You know you need more sleep when....

[OntheWaves40]

You accuse DP of having an affair because there’s a She pee in your car and you hate camping. DP calmly told me it’s a petrol filter and made me a cuppa.

Tell me why you need more sleep...

When you put a jug of milk on the ground outside the back door and only realise something’s wrong when the cat objects to being put in the fridge.

This is a classic MN thread, surely?
Must be...laughing til sides ache & face leaks.
😂

When dd was a baby..
Ds wants pasta, dcat wants meat.
Keep repeating this.
Even while offering ds a bowl of whiskas.
Ds refused his whiskas.
Dcat licked the sauce off her pasta.

Stuntpond
Are you me?

When you mangle your words, eg 'I was putting my bush out' instead of 'pushing the boat out' 😂

I once drained the pasta over the pasta bowl, leaving myself a bowl of pasta water, then tipped the pasta from the colander into the bin.

At work we all have a smart card which slots into the keyboard so we can gain access to the system. I suffer badly from insomnia and whilst sleep deprived the other morning I put my debit card in several times obviously to no avail. Just about to call the IT person when I realised.

No one has ever complimented my nails before 😊
@Totickleamockingbird it’s just essie shade ‘eternal optimist’

Partner put coffee in the fridge and milk in the cupboard....

Iv made plenty of "hot" drinks but the kettle hasn't boiled

Opened a pouch of cat food and instead of emptying it into a bowl, Emptied it into the bin.
Done this more than once

@SimonJT,
that sounds like a perfectly reasonable way to enhance a rather plain dinner
@Thomasina79
Yep I have done that too, I have also used mine to try to pay for stuff in shops and bus fare

I poured coke into my weetabix instead of milk

Tired is

Answering the door to the postman, I had to sign for a parcel.

Instead of signing the screen on the iPad I picked it up and said my name out loud.

(This was before lockdown and social distancing)

When you text your DH to tell him he has left his phone at home 😳

Phoned someone and got the answerphone:
"Can you please call me back on 01... erm, I forgot, I'll call you back"
Phoned again after reciting my own phone number a few times:
"Hi, me again, can you call me back on 01... nope, it's gone again"
In the end I had to write down my own phone number and recite it down the phone .
I'd had that number for 5 years!

When your toddler does a shit in he bath and when you notice he’s making a fuss, you wonder for a second how a piece of wood got into the bath.
Until you realise what it is and you’re like OMFG THERE’S A GIANT TURD IN THE BATH!

Or you put your kid’s nursery bag on top of the car, whilst your sort him out in the seat and actually drive off. I decorated the whole street with day sheets. Didn’t even notice until I got home and lost his nicest pair of trousers. I thought only people in slapstick films did this.

Was woken up from a nap by the window cleaner:
"Scuse me, sorry to wake you, but you left your keys in the door again".
It's the "again" that was the real kicker.
Not only had I done this more than once, the window cleaner had noticed it!

When you try and change the TV channel with the phone(cordless landline).
When come downstairs in the morning with dirty washing and merrily put it in the kitchen bin.When you try and unlock the front door with the car key.
When you're halfway home walking back from the supermarket when you remember you actually drove to the shops because you were intending on filling the car with petrol.
I could go on 🙄

I put my son in the bath yesterday but forgot to take off his socks and nappy.
Frequently "loose" my house keys only to discover they're in the front door.
Knowing I've done several other stupid things but being too tired to remember what they are (probably a good thing 😁).

@Bobbiepin and @Bramblecrumble

Before opening your tin of beans, turn them wrong way up for a minute or 2. Turn right side, open with the ring pull. Gravity will bring the beans to the 'top'.

I still forget my landline number and I've had that over 20 years! 😁

And I thought one black shoe one blue shoe was it!

Tired is.... driving home from Sainsbury’s then realising you’ve parked outside your old house that you moved from 9 months ago!

Calling your cat by DP's name.
