Been up for 40 hours! And STILL not flaked out!! Good grief, I hardly EVER work nights these days and I was SURE I would NEVER stay awake, but I did, then I thought I would NEVER stay awake this afternoon and here I am (somewhat pickled, but having had the BEST afternoon and evening I've had for absolutely AGES!! And I'm STILL feeling fine! Barbecues were always something I used to mention to ex, tell him who to invite then I would be in the kitchen, this time it was just me, and it was brill!

Anyway, 40 hours and 9 minutes (the nine minutes were to correct typos - not sure if that's the wine or the lack of sleep!!)

 

Night night everybody! :D

Hope you have a good kip Becky 8)

I find one nights work is not a problem - I can cope with staying up all night and carrying on, as long as I get to sleep the next night! :D

 

 

Oooooh, you are SO right, if I'd have had to go back tonight I'd have been a gonner! As it is, I can feel the munchies then bed coming on! :D

I hope you had a great sleep and feel really refreshed today.

 

Gosh! you've got stamina!

 

I find when I'm on the go doing exciting things and with activity I don't feel sleepy - it must be the adrenaline or something... however, if the work is boring or repetitive I'm dying for a nap mid afternoon! :oops:

 

Well done in keeping all the plates spinning. I hope you have a great weekend.

:)
