Share a cuppa?

Re: Share a cuppa?

Re-framing what you've just said (if you would so kindly allow me), "How good is it to be able to fall asleep at night knowing I've accomplished a lot - to the point of exhaustion?" @ArraDreaming 

Re: Share a cuppa?

Yes you are right @tyme 

but I am soo tired 

I feel like it hits 3pm these days and I feel paralysed (for lack of better word don’t mean to offend) to do anything but lay down 

I have things I need to be doing but My body just feels so heavy 

Re: Share a cuppa?

If you said to me I’ll pay you $100 to get up my brain would say yes my body would stop me I wish I could explain it ask me again at 10pm though and i will have energy

Re: Share a cuppa?

We are meant to be going Christmas like looking tobight and I don’t know if I will make it

Re: Share a cuppa?

Can you have a quick re-energising catnap? @ArraDreaming 

 

Sometimes a quick short nap does the trick. Your body has been in overdrive for many days. It is understandable if you feel like you've been 'hit by a bus' - so to say. 

 

It's hailing and pouring on my side now. Is it raining for you? Will the Christmas dinner be indoors or out?

Re: Share a cuppa?

Nah I have to go help with dinner and get these little demons fed, team effort, one kid each and if I don’t hurry up they’ll find me in bed anyway so I know I have to get up i just oh really feel like my body is giving up on me, been at work so haven’t seen the family much today so I’m going to go and hope I have the strength to get me through the next couple hours until I get more energy @tyme tyme 

Re: Share a cuppa?

It’ll be outdoors if it’s not raining! @tyme weather looking good for Sunday

Re: Share a cuppa?

So you're running on adrenaline then @ArraDreaming - I'm sure you will feel it even more tonight. Please take care. 

 

What you are doing now, cleaning and feeding your boys, is the sacrifice many parents make for their children. Despite how tired, cranky, unwell parents are, they always put their kids before themselves. 

 

I'm not sure I can do that when I think about it - hence maybe that's why I don't have kids.

 

I take my hat off to all parents out there!

Not sure if you wanted a iced choc? @Meowmy  

 

It's been hot one my side. However, if you prefer hot choc with marshmallows, I can whip one of those ones up too!

 

How was your day?
