Very dull but I'm bored!

[gaveitago]

I' m one of those lazy teachers, so on holiday now. I'm always up at 6, lost the ability to sleep in, too old. I've had two hours of lurking am itching now to Hoover and mow lawn and generally make noise. but have three snoring teenagers upstairs. should I be kind, wait and let them sleep or turn into nagger mum and get them up.

Sort out a couple of drawers. You know the ones that accumulate stuff.

Let the kids sleep and make some coffee.

Clean the fridge.

hoover, strim, whatever you need to do. they'll sleep through it.

Its gone 9 they have had long enough to lie in.

If they complain tell them they can help you so it's done quicker that will soon shut them up up

I'd mow the lawn and hoover, it is 9.21 after all.

I would get on with the noisy stuff and if they wake up, Tough! But I'm a meanie. I wouldn't bother actually going up to them to wake them though, because I remember being a teenager and I never got up when my mum told me to...

Surely you're lesson planning?!?
Isn't that what teachers do all summer

I'm sure they will sleep through it.Just get on with it.

Although mine are 7 and 10 and do not sleep in I cannot imagine waking them up LikeMyMotherUsedToDo

What is the point? Unless you have plans and need to go out surely that is what the holidays are all about?

Sleeping, eating at different times, slumming around if you want to!

My Mum would wake us up, make us get dressed and no quilts on the sofa!!

I am non-noisy till 9. If teenagers want to sleep past 9, then they have to learn to sleep through the washing machine, Hoover etc. Mine does...

You don't need to wake them up, but no need to be quiet either!

Go mow the lawn.

I have done some lesson planning, well thought about it anyway
. I have about six "man draws" that I'm too scard to go near.
the oldest has just got up, seems very surprised with himself, asked for bacon and gone straight on computer. he' s going out later to Do Olympic volenteering.

Did anyone else's mum Hoover and actually push the Hoover into their room to wake them up? I would never do that. Never know why she wanted me up anyway, she did nothing but moan at me when I WAS up.

I will cook bacon, the smell will raise the other two zombie like from their beds.

I honestly think I would enjoy the peace!

Akaemmafrost are you my sister? That's why I have the dilemma, don't want to be like my mayrter mum.

after 19 years of 3 sons I get bored with peace and quiet, have trained myself to crave chaos.

YABU

why Trills? Anyway, youngest up too now, both eating bacon sarnies. middle so in throws of growing spurt so will sleep till tea Time !

by the way the terrible typing is all down to the iPad, not my fault at all!

Because you've posted on AIBU and haven't asked an "Am I Being Unreasonable?" question.

Because you are complaining that you have 6 (perhaps more) weeks off.

Will that do? :)

oh, I thought the AIBU was implicit, AIBU to wake them. Did I complain about six weeks off? really complaining about my stupid inability to indulge in the six weeks of holiday cos of manic, possibly menopausal, personality

Oh god aka, my mum did that. My sister and I used to groan and say "one up - all up".

OK, YANBU to complain that you have something that most people would enjoy and you are unable to enjoy it

Sorry. ian now enjoying the thanks I got for breakfast and that youngest son has asked if he can help with garden. just to piss you off further Trills, I will now go and have lovely morning of gardening and chatting with ds.

another hoovering mum here! i am total opposite, we are all lounging around in pjs not a care in the world. i often wonder if all the things i do in order to not be like my mum will mean my kids will try not to be like me and thus be hoovering rounds their kids beds at 8am :)
