I mean ok, I only got 3 hours sleep last night, and 4 hours the night ebfoer that due to DD2's pox keeping her awake, and she might wake again tonight.
And the fact that when he told me he didn;t have any cigs left I burst into hysterical tears

Still, ordering me to bed!
Git.

Goober · 20/01/2010 20:03

Bugger off to bed with ya. Wish I was sent to bed.

hairygodmother · 20/01/2010 20:16

No CBeebies for a week! Oh you lucky thing ...

Georgimama · 20/01/2010 20:16

Tut tut re cigarettes (whoever they are for). Otherwise he sounds great. I think the fact that you are mardy about him being so sweet just proves that you are too tired to be rational and need to go to bed.

EssenceOfJack · 20/01/2010 20:20

Sob, you are all mean!

I am in my bed, mning fro my phone! Hah! Tell me when my 'no cbeebies' punishment kicks in + I'll log off.....

I only have 1cigarette a day, once the girls are both asleep I go outside + transform fro 'muuuuuummy' back into me

He is lovely though, he just gets very amused when I am shattered as I get completely irrational and childish.
So there

Me too.
I have been sent to bed for being over tired and grumpy before now

naturopath · 20/01/2010 21:29

me too - I have been sent to bed a lot lately due to ds not sleeping well and me being overtired.

so, from a well-understood perspective (does that make sense? I don't know, I'm too tired), YABU and YANBU.

You need to sleep, your family needs you to sleep, but gd, don't you just hate being sent to bed?!!

tortoiseonthehalfshell · 21/01/2010 00:57

Oh, gosh, I would adore it if my husband sent me to bed early. What actually happens is that I say I'm shattered, he talks about how nice it is to have some alone time once our daughter is in bed (she's a night owl, it's usually close to 9 before she's in bed) and then looks all disappointed when I want to go to bed. So I say okay, let's watch some telly for a bit and chat, and then it's 10 and once again I haven't caught up on sleep.

So, my dear, YABU, and I hope you are feeling better today.

GoddessInTheKitchen · 21/01/2010 01:03

tortoise.... its nearly one! and you make 10 sound bad lol

i wish i could go to bed at 10, i would be so refreshed, but i do the same as you, sit up chatting and watching tv with dp

i'm going to bed now! NOW!

TheLadyEvenstar · 21/01/2010 01:11

Can i have a ban on cbeebies if i promise not to or to go to bed??? can i can i pleaseeeeeeeeeeeee

tortoiseonthehalfshell · 21/01/2010 01:25

Well I get up at 6, and I do the night wakeups, so 10 is necessary. Sad, tragic, pathetic, but necessary.

And it's not 1am here, I'm in Australia. Get to bed, you lot.

TheLadyEvenstar · 21/01/2010 01:29

tortoise nooooooo sleep is for the weak!!!!

EssenceOfJack · 21/01/2010 08:19

I am not happy. Lights out at half 8, dh came up at 11, dd2 woke at half 11 for a cuddle + i gave her some meds + cream, and then we ALL slept until my alarm went off at half 7 that never happens!

So now I am bleary from too much sleep and DH is sooooo smug that he was right, grrr.
