Snuggled up on the sofa ready for sleep. Seem to have broken my sleepless nights problem which is a relief but i’ve been through all the tests & results etc so no more wondering & worrying for a while. I hope that no one has to visit here tonight & that you’ll all sleep soundly.

Pinch, punch, first of the month.
I hope you all get to make some zeds. I’m just about to crawl up the stairs but have my phone and my book with me just in case.
Sweet dreams all.

Pinch punch first day of the month white rabbits no return!
No pinching or punching my two white rabbits Snowy & Herbie cos they’re lovely, and do is the sandy & black latest addition Pebbles (who made me laugh out loud earlier when she tried to run off with hubby’s shoe).

Don’t know about pinching or punching but you certainly make me laugh ladies.I had never heard these sayings until I moved here. I worked with a wonderful man who had all those sayings and you reminded me of him. He tragically passed away 2 years ago and i miss him a lot. Thank you
I am up AGAIN tonight no doubt be here till stupid o’clock!!!

I say white rabbits too… And still awake too.

As usual I’m still up too! Last night I slept for around 10hrs, wow! I went to bed about 2.30am and woke at 12.30pm. I took a piriton, just taken one now and hoping it works again.
In yorkshire we also say ‘pinch punch first of the month’ and ‘white rabbits’. No idea why though, but it was an excuse at school to pinch or punch a boy.
Majelsty where did you move from and to? Wondering if the sayings are northern.
Wishing everyone sweet dreams soon… zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I moved from Ireland to Bolton near Manchester 26 years ago!!!
When i started working here i learnt a lot of new sayings. They are good.

Hope you all get a decent sleep I’m off to bed with my iPad but no Internet in my room so will chat to you all tomorrow.
Sweet dreams xxxx
I’m sure Irish sayings are good too, majelsty.
One of my closest friends is Irish and her sayings make me laugh.
An example is … Your old ar*e in a bandbox.
Hope you can sleep soon,

Night Night, Lulu. Sweet dreams, Libby x
Oh yes we have some also.

Wish i could sleep!!!
Where is that fairy?

Wish I knew, I think shes being a lazy flutterer tonight, if she carries on like this I’ll make her redundant. If I see her I’ll catch her and imprison her, keep her for a few nights, then send her your way.
Night night, sleep tight, watch the bugs don’t bite.

Thanks Libsue.
Hope you find her.
Night night

I’m still up…damn…and need the toilet now. That’ll totally wake me up! at least my dressing appointment isn’t until 1pm so massive sleep in allowed 
I’m starting to get fidgety at home so guessing I’m mending well and need to do more. Hubby & I will go to the cinema tomorrow after the hospital visit. First time in ages (plus can do my Orange 2 for 1 offer).
Will go visit the little room & then try & settle down for some sleep.
Night all

Feeling a bit guilty (but still really sleepy for some reason). I crawled off to bed just before 2, and slept like a log until 8.20. That wasn’t such a good thing as my daughter who I drive to school also overslept, so she was VERY late. Off this evening to see if I can still swim (haven’t been in the pool for ages) so by the time I hit the hay I should be really pooped and hopefully will sleep tonight as well. But let’s see, eh?

Well I went to bed just after 2am but didn’t get to sleep til after 4am… But had a long lie this moning so don’t feel too tired.
Fingers crossed we all find that sleep fairy tonight.

Hi
Am joining Hubby in bed tonight. Told him I’d stop holding the pillow over his head when he stops coughing ha ha. No seriously it will stop me finding things other than sleeping to do. Been out today do hopefully reserved energy levels down & I’ll sleep like a baby…bit like I did during the film at the cinema this afternoon (oops).
Sweet dreams to all

Erm, big girlie turned up so didn’t make it to the pool. But it’s very parky out there and the fire’s on so it’s toasty inside… And there’s always next week.
Hello…it’s me, here on the sofa again. I know it’s not his fault but the constant coughing & accompanying retching is really getting to me. I am now beginning to suspect that the real reason I am sleepless on the sofa is that it’s my only time of peace & quiet away from him. Trying to recuperate after an op with your hubby ill and sounding like each cough might be his last is not the way to rest & recover from surgery. I feel mean moaning here about him but I wish things had been different these past ten days. I think I’m a bit worn out from lack of rest. Don’t tell him
But delighted he’s packing his bag & going down to work on Monday as normal.
Snuggled up under several throws on the sofa including one that looks like someone skinned Bet Lynch from the Rovers…lol. Got the remnants of a box of Thornton’s Chocs still calling to me.
Anyone else up skulking around at this hour?
