Also awake and contemplating going downstairs for a bowl of cereal. Have to be up in 3 hours and so want to be asleep!

TheBouquets · 10/10/2019 03:26

I hope I don't start eating. I have had enough rubbish for one day.
I am listening to torrential rain with gusts of wind

WhatAMum01 · 10/10/2019 03:27

Awake. Nasty bout of tonsillitis and just getting over the worst but it's leaving a horrible taste in my mouth and a bit of a tickle that makes me cough. Trying to sleep upright and needing to sip water every ten minutes isn't allowing me to drop off.

What cereal surfingapple?
And I'm jealous of your shortbread whatamum. It's my fave but I think all those crumbs would aggravate my throat right now.

WhatAMum01 · 10/10/2019 03:28

Torrential rain here too,quite like the rain

@WhatAMum01 I like listening to the rain and the wind too.

WhatAMum01 · 10/10/2019 03:33

@TheBouquets especially lying in bed when you re all cosy

Ratbagcatbag · 10/10/2019 03:33

I'd like the sound of rain. My current sound system is my six year old talking in her sleep next to me and my cat snoring very loudly. 😂.

Are you nibbling the shortbread whatamum? Please lie and say you're eating something very very boring instead so o don't feel too jealous

sashh · 10/10/2019 03:38

Morning all, the sashh cafe is open for coffee,bacon butties and tea.

JoObrien7 · 10/10/2019 03:39

I can't because I have a cold and my nose is blocked so I am now drinking hot tea and blowing my nose ... boo hoo! I haven't had a cold for years - I blame the woman in Tesco's coughing and sneezing behind me in the queue.

WhatAMum01 · 10/10/2019 03:39

@ratbag not being a pet person wasn't aware cats snore,how intriguing !yes I'm afraid it's the shortbread, dont envy me it's so calorific it should come with a health warning.still no stopping me

OP posts:
WhatAMum01 · 10/10/2019 03:41

@sashh bacon butty with no fat please ,extra crispy.tea no sugar, I've had a huge chunk of shortbread that's rotting my teeth but warming my belly

JoObrien7 · 10/10/2019 03:41

@WhatAMum01

Yes cats snore, sneeze, fart and sigh. Mine taps me with his paw if he wants feeding he is a rag doll and very affectionate and annoying!

WhatAMum01 · 10/10/2019 03:43

@Jo dont even want to dare ask if a cat fart stinks!

When I first got my dopey cat (who's got three legs!!) last year from cats protection, the first night I had him I thought someone had broken in.
It's just me and my daughter in the house and I could hear this heavy breathing/snoring. Discovered it was him after walking around the house very tentatively.

Ratbagcatbag · 10/10/2019 03:46

Practising his comfy positions and snoring!

Cant sleep....anyone else??
meepmoop · 10/10/2019 03:56

I'm awake, think I might be in labour but not quite sure.
I'm 41weeks and have been cramping for a couple weeks now so not sure if this is the real deal or not

Ratbagcatbag · 10/10/2019 03:59

Oooooh meepmoop exciting. :)
Do you know what you're having?

meepmoop · 10/10/2019 04:06

Yeah a little girl Smile
I've got a 2year old boy as well.

Ratbagcatbag · 10/10/2019 04:09

Awwww congratulations. :) I hope it all goes really well for you.

Millie2013 · 10/10/2019 04:54

How exciting, Meep!

I’m awake with a swollen throat and temperature. Need to drag myself through work today, then I’m allowed to flop! Tempted to go downstairs for rabbit cuddles and tea, but I don’t want to wake up the whole house....
