What is your situation and what are you doing right now?

40 years old, in the South, still awake! I have lots of worries in my head and am thinking how to be strong.

I will try to make today a good day and take my toddler to the park, make a delicious meal and maybe treat myself. I probably should sleep first though!

Early 60s, just woke, fell asleep on couch, live on own, now watching altered carbon

Small ish southern town in the USA

Sofa; ice cream (3 tubs of Ben & Jerry's).

@ThatNaiceMember that's a lot of dystopia! 😵‍💫
@pestowithwalnuts sending you a hug. 💐
@Sunshineaftertherain1 do you have an exit strategy? 🤞

@swissmummy12345 @TheOriginalEmu
YVR/Vancouver. Sorry! YVR is faster and common shorthand here. 🤦‍♀️

It's still sunny, just going on for 4pm, dc slept almost 2 hrs each and I managed two coats of paint behind fridge and adjacent bit of wall under cabinet/above counter plus clean-ip. PITA to do it, and looks like it may need a light touch up, but will save that for another day.
Winning today!!!! 🤗

Unfortunately not. I'm a broken woman.

Late 30’s UK based just came up to bed having last scroll on phone then onto read kindle after binge watching the new clarksons farm episodes. Listening to DD snoozing on the monitor, fan on and rain pelting the windows 🪟

Yes (Yorkshire) and It's just nice on my back. I weight lift a lot plus have (non-age related)pain issues

Late 40s, in bed, as is DH who is asleep, I'm reading Mumsnet... Spent the evening watching early episodes of Handmaids Tale and drinking wine together. One child in Brighton at a friend's, two teenagers in bed, eldest child in bedroom probably working (works for an American company) ...Looking forward to doing nothing tomorrow (more Handmaid Tale?) before everything starts again on Monday 😁

Blessings to you both. We just had our 54th and feel so grateful to have my lovely man beside me ☺️

is there a backstory which makes him look slightly less of a prick?

I posted earlier about being in a budget hotel with 2 distinct groups, one blokes drinking lager, second bingo.

Bingo lot have definitely won, lager blokes nowhere to be seen and bingo lot graduated to karaoke. They were on I WILL SURVIVE when I went down just now! Probably some strawberries then cup of tea and bedtime. Can't concentrate on a film.

Mid-thirties, in Scotland, had a weed edible and a couple of glasses of wine with my partner and then we shared two pizzas. I was working today so I’m pretty knackered. Now I’m chilling out next to my snoring cats. A nice night!

Early 50's (that sounds weird now I've typed it, when did THAT happen I'm still early 30's in my head.) Live in West Berkshire No kids, not married "yet".... my wonderful other half is 12yrs younger and sat watching car shows on the telly. I've just finished a nice few glasses of wine while doing some painting. (Oils on canvas not decorating the house) I'm a truck driver so will be out at work early Monday away for a few days but the money is good and I like the freedom. Bought a nice new car yesterday kinda loving life at the minute..... Youth is wasted on the young 😎

Uk based, early 40s. Eldest daughter has a sports competition tomorrow which means 6am start so spent this evening rushing round making sure everything is ready for the morning. Haven’t stopped today and going straight to bed. Might manage 10 mins of reading before getting an early night!

Mid thirties, north west. 3dc are all out at sleepovers and have been gone all day. We've been out into the countryside with a coffee and good music for a drive today. Dh went to his hobby tonight, I went to the gym for an hour, showered, caught up on some tv. Dh has come home and soldered something on the laptop. He's in the shower whilst I'm scrolling, some good singalong music on, duvet has been brought downstairs and we'll probably watch a film or start a new series once he's out before a lie in tomorrow! Love late, summer rainy nights 😁

UK, late 40s, at home watching The Gorge (it’s a bit crap) with my husband and son (16) who both seem to be enjoying it. I’m happy 😊

Early 40s, I live in southern England but currently at my parents house, just over the border in south Wales.

It's so rural and quiet, I've just had a bath listening to the rain pattering on the skylight and I'm currently lying on my bed with their beautiful cat stretched out next to me.

My little boy is fast asleep, my husband is almost ready for bed and we are all full of roast chicken and pudding. A week together stretching ahead as it's half term.

Just about getting to mid 40s, having a glass of wine on a holiday trip to the south coast at a B&B (half term). DC is sleeping after a day at the beach, DH is having a shower and it's v quiet and the fresh air is almost too much for my tarry London lungs.

UK, early 40s.
Young adult child away with friends for the weekend.
My and DH took the younger to the cinema earlier than had a pick your own dinner (pizza for the kid, an omelette for DH and i had some fancy sausage rolls).
Then DH and DD played some Minecraft and now she's gone to bed (doubt she's asleep though!)

We are sat on the sofa, having a cuppa and watching that guy who runs/walks across the continents on YouTube. He's in New Zealand at the moment, visiting the set of where the Hobbit was made.

Tomorrow, DH is running a race and I'm doing some gardening if it doesn't rain, which it is right now!!!

Living in Lincs UK
Late 60's
Very recently widowed
Watching an re-run of Downton and had a crying do' at something on screen.
It doesn't take much to tip me over the edge at the moment.

(Very) early 50's, trying to understand how I am, still feel late 20's! In Dublin, watching Covert Affairs, husband beside me and our 2 fur babies stretched out on the bed wrecked after coming home from doggy day care.
Miserable soggy day here today but feeling very happy because we have friends coming for lunch tmrw and spent hours today tidying up the house so it actually looks good for a change! 😊😊

40’s, up north. Sat on the sofa having watched a lovely film with DD and polished off her final Easter egg as I couldn’t be bothered to go out and buy chocolate. Promised to buy her double the weight in replacement chocolate tomorrow. She’ll hold me to that.
She had loads of sweets and is bouncing on sugar still. She should be in bed but she’s so cute giggling on a call to her friends. It’s the holidays so she can stay up a bit longer and we’re both having a lie in tomorrow.

Early 40s, NW England. Partner is working abroad somewhere lovely for the weekend, DS is on holiday somewhere else lovely with his dad.

I’m chilling on the couch with our two dogs watching Emma (again). I’ve had a hard week at work and I need to retreat to the Regebcy period with dashing men and heaving bosoms.
