Welcome onebrokelady.
I didn't sleep well last night, I often don't on a Sunday night, I think I'm worried about the alarm not going off.
I was anticipating a better night tonight but somebody had other plans, I received an hysterical phone call from a terrified family member and had to phone 999.
The police arrived quickly and seem to have resolved the situation.
Sleep is now hours away!!!

Hester I've given up too...DH has driven off to somewhere for work...rang my phone around an hour ago & left a message to say he's left the window in his office open & his laptop on the desk...other house unlocked, window closed, laptop shutdown, other house locked up again, book opened!

I would have worked from home tomorrow & gained an extra 90 minutes in bed but I have a meeting I need to attend...might come home after that...

Still waiting for the sandman here, I have to be up in a couple of hours to get CHS to work.

The last time I looked at the clock it was 3.40am ...the alarm went off at 6am...it's going to be a long day

Pooches got me up at 06.00, now thinking about bed again :rotfl: erk to the heat though!

I'm going to bed relatively early because next doors dog is let out at 10 at night and always screams its way down the garden, which wakes me up and then at 5 in the morning every day we get a repeat performance which wakes me up and I don't normally get back off again then. It's impossible to shut windows in this heat so I guess until we cool own that's going to be the pattern. Not good!

You all had a busy night. I was awake until about 2 ish, but didnt try to come here because there's usually no one around except softstuff and I can't bore her every night.

Welcome Onebrokelady. Listen very carefully to what Polly says about your chooks and Mar. Fort Knox? Pshaw! (I've always wanted to write that and now Ive done it several times as Tablet wasn't happy) We love chooks. As soon as we hear about them we start thinking fondly of straw, and eggs, and giving them amusing names, and building a roost so that they can watch telly through the window..............and Mar will be making bread sauce and shuffling things around in the freezer to make a space between the leftover bits of heffalump and camel burgers. We love her dearly but wouldn't trust her within a thousand miles of anything with four legs or wings. I keep my Dragon chained to me, having both four legs AND wings, but as she has a nasty habit of eating my posts she would give Mar the horriblest indigestion so justice would be served.

Morning all. I once had a student staying with me who was on my wave length and we conversed in newspaper headlines. Given a spell of hot weather like this we would race to be the first to say "PHEW, what a scorcher!"

Weather report over.

Today housework will be done on a spirit-moves basis. I will tell you later what, if anything, the spirit has moved me to do.
Just now I need COFFEE.

THOÙGHT FOR TODAY

Any day above ground is a good one.

Sounds like a few of us did not sleep. I posted last night but I don't know what happened to it. Must have gone where Monna's posts go.
