I was going to be in chat last night but I only lasted until 11pm (9pm NSW). But it turned out to be the best New Years ever! I got a full whole 7 hours of uninterrupted sleep! That has happened maybe 2 or 3 times in the last 3 years!

JM, I hope you start feeling better soon xx

I think W has overdone it on the bike - riding for 2-3 hours every day since Christmas so today he has had an enforced break. Actually he got it confiscated by his very loud and irritating behavior lol. I think he needs a bit of recovery time because his behavior has gone way downhill over the last week. Not sure if it is because he is so tired from all the bike riding, because DH is home all day or because of the dog but I am hoping he gets over it soon.

BTW, how messy are kids!!?? I knew that Chimmy cleaned up after them quite a lot, but I had no idea how much! I am forever picking up bits of food from everywhere now

Trill, your new pup looks adorable!
