What are you up to tonight?

[Mundotothemax]

DH and I are having some problems and he’s gone to his parents.

The DCs and I have just had a takeaway on the sofa while watching Netflix (first time we’ve ever done this ) and I’ll be sorting them out for bed in a bit.

Then what? The house is a mess, but I’m not sure whether cleaning is a good use of my time. Ironing? Meditation? What do people do on Saturday nights when they’re tired, worn out and world-weary, and have a big week (alone) to prepare for?

Have a glass of wine, get some of your favourite food and just chill the fuck out OP. It sounds like you need some you time. Get a face mask, do a mini manicure, pop some crap tv on or a feel good movie. Just do whatever you want certainly not cleaning, it'll still be there in the morning and reeelaaxxx.

We we're supposed to be going to a housewarming party but I've got a little cold, and DP has been building his shed all day and neither of us can be bothered really. It'll be an easy meal and a cider on the sofa for us too.

I am scanning archive materials, accompanied by creepy pastas and gin.
DH is away on business - he's just phoned to tell me what he had for dinner (insert green face of envy here).
DS has a friend over for an extended gaming session. I told them to make themselves pizza, when they feel like it. So they are out of the way.
DD is in bed with fever - she caught the bug that is going round.

So - all very quiet.

Enjoy having a quiet evening op. Time away from your oh gives you a bit of breathing space from all your problems for a bit.

You put your feet up, grab the remote, watch whatever you want, have an early night and get a good night's sleep.
I also eat cheesecakes.. lots and lots of cheesecakes.. all to myself.. 😂

DH has gone to collect a takeaway. We'll have that then watch the Xfactor and The Bodyguard from last week. Wine will be consumed too.

I agree with others OP, do what YOU want to do ND have some time to yourself to relax.

I need to do some serious cleaning/tidying. Which I should have been doing all day.

I'm waiting until it's dark to walk up to Aldi. I can't be bothered to wash my hair and I've just decided to do Scouse (Beef/lamb stew) tomorrow. I'll get the crusty rolls fresh from the Lidl in the morning.

Hope things with DH work themselves out soon, op.

I've just poured my first massive g&t. In laws are over (they're lovely) and we've just ordered a curry. Youngest DC just gone to bed and oldest is staying up with us as a treat. Pretty much a perfect Saturday night

@Birdsgottafly That stew sounds amazing, do you have room for one more please? Will travel

Hope you sort everything out x

I’ve just lit the fire, pizza, homemade wedges and water then bed at 9 (supposedly). I have a 20 mile run at 6am😨

Oh I did my 1st scouse of the winter on Tuesday 💕 love it!

Am not feeling well so tucked up with a few ready made gins in front of the fire watching the AJ fight on box office

Ooh I have some gin around here somewhere

Decided to iron a few things now the DCs are in bed, watching Obsessive Compulsive Cleaners to reassure myself that the house really isn’t that bad! I’ve not had a chance to iron my clothes for about a month so am grabbing the opportunity now it’s here.

I made myself do one job (empty the washing machine and put clean clothes away), helped with a glass of wine, then take away, strictly and more wine! It's been a long and tiring week.

Well I'm currently sitting on the couch watching Harry potter, I've just ate 2 kitkats and 3 viscounts like a disgusting pig! Neither of my kids like Harry potter so they are in their room playing with the neighbours kids. I have a pile of dishes and some tidying to do, can't go to bed without it done it's like a compulsion and it's a bit annoying really. I love nothing more that chilling at the weekend.
Hope things work out for you OP whatever happens.

Im currently in hospital in loads of pain and a heroin addict has just been moved into the bed across and is kicking off because her methedone is not due till the morning great night in eh lol xx

Had take away with the kids earlier, now they're in bed so me and dh have lit the fire and are watching a film eating sweets. I've also just booked to see Father Christmas. Going to try Quarry Bank Mill this year.

Kids in bed sleeping, I'm going to get nice and cosy on the couch in my fluffy pjs with DP and watch the die hard boxset for the 100th time whilst eating loads of sweets and rubbish my idea of a perfect Saturday night

Going to bed soon, up at 5am for work

In bed with DH doing online shop whilst he lets out silent but dealy farts.
I have ejected him.
It really stinks. Think I might vom

@princesspeppax
The die hard box set - now that is an idea. if I can find it...

Started binging The Mentalist.
Hope things improve OP.

I am sat in A&E with D's waiting to see another doctor about the cut on his face. This is the third A&E we have been in today.

I am very grateful for the treatment and care we have received. But now we are both tired and hungry and want to go home.

Had bangers and mash with plenty of fried onions about an hour ago for dinner

Now lying in bed with dp watching Netflix and gonna eat chocolate and popcorn! 🍿

THIRD? @DeadZed
