annie I mix it up..last week I stayed up finishing stuff off till 2.30a.m then still up early doors but then it all caught up with me friday night and was crashed out by 9 Blush

the nice thing about doing chores first thing is I feel like I've actually acheived something even if the rest of my day goes T*ts up which can easily happen as a SAHM Wink

I'm a lark too - 5:45am this morning for running not a problem as long as I go to bed at a sensible time. I can't mix it up at all - if I know I'm up early, I'm in bed early. I don't deal at all well with less than 7 hours or so sleep, and 8-8.5 is ideal for me.

Not having much of a fashion moment today as I can't decide if it's going to warm up or not. Might swap skinnies for shorts later if it gets warmer.

I love that sense of achievement I get after doing 2 hours work before breakfast!
I am in that panic stage before everything is packed. I always think the big bag is bigger than it is.
Think have persuaded DH to let me take my trainers, so aim to hit the hotel gym on alternate nights. Have loaded up the kindle and have my A level Spanish dvds with me ready to work out some themes and lesson plans. It's a good plan..!
Weather not looking too 'hot' though. Hoping to buy some Chanel April in the airport. That is what red had on at MU wasn't it?
Will be back later.

I work odd times. The worst is if I can't sleep due to thinking about it, I sent some work at 3am once I had to say I'm not usually like that but I knew I wouldn't sleep til I had done it then thought I might oversleep so just sent it.

The project I'm working on is nearly done it will be nice to be released from thinking about it.

Yes did see Annie in our nearest nicest big park. It took a few moments for my Mn brain to kick in Grin. Lovely to see you. We went on the boats instead, then met with friends I haven't seen for a few years. Geez it was good to see them!

I woke up and got ready for school run then ds1 says no school, had totally forgotten.

pickledsiblings · 02/04/2012 09:37

Reine, I'm desparate to know what it is that you are doing until 2.30am. Obviously nothing that requires natural light . Thought of you when a friend sent me details of this Louboutin exhibition at the Design Museum.

Marsha, LOL at you up and ready for school this morning.

Bloss, what a plan! Good luck with it all Smile.

MarshaBrady · 02/04/2012 09:58

I just forgot the eggs too. I had 12 hours sleep last night, bed at 8. So tired asleep before it was dark. Feeling a bit out of it now however!

Does anyone manage without coffee? I'm trying to limit to one a day.

I know, she was oh! at the time. But it was just internal client, ie people I freelance for, rather than real client. You're right I wouldn't send to real client at that time.

I am really out of it. And I need to make a phone call today.

MarshaBrady · 02/04/2012 10:03

Haha that's fine. People without children are completely Confused at how I do things. No idea usually what motivates me Grin

I know, I drink too much and it affects my sleeping pattern and I lie there in the night while the children finally sleep after two years grr.

MarshaBrady · 02/04/2012 10:06

We're on time lapse convo here. Grin

Very few have children. Just you wait, I think... til you see the cost of childcare.

If I have 2 or 3 in the morning before midday it still affects me. I am SUCH a light weight.

If I were to have a strong coffee at 4pm I'd be awake for 24 hours. Madness!

Haha ask dh about a certain night on holiday in Crete, he may tell you otherwise Grin

pickledsiblings · 02/04/2012 10:31

Marsha, instant coffee is the way to go - I drink Douwe Edgberts Pure Gold and 3 or 4 of those = one real coffee. Don't think it would work for you though Annie, think you need the strong stuff.

yes these days I get the strongest Peruvian stuff from a little stall at a Saturday market.

I feel like I've discovered the pure thing, could have something to do with it.
