Stayed up quite late with the DCs (teenagers) and had an amazingly funny chat. Nice for us all.

Thought I'd have a mooch on MN.

i'm here to tell you that i am not a spelling pedant and indeed, my grammar leaves a lot to be desired.

but people who use text spelling of three letter words need to have a word with Jesus

I'm wondering what I did so wrong that karma has hit us with a tummy bug at Christmas for the second time. I'm nice!

I had to pick up one son from a party and have to pick another son from football match but it is a long way from Everton to South Wales so I am still waiting for the text to say he is almost home!

My 12yo is starting to be terrific company, I suddenly get why people can talk about what fun crazy fascinating bizarre creatures their teenagers can be.

I cannot sleep.
I think that I have insomnia brought on by a single glass of wine at 5pm. This has happened the last few times I had any wine & I feel a wee bit miffed about it.
Am looking up all the ways alcohol may cause insomnia, I really can't tell which biochemical mechanism it is, but one of them has kicked in for me & may never go away. It feels like I drank a big cup of tea at 9pm ... but I didn't. No caffeine since this morning. I'm not worrying about anything. My mind is just jolt awake & has been for about 3 hours. I have a feeling this is going to be permanent & I can never drink booze again. Grrrrr!

Ooh, we had a tummy bug last Xmas. Took over 3 weeks to slowly mooch around the whole family (all 6 of us). Gawdawful.

Happy birthday Yule`s son!

Reminiscing on the past year, mostly the downs. Why do we always think about the downs rather then the ups? Well actually I'm also thinking how proud I am of my premmie DS who's doing so well... But then back to the downs of what a horrific time it was. Far too emotional so thought I'd see if I could find a giggle on MN

Custard. This talking to Jesus thing. How does it work? Can I use my hand held portable telecommunications equipment? Grin

I may have overdosed on Beechams.........!

Never been more awake in my life!!!

LineRunnerCrouchingReindeer · 22/12/2011 01:01

lljkk I have to read for at least 30 minues before I fall asleep, but it does work. Especially if it's trash. It kind of empties the mind, and sends it to sleep.

My DD doesn't get how I can read 'murder thrillers' at night, but that's what they do to me .... Patricia Cornwell ... zzzzz.

CowboysGal · 22/12/2011 01:01

I'm wondering whether to get in bed next to DH who is in my bad books tonight so I'm up for last minute xmas shopping in the morning or if a better idea is to have Brew or Wine and stay up late meaning a sluggish day tomorrow and last minute shopping on xmas eve

maristella · 22/12/2011 01:01

I m celebrating the end of a very challenging week , and the end of my working year Grin

lljkk teenagers are amazing, a revelation that teenary could be without harm if you felt it bad and play it right :)

t0lk13n · 22/12/2011 01:02

I`m trying to stay awake as my son just texted to say he is in the middle of nowhere...I am assuming he means on the motorway somewhere! Lots of coffee drunk but not working!
