I’m so sorry… very difficult to process these feelings whilst juggling everything else, and supporting other people’s feelings too.
I know it’s hard… but try to give yourself a small treat or kindness each day if you can… whatever gets you through… For me it’s sitting by the sea with a coffee… I hope there’s something you can find the time to give yourself. But you know that I know what a struggle that can be in our similar circumstances. 🤷🏻♀️
On the sleep front, mine’s been weird lately which I’m blaming on the darker nights throwing me off. I have always suffered from SAD but it seems to be getting worse as I get older! Some days I’m sleeping 4 or 5 hours which is nothing like enough, followed by 10 or 11 hours or sometimes I end up napping. What I hate the most is if I drop off late afternoon and wake up in the dark!
Sending warm wishes…

@TalktoBeverley@mas.to The nights drawing in does seem to be having an impact in our house too. Less opportunity already for evening walks, which are my opportunity to relax but also have a chat with the kids. We’ve all been getting up earlier for high school as well, which is another reason for the tired grouchiness. I keep hoping we’ll find our groove with it all, but we’re not there yet! On the treat front - it’s a podcast once the kids are finally asleep…but tonight I’m too tired 😴
