5.38 can fuck off too.

CurtainsforRonnie · 09/10/2016 05:38

OutDamnedWind - go in & throw up all over the bastards Envy

Then home to bed Flowers

Not sure if mine is pre menopause or post viral (glandular fever) insomnia etc.
Either way it can fuck off. Hmm

Spudlet · 09/10/2016 05:41

Poor DS has been awake for an hour, DH has been rocking him all that time. He won't let me take over because I've been up once already.

Fucking, fucking, FUCKING TEETHING. AngrySad

angrycheese · 09/10/2016 05:45

Been awake since 3ish and it's utterly shit! I keep waking up earlier and earlier and then that's it. Even the dog keeps looking at me from his bed like I'm mad to be up. Bah.

OutDamnedWind · 09/10/2016 05:47

I think I might need some actual medical help. There's a couple of things I've been ignoring (arm/shoulder pain, tight chest) and, well, it just all feels connected. Not sure I can ignore it any more Sad

I'm building myself up to call NHS Direct to see if I can leave it until tomorrow for the GP.

SocksRock · 09/10/2016 05:50

5.50 is a bitch. OutDamnedWind - please call!

BathshebaDarkstone · 09/10/2016 05:54

I've been saying fuck off 3.36 for the first 4 days of this week, fuck off 1.30 on Friday, then I fell back to sleep and slept through my alarm. I didn't wake up until my alarm to get DD up went off. I've never got ready so quickly. Luckily we were back on track by 6.30.

This morning I didn't wake up until 5.

mudandmayhem01 · 09/10/2016 06:30

Been awake since 4 00, got to take DD swimming at 6.30. I wish she was a typical lazy teenager who wants to sleep in til lunchtime,

Tosnogornottosnog · 09/10/2016 06:34

I keep waking up at 5.30 every morning. It's very annoying.

AndShesGone · 09/10/2016 06:34

My puppy just woke me for cuddles. It's still dark

iloveeverykindofcat · 09/10/2016 06:38

Cat was walking on my face at 4am. Kneading, really. Considering change of username.

MrsTired · 09/10/2016 06:45

How I wish I had seen this at 4am. Up with poorly DD (2), had about 3/4 hours at most. I need a really strong Brew

MetalMidget · 09/10/2016 06:48

Two hours, great success! \o/ He's feeding again now.

chibsortig · 09/10/2016 07:24

7.22am can piss off i am exhausted Ds and Dd have taken it in turns to make sure i get no sleep. They'll be napping later else they'll be nasty and bitey yet if i so much as close my eyes DH (who is fast sleep still after sleeping all night) will say napping again chibsortig like all i do is sleep :( chance would be a fine thing.

MissTakesOurMaid · 09/10/2016 07:28

7:28 can fuck off too. Went to bed at 1am, and now the bad tummy that I thought had gone is back and woke me up. Except now I'm constipated. I want sleep. :(

ZebraOwl · 09/10/2016 07:42

Not-seeing-this-thread-until-now-when-I've-had-to-get-up-and-it-is-so-very-cold-and-I-finally-feel-like-I-might-sleep can absolutely do one.

On plus side, hairball I heard being hacked up by black!cat around 0400 (feck right off four am) was on bathroom floor. House is carpeted other than kitchen & bathroom. Cat has no idea why I heaped praise & fusses upon him when I went into the bathroom...

I don't really fancy a mile walk to church & herding the Brownies during Mass now.

Mouseinahole · 09/10/2016 07:54

I wish I had found this earlier I have been awake with excruciating ankle pain and nausea since 1:30 am. Just rung and going to ooh at 10.

MazeMap · 09/10/2016 07:58

I'm so tired. DS continued to cry every 20mins until 7am, when I left his room to make a cup of tea. He's now sleeping deeply! Think my coughing was waking him up Blush
We all have a bug, DH sleeping alone as he's still throwing up. I hate being ill.

MOIST · 09/10/2016 08:55

Morning. Hope you poor buggers get some rest today. I'm in bed but don't be envious. I suspect I'll be awake by about 11 and have to do another night tonight. Bastard insomnia. Fucker

I have a very excited 9 year old who is the proud owner of a drone. We're going out in a bit to fly the bastard thing.

WeedlesHatOfDisappointment · 09/10/2016 09:26

wind and mouse hope you both feel better soon.
4 year olf dd woke at 530, asking to go downstairs and play, he then had a tantrum. DH woke, and I may have hissed at him that I'd been awake since 3am. DH would have done it anyway, but took both boys downstairs, and I've just woken up. He heard me, and has told me to stay in bed for longer. I feel bad for hissing....

ZebraOwl · 09/10/2016 13:48

Brownies behaved perfectly during Mass. Honestly, I'd not even to remind one once about not putting their feet on the kneelers, never mind anyone having the fidgets or being tempted to talk... My newest Brownie carried the flag & was übercute with it. Quite what was going on in the head of the Guide who I'd to tell she couldn't carry her handbag & the Guide flag I don't know. Not only was she set to do that, when I said she couldn't & was to give the bag to me or to one of the other Guides, she promptly handed it over to one of the other members of the Colour Party. The mind boggles, it really does...

A Very Lovely Brownie Mummy drove me all the way down to the local petshop as we were leaving coffee morning at the same time & it's a fair step - even in Inner London Sunday buses are pretty rubbish so I'd rather be hoofing it along to keep warm & even with it being a good 45+min walk (at c4mph) chances are walking's faster than bussing. Getting a lift, however, is preferable to both & a thing of Serious Luxury. I say a lift - it was totally & ridiculously out of said Brownie Mummy's way, I shouldn't really have accepted her offer. (I really do have some very VERY lovely Brownie Parents. They drive me places out of their way, they visit me in hospital, they support the Unit... I've even had parents offer to do shopping for me! Am a spoiled owl.)

Now curled up on my bed with blond!cat & suspect 4PM may see me sleeping. Was trying to summon the energy &...stuff... required to prepare & eat food of some sort, but I'm just too tired...

4am. FUCK. OFF.
peaceloveandbiscuits · 10/10/2016 04:41

Hello 4:41. Fuck off.
