Scheduled Post Shocker!


Morning Fluffers!

I'm gonna let you in on a little secret. I'm not a morning person. This is mainly due to the fact that that I stay in The Bat Cave until way past Stoopid O'Clock each night. And also, because while all you normal folk have your deepest sleep about 3am, I swim against the tide and have mine around about 6am. I'm telling you, I'm not for waking at that time of the day.

You'll notice that most of my posts go live fairly early on (I said early on, not early!) in the morning. This causes something of a conflict as I like to wake gently, with a cup of tea (in the pink cupcake mug) presented to me, about 15 minutes before I have to think about lifting my Little Princess head off of my nicely fluffy feather pillow! :)

To allow for this procedure to happen, (and bad things happen if my routine is messed up... We just watched a police programme and these people got arrested about 6am in their beds. No, no, no. Police, if you want to bust me, I need written notice and time to do my hair.) and the fact that at that point of the day, Sweet Cheeks claims he hasn't been fed for three years and if it ain't nailed down, will eat it, I schedule my posts!

Now, where was I going with this? Oh yes, so, although you are reading this tomorrow, I'm writing this tonight. (Paradox? Not really, I'm in FayeWorld and we all know about that time difference!) Today, which is your yesterday, I've had a very, very intensive day of highly testosterone fuelled Toddler Taming, and I'm sitting here, running a temperature, my body aches like I have the flu and my brain aches like I've just watched five hours of Cbeebies! Please tell me one of us in going to break soon. And that it won't be me?! ;)


So, Wednesday morning, in all Universes, means time for a new Challenge over at MMCS Challenges, which this week, is sponsored by MMCS. (You have to check out the scrummy new stock over there. Baggage Control is getting a major spankage right now!) We'd like to see Pearls and Swirls. Hop on over for all the details and to have a peek at the faberoony creations from the rest of the DT...

I'm off to nibble on a slightly warmed croissant with apricot jam, served to me by semi naked man candy. Now, was that last night, or this morning?! ;)

What a perfect CAS card! Mind you, I also rather like the thought of the croissant-man candy combo... Feel for you re. the toddler taming - been there - but it does pass. It SO had to be a woman who invented red wine and chocolate. xx

Ali said...

Hi Faye,
I can tell you for sure that things will go for the better when sweet cheecks grows older, reading about your day makes me think back on when my kids where smaller (they are 7 and 9 now)I remember the hectic days, nights with no sleep at all, ... but it all happened long time ago !
It's approx 14:30 in the afternoon on wednesday, I have worked this morning and the small one is upstairs playing on the V-Smile and the big one is watching DVD's as it's raining, and I have time to relax and blog a little ! Trust me, better times are coming !
In the meanwhile, hang on there !
I love your card, makes me think of cookies ...
Hugs
Margo

That doppleganger is back! Don't worry about your sweet cheeks battles - they only go on for another 11 months at this level and then things calm down to mere hysteria for the next 25 years! Hugs, Lesley
