Wonderful hubby returns from the States tomorrow and frankly he sounds a state. On the phone earlier, the poor chap likened it to working the night shift. He's never been that adaptable to new sleeping patterns and places and even travelling business class didn't seem to make it any easier for him....... I told him that he should have drunk more champagne!
I actually count one of my special talents as being able to sleep pretty much anywhere, through anything. In fact I really did sleep through an earthquake once whilst in Nepal. The first i knew about it was a report in the Kathmandu News the next day..... hmm, at least I know the earth moves in other ways :)
It's been both a lovely but tough week. Seb really does know exactly how to take advantage of me whilst Daddy is away. Obviously he only does it because I let him, but he's getting quite cheeky with it too - "Mummy, I NEED to watch Lazy town, now".
Tomorrow morning will see the putting up and decorating of the Christmas tree as a surprise for Dave. I hate Christmas decorations. To be fair, i'm not exactly a fan of Christmas and all the other associated faf. I don't mind others being excited and going on about it - just please don't expect me to join in! Last year Dave gave me a very stern warning that 2007 would be the last year that we didn't bother with the whole decoration thing. For the record, stern warnings are rare in chez Tomley so I listen to them very carefully!! Anywho, i'm going to get Seb involved and hope the tree doesn't end up on his head :(
I'm not sure that he knows Daddy will be home tomorrow as i've tried not to be confusing about it in case the plane is delayed or the taxi driver can't find Southampton (turn left at the airport.) but it'll be interesting to see who gets cross about not having my attention first. Mind you, I could be wrong, they could spend the afternoon together and I could get the afternoon off........ fat chance!!
