A bit of this and bit of that..........




What the hell the last couple of days I have had to have a 3hr nap, yes you read that right a 3hr nap and even then last night I ended up in bed again at 7.15pm which was also bloody annoying but I could not stay awake any longer............thankfully if I go to bed early like that Tim will take care of Leo till he settles down, at some point he came in and got into bed with me since when Tim came to bed he told me to move over but I couldn't as Leo was laying behind me. So we had to move him and of course that made him cry a bit, in fact he had a restless night and so did his nanna. From around 1am I could smell smoke and had a headache it is caused from my sinuses which is just annoying, I take after my mother she get the same problem.

Yesterday it was Little Leo's last day at the school starters program and he was such a good boy but when we got home from that it was midday and I was so tired that I went to lay down and the next thing I knew it was 3pm and Jessica was waking me up then she wanted to know when she could leave so she was gone by 3.20pm. Leo cried and carried on when she left not wanting his mummy to go but then he settled down.


Speaking of Leo I have been giving him egg flips for tea instead of fussing over him not eating whatever it was I cooked for tea..........now if you have no idea what a egg flip is it is a milkshake with eggs in it........Leo likes to have 3 or 4 eggs in his milkshake along with a banana and ice cream.


Back to yesterday when I got home at midday I found this bear sitting on my computer chair now his name use to be Big Ted but while I was out Sydney-May dragged him out from the kids bedroom and put him on my chair and told her mummy that it's name is "Luna", so it seems like Sydney has renamed him/her..................lol


Also while out visiting nanna this morning we ran into my Uncle Frank & Aunt Pearla and they gave me and mum a watch each this is a photo of mine, it was so unexpected and it is such a lovely watch........

  2. I am glad you are getting sleep- sometimes our bodies do what they need to do to stave off sickness. Little Leo is so cute, and your watch is lovely.

    1. Yes the watch is lovely and such a nice surprise, the sleeping thing is annoying but I know it is caused by the low iron and so not much I can do about it except sleep when I need to......

  3. You must need the sleep. Hope you're not coming down with something. Getting over, right? You're not getting solid sleep if you're up and down with Leo, though. No wonder you need a nap.

    Comfy looking bear and such a pretty watch. I wouldn't be able to sleep if I smelled smoke! Take care!! :)

    1. No I don't think I am coming down with anything just think it is the low iron........the bear is 22yrs old and belongs to Jessica.

      It is difficult to sleep when you can smell smoke even when you know there is no smoke or fire........

  5. I've yet to meet a kid who eats a variety of food. One of mine eats like 10 things in rotation and that's IT!
    Pretty watch!
    Get some sleep.

  7. Where was the smell of smoke coming from. I too have been struggling with sinus headaches because of the high ragweed pollen here in the middle of the US but thankfully not the needing extra sleep. Perhaps your body is still trying to recover from the flu that you had not so long ago. (I am remembering that you had something a few weeks ago, didn't you???)

    Rest up and hope you are getting back to normal soon.

    1. The smell of smoke came from who know where, there was no fire or smoke I could just smell it which happens when I have sinus problems. The need for sleep is caused by me being so low in iron.....

  8. Hi Jo-Anne. I agree, little Leo is such a cutie! What a surprise getting a lovely watch like that. I can imagine that you must have been very pleased! Perhaps you are not still fully recovered from your illness and that is why your body is telling you to sleep like that. Anyway,take care of yourself.

    1. Yes he is a real cutie and both me and mum were very happy with the watches.

      I think the need for a nap is due to me being so low in iron

    1. I use to have a nap every day before I got my C Pap machine but the last few years I have been fine until recently when I get just so bloody tire by the middle of the day......but I do think it is the low iron causing the tiredness....

  11. your life is so busy! i wonder if you need B12 or iron or something. love the little teddy bear in your chair.

    1. Well I know I need iron and as for B12 no one has said anything about that being low and they check the B12 levels when they check your iron levels so I think if that was low they would have said something.

  12. I want an egg flip. That sounds like I could actually get away with telling everyone how health it is... Right? Naps are great but they can be a bit annoying when it take up more time then you desire. :-)

    1. Yes right egg flips are healthy in my opinion with the goodness of milk and eggs and bananas are good for you too right......lol

      Didn't have a nap today but you can bet I will be in bed early tonight........

  13. Never heard of an egg flip, but it sounds similar to an egg nog. Naps can get away from you quickly. You think just for an hour and then that hour turns in to 3. Ah well... LOL
