Can't believe it's Monday morning already, where has the weekend gone?!

It's cold and dark, not fancying going out there.
Anyone else?

Urgh I agree. It's frosty outside, pitch black and we're due more rain today. I want to hide under the duvet and hibernate until spring instead of going to work.

Yep! Loads of us in the same boat... Summoning it he energy and trying to be positive ❤️🙏

Between dh and the dog ice had 3 hours and 37 minutes sleep according to my watch. No wonder I feel exhausted and was considering calling in sick
.

I'm not sick I'm just tired.

Hibernating until spring sounds perfect right now!

DC7 who is usually a champion sleeper came into our bedroom last night at 11.30 and said despairingly - "I can't get to sleep! I've tried for hours" so it's going to be a long day for all concerned 😟

Hope you all find your mojo and manage to get through the day OK.

I need to emulate my son. He texted he woke at 4am, couldn't get back to sleep so decided to get on the bus at 6am to get a good session at the gym before work! Got his dad's genes there - he was always at the gym at 6am! Meanwhile I'm diving deeper under the covers (though have to get up in exactly one minute).

Me too. I have to get up now, I'm going to be late for work/dc late for school if I don't get up. I tried to get up at 6am & 7am. I was just too tired after a broken night's sleep. No idea how I'm going to get through the day tbh

Grrr! I just got comfy in bed when the 4.30 alarm went off! Hardly a surprise though as when I set the alarm it told me how many hours I had left! Not many as I went to bed after 12 but if I do so before then I always have to get up at midnight, then 2 and 3 in the morning!

Yeah that weekend flew past. Was super productive on Saturday, and yesterday, well... least said about that the better! 😂took me ages to get to sleep last night and the dog woke me at 0430 needing the garden... so I ended up staying up after that as I get up at half five normally anyway. Thankfully I work from home so at least I've been able to have a more leisurely start (self-employed, can set my own hours)

Currently working from bed. This is the dream Grin

This will be me next week, currently in Lanzarote and the weather is gorgeous. Dd is home and text me saying it was -1 last night. I'm dreading go home to the cold and work/school life 😭

The kids went back to school this morning, in the dark and the freezing cold. They were so tired and sad about it, it was awful. And I felt terrible that I was going to WFH on the couch in my snuggly jammies and a blanket. I'll have to make them a lovely dinner when they get home to make up for it.
