The Early Bird…..

 Heres me, Being the Early Bird!
I was awoken this morning at the incredibly ungodly hour of 430am by a boisterous, talkative and very excited 18month old.
“Excited about what?” I hear you ask.
Who the f*ck Knows! Im sure she did as she got herself out of her cot ( a feat in itself!!) and wandered into mum and dads room with all the authority and pomposity of a regal queen.
It was time to get up, didnt we know that?

After I focused my eyes and got my bearings, it really was rather adorable. She hasnt slept since though and we are currently at ten-and-a-half-hours-awake and counting. Hopefully she’ll flake out early tonight and the other half and I can have a romantic eveing…….

ahhhh that would be lovely!

In other news, I am currently applying to university to complete a foundation program in Health sciences so I can go on to do either nursing or midwifery next year. I didnt pay much attention in either maths or science and the whole quantive problem solving section of my mind is a wee bit rusty, so this course will help me grease the wheels again!

I have had a good day though and Im thinking that perhaps waking up early isnt such a bad thing….. dont get me wrong i usually emerge before 7am, and 430 is disgustingly early, but a nice medium, 530-6am could be beneficial, particularly when it comes to losing weight. I had so much more energy to go walking this morning and my brain was still half asleep so there was less mental resistance!!

Eats Shoots and Leave. Peace Out xoxoxo

    EGAD! I remember those days. 4.30am wake ups. Through reading a bit of literature and talking to a pediatrician I was assured that it was simply because he didn’t know how to put himself back to sleep and thought now was a great time to play.

    Unfortunately he started this right before I met Mr Wonderful so once he started sleeping over I just wanted to cry (not getting to bed myself until midnight most nights then getting up and staying up from 4.30am. Bliss. Not.

    You still sound rather bubbly. LOL
