Ok, this isn't really my community, but y'all got good memes and you hit my all constantly.
I never understood the value of good sleep. I'd just get maybe 5-6 hours before my kids would jump into bed and wake me up and then my day starts.
Had a sleep study done and turns out I wasn't getting any deep sleep (in addition to apnea)
Like, no wonder I feel so foggy and forgetful. Wicked cranky and short-tempered. Barely recovered from sciatica flareup after 4 months.
I thought I was getting old (I'm only 41 but still...). I thought being tired was just part of having kids.
And sure that's a part of it, but only a small part.
Started going to bed earlier. Much earlier. Like 9 or 10 instead of 12 or 1. Phone off. Reading Kindle. About an hour in and I'm ready to pass out. Head and legs propped up (look up "zero gravity sleep position"...game changer). Solid night sleep.
Stopped smoking cannabis right before/in bed. You know cannabis can inhibit REM sleep? Easier to fall asleep, sure, but not nearly as restorative.
I feel sooooooo much better. I'm dreaming again!
Anyways, just wanted to share. Don't discount the importance of a good night sleep. Having an hour or two to yourself is great but it's not worth it. Not every night.
Having an hour or two to yourself is great but it’s not worth it.
What does that mean? Having 1-2h just for yourself without interacting with others?
Not necessarily not interacting with others just...time without other obligations. Time which is exclusively mine to do with what I want. Not working. Chores done (or at least the ones that need doing). Kids in bed. Finished for the day.
Whether that's alone or with a partner or with friends doesn't matter. What matters is, I'm in charge of the time, and anybody around me is on my wavelength.
I'm an introvert and a homebody, tho, so most of the time it's gaming, doom-scrolling, wiki-diving, or shit-posting. As long as it brings me joy (so trying less of the doom-scrolling...).
So really I've just shifted what I'm doing with that time, and where that time is. Now I'm reading in bed with my partner. She does the same. Not that I don't like sitting quietly with her (believe me, I love it), but sometimes I just want to sit quietly without her, or anyone or anything in particular...ya know?
I don’t wanna get up, but I’m hungry
🍕
This is why the food gods made the empanada panda
Fuck I just thought up a second gimmick for my dream restaurant
Eepy, and worky makes me a dull girl :3
Is there anything besides eepy and worky? and eaty? I forgot about eaty eaty is happy :3
I just boke out to my wife's school and now I have to wait 20 minutes until her class gets out. Minimum days, so I brought her a fancy sammich and i really want to eat it now.
Thats my secret, im always tired.

my lap is nice and comfy, and im very cuddleable :3
Welcome to femcel memes. A place where anybody can post memes that fit the vibe.
Warning: We have a tendency to post things that may at times come from a self-deprecating perspective or things that are funny coming from another queer person. This space will always be a safe place for transfems, non-binary people, people with a feminine gender expression (GNC or otherwise) or anybody else in the LGBT Community to come together and share about our experiences but we truly feel that laughing about the sometimes silly and embarrassing parts the queer experience can help bring us together. We never mean offense or harm in anything posted but rather they are satirical takes coming from queer people.
A note about 'Egging': Our community is mostly made up of transfem individuals, and as such most memes posted will be posted with the intention of having a transfem perspective. However, regardless of gender identity, all feminine presenting individuals are welcome here. Whether that means you're NB, GNC, transmasc, or any other identity, you are welcome here. It is not our intention or goal to invalidate these identities. If something makes you uncomfortable, please feel free to report the post and I will address your concerns on an individual level.
