I need sleep!


Yesterday evening started with me having to lecture the kids about attitude and telling tales.

Then I had to cope with the tears and  guilt in my heart after I said good night.


We hadn’t eaten so I was cooking at 9.30pm… So dinner wasn’t eaten until 10pm, soooo bad!

After a quick couple of posts, I made lunches for the next day, and at 11pm I was ironing.

Yes. Ironing.

I need to get things organized before the bash so needed to do this!

No time to write another school report…

11.30pm was the time my bed felt my presence so I read a little then finally snuggled down for a decent nights sleep.

Fat chance!

As I drifted off Hubby Dearest woke me. “He’s wet the bed!” Not him, Sonu Singh the cat!

It seems the litter tray hasn’t been cleaned yesterday, (bad mummy and daddy!),he fell asleep and after holding it in for so long, wet himself, in my bed, in his sleep!

Though I was sympathetic, I was not happy.

Cue stripping of bedding and linen, washing machine on, finding more bedding…

In was past 1am before I finally slept, and had a fitful nights sleep.

My alarm reliably woke me at 6am… I love the snooze button!


Tonight I have cleaning to do, and a little beautifying for tomorrow…

I NEED an early night.

Will it happen?

I need energy for all that talking I’ll be doing tomorrow!!!!

1 sleep to go!!!

A very subdued Eeeeeeeeek!!!!!!!

    OMG I hate nights like that! You poor thing. SO much of motherhood is exactly this. x

    I feel your pain. Having the cat wet the bed…my goodness!
    I am constantly trying to get all my ducks lined up but there’s always one which has to jump out of line. Play up. Screw things up.
    This was illustrated for me recently when I made Nigella’s Nutella Cake. It might not have been a cataclysmic fail but it did look like an earthquake had hit. I wrote about it in this coffee share post: https://beyondtheflow.wordpress.com/2016/05/29/weekend-coffee-share-29th-may-2016/

    PS I gather you’re meeting up with Geoffle at the Blogger’s Bash. Say hello. I’d love to be there…and to Suzie. I’ll have to get an Australian one up and running.

    It’s so funny that we yearned to stay up past midnight in our youth and then dream of getting to bed by 9 pm as we mature. Hang in there…it gets better. 🙂

    I suspect this blog is your safety valve when I read about days like that! Get some rest tonight, Ritu, and let the family pamper you like a queen!

    What? You did a couple posts and ironing between 10 and 11.30? Are you a magician? My bed would not have seen me until 2am. How are you doing this all? But that night was really not meant for you…. hope you get some more sleep tonight… 😘 😘

    I hope you get the sleep you need. I understand completely. One night I will get a wonderful restful sleep and the next I will be up all night in pain or coughing or anxiety or how about all three? Anyway, I wish for you a very peaceful night. And now I better go clean the kitty litter….. 😉
