I'm knackered ,terrible night ,no sleep.Whwn you're in bed at night,mind whirring ,every scenario playing out in you're head ,well sleep just doesn't happen .I tossed and turned for an hour,then thought sod it and started to read my kindle,then attempted again to get my head down,then I needed the blooming toilet ,then I thought f**k it and decided to leave my husband snoring ,went downstairs and watched TV on low.Thw dog joined me on the sofa and the last thing I remember was the clock saying 2.15 am and I must of fallen asleep.Woke up at 5.30 ,aching all over with a stiff neck and the dog starring at me.I feel crap,I look shit...If dad's operation doesn't go ahead on Wednesday I'll be pissed off for him because he'll have to go through all the worry ect again and I'll be looking at more sleepless nights.The gp won't prescribe me some proper sleeping pills ,I've asked,why can't I just have a few tamazapam just to get me through .....
Hopefully I'll sleep tonight...
