do you get the giddies ?

Around 4pm everyday (as of late) I've been getting incredibly giggly (it's usually when I'm the most tired, but can't go to sleep). I laugh at things that aren't too funny.

So I'm having a humungo laugh about the first time I was asked to provide our local GP with a poo sample. I failed to see the little spatula as the ideal measurement for a stool sample, so I waited and collected baby poo until the vial was full...when I went to see about the results, the Doctor was very very curious as to how I managed to collect soo much poo.

I get extremely giddy and silly when i am tired, i say random things, which have, in the past, been known to get me in trouble, i do weird things, throw things around etc, cream cake was the last one at a colleague luckily he found the funny side :(

I manage to sneak a quick nap in most days ...... if i'm really tired, i will drop the boys at school and then once the youngest is back in bed for a nap, i put myself back in bed for a nap!

I usually gee myself up and manage to get through the day. Unless, of course, something goes wrong - I drop something, I kick the buggy wheel, I can't get the door open - and then I go into meltdown mode and get funny looks. With you on that, inearly best into tear whilst registering DS late for school the other day (DH had accidentally buggered off with the car seats!) and Th woman at the desk was really nice but mentioned I looked a little tired....trigger tears and a desire to hide from the world whilst eating chocolate :-)

sorry, I just get a massive pounding head ache and the desire to yell at everyone in sight. Gets especially bad on Thursdays... that happens to me around 2pmish. Everyday though, not just on Thursdays.

I didn't even know that there was a spatula in stool sample collection. I usually just put the poop into the vial with my own hands! <em>edited by AnonDubai on 21/01/2011</em>
