This is why lol 😂😂😂 I nodded off in my chair with the mug in my hand and it was full. At some point during my nap I let go of it which sent a river of coffee cascading into my lap. Nothing to worry about though, it was only lukewarm. I must of been asleep quite a while. Still it was a bit awkward when my daughter came downstairs and seen her mum stood in just her knickers in the middle of the living room
😂😂
I haven't explained that I suffer from MS. Heavy fatigue is my main symptom. It's quite common to find me dozing in a chair. Sometimes my eyes just start drooping and I don't even realize. Spilling drinks on myself while I sleep has become one of my many rubbish talents 😂
Anyway thought I tell you this embarrassing moment in hope it can bring you a laugh. Please do share if this has ever happened to you before.
Enjoy your evening xx

Oh no! Thank you for sharing your mishap. I am glad that you weren't hurt. I suffer from dreadful fatigue every day, (from a brain injury,) so I can sympathize with that.I did something kinda similar many years ago. I was a teenager. I was lying on my bed on a very hot summer's day, listening to Radio Luxembourg on my transistor radio. I had a tall glass of orange juice with ice cubes in it. As I was lying down, I was holding the glass balanced on my sternum. It was still almost full when I miscalculated and the glass tipped over towards my head! All the ice cubes and the orange juice shot over my shoulders and collected at the back of my neck! It definitely cooled me down, but in a really shocking way!
Ooooo, shocking lol. I tried drinking a cold glass of water while laying down in bed once. Poured half of it in my face lol. Learnt my lesson on that one 🤣
I'm glad all was well in the end and you didn't scald yourself Heather.May I say, though, what a beautiful dress you were wearing. What material is it and will the stain come out?
I used to have that problem more before I went on Myclophemate. My best / worst was when I painted my nails, put the bottle down on the table. An hour later I woke up with my fingers stuck together with purple nail polish!! When I have a drink now I try to put the cup down. Husband sometimes reminds me which is helpful. Take care
Trouble is for me I have very weak arms and terrible hand eye coordination due to MS. I usually end up resting the mug on my chest or tummy so I don't have to keep picking it up. I do own a non spill mug, but don't use it as much as I should because it makes me feel old lol.
Many many times especially when have a bad chest infection or an excasabation. So difficult trying to dry/change clothing/bedding when already exhausted. Take care Mags.
I banned all food/drink from the bedroom due to spillages. I totally relate to your frustration. Sometimes just changing the bed finishes me for the rest of the day.
i have done also ...feel so dumb my husband says when not drinking put it up on the side table i do but sometimes i fall asleep before i know that i am going to go to sleep that fast...ahahhahahahhah....feel stupid and making more laundry to do...hahahhahahhha
I'm like that to. Feel fine one second, next minute I've dozed off without even realizing. I got myself one of them non spill cups. But I'm stupid and never use it 🤣
