To still be awake?

[FunnyFoot]

I shouldn't be.

I have 4 DC's to get ready for school.
4 packed lunches to do.
4 lots of uniform to iron cos I am shit and iron on demand
4 lots of P.E kit I need to shout about it not being my responsibility.
4 pets to feed.
Washer to put on.
Dryer to put on.
2 dogs to walk
And me to get ready not look like a bush baby for work.
All by 8:45am

Forget it IABU. I should just deal with it.

I am keeping myself awake but I am not sorting out the kids school bags like I should be for the morning

YABU and so am I!

DD sleeping soundly next to me (have resigned to cosleeping), there is no excuse for MNing at this hour!

first waking night shift tomorrow with a nurse and colleague so no chance of even a 10 minute cat nap on my breaks...

Thats my excuse for MN at this hour!

Good luck!

Thanks! I will be going armed with coffee, sudafed and match sticks to keep my eyes open!

I can sleep all day though, which is good. I am hoping this is the worst night for it.

im hiding because im feeling ill and my husband is snoring like a chainsaw upstairs im going to have to go up there soon but i won't sleep with that row going on!

Oh the joy of hearing someone else snore when you want to be asleep!

Elbow just below the solar plexus works wonders norm

Totally got that from Miss Congeniality

I usually elbow him increasingly hard until he wakes himself up and then pretend to be asleep!

Done that.

DH: 'What what?'
Me 'What you on about numpty? Go back to sleep'
DH' Sorry'

Rolls on side. No more snoring

yep, classic, works every time!

stbDH on night shifts which screws my bodyclock... I feel for you quotes!

Ahh bless em they are lovely and a lil bit stupid

Well at least I will always be on nights. So my body clock will be constantly screwed the wrong way!

Well mine put a screw through a pipe doing DIY at midnight. EMergancy plumber has just left and now I have 2.5 hours left to sleep before I have to get up and face getting to work in the London tube strike. Mine is not so D anymore!

thats not the sort of screw you want at midnight.

nomore I totally laughed at that!

Ahh, his are every x number of weeks... just get back to normal and BAM.

I'm glad I can make you laugh in light of such a fucked up evening! Mine would be in the dog house if he did such a thing!

Yeah I did waking nights once before for a few weeks then back to normal, its a killer I don't think I could do it.

I am so keeping this one in the you owe me category for when I next bash the car or something. Well I must try and sleep, gotta earn some money tommorown to pay the £££££ for the eMergancy plumber.

best of luck, just let the sound of water whisk you away to a special place

not that it would have saved you calling out emergency plumber but apparently it a good idea to keep a wooden golf tee to pop in the hole you have drilled in the pipe as it stops the water flooding out.
