Hannah and Tim\u2026<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I had another mini-meltdown recently. On that subject? Least said, soonest mended, methinks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2026 made us all delicious pizzas.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Hannah had offered that we visit them, for Friday evening, which chez Gimeno-Palmer means (home-made) pizza night. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019d have been there like a shot anyway – other commitments allowing – but under the circs (me needing recuperative relaxation and time out), it was a no-brainer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And in the end we stayed over two nights, instead of just the one. I only hope we didn\u2019t impose too much, or overstay our welcome? It didn\u2019t feel that way. So I\u2019m trusting all is tickety-boo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tim\u2019s living with \u2018the girls\u2018 now. And that\u2019s more than fine with us. It obviously changes the chemistry, compared to when we used to visit, and it was just Teresa, me, Hannah, Ali and Sofi. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had to, or rather, chose<\/em> to keep off the sauce, whilst all the other adults imbibed. That puts an interesting spin on things. Sobriety illuminates intoxication in a fairly unforgiving. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sleeping, or not, remains a hot potato. I\u2019d been able to get some Zopiclone prescribed, via \u2018NHS\u2019 111. And that had worked a treat Thursday night. so I took one Friday evening, and once again slept like a log. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My Saturday shift took me back to home turf. I dropped in on Chester, fed and cuddled the wee rascal, and picked up some Valerian tablets. I took one of these Saturday night. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That caused a predicament, re the Zopiclone. I\u2019m now in a quandary\u2026 do I take the \u2018known to work\u2019 Zop, or chance the possibly just \u2018old wives tales\u2019 Valerian? I\u2019m lead to believe the two shouldn\u2019t be taken together. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whilst at Hannah\u2019s news came through the family WhatsApp grapevine that dad was freaking out again. I communicated a bit with him, Sam and Claire. Not sure if that was wise or not? It certainly ramps up the stress levels. But we are <\/em>family!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
