Tell me you're a tired parent without telling me you're a tired parent

Copied from a Facebook post I saw but the responses were funny so thought I'd ask here!

Today I played "sleeping bunnies" multiple times just for a 10 second rest on the floor where I could close my eyes

Fell asleep putting toddler to bed. 3 times.

Fantasises about getting locked in Joe Goldberg’s glass cage ( from YOU) just for a bit of a rest

Want to catch cov so I can have an excuse to stay in bed.

Put the kettle in the fridge. Didn’t notice for about 4 hours!

(This was 7 years ago, mine are a bit bigger now)

When quarantine hotels were introduced the idea was extremely appealing.

Text my friend about how gripping my book is and then fell asleep one minute later.

Did school run this morning with my coat not zipped up enough and everyone could see my rather embarrassing t shirt underneath (that I'd thrown on in the rush). Friend casually mentioned it after I'd dropped them all off after I'd had a lengthy conversation with one of the teachers 🤦‍♀️

Another sleeping bunnies one - sing it really, really slow each time to string out her being 'asleep' and not moving 😆

I made myself an cup of hot water instead of tea, then put it down and found it when it had gone cold. At least it saved a bit of washing up.

This morning I slept in 20 minutes over usual get up time. I felt really naughty

Made tea… no tea bag.
Got to work… blatantly zoned out during a video meeting 😂

The pope is getting a visit this weekend to see how he copes with them

@canary1 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Hoping I catch covid so I can isolate for 7-10 days

Keep falling asleep waiting for DS 14 to go to bed. I'll have a long wait.

I told a customer I'd chase someone up. "I'll go and stick my finger up his arse. FOOT! FOOT!"

My mouth & brain disconnected.

So tired...

I am relating to all these posts!

Kettle never been put in fridge though. I did manage to put my dds nappy on inside out many years ago though, I did it up and everything. When DP noticed, my only thought was - wow, I didn't even think it felt weird when doing it up

I had a basket load of laundry and loaded it all into the tumble dryer first instead of the washing machine.... fuming that I had to pull it all out again

When I put ds(5) to bed I usually sit with him and have a chat about his day as I barely see him on school/work days, I have had many a 20 minute accidental nap mid this chat (and I’m sure I’m asleep before him too)

Took eldest for her first day at preschool with no bra and my top inside out.

I play a lot of hide and seek with my toddler. In practice, this means I hide under a blanket on the sofa while he says 'Where Mamma?' a lot.

Everyone and everything is irritating me. Zero patience. Lots of eye rolling and huffing

The 4 hours I spent in A&E off my face on morphine were the most relaxed I have been in years...

Went into work today to grab some post. I went to get my id badge out of my pocket and had the following items:
2 hair clips
Half a rice cake
A toy mobile phone
A barbie shoe
2 pebbles
A small stick

Remind me what you asked again.
