Staying up tonight - be honest!!

Post by Stressed?Moi? »

Just wondering if anyone is staying up tonight/getting up in the early hours to check their inboxes for you know what. I'm not to be honest (although I probably won't sleep!), but two of my friends are.

Not on purpose...

The email will be delivered to my phone which will be beside the bed... So should a child wake me during the night (inevitably!) then I won't be able to resist checking!!

Probably also staying up, at least for a while, as Lynne said - won't sleep if I go to bed :roll:
Trying to decide between wine or tea ??????? Or maybe hot chocolate & cosy dressing gown :lol:
Best wishes to all, those who can sleep and those who can't, and may the morning bring a sense of pride for all, regardless of score!

hello all
Will probably stay up for a while at least and I'm thinking wine but might be tea by the time midnight comes. Do you think they send in alphabetical order or by school or just randomly? very best of luck to you all, I'm feeling a bit anxious and I know I'm not alone in that. I've been checking in on the forum regularly this week and glad of the support so thanks folks.

I think I will check shortly after midnight then go to bed and wait til morning.

I have a fear that I may be up all night waiting otherwise!

Good luck everyone

This is the first time I've posted. I've spent the week thinking yes, no, yes, no..... I just haven't got a clue what will happen tonight but am trying to prepare myself for all eventualities. I'm so proud of my DD for doing all that tutoring and being so calm on the day - she really enjoyed the whole thing! She missed loads of questions at the end of paper 1 and didn't guess them so...... I don't know. I will, however, be unable to sleep. If I don't get anything after a while I will go to bed (with the ipad next to me) Absolute best of luck to you and your DC.

Good fortune to everyone! I don't think I could have managed without the forum this week.

I have a medical condition that keeps me waking up about 12 times a night all year. Don't know how I shall manage each time I wake tonight. Just hope mine arrive early on so I don't have to keep deciding whether to check.

Crikey bombdabah, how can you manage to wait?
I think I need to see it first so I can be ready for DCs reaction.

How about "diligent" for the D of DCs?
