I'm mumsnetting, while watching DD play on the Sims, and waiting for DH to cook my dinner.
I should be marking.
I want to be out somewhere on a walk, but it's raining very heavily and it's very windy, so I'm not going to do that until the weather's nice maybe May?

Annandale · 13/10/2018 18:13

Am on the sofa mning feeling knackered.
Should be making dinner, feeding the cats, doing some pathetic attempts at housework.
Want to be in bed.

But it's nice because the reason im so tired is i did an all-day art course with friends, it was fascinating.

Dljlr · 13/10/2018 18:13

I'm watching crap TV.
I shouldn't really be doing anything. I've worked all day on my day off today to be ready for Monday because my job in untenable without such sacrifices.
I would like to be shagging my boyfriend but I think he's lost interest in me.

Watching sea rowing in the almost dark. I should be driving home (practise started very late). I'd like to be in bed asleep.

hellokittymania · 13/10/2018 18:18

I am finishing my Starbucks pumpkin spice latte and watching 22nd July on Netflix. It's really sad in some parts.

I should be trying to finish my conference presentation.

I would like to be in a very nice swimming pool.

festiveissues · 13/10/2018 18:21

Should have been tidying and cleaning
Baby ds is poorly so instead he slept and fed and I slept too
Dh did the cleaning and had made a lovely dinner and got me chocolates 😍

probablynotthesame · 13/10/2018 18:23

I am just about to clear the dinner table but mumsnetting instead
I should be running my DC3 bath, washing up the dinner things and wiping the kitchen down
I wish I was sitting on the balcony of a luxury hotel room in Italy drinking a large glass of red wine and smoking a cigarette (I haven't smoked for 4 years and would never go back to it!!)

AnElderlyLadyOfMediumHeight · 13/10/2018 18:26

Drinking wine and listening to REM's 'Imitation of Life'.
Tidying up and cleaning out the cats' litter trays.
Happy with the status quo. :)

SoleBizzz · 13/10/2018 18:26

I am watching Rich House Poor House.
I should be having a shower but I am really tired today after hospital injections. My mental health suffers greatly also.
I'd like to be in a hot country, sipping wine watching the sunset and be worry free.

SodTheBloodyLotOfThem · 13/10/2018 18:27

festiveissues well done your DH.

Some of you have made me change my mind to wishing I was in a vair posh spa hotel, having been for a swim and a massage and about to go for a delicious dinner and lovely sleep all by myself.

I am lying on the bed after putting 2 DC to bed

I should be hanging out the washing that I've been ignoring for two days

I would like to be going out for dinner with old friends somewhere cosy and warm with good food and lots of chat. sigh

ThePrincipal · 13/10/2018 18:29

Obsessing over all the trans threads on Mumsnet at the moment. It’s like my brain won’t stop until it’s taken it all in.

Should be cooking or doing my tax returns.

Want to just chill out in peace with a wine or pottering in the garden, but getting dark now.

patsywine · 13/10/2018 18:32

Im currently sat on the couch watching ben and holly with the DC. I should be cleaning up all the mess they've made today. I would much rather be out with friends having some nice food and drinks.

BifsWif · 13/10/2018 18:32

I am in the bath feeling hungover.

I should be catching up on housework.

I’d like to be somewhere hot and sunny, watching my children play while drinking a lovely cocktail.

OtterPockets · 13/10/2018 18:33

I'm trying to persuade 10 month old DS to go to asleep. It's been half an hour. He's not cooperating.

I should be downstairs working. And I can smell dinner burning.

I'd like to be in bed Grin it's been a long day.

LesLavandes · 13/10/2018 18:37

I'm sitting on my bed reading Mumsnet. I should be downstairs lighting fire and cooking dinner. I wish I was on an adventurous holiday😊

Lynne1Cat · 13/10/2018 18:38

I am wasting time on here
I should be doing the ironing
I'd like to be eating trifle.

I AM going to be getting ready later and going to the pub to watch a band play

beela · 13/10/2018 18:38

I am supervising dd in the bath.

I should be getting her out of the bath and putting her to bed, she is shattered.

I would like to be.... In a country pub by the fire. Maybe a B&B pub so I don't have to go outside into the wind and rain later on.

Spankyoumuchly · 13/10/2018 18:40

I'm making sure my cat who is dying of cancer gets to eat all of his fish, and the other two cats (who are getting fat eating his leftovers,) don't pinch it. I probably ought to be putting stuff in the dishwasher. I would like to be in New York, wandering through Central Park and going to The Plaza for champagne after the walk.

Fontofnoknowledge · 13/10/2018 19:16

I'm watching strictly and MNetting. Should be tidying kitchen after teens made supper (!!!) .. would like to be watching rom com on tv then having spontaneous, wild shagging in the front room with DH (with teens out of the house obvs ...)

GoldenBuns · 13/10/2018 19:20

I am mumsnetting and drinking too much lager while DH is cooking a curry. I should probably be cooking the curry myself. I wish I was on a weekend break with DH - somewhere like Prague would be nice.

curious2 · 13/10/2018 19:24

Waiting outside my sister’s flat for her to come out - I am giving her a lift to my house and we are going to have dinner.

Happy to be doing this.

By a beach.

adoggymama · 13/10/2018 20:06

I am watching strictly feeling sorry for myself. I should be cleaning out my hamster and washing my makeup brushes and I wish I was in a nice spa hotel at the pool!

happydaysrhere · 13/10/2018 20:12

Watching strictly with a gin
I should be clearing away dishes after dinner but I'm shattered so leaving it till morning.
I want to go out drinking cocktails with my best girl friends go to a really cheesy bar that plays loads of 80s music then get chips on way home . It's been ages since done that .
