Life before 10am.

Posted on March 10, 2012 by Jenelle

I am writing this at 10.10am.

Last night I was on the phone to mum, dad and Ev from about 7.30pm to 9.30pm.

At 9.40pm I fell sound asleep.

At 3am I was wide awake because of this –

That sound woke me up at 3.30am, 3.40am, 3.50am… this went on until 6am when I gave up and tossed and turned enough that I woke Bill up.

Then, I decided to call mum and dad (only people that I know that would be awake!) to rant to them about the alarm.

At 7am I decided I should do the housework that I skipped last night as I fell asleep early. So I was up scrubbing down the bathroom and toilet at 7am.

At 7.30am it was time to sort the laundry. Bill took it down to the laundry at 8am.

We had breakfast while we watched some Lindsey Buckingham on Palladia. I sorted through the mail from last night.

Dishes were put away, bed was made, then at 9.10am our building super was up to change our kitchen lightbulbs and deal with our bathtub blockage… of my hair. Even though we use a drain guard and everything. Ugh to living in old buildings!

In the meantime, Bill had put the washing in the dryer, I did some online banking. Bill also took the trash and recycling down to the basement.

Then it was time to fold and put the washing away. I did this while watching the Thursday episode of Days of our Lives.

I then did some work for Queen of All Saints. My big clog of hair was discovered at about 9.50am and at 10am I was back, scrubbing the bath down again from all the dirt and mess that was made.

And now – Bill is baking bread while I am doing this.

That alarm? Apparently it is from the door that gives access to the roof. Someone was up there last night and it has only just stopped blaring.

I think there will definitely be a nap in order this afternoon!
