Just the usual flashbacks and nightmares. I was awake from 5am with nightmares and didn't want to sleep again.
I’m guessing with the late night posts still not wanting to sleep?
How are you doing, lovely?
I'm sorry you were struggling with flashbacks and waking from a nightmare can really unsettle you... How are things today? How did you sleep last night?
I had a late night run to pick my son up from work last night. Took me a while to settle and then I was up at 6 to get Io up and dropped off to work.
I came back and got into bed. I'm not long awake, I got another couple of hours. I'm lying in bed still so need a kick to get up and moving.
Need to take my son to work after lunch and I have a swim booked for 2pm.
The ironing pile is through the roof and the kitchen is disgusting. I guess the ironing can wait another day till tomorrow.
The flashbacks and nightmares have become just a way of life for me. Some days I cope with them better than others depending on how many and which particular one is plaguing me.
I'm glad you're making the choice to leave the ironing for today and you are listening to your body.
Have you found anything to help with the flashbacks?
I loathe ironing so don’t iron for Si or Jess and do mine as I go. So I’d say you can always leave the ironing :)

Unfortunately no, but we are still working on it in psychology.
I hate ironing too. Actually I hate getting started, once I'm started it's not too bad. I was spoilt during lockdown when Io was at home all day as she did most of it.
My lovely addled brain struck again today.
I drove the 4 miles to the local village to get some milk to find I had forgotten my purse. I had to drive home, turn and go back again. Anyway milk purchased and breakfast eaten.
Swimming may well be the highlight today(rofl)
I’ve forgotten what it’s like to just walk out the house without having to go back cos I forgot something.
