DawnM Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 about an hour or two before bed. This is the 2nd time this week I have read an email that I shouldn't have read right before be and it has kept me up. Three nights ago it was something about my job. It wasn't bad, but there was an issue with something and I couldn't stop thinking about it. Tonight it is news that my mom isn't doing well. I need to read these in the MORNING!

Spryte Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 I'm sorry about your mom, too. Can you take some melatonin or something to help you sleep? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anacharsis Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 If you use Firefox, LeechBlock might be helpful. You can set it to ban access to certain websites between certain hours. (It's designed to help people who are easily distracted focus.) If you use Chrome, there are similar extensions, although I am not familiar with them. ​ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktgrok Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 There are a few different apps that let you block certain sites on a schedule you set. I want to say anti-social is one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DawnM Posted August 5, 2016 Author Share Posted August 5, 2016 (((hugs))) They emailed you about your mom and did not call? It was my dad. He started the email by apologizing that it was an email but that phone calls would be overheard and not private and he didn't want my mom to hear. He actually has some hearing loss and tends to shout these days. My mom's hearing is actually very sharp. It isn't a good combination! HAHA! Anyway, he is a physician, and not overly dramatic or emotional, so I do accept what he is saying as medically accurate and not just fear or unnecessary worry. Neither of them is getting out much. My dad really shouldn't drive anymore but he drives to the library, the grocery store, and church. They are in their 80s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
