Went to bed late last night as was talking to a friend in need of advice on the phone. Set my alarm and conked out (until 3am when DD1 woke me wittering about strangers in the bathroom in her dream ). Every so often my phone beeps in the night when emails etc come through but I just ignore them. Anyway, the text message alert beeped at dark o clock, and I stirred and checked my phone, thinking that maybe a mindee was ill and I was being cancelled so would get a lie in.
No, the text was from mindees mum, asking of I was ok as I wasn't answering the door
Needless to say the alarm hadnt gone off so I ended up legging it downstairs, bleary eyed in my pj's
Luckily she thought it was hilarious and was chuffed that after 3yrs with me she had finally seen evidence of me not being organised Bless her though as she did offer to take mindee away again while I got ready (I refused of course and made use of cbeebies while I ran around getting sorted )
Anyone else done this? embarrassing or what! Think a more reliable alarm may be needed from now on!
