Ah there you are! I am not surprised, drugs not helping?

Sorry to hear Candy, I was going to ask what is the time up there. Nice day here down under slight breeze in the trees, mowers going hell for leather as we have had a lot of rain lately so gardens are overgrown. I am fasting till dinner time. Just toodling around here doing odd jobs. Just made some chia desserts with full coconut cream yum. Licked the spoon ...naughty naughty

Hope you get a doze in

[Debs]

MM, what is in those then gillymary?

Its six twenty A.M. Here ..yes going to try for a snooooooze!
A lick of the spoon isnt going to do too much harm@gillymary..
Those desserts sound divine x

Yes @CandiceMarie chia desserts have been the go in my kitchen for a fortnight now. Not so sure if they are sinful so I stick to them on a feed day. Nice way to end the evening meal. Think I will check out if recipe already exists on forum and google some details.

I have slept badly since the dark ages (= the years when I worked myself towards an early death) but every now and then I managed to get a good one. Not so last night, woke up around 1am with Arwen almost on top of me - all her 28kg...Normally she get to sleep with John, Fiona on a upstairs couch and little Diego with us. But for som unfathomable reason The DH let her sleep with us. And Arwen being Arwen, she take the opportunity in full and take up as much place as she can and - she is almost impossible to move, just lie there like a brick. A happy one that is.
But poor me, my schiatis (how do you spell that??? flared up badly when they box me in and I can't move me bad leg. Monumental pain= hard time to sleep.

Was on the verge to take a nap around 11am, but then I needed to get up to get a blanket and when I was already up I could as well don my gardening clothes and go out to rake some leaves and cut back last years perennials in the front border. Sorry excuse of a border that is these days Right now I feel like the brain waves are crossed...

Oh poor @Wolfie..sciatica..i get it too sometimes,its horrid,as is insomnia gahhhhh! X

Awake after two hrs and ten mins sleep! Its not enough!
Was dreaming someone upstairs was shouting We've got no butter! And storming from room to room And i was shouting back,we've got no bread either! ( see? Even when sleeping,obsessed with food)
Woke up and indeed,we have neither bread nor butter but wd dearly love tea and toast now..Starvin Marvin..
