Yes, frequently.

And I forgot to pay DD1's re-enrollment fees for gymnastics on time, so they may not have her back. In which case she will not speak to me possibly for about a year .

Have left a very, very grovelly message on their answerphone and hoping for a ring back soon pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease.

Me too, today has been hectic. Got loads to do tonight for work tomorrow and don't feel like doing any of it.

Too hot, bothered and tired to even stop MNing and get my stuff together and actually start the work.

Tidy
Random repetitive meaningless pointless items of housework.
Make dinner which oftern gets uneaten
MN like mad to escape
Doing beds tonight as DP stuck on a train due to fire on the tracks!

Horrible combination of swamped and boredom.
