Watching War of The Worlds (Tom Cruise version) and wondering if the tooth extraction I had on Saturday is going dry-sockety.

Having dinner and a night in a hotel celebrating our 35th wedding anniversary.

Just finished a lovely roast beef dinner with apple crumble and custard for afters. It’s been a grey, wet afternoon and I had to do some work in preparation for tomorrow so I’m about to go and have a nice hot bath then have a glass of wine and watch the next episode of Dept Q on Netflix.

This sounds sooooo idyllic

Went to collect a beautiful mirror from FB Marketplace and hat should have taken me 30mins max, but took me over an hour and a half - sat nav and messenger decided to be unhelpful. Now on sofa watching ‘medical telly’ with my Labrador snuggled in next to me. Utter bliss.

Just finished batch cooking and now enjoying a glass of wine while the torrential rain continues outside (all of the drains here are flooded - even crossing the road you wade through water here). Also a few people have pointed me to a job on LinkedIn tonight that I am seriously considering applying for... I am happy where I am but the money is heaps better, I know some of the people already and my job will come to an end when our organisation closes in 2028. So am seriously pondering...

Good luck if you do decide to go for the new role 🤞🏼

How did you manage this, did you rub a magic lamp or gain a fairy godmother?

I'm not exactly sure, but it's marvelous 🤣

Oh wow, show please?

Im watching The Girlfriend on Prime and waiting for a cherry clafoutis to be ready.

Bit of a naff photo sorry. It's my current hyper focus. And it's about 50% done.

Are you into reenactment?

I spent the evening in bed with a rather lovely man I've recently started seeing who I genuinely like and who is extremely skilled at sex. Now he's gone home so I've had some tea and toast and get the bed to myself for a good night's sleep. This might be actual perfection.

We had pork fillet with roasties, mangetout, lentils and apple, followed by Rhubarb crumble and custard. Then watched the inheritance.
DS has gone to his room. I'm watching the news with the end of my wine, DH is reading in bed.
Lovely evening

Crazycatladywithnocats · 14/09/2025 22:22

Just finished off the back piece of my current knitting 🧶 project. Going to look at Woolwarehouse website for some yarn for a baby jacket. My own project can wait a bit before continuing.

Best wishes for your treatment

Thankyou.

Relaxing in a nice bubble bath, with a soon glass of Prosecco and a handful of munchies 🍫

Busy week ahead, DD wants to go shopping before uni tomorrow, then
we take her back Tuesday, home Wednesday, blood test Thursday and chemo Friday. I will feel like shit next week, so enjoying my few days of feeling “ normal “ 😊

Best wishes for your treatment

Cruise with Ben & David have a new episode on tube, early night plans blown.
I have no desire to cruise ever and hate those huge ships but love watching that pair.

We had beef fajitas while our son listened to his tonies box in bed. He's fast asleep now.

Just watched a West Wing before having a bath. I'll go and watch something peaceful in a minute and my husband will have his bath.

All sorted for tmrw, everything is ironed, kitchen is clean. Looking forward to a cold fizzy drink before settling into bed.

On mumsnet, knitting and watching Only Murders in the building in my bedroom. I bought a projector as we didn’t want a fixed TV in the bedroom and it’s small and easy to put away. I think it will get lots of use in the winter.

Oooh. Can you link the projector? I’m keen on this idea for movie nights with the kids but don’t want a Tv. Do you cast from your phone?😊

I finally got a sewing area sorted out, I've got room to spread out and I don't have to put anything away. I've spend a few days at my sewing machine watching TV & listening to music with headphones on. Tonight and tomorrow are going to be too miserable to go out, so I'll be doing more sewing.

SouthernBelle21 · 14/09/2025 20:45

Watching the darts with one eye while finishing my book. Had to pop on laptop to do a couple of things and ended up on here, will be putting laptop down soon!

IzzyHandsIsMySpiritAnimal · 14/09/2025 20:44

Been out earlier. DC wanted to go out with a friend to a (very affordable) restaurant with a friend - they were both paying for their own food but we weren't sure if they'd allow teens in unaccompanied, plus it was pissing down so we took them, stayed and ate at a table the other side of the restaurant!
Dropped DC's friend home.
I'm not MNing and compiling quiz questions for an upcoming event.

MyAcornWood · 14/09/2025 20:44

4yo DS is fast asleep, 6mo DD is currently making a mockery of me and refusing to settle in her cot for the night so I’m feeding her to sleep… again. Sleep is a bit of a disaster with her at the moment, but like the weather, this too shall pass. It’s blowing a gale and hooning it down outside 🌧️ which is quite nice to listen to, with the window ajar.
