4.30am, Day Off, Sunday 6th May.

Well, here I am. 4.30am on a day off, just about to go through the door having had a phone call last night been called into work because of staff shortages. I'm working 6-9 am (ish)

So that's spoilt my only proper day off this week. Although it's only a 3 hour shift to act as a bridge between 2 men on shifts, its going to be more like 4 and half hours after travelling time.

So that's basically ruined my days start. I was going to spend the day in the garden after washing the cars.

The Teenage One returned home from a sleepover last night, and promptly kept me awake until 12.30 with the telly on loud. Banging on her bedroom wall normally suffices in such circumstances, but last night it didn't work. She was watching Sky in the front room.

I had to get up to sort it out, found that she'd fell asleep in front of the telly. Took great pleasure in waking her up, to advise her of the error of her ways, before turning the telly off. Bad Dad! And I so wanted to do the hoovering at 4.30am this morning, you know, that bit of carpet by the settee where she's fallen asleep!

Nothing much more to tell really. Finished Friday night shift at 7am yesterday, and the first day off is spent adjusting from working nights to being a "normal" human being on days again. So I never do much on Saturdays after finishing nights.

Okay, got to go.
