Well it’s been an emotional rollercoaster of a week, everything feels that way when you’re sleep deprived. I’ve averaged 3.5 hours of sleep a night so my Fitbit tells me.
What are normal, everyday occurrences seem like monumental feats when you’re depleted on the zzzz.
Take the other morning for example, got up with the dogs at 5am, I do not moan about this at the moment because the walk is in dappled sunshine, peppered with pleasant floral smells (sounds like I’m talking about wine, any minute I’ll be mentioning Hollyhocks like that Gilly woman always used to) and I like watching the daisies wake up and drink in the sunshine.
Tilly has a favourite poo spot, who am I to question her OCD, I find it pleasantly reassuring. Tilly is a dog.
Even though we are amid a heatwave I still wear my wax coat with a hood as it is my dog walking coat, has deep pockets and nicely covers my pyjamas! Although on this occasion it let me down as what I thought was a bunch of poo bags turned out to be one bag scrunched up with a glove!
I will not let this hold me back I thought to myself and you could even read that in a tone worthy of a knight on a crusade.
Instead of bagging Tilly’s offering and disposing of it in the bin she likes to poo next to (could she be more awesome?) I decided to keep my one bag in hand for Hollys gift.
I was pleased as punch when I’d flicked Holly’s wares in to the bag and knotted the top of the bag only to spot Tilly doing her Tilly Two poo trick! Anyway I managed to undo the knot and bag the offending article but who knew bagging poo could be such an exciting start to one’s morning? So much so that I felt the need to write about it and share! Told you I was tired!
Poor little Harry has had an ear infection for most of this week, but still managed to make me chuckle! For some unknown reason we were talking about those fish that used to eat the dead skin off your feet, remember those? I was trying to explain to Harry why they’re not around anymore to which he responded
“Is it because they all got Covid?”
Which for some unknown reason really tickled me.
I was explaining to him about something else and he nodded his head, placed his hand on my arm and said , good word Mummy, well done! I felt like I’d been given an A by the teacher!
The boys graduated reception this week which was wonderful and I was a crying mess at that! I also cried when my hot tub broke, but Lee encouraged me to get a lovely new one which wasn’t supposed to arrive until Monday evening but I’ve had a notification to say it’s on its way today! 8 stops away to be precise! I’m going to hug the bejesus out of that Amazon delivery driver! Unless Lee gets there first.
To clarify, Lee won’t be hugging any delivery drivers but he’ll probably help them to save themselves and get away!
Ollie has been the happy sunbeam whom has sung us all through this week!
Life is good! The sun is shining, I managed a full 6 hours sleep last night and we’re off to a children’s party today where I’m being allowed to do face painting!!
Love and hugs, kisses and wishes x make the most of every day, you never know how long you’ve got xxx
