My rant is that as we didn't have bins collected for over a fortnight during Xmas period. Not a problem in itself but it was attracting fruit flies.

So I got the bins out a few days before they were due to be collected, made sure kitchen was pristine etc.

Then the little sods started going for my orange juice, lemon, honey and hot water in the sitting room. I made a decoy cup for them. I've just accidentally knocked decoy cup over so I'll have to clean up a fruit flies graveyard and sticky liquid tomorrow, too tired to do it right now!

Hope everyone who’s feeling poorly is better soon! I’m up because I’m 26 weeks pregnant and since 19 weeks I haven’t been able to sleep a full night! I don’t remember having this with DS but I’m knackered!

I'm back at work tomorrow after 2 weeks off so typical I can't sleep.

My period also came today and I genuinely thought I might have been pregnant. Obviously fucking not it seems.

DH is also snoring so loudly it woke DS up then he got pissed off at me for waking him up to tell him to shift downstairs.

I'm so exhausted, have been all week but just can't seem to rest. Every moment I've had some downtime I've ended up having to do something or fix something. I just want to sleep for as long as my body lets me because the ONLY time it wants to sleep is around 5am which is about an hour before my alarm goes off

@JanglingJack I honestly don't know much about fruit flies (except they're a nuisance!) and apparently a good way to kill them involves apple cider vinegar. None around at present 🤞

Having difficulty dropping off so I'm going to put on an episode of a TV show.

They hate cinnamon too!
