lighthearted

Very exciting news…. my little sleep-demon toddler is actually asleep! So what should this mummy do? Make the most of it and get some sleep? Or make the most of it and tidy the house?

I’m working full days so can’t utilise nap time for snoozing or housework. There is lots that needs doing, but I’m also shattered.

YABU - clean your house you scruffy pig

YANBU - go to sleep, your exhausted

Feet up, crap tv, bed.

Rest. Think how raging you'll be if you waste it by doing something as boring as housework.

MrzClaus · 30/11/2021 21:19

Make as little noise as possible....definitely get yourself to sleep!! 😂 enjoy!!!

OtherPlans · 30/11/2021 21:21

Stay very very quiet and still. And sleep.

WayneKorr · 30/11/2021 21:21

Cup of tea and watch rubbish TV for a bit

Hohofortherobbers · 30/11/2021 21:21

Bed now, you have no idea when this may happen again xx

Get your sleep house can wait

KatherineofGaunt · 30/11/2021 21:22

I'm in bed! Toddler just fell asleep beside me. Ill be buggered if I'm staying up to tidy. I'll do it after work tomorrow. Right now, a bit of MN and then sleep!

Enjoy, OP!

OhDear2200 · 30/11/2021 21:22

Do not do housework.

Sit, stair at a well then go to bed. Totally guilt free.

HerRoyalHappiness · 30/11/2021 21:24

Don't do housework! That'll make noise and wake the sleep demon.

ThisWormHasTurned · 30/11/2021 21:25

I would do one thing that’s easy so that I felt proud of myself in the morning…even if it’s just washing up. Then I’d have a bath and go to bed.

GertrudePerkinsPaperyThing · 30/11/2021 21:25

In bed now!

DeliaOwens · 30/11/2021 21:31

YABVU-get thee to bed and sleep.

Dust If You Must
by Rose Milligan

Dust if you must, but wouldn't it be better
To paint a picture, or write a letter,
Bake a cake, or plant a seed;
Ponder the difference between want and need?

Dust if you must, but there's not much time,
With rivers to swim, and mountains to climb;
Music to hear, and books to read;
Friends to cherish, and life to lead.

Dust if you must, but the world's out there
With the sun in your eyes, and the wind in your hair;
A flutter of snow, a shower of rain,
This day will not come around again.

Dust if you must, but bear in mind,
Old age will come and it's not kind.
And when you go (and go you must)
You, yourself, will make more dust.

Or failing all that, have a sleep Grin

Cheers all. Sleep won 😀
