Just that really Smile

DH is working 6am until 2pm today, just me and the DC for the minute.
They are deep in a baby shark marathon, I'm procrastinating on here until I can be bothered putting the mountain of clothes away that have piled up all week.
Visiting family later, before going to get my nails done and DH is making burgers for tea.

What about you all?

Every one is still a sleep and I’m on MN scrolling with a cup of tea.

Dh is in the office for a couple of hours today then we will go for Sunday lunch.

I’m debating whether to get the paddle board out if it’s warm enough for my last go of the season Sad

DS and I have been awake since 7. He's had breakfast and we've been for a walk for some fresh air. Now sitting having my precious second coffee (am 6 weeks pregnant with DC2 and coffee seems to be the only thing I can stomach in the mornings) waiting for DH to wake up then we might wander over to the park or something later on.

Argument with dh who has stomped off.
I just want peace.
I’m on a night shift tonight, leave me the fuck alone.
So, atmosphere, silent treatment, he will be as awkward as fuck all day over everything now, so pretty shit really.
I’ll try to keep out of the way, make sure the kids are fed & ok, but just want to run away.

DP is fast asleep on the sofa. It was a busy night on the ambulance. I'll wake him in a bit to go to bed. DD playing Minecraft and telling me about it.
I'm going to sort all the uniform and name it all.
Then cook Sunday Lunch for about 5pm and wave DP off, for another night of 'fun and games'a- his description!

Also I'm online buying things for 'Operation Warm House this Winter'.
We live in a very cold Victorian cottage so I'm hunting down things to make it warmer, door curtains etc.

Waiting for new dishwasher after 7 week saga of terrible customer service and non repair from NAC Apliance repair (avoid like the plague). DH has just mowed lawn, DC3 still in bed. I’m back to school next week so am doing my usual house cleaning/gardening avoidance strategies. Am also going to start watching Season 2 of Harlots later.

Sitting in a day tent at Brands Hatch watching GT racing with 7yo ds2 on my lap, Ds1 and DH have gone for a wander towards the pit straight (and please god the coffee).

Only me and DS 2 up, he’s online with friends, Tesco arrived too early so I need to put it away. Having tea and watching Say Yes to The Dress. Having friends round later, gonna make a roast chicken dinner for about 5pm and have a movie night, try to get everyone to bed at a half decent hour. Have period pains from hell so want to take it easy.

None of us are out of pjs yet Blush DS1 is playing Fortnite, DS2 is playing with Lego, DH is on his phone and I'm MNing. About to take DC to get showered, then I'll get ready. Going to my parents for a Sunday lunch and looking forward to it! Will do a few bits round the house this afternoon - naming school uniform and tidying up/cleaning. Will watch a film tonight with DH when DC are in bed. Will also paint my nails! Might try to get out for a walk this afternoon too.

I fell off a two step ladder and landed on the corner of a freezer. Now in total agony -so not a lot except there is a series of groans and occasional yells.
Hope you are all managing to enjoy your weekend and remember - don’t go up steps unless you remember which step you are on !!

We're supposed to be building a new desk for DS's room but DH is feeling a bit queasy, so he's gone for a lie down while DS and I carted it all up to the loft. It's a two-man job and DS has slept funny on his finger Hmm so he can't help, so I'm just pottering around waiting for DH to feel better.
