really quite young - adult but young - teenage maybe - personally as a teenager (obviously not when on the razz at weekends!!) I used to read anything up to 2am or 3am - and then get up for school - so I think my 'norm' has always been maybe 6 hours - I haven't slept a night through from night till morning since I had children - think the disruptive sleep having babies crying etc. just never fixed itself - I try not to worry about it - but if you are - maybe speak to a doc -- there are lots of sleep aid programmes online - they say they work??

        Just running out the door to have a look at this car...........I had to get dressed nicely .........my usual look of looking like I've just climbed out of a skip.

        Now where did I leave me teeth.

          Good morning folks:happy2:

          Aching this morn and could as easy lay on me arse and do SFA but the feckin sunlight is showing up my dodgy paint job from yesterday so looks like ain't gonna get away with one coat

          Molls have a great day in work- love days when the bosses aren't about

          Ah D'Arsey laughing at thought of ya -sound so happy about cheese sauce! The simple pleasures. Next time you should def make your own. Detest ready meals here. Don't like not knowing what's in it and for some reason prob psychological they never taste right or even like real food!

          When you get up in morn do ya feel rested? Or do ya feel shite?!
          Wish I had answers for ya but me own sleep pattern is badly skewed and never, ever wake feeling rested and rip-roaring to go for day! Would've thought with your regular exercise, good diet, meditation etc... Yours should be good.....dunno sorry!

          Oh Bridget dear, so I'm not the only one?! Suppose it could be worse we could be addicted to something much worse for our health!!

          Good luck for car Jacks x

          Mary fair dues to your parents- they're just right to celebrate. Love to see older couples together after many moons still enjoying each other. Nearly like they're one person if that makes sense?

          Ok away to pretend I've got some energy, am not sore and that no paint job is gonna break me!

          Daddy happily watching the Pope arrive! Woo hoo!

            Re: August Army Manoevres

            Just back from a longish run--I got soaked to the skin so have just had a lovely relax in a hot bath.
            We had a lovely afternoon yesterday we went out for a gorgeous Lebanese meal and then to see "The ragged trousered Philanthropist" at a very left wing theatre. It was great to do something normal and think about other stuff besides Cancer and Alcohol.
            It is our 50th wedding anniversary next week our plan is to take all of our family to the Lake District and go hiking and canoeing. It is all booked and paid for so fingers crossed it is still going to go ahead.
            Just about to read back!

Played drums for us down in orchestra hall an all then sent us on a drum kit afterwards!!! Yeah I was in bed with the great Keith Moon:welldone::welldone:

              Good grief woman!!! I hope you didn't get contact stoned from the event!

                    Ditto here. Well, not so much dysfunctional but my brother and his wife are the WORST communicators, it is beyond frustrating. E.g. said to them a month a go (having not been able to see my niece this summer) that i was thinking of coming down in Oct. They then said, oh but we might come up. I said, well let me know ASAP if you are/are not because if i am coming down i need to let the company i direct know NOW so we can rearrange rehearsals...

                    heard nothing...
                    Still nothing...
                    Nope nothing...

                    text to see what the gig was. SIL replies to say depends on her work, she'll find out the following week (this is WEEKS ago now).

                    Heard nothing
                    Still nothing...
                    Nope...
                    Nothing.

                    THEN my brother texts to ask if i'm still on hols on the 26th oct as there's a marathon he and I cld do. I reply to say, naw, back at school... and anyway thought you were coming up? He says, naw, thought you were coming down?

                    Like, FFS :rant: :rant: :rant:

                    All i want to see is my niece...

                      But back to us :haha:

                      How's everyone's day been?

                      I went for a run... ended up being a lot longer than anticipated as changed route half way through and it ended up being nearly 3 miles longer. Don't mind. Just banjaxed now. Been on my back staring at the internet/watching tv for the last uhh... 8 hours :haha:

                                We rarely go out so most dates are ingrained in my brain.
                                Saying that we're meeting Jenny & the BF in Durham and taking my Auntie out for lunch tomorrow.
