Well, it’ll be closer to 5am once I post this I guess.

So. It’s 4.40am, Max has just had some milk, and I have yet to get any sleep.

Why? Cause I’ve actually been reading! I had forgotten how much I enjoy a good book. Maybe too much though since instead of going to sleep at a reasonable hour I stayed up to read, and ended up not being able to put it down till it was finished. Damn books… how dare they be so intriguing and fast paced!

The cat is currently going mental scurrying up and down the hallway, the Maxinator is squealing and gurgling to himself in his cot, getting quite a conversation going by the sound of it! The Toddler is fast asleep… for now… and the Husband is snoring quietly in bed and has been for the best part of, oh… 3 hours? :)

At least everyone seems to be peaceful, and I’m not actually complaining here - I’m not tired in the slightest. Not a clue how that worked, but I’m not! It’s getting light out, the birds are waking up, the cat’s trying to climb up the back of my chair, and I’m wide awake as if it were mid-afternoon or something. Of course in 3 hours when the day begins I’m gonna be shattered and asking J to get up with the boys, but still, for now it’s pretty peaceful. So for now at least, I’ve managed to get a little time for me. Even though it does mean feeling rubbish tomorrow and my sleeping patterns being a little funky… at least I had some time.

Ok… time for some sleep. I hope! I will edit in the title of the book once I can do that without worrying about waking up J in the process!

Night all. Or should I say good morning? There’s something for me to ponder as I go to get some sleep!

  1. Oh I love it when a book is that good!! My poor tired and shattered body doesn’t always…but I do :D In the process of writing my own book I totally forgot to READ any others. I’ve only recently re-discovered that joy, although my ’spare time’ to read is few and far between!!

    I look forward to learning what book it was that had you so enraptured!!

    (P.S. glad to see your old comment board back. I couldn’t figure out how to just comment on the other one so I have been too silent here :) )

  4. I’ve been staying up late reading Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Picoult. It’s so intense, it’s hard to fall asleep after reading!

  7. I do that a lot, whether it’s reading a book or blogs. It’s the only quiet time I get.
