Anyone else counting down the hours until bedtime?

Because I sure am!

My two have done nothing but argue, tantrum, refuse dinner, and answer back, since coming home from school...and the noise and mess!

My stress levels are feeling sky high!

I have tricked them, they believed it was bedtime when I told them, and went to bed 10 minutes ago

My boys are 4 & 8, and will argue that it's not bedtime, even when it is!

20 minutes before I get DS2 to bed, and 40 minutes before DS1 goes!
They are quiet for the first time since coming home from school, as they are watching TV.

I am getting the wine chilled!

southeatsastras · 19/09/2007 18:51

i'm getting wine chilled to pc though i shouldn't on a wednesday night, just had a crappy day

flossie64 · 19/09/2007 18:53

Very much so . My dd watched video about fairies at school yesterday and then had me up half the night because she was scared and having bad dreams.
Who ever told me they would sleep really well when they start school lied.
22mins and counting.

TheQueenOfQuotes · 19/09/2007 18:55

1hr and 5 minutes until my lot go - DS1 and 2 are ok - but DS3 woke up at 5.20.....and 2 1/2hrs is a long time to keep him awake without some grumyness (and if I let him go early it will completely b*gger up tonights sleep and tomorrow naps too)....

I know it's Wednesday, and I know I have work in the morning, but I also feel I deserve a wine or two, SEA!

My house looks like a bomb has gone off today!
