I probably am being unreasonable. I usually am. But I am sleep deprived, loaded with the cold and pissed off.
We live in a quiet street. Last night DD (6 months) was awake and crying for hours. Teething, plus i think she has the cold.
So she finally, finally settles down for a good sleep around 6am. I am shattered and also fall asleep, having had one of those nights.
7.45am - DD is suddenly awake again. Why? Because the DAMN FISH VAN parked underneath her bedroom window and sounded it's horn in a long, continuous fashion to alert the neighbourhood to its presence.
To cut a lion story short, this is not the first time said fish van man has made me feel a bit stabby. Selfish, inconsiderate tosser. I know that he's not outwith the legal horn-sounding time limits and I know the world does not stop turning because my daughter had a bad night, but honestly, I'm just so tired and she's still not gone back to sleep.
I guess you lovely people will (hopefully gently) tell me that I am being unreasonable but is there any understanding out there?? I need some solidarity today.
