Random Irritations

Why does my son get up at 6:30 on a weekend and 7:30 on a school day???? I would love a lie in

We’re due out at 9am this morning and, as usual, Mrs Hobbit set the alarm for 2 hours before. Her reason being it takes a good while to ‘come round’ and then get the make up on. 7am!! I surfaced 15 mins ago, 45 mins to get out the door.

My wife is the same, lies on the bed after a hot bath demanding sugary tea to get going.. lack of discipline! For me it’s alarm goes, get up and start at full pace, but the wife makes the days longer.
 
Because he's looking forward to the day at the weekend?
My guess is he's still quite young - once he hits puberty you'll have trouble getting him up before 11.00
Yup he is 9, we have been lucky my brothers boys and our friends kids were up at 5am .. I have to say I am looking forward to this point in time. I can slip off for the morning weekend roll up knowing they both won’t complain ( of cause they will see this positively as I won’t be starting up the lawn mower at 8:30 ??)

You've obviously brought him up wrong... my dad always loves to tell people how when I was a kid he used to have to prod me to wake me up on Christmas morning. Never been a morning person. :ROFLMAO:

That is strange because we do have to wake him up on Christmas Day.. all the excitement that school starts up really tired them out. I am happy but the wife wants to get up early as well .. then is grumpy after lunch ??
 
Twins asleep in kitchen for their nap

10 mins in and youngest is coughing like a trooper, worried she might chuck up

So bring her in

Wide awake not a cough since lol

City fiber, turned up Thursday morning with no warning, closed the road, no access in our out, dug the road up, left a mess not finished the job and buggered off sat afternoon. Not been back since, couldn't go to golf yesterday as I couldn't get out or the driveway. Big hole down the middle of the road.:censored:

I wish Jurassic Fibre would do that on my road and get things moving. They told me it would be available in Jan 21, and I've been waiting since Feb to get connected. Grrr.
 
You're lucky that she's only grumpy after lunch :mad:
To be fair she’s pretty miserable all the time , and loves issuing orders … despite being told she is a fun sponge and like her mother, this behaviour seems to persist.. any help on that front would be greatly appreciated.
Is there a telephone line she can call that has someone submissive at the other end saying “yes princess “ ?

Thing is what they are offering is almost double the price of non fibre, we don't want it at that price neither does anyone else around here tbh.

I think 90% of the blokes on this forum or looking for a working answer to this question! :LOL:
 
People who spill coffee in the office and just leave the mess for someone else to clean up.
Same goes with any mess

My fav is when they open dishwasher find it full of clean stuff and don't bother unloading

Or worse .. find it full of dirty and can't be bothered to press start

You sound like you have met my wife if you add to that having an empty dishwasher and still putting her plates on the worktop.

I've very much taken ownership of our dishwasher .. load it after every meal whilst she deals with the girls or goes to rest of an evening

Empty it every morning playing hold back the toddlers .. who have become like the raptures in Jurassic park ...distracting and sneaking up ..
