Increased dosage of tramadol = me being spaced out, need to let it wear off so i can drive to work :eek: otherwise im going to be looking at an expensive taxi ride there and back, but i can leave 20 past 11 at the latest to get to work on time.

Thing is, he likes to cuddle in, to the point he is almost choking me and I cannot sleep like that, but every time I moved him, he slithered right back across the bed again. I should just take him back to his own room but he is my baby and he will not always want to come and cuddle in with mummy :o.

Brings back memories of just how DS3 was. He's not got into our bed for a good while now, probably about a year, he's 8 1/2, so you are right it doesn't last.

PenPen hugs for your DD

Couple more emails to send, more washing to put on the line and then bedroom hoovering and dusting.

My mother is coming over later and after the telephone conversation we had early in the week I am so not looking forward to it
