I always note the time that coments are made and am flabbagasted to see some of you get up before 6am and type away. In our house our 2 girls aged 3 and 4 get up around 6.30am and then they sleep with us till 7am. No-one gets out of bed before 7am unless hubby is working an early shift. How on earth do you poor mums have such a long day? i know with our girls we have a 2 hour sleep during the day. Just found it interesting that some of you get up so early.

Best Wishes Blond.

Its not interesting its easy!!!!!!!

My name is Helen and I am a Minti addict!!!
I wake up in the morning and I have to have my fix to get me through the day, I can't walk past a computer anymore I just have to stop and log in.
Also a lot of my best friends here, chose to live the other side of the world from me just because I kept begging for another go on Minti! So if I want to talk to my friends i find myself sitting for hours looking at a blank screen willing time to go faster so my friends will log on!!!!!
Even before I go to bed at night/morning I have to have another Minti fix just to help me sleep!
My poor dog is called Misty but in my confusion sometimes when I have been too long without the computer, my dog will also answer to Minti!!!!!!

LOL Yep I know I have totally lost the plot!!!!!!!!!

On msn, my friends and family list consists of 6 addys - 2 of which are the private addys of people on minti. my minti friends list consists of 21 addys...

My email list consists of 5 friends and family, 5 business/school addys, and about 20 minti friends...

My mobile phone has just as many minti members phone numbers as all other phone numbers put together.

When I log onto MSN I might get to talk to someone that isn't on my minti friends list about once a month... if I'm lucky... but I get to talk to someone on Minti every time I log on.

Every time I write something for school I stop and think, "Could I convert this to a useful advice for Minti?" I even made one of my school projects a promotional magazine article for Minti.

I might not look active with blogs and comments and the like, but I'm here every day, and some times when I have nothing better to do, I'm here all day and night.

I don't go out and socialise anymore, because I often need to find a baby sitter to do that. I don't need a babysitter to be on Minti. The only exception to that is when I'm visiting other minti members.

Minti isn't my addiction. Minti is my life! LOL

I can't break the  rountine of getting up early . as i done shift work over the years . so i am up at 4:00  . so i jump  , while the kids are in bed . i call this time my time , as though the day i haven't much time to myself  and the kids get home form school , i don't get a chance to come on line until 6:30 or 7 that night . Then i call it anight arond 11 or sometimes earlier 10:30 .

Umm... yeah... I'm guilty. It's 3:30am here now... I usually only sleep for 2 to 6 hours a night at best, averaging 4.... But... it isn't that time everywhere in the world... and not everyone is in the same time zone. If I want to find my mate Nell floating around Minti I need to be here really early in my morning because it's her evening where she lives.

I think you'll find that will explain most of it.

i am not too sure if i have made any comments etc real early but i do get up at about 5.30 am as i have buggered up back and it hurts to lie in bed too long, but i find that i have two hours of uninterrupted computer time every week day before 7.30 when the day starts for the rest of the family, and with all the kids in this house and only one computer two hours is gold! we seem to get to bed about midnight or half past most nights and Cherine is up and down all night to the kids (i just sleep through it!)so its also nice to be able to get up before her so she gets a couple of hours in the morning where i will see to the kids if they wake up early (as with garbage day!) but if the two littlest go to sleep in the afternoon when the others are at school we occasionally take a nap in the day time for an hour or two,(tomorrow is Sunday and I'm sleeping in till 7 if all goes well!!)Ian:)

 I hit minti before 6:30 a.m on most working days. I'm usually awake from 5 anyway to hop on the instrument of torture (exercise bike) for bout 1/2 hour by that time miss 7 is awake then it's breakfast, shower, minti, get ready for work and then out the door!!! Speaking of which, have to start work at 7:30 a.m so time for this chicken to go to bed . good night one and all, sleep tight (or just stay right where you are, I know I would hee hee)

My dh leaves home at 5.45 and my daughter normally get up and hops into bed with me and wakes me at around 6.15.  Only my youngest has a sleep during the day, my kids are normally in bed at night by 7 - 7.30 and my dh gets home around 8.30 so by the time I wind down and spend some time on here and with my dh I don't normally go to bed before 12am. Long days, always tired but once a week normally on a Sunday I will go to bed early to catch up before I have to do it all again.

I'm up at 5am, but for an hour I'm usually having a shower and spending time with my daughter. I jump on Minti when she is having breakfast and getting dressed.  She doesn't have a daytime sleep at all so I'm not usually on here through the day except on weekends, but that's usually in the middle part of the day too when Hannah's having her craft time. The craft table is right next to the computer table so I flick back to Minti every so often, do some typing, then turn back to my daughter.
