Rising to the top of the ocean - and staying afloat!

Just shows .... you must always check prices everywhere before buying!

I've been waiting for a 10% off P@H voucher to arrive (join their new VIP club) - really don't get that much there now but need wet food for the dog & was going to stick a bit of wet cat food in to get the order to £29 (free delivery).

Thought I'd have a quick look at the cost of Fel*iway refills while there ..... as it looks like I will be getting more of these so I can have one downstairs & one upstairs;) - huge :T to Beanielou once again :A

Yup, they really are identical products :eek: and very nearly 100% price difference!

OMG I am soooooooo tired ..... really, really trying to stay up until at least 9 or I'll just be up in the middle of the night (again!) *sigh*

Will probably start posting rubbish ..... well even more than normal!:rotfl:

I think I'm going to go to bed once masterchef has finished....

I think I should join you in the 'early to bed' stakes, I'm pooooped this evening. But I want to get through the DDD thread that you meantioned the other day!

rising_from_the_ashes

Well, I ended up heading off to bed with the intention of reading for a bit .... and must've fallen asleep as soon as I lay down

Unfortunately, that meant I was wide awake at 1:15 am:mad: - I so envy people who can go to bed & sleep for 8 + hours:)

Finally gave in and got up around 5ish but it's absolutely f r e e e e e e z z z i n g outside (and in here too) - have given in and put the heating on to take the chill off...... brrrrrrr

Morning Rising,

My DH has the same problem, he falls alseep on the couch and goes to bed then is wide awake in the early hours.

Hope that you're feeling a bit better today and that the treatment works for you.

rising_from_the_ashes

My sympathies to your DH Purple it can be incredibly frustrating!:(

I'm actually feeling OK this morning:) - tired (to be expected) but OK Fingers crossed the treatment & new drug regime works ..... & thanks!

Rising, have you always had really broken sleep or is this because of your treatment?

Ohhhh I've been a terrible sleeper for years - it's usually my joints / back that wake me as they get sore if I lie too long.

I guess a lot of it is now habit - I've not slept more than 4 (max of 5) hours solidly for years now but I would usually manage to stay up a bit later so it's not quite as bad & would normally go back to sleep for another couple of hours which I'm struggling with just now.

The steriods do affect your sleep so they're probably having an effect too! Hopefully once I wean them down, that'll help (and with the night sweats too as they're not nice).

At least just now, I can go & have a nap (or two;)) during the day but obviously can't do this once I'm back at work so need to get it sorted by then!

I won't tell you then that I went to sleep about 11PM, and didn't wake up til my alarm went off at 6:30AM

In my defence, I normally wake up a lot through the night, so must have been really tired....
