YANBU. I did the same yesterday. Although it was pretty embarrassing when a salesman came to the door at 1pm and I was still in my PJs 😁

Think of all the times that you were woken at 5am by the DC.

This is your reward for those times.

Yes that's a good way of thinking about it. All those 3 am feeds and feeling like a zombie the next day. Now the pair of them are permanently attached to their beds during the holidays it's great Grin

I’m in my pjs watching tv and the view of the living room beyond my lap is nowhere near as clean and tidy as yours so i’d Say you’re ok!

I'm having a very similar day. Teenage DS is revising in his room, other DS is working and I'm doing very little. Not ashamed. Defiant.

Hahaha88 depends are you purring?

I am currently trying to fend off some kind of Pre-Easter cold, so have given myself permission to stay in bed with cat and iPad.

I'm in bed with the cat.
No photos because she's under the covers on my feet trying to hog the hot water bottle.
She approves enormously of my bed ridden state and has even brought sweaty hedgehog toy for later.

Yanbu 😊 on my day off in the week, I do the same when I can. More so if the weather is dire. Even better when the cat's on my lap.

My son is at holiday club, i came home from work early and i'm under a blanket watching fleabag eating a hot crossed bun. I wish my cat would come and sit on me to complete my happy moment 🤣

My moggy is ignoring me. I am on holiday and had many good intentions of doing stuff (and I have done some stuff this week just not as much as I was going to). Then I had a revelation! No bugger else in this house spends their holidays cleaning and painting so why the hell should I?

Instead, I have watched all the Star Wars films, in order. Just watching the last 30 minutes of the Last Jedi now. Then I reckon I've got 30 minutes until dd comes in from work.

I'm lying on the sofa with my legs up on the arm. In the gap between my legs and the seat there is a lakeland terrier, snuggled up to my bum, snoring.

In case of confusion, it's the dog that's snoring, not my bum.

Pretty sure it's illegal to remove a sleeping cat from your lap anyway. You're stuck there for a while I'm afraid, may as well make the best of it!

I'm planning a recce to the kitchen, see what I've got that can be a bed picnic.
