Come tell me!

insomnia kicking in. But also had a job interview today and got the job! Which is far less stressful that my current job. But worried about telling my current work friends etc

Im sat up in bed watching the good wife. Playing prison tycoon on my iPad.. riveting stuff

I'm downstairs on mumsnet. I love this time of night - everyone is fast asleep, the telly is off and all is quiet. I might go up to bed soon it just depends on if I feel tired enough, I haven't yawned yet so I guess I'll be up a little while longer. There is no point in going to bed if I'm not tired - I'll just end up staying awake getting grumpier and grumpier listening to DH snoring. He has to get up for work at 6am so I'll let him snore in peace for a bit longer.

Weirdly I miss my DH’a snoring! He’s been away for 3 weeks so far. And 5 weeks to go :)

It’s now 2.08. I have graduated to a chair. Been told at least another two hours…
Super

I've started watching the X Files (I'd never seen it) but now I've freaked myself out a bit.

@EdnaMole I hope he's seen and sorted asap, I was in A&E for 8 hours Monday and it's never fun is it?

@burntoutnursethe “thunderstorm” on Alexa is a great substitute for snoring 😃

AleaEim · 28/03/2025 04:09

I’m feeding my 3 month old.

Crawling into bed, finally. It’s Mother’s Day weekend and I’m a florist so I guess I’ll get some proper sleep on Sunday night..for now it’s caffeine, real housewives of bh, a lot of flower mess and sore hands.

TheChippendenSpook · 28/03/2025 04:18

I'm getting ready for work 😩

FannyBawz · 28/03/2025 04:31

I’m worrying about war 🙄

I’m watching my lambing ewes on sheep cam. Only 6 to go

I'm up drinking tea before I head to work, got up two hours ago - I need a lot of tea before I can go Grin

Sat with my brother and sister in law who is in labour. Fingers crossed it continues this time instead of trailing off with daylight. Poor woman has had a week of prodromal labour overnights.

Its on the list there…….MNet is 25years old etc

Then when you go in they’ve put links to all the classics
The one about Centre Parks is a scream
Then there’s another about a MNs son clay work
I haven’t looked at them all but I haven’t laughed so much in ages ….. Enjoy

Are you awake? What are you doing?

Evening!

I'm usually awake at this time, but I'm just watching a film and texting a man I like. So not having a bad time of it!

I'm waiting for a mild gallstone attack to pass before I go to bed.

Finished the good wife. Catching up on MAFS Aus now. DDog has decided to join me on the bed, for such a teeny dog he’s taking up a lot of room.

DH Just called from his ship
