I can identify with this write completely, but then I'm only a sympathetic husband, who watched, supportively I hope, my lovely wife deliver two beautful girls into the world I was besotted then, and continue to be, but added to this, are 4 grandsons, and one delightful granddaughter who is very much more like her Aunt than her mum. Well done, I loved this journey with, great write and entry, good luck, blessings, Roy
Typo : I sought out advise. Advice?

Comment from Thomas Bowling
I've always been a night person. When most people are falling asleep is when my eyes pop open. So when I attended college and worked in a factory, the midnight shift was perfect for me. This is a very interesting story. It's well told without error.

I would most assuredly(,) be up and around during the chilly hours of the night. -comma not needed here :)
A northerner learns not to dottle on the loo from birth(.) I however, am a southerner--born and bred. - edit suggestion :)
I sought out (advise) - did you mean 'advice' or if you're from overseas, LOL...maybe that's the spelling ... hehe :)
Very interesting...I didn't see that middle coming, but yeah, it is a full-time LIFE CAREER and that's no lying. You handled it well it seems. And, you're a grandmother now so you get more on your initial investment than those who are actually clocking in day to day, LOL. Nice writing. Good pace, just a few tiny nits mentioned above. Your voice was as strong and steady as your writing and pace of the entry. I wish you well in the contest.
