What did you wake up to this morning?

[EdinaTheConfessor]

I was woken by my 7 year old crying because his 12 year old brother said he would give him £6 if he licked his feet. Then refused to give him the £6 after the feet were licked.

For the record I have enforced the £6 debt in the hope it will teach the 12 year old not to make stupid bets with his brother. FML.

What nonsense have you woken up to this morning?

Silence - it was wonderful. Am a grumpy so and so if I don't get my 30 minutes of silence before anyone else wakes up so it was a good morning.

A neighbour with loud machinery going. Yesterday it was a neighbour with workman in banging around and Monday it was yet another different neighbour doing noisy work in the garden. It's obviously the week for it.

Did he lick his own foot or his brother's? 🤣

An unusually low and noisy plane, coming in to land at the local airport. They don't usually wake me but the noise seems to be amplified in the warm still air.

Woke with the heat and the sad feeling of being home after a lovely holiday (and it was cooler there).
Then the gradual realisation that I needed to get dd to the station because she's going to London to watch a show. Probably Operation Mincemeat. Again.
Then I nearly fell over her because she's vacated her bedroom because while we (me and dh) were on holiday a spider the size of a squirrel apparently ran across the floor. Dh and ds unhelpful. So her room is now out of use until the apocalypse hits apparently.

I'm tempted to persuade either of them to hoover her room and tell her the squirrel-spider has gone, but neither of them is capable of keeping up a lie, and if I say that, she'll know it's a lie because I hate spiders too.

Husband's alarm at 7 as it's clear out of the holiday cottage and get to the ferry day

Better than 6am yesterday when 9yo had a nightmare about the dog dying (other ddog was put down a few weeks ago)

heat. I woke up to yet more fucking heat

That hilarious OP 😂 But also quite a terrible way to wake up, especially on a Saturday. My wake-ups are generally peaceful as my kids are young adults and we live in a quiet area. This morning I woke up feeling too hot which was helpful really as it prompted me to get up and get ready for work rather than stay put cuddling the dog.

The strangest wake-up I ever had was when I woke to small (at the time) DD at 4.45am who was dressed as a bride (complete with veil and flower headdress) and singing, very close to my face, in a high-pitched tone reminiscent of child singing voices in horror films. It was quite unnerving.

Awww we have a Sid and Nancy too, they just kiss though no sex.

Mine was a nice morning this time, I woke up to finally getting into the 15s, which I realise is still huge, however I started in the 19s and it feels like a big win.

Sweatiness. I’ve stripped the bed. Bloke from the neighbourhood app offering cardboard boxes so I can occupy myself packing up the house for the imminent move.

Maybe you should go scaffolding in the 35 degree heat and see how awful it must be. Do you realise how hot scaffold tubes get in this heat? No wonder the poor lads are starting so early.

Woke up in a Premier Inn, located miles from the city we actually came to visit 😁 But we did pay for the bottomless breakfast so not all bad (and had a cracking night out after we'd worked out buses!)

Bastard heat and noise

A small, round pony on the front lawn. So we'll be running a line of electric fencing round the paddock today. Bless his hooves. 💙

Neighbour having a bonfire #facepalm

Partner kissing me goodbye as he went off to work at 5.30 am. Which I don’t mind. Was less impressed by the neighbours having a conversation at normal volume meaning I struggled to get back to sleep

@idkbroidk I agree with your comment. That’s not normal or even funny to ask your little brother to do such a thing. The fact the 7 year old was crying speaks for itself. It wasn’t just about the money, he felt humiliated and the OP thinks that’s funny ffs. The 12 year old knew what he was doing, he’s a perv and was checking to see if his 7 year old brother would do as he asked if he promised him money. He’s creepy as f..k, what would he ask him to do next if he promises him more money?

Still not remotely reasonable to wake someone up at 5am.

The cat wanting his breakfast. That was at 5.30.

My partner took the toilet roll off the holder during the night and placed it on the toilet cistern. I had to do contortions to reach around to get it. He had done the same thing when I went to the toilet in the middle of the night and I put it back on its holder then.

I wish he had money to piss off permanently and leave me alone to enjoy my own space.

Get a grip of yourself. Imagine calling a child a pervert.

You and @idkbroidk should be ashamed of yourself.

Posters trying to be controversial and the desperation for attention on this site sickens me.

I woke up feeling cold, it's only about 21 here, mid Norfolk, might get some gardening done today now it's cooler.

A raging sore throat. 😫

My 10 year old coming in to declare he was awake and then going back into his room to read!
just read kid I don’t need that info at 7.15am 😂😂😂😂😂

Little dog jumping on the bed at 7am, tail wagging furiously and determined to wake me up to get breakfast ready.
