MUSH... AND MEN!

So, me brain in just mush this morning, and I'm thinking of throttling Stew... friggin man set his alarm for 6 so he could do some exercise before work, but did he get up? No, the pain let his alarm go off every 9 minutes till 6.45... THEN he got up! So, I was awake at 6.... the shit.


I am going to 'work' today at the Hospice Shop, have missed it very much.... feel bad about not going last week and leaving them in the lurch... but it could not be helped.


Today: kids to school, quick walk with Izzy then off to work. Let me reiterate... The move to Auckland is only a "maybe" at the moment, it depends on if Stew gets offered the job, and if we decide to accept it.... it needs to be offering a bit more $$$$'s for us to consider it, as housing is so much more expensive up there! I have been looking on the net and to get a semi decent house, we will need to spend in the vicinity of $650,000 !!! So, it's a bit scary!!!

  1. Why do men do that, if you bother to set the alarm then at least GET UP ours goes off every morning at 5.45 but I don't have to be awak at that time do I ?? and why does my body clock automatically wake me at the same time, but the male can sleep on............I wonder, anyway you have a good day at work can't wait to see what you buy hee hee, I just love shopping wish my wallet loved it to!

  3. Glad you got out for a walk yesterday, a bit of fresh air is what you need. This past week there's been a real cold bite in the air tho.

    Enjoy your day at Hospice. Hopefully you'll be on light duties.

  5. OMG $650k?? Where the hell are you looking? I grew up there (ducks flying objects) and still have family up there... My mum sold one of her properties recently for $375k and bought one for $440k.... So all depends where you are...
    I know what you mean about the alarm but it's in reverse... I'm usually up by 5.45... but the man sleeps on. Yet if he gets up early, the alarm goes off again... and again... Grrr. Men.

  6. Men are shits aren't they? Yesterday, on the only day Tara decided to sleep in until 6am, David set his alarm for 5am, went off to work at 4.30am, and the damn thing went off at 5am and woke Tara up on the ONLY day she was STILL ASLEEP at that hour! What shits me most, is that when I told him, instead of saying he was sorry, he just shrugged!!! Grrrr..

  9. My husband does that too. But I have gotten smarter than him.

    I set my alarm for him. I get up in the middle of the night to pee and turn his off. Hehe.

  17. arrrgh yes, Auckland house prices. I don't envy anyone trying to buy property there.
    If you do end up looking up there, remember to check out the home sell site. (private sales) Thats where I found my parents new house and its gorgeous. (not to mention about $50,000 less then if they had to go through an agent).
    I guess I shouldn't knock Akl house prices too much as we (thankfully) bought properties when they were a lot cheaper and renovated them for rentals then really landed on our feet when the market shot throw the roof.
    I love property and think I almost have some good news on the farm. (but don't want to blog it yet until I receive official notification but I think it might finally be over)
    Now I can start looking for a rental. (aka, my next project,,,, lol, guess I'm a sucker for stress)

  18. what part of sit still and do nothing do you not get?... :)

    seriously though... what you've been through and still could with excessive bleeding etc.. you should be sitting still and not doing anything a whole lot more..

    believe me... it takes time for the body to rebuild up and that happens best when you're RESTING... so REST WOMAN... :)

    PS Iron injections and B12 injections are not pleasant.. BUT they do help the body rebuild faster.. so maybe you should consider it IF YOU'RE NOT GOING TO SIT STILL AND DO NOTHING :)

    PSS this opinion has been expressed with love.. and concern..

  24. Men hate here as well. DS still on summer schedule getting to bed at 2:40 in the morning when he needs to get up at 6:30. It's like trying to wake the dead. Silly bugger.

    You're salt shaker looks like a sugar dispenser. By the way I love salt too "Sea Salt" is my favorite.

    Geez I do hope you are alright and nothing bad is going on down there!

    Please relax, I know it is a difficult request, but do take it easy. Hope all is well. See you tomorrow.

  26. Haha, my alarm goes off at 6am everyday so that I can have my 'coffe hour' of me-time, then get out the door for a run by 7. I'm sure it drives the mister nuts as he gets up much later.

    Chris - I can't believe this ordeal you're going through with your lady parts. I hope it all gets sorted out, no fun at all!
