Amen to this fellow insomniac!
May quality sleep be in our VERY near future. x
4:15 every morning for me – bolt upright. The only think that reset my body clock for a short time was a bout of gastro and I don’t wish that on anyone
Oh, that’s not a very good cure. What time do you go to bed?
I am usually in bed by 8:30 thank goodness and asleep around 9. I do enjoy the early wake up so I can get some P&Q before the crazy hits
I’m about the same, which is fine. I’ve never really been a night owl. I’ve tried stretching it out until 10/11pm to see if that makes a difference, but it doesn’t. Maybe this is just our lives now?
Yep I think so LOL. The other night I had a fellow student come over and was up until 11:30pm. That morning I slept in until 4:30 :O.
Oh how I hear you about pregnancy insomnia – what’s with that? My daughter woke up at 11.30pm last night, and I didn’t get back to sleep until around 3.30am…. then she woke up at 5.30am. Not sure how much longer I can survive on bits of 2 and 3 hour broken sleeps!! My wish list would definitely have a beautiful 6 hour solid sleep, a cup of tea made for me, a deliciously soothing candle, a day off washing / vacuuming / dishes / etc and a yummy breakfast 🙂 A x x
What a great list…I would just add a perfect cup of coffee served to me!

This is THE perfect list 🙂
I’m happy this year to be doing The Mothers Day Classic walk for breast cancer research
I’m going to make a donation too. You’re my inspiration Donna. You inspire me to appreciate life, soak up as much life as I can and love my family. Thank you for being such a beautiful gift in my life. x
My list is pretty close to your list. Sleep… more than four hours in a row. Massage…same reasons as you. One day of not having to feed the family, that includes them not asking what is there to eat and what should I cook? Someone other than me to do the night time pick up of all of the toys. One whole day free from stress…this is harder to give/achieve when I am a combination of a stressy person and OCD. If they want to buy me something I would love tea from T2 or some more herbs for the garden
My kids seem to believe cushions belongon the floor. They walk up to both couches and push them all off… It drives me NUTS!! Maybe for Mother’s Day I should ask for all cushions to remain on couches for a full day. Ah, what a dream!!
My wish list is like yours…..quiet time, good food, me time and a clean motorhome. Is that too much to ask for in one day?
Surely not! 🙂
I’d give you a massage if we lived closer!!!
Oh, if we lived closer I’d be getting the works – don’t you worry. I’ve dreamt about it often. 🙂 Lucky people of Hervey Bay. 🙂
Just want to let you know i am a total cushion OCD person and my husband is exactly the same..cushions rule! x
This year we will be on our last day of our first family vacation so I dont expect much more than that…. however I absolutely love the first two items on your list. My perfect day would be sleeping in until I wanted to wake up and than sometime later in the day go get a professional 1 hour or longer swedish massage. I am sure anything after that would be bliss .
Yes please, I’ll take any one of these in a heartbeat! x
Tea and Vegemite toast in bed AND ten minutes peace to enjoy it. Alone. 🙂
I cant think of another thing to add to your list……all I can say is ME TOO!
