Mum had her dinner at 5pm of chicken schnitzel with coleslaw, watched half the news and then fell asleep on the couch like a real nana.
When she was a little girl, she would sometimes stay with her nana who lived round the corner from her house, to make sure she didn't nod off on a Saturday night. Her nana was sweet and would let her sleep in in the morning and let her have chocolate cereal in the morning. Her nana would have only been in her fifties when this happened, not old at all. So mum doesn't feel too bad at her own snooze behavior as it runs in the family. Also she did night shifts this week and it takes her body a lot longer to recover now.

Your mum has good memories. And she deserves a snooze when she can get it.
ReplyDeleteBest thing is you watching over her. Bet you do not want chocolate cereal, Poppy.
Doctors now say, that a short snooze is a
ReplyDeletegood thing for the over 50's in the afternoon..
I wish l could, the only way l can sleep is in
bed..or laying flat, even on a floor, l could
sleep on..though long time since l've done that!
What makes things worse, is that l'm a very light
sleeper..wake up at the slightest thing..!
