[MrsShrek3]

seeing as I am awake again
come hither!

yay, daisy me old mate
fancy seeing you up at daft o clock.... (hugs) how's the move going?

Waves to all sat in work car park drinking coffee to stay awake roll on 5 pm < misses kitty too > places posh sushi on to thread to lure kitty out here kitty kitty

SummerDad thank you for the welcome.

MrsS I was looking forward to a catch up; the move is horrific so far .

Afraid I took a sleeping pill which actually worked but know I'll be back tonight. If only I'd read this thread on one of the gazillion sleepless nights I've had this year.

Daisy welcome to our little thread < puffs cushions >

Morning all - I've been up a lot at night but know if I start chatting I'll never get back to sleep so trying to resist!

Welcome Daisy!

daisy this is where I've been hiding you should have turned up sooner so I wouldnt have to stalk you
you don't have to grin at the move being horrific. it's rubbish that you have to do it so soon hoping you have lots of rl helpers (and a wheelbarrow )

eww stars. w-w-w-w wooorrrkkk It should be banned.
(yes it is back to work for me next mon and no planning done on paper it's all in my head now I've decided I dont like children going to schools either, they should all stay at home and play )

TheMW I tried that. I didnt sleep that way either so decided it's better to have the company

have we mislaid mini now?

I have gone back to load of ill adressed payslips which means I have to hunt down the owners
< applies war paint> waves to midwife

It's the nocturnal university dodger who is my night time problem! He's supposed to be going back to Manchester today for exam retakes starting tomorrow but currently still sleeping wish he ffing did last night! I mean who makes gravy at 4.45am?!!!! Repeated attempts to rouse him have failed so far!

I am cross & tired

Hands midwife gin

Slurp!

He now informs me he is leaving at 4am!

Am glad you missed me Mrs.
Have been oooop north. Alleged holiday break, in reality mad drive round friend children, parents and aged Aunts, am now knackered. G n T for me.
Stars....nightmare. Hope things are settling. Is he one of the undead Midwife?

Yes. Although he did poke one of my new hens with a bamboo cane to get her out of the bushes & back into the run so he has his uses!

My ex battery hens arrived Sunday & are laying & exploring already bless them!

Ooop north eh Mini?! Too many pies or did you stick to the dirt?!

Am afraid I strayed Midwife, can't resist Northern Fish n chips. They just don't do em right down here.

harumph

I spent bank hols working.. have eaten so many biscuits have gained weight again - and generally feeling really grumpy! I am SO stressing about my various workloads I am fantasising about quitting the lot of 'em (I mean, only doing one at a time..)

Sorry about starlet angst you did the right thing stars, tough love

mini - I have caught your itchy now! I have really allergic itchy flaky mad eyelids I wonder if it is the dates (for I am allergic to dried apricots)

hello daisy!

yes MrsS I was awake at 4/5am but cleaning my kitchen

ooooh proper fish and chips in newspaper please yummy

is it the ink that makes them taste so good?

Chips & gravy - sigh!

It's the combination of the right kind of batter. Crispy all the way through, not soggy bready layer and my kids reckon they never change the cooking fat so chips have extra flavour
Slimmers world diet gone a bit to pot. < stares down at fatty folds around middle>

Same here - endless fish & chips, ice creams & cream teas and vats of wine in Wales last week!

Back to normal this week!

I read your bit about the making gravy to dp and he instantly said sounds like starlet one night last week he finished work around 4:30 and saw starlets light going off and on all he could hear was now you see me now you dont she was on skype chatting to a friend playing peek a boo !!!!

plus she makes toast at wired times and raids the biscut box she got her new braces on and they hurt she choose the colour of the bits on her teeth (am mega techianal me) out of all the colours she choose black

Midwife do you think a cattle prod would help young zombie

Mini I too love northan chips chips must be drowning in vingear and buried in salt though

Oh bless cafe try not to work to hard

< brings in a vat of gin a barrel of tonic and a lemon tree

I guess nocturnalness (sp?) is a "normal" teenage trait Stars but zombie is now 21! It's like having a newborn baby who woke me 3 times last night!

Ministars should settle down in time I think. Hopefully a passing phase.

Meanwhile - the gin is lovely thanks!
I made a crumble with the blackberries we picked today down the lane. Fancy some anyone?

Holds out empty bowl gives midwife puppy dog eyes

Dp said she settle down once in school as she be busy doing her last year and 2 yrs of art coursework in 1 year though if watching back to back esps of honey boo hoo, crimeal minds and csi was a btec she would get top marks
