    Not feeling to great at present. Poorly relative had a bad turn on Sunday night so I was at the nursing home from 3 to 5am. I couldn't get back to sleep when I got home and I'm a creature that really needs 8 hours a night. I'm ratty with the kids and snappy with DH and he's really been fantastic (hangs head in shame). Why is there alway payback when you've been enjoying yourself:confused:

    DD3 is at nursery all day today so I'm going to wrap the mountain of christmas presents hidden around the house. It's going to be a long haul but will give me a better idea of what I still need to get.

    Will try to get to tennis this afternoon but feel so wretched. I know if I go it will lift me as I love it but it's really hard finding the effort to put on my trainers.
