@ArraDreaming  how are you going this afternoon my friend 

Kids love water and it wears them out big time 

and tking a walk with the little ones might help too 

did you say ADHD earlier ???

[ArraDreaming]

I have lived with adhd my whole life but only diagnosed in my mid/late teens @Shaz51 unmedicated and have been so for pretty much ever 

yeah kids exhausted took them to the playground I’ve got one who’s konked out on the couch at 5pm which is not going to help our newly sleeping -through-the night thing, both worn out. 

[Shaz51]

yep that is the trouble my @ArraDreaming 

I have 2 stepsons with ADHD 

and I looked after a child who had had ADHD when I did childcare xxx

how did you go with the doctor --- asking for any cancelation , that you can have and tell them how bad it is xx

[ArraDreaming]

Yeah I called them and they got me an appointment but it’s not going to work so I’m just waiting for my partner to see what’s happening with her work next week as she might able to be here while I go so I booked it and will cancel if we can’t make it work

[ArraDreaming]

Otherwise my options are to hang out until Wednesday and hope my body gets so tired I just end up forcing it to sleep

[Shaz51]

hope you can get some sleep my friend @ArraDreaming , I really do xx

I get up 4 times a night because of my kidney disease and then I am wide awake after the 3rd time 

[ArraDreaming]

Yea I hope so too @Shaz51 thanks

[Shaz51]
