You know you're tired when...

The cheese goes on the pile of pots to be washed up, and the grater goes on the cheese shelf in the fridge

I spent a few minutes trying to get into my house with my car key. I was very confused.

You get that muscle twitching in a lower eyelid for three solid weeks with no break.
I even saw the GP as it was quite painful. I was told "You're tired." Gee thanks mate. And he had to Google it.
Wasn't till it finally started to ease that I realised that side of my face had been pretty numb the whole time.

You put milk in your cup and oj on your cerial. Then you realise what you've done, strain off the oj and then pour on the milk.
Fail.

After having DS2 I was getting really paranoid that every morning I was waking up with white spots all over my arms and kept moaning to DH that I was worried I was getting a disease or something.
After about ten days I cried to him that he had to take me Doctors to see what was wrong with me...
he then looked and pointed out that it was milk spots from when I tested the bottle temperature on my arm in the middle of the night...

TEN DAYS!!

The other night I was going up to bed carrying some stuff. I have had an awful chest infection and just haven’t been feeling well and have been more tired than usual.

I went to throw my phone and charger onto the bed and ended up throwing the open can of Diet Coke instead and soaked my new mattress, sheet, pillows and duvet. 🤦🏼‍♀️

What a fud! 😂

When you try to read the same paragraph six times, because you keep nodding off before the end. Eventually you give up.

FIL had ordered us a piece of furniture from Next, it stated "Mr X" on the signature delivery bit. I had a bit of a brain fart moment, and whilst I obviously could have signed my own name.. I instead opted to 'style it out' and forged his signature prefixed by 'Mr', delivery guy looked a bit 🤔 but went along with me.

When you fall asleep on the sofa after school drop off and wake in a panic calling for your dcs to get up because they are late for school

Going into a shop to pick up a monthly order, repeatedly assuring probably ALL staff that I had had a recurring order at this shop for over a decade and I just cannot believe they can't find my account and had they tried a different spelling...

...only to realise very slowly that I had never been inside this particular shop location in all my life as it was miles away from anywhere I regularly shop, AND that the shop wasn't even the same chain as the one where I really had my order!!

What's worse is that DH and I were both absolutely certain that this was our shop (surely I convinced him)! Still haven't the slightest how/why we ended up at that shop so far away to begin with!

You drop off singing the Baby Shark theme, (Do do do do do do do do), and when you wake up you're still singing it, (Do do do do do do do do), and you believe that you've been awake still singing it inbetween, (Do do do do do do do do), but actually you were dreaming the middle bit of the singing. Apologies to anyone who has now got that as an earworm.
