D*mn. It's tomorrow already... and I'm still not anywhere near ready to go to bed (or tired). I need to try to reset my body clock so that I get up and go to bed on the same day.... no, that's not right, I already do that just in the wrong order . I need to go to bed before midnight... and then I might not find getting up at 6am such a struggle

LMF - you're welcome to join us. We're all happy, organised, under-control-people with matching pegs

I'm the same, can't sleep, hence on here writing carp and answering the mad duo and looking at videos of pegs... do you think it's a requirement to be mad to be on this site, or does it just happen to you the more you are on here????? getting a bit worried now...

Trouble with being up is that I'm home tomorrow, so about 10am I am going to get really tired and probably fall asleep, which totally messes me up for sleeping again tomorrow night, it's a vicious circle...

Thanks for the advice earlier by the way, will definitly look out for some of that stuff you said - that was what I meant about the bandwagon thing - it's like the low fat stuff, what they don't tell you is they put 10 tonne of sugar in instead to make it low fat...:mad: I think I have been on one of the sites before.. will have to check.

Right, I am going to try to do one more thing and if I start yawning, I'm going to try bed again... see you all in the morning...

Night all,

You have nothing to fear Beccah. Valli and I will take you under our wings and look after you;)

Just to enlighten you a bit. It's now a bit of a standing joke that Valli and I came out of the closet, so to speak, and confessed to only hanging out our washing using matching pegs. Coupled with the fact that Valli is a self confessed duster ironer. And I will only iron 15 items at a time.

But, all the joking aside. This is a lovely supportive thread. We're all really nice. Love a giggle (as you may have noticed) And each of us makes this thread special in our own unique way.

You'll love it here I'm sure. Though beware it can become addictive.

Right I'd better go to bed as it's silly o clock yet again and I reallly need to do some flying tomorrow.

Very true - lovely bunch, although none of us can sleep lately (dreaming of pegs... :rotfl: ) Night Tag, I'm off too now as have finished playing with my new Business Contact Manager bit on my emails (finally got it to upload...:( )

Morning all

DeniseF - nope, I haven't been dreaming of my holiday but I have been planning a packing list. Will have to start writing it down!

Was really warm in the night and I feel really warm now too - this is really bizarre October weather! Just as well really, the chap who's been painting the outside of the house wants to do my bedroom area next (I sleep in the garage! - Though it has been converted...) which means the door to the outside and the windows need to be open all day. He is hoping to finish all the work tomorrow. It is looking smart!

But, need to bath and then do the work thing.....

Have a good day ladies
