We are finishing breakfast here. DD1 is off to a 4yo birthday party with DH poor bastard while I take baby twins to supermarket to pick up some bits for my mum who is flying back from the States today after a 3 week holiday.

Then we have a playdate at the playground for all 3 dc and I will be cooking a chicken stew for everyone for dinner.... and giving the massive laundry pile the side-eye!!

Another one going to the People's Vote march. Well, all the marching I'll be doing is from Victoria station to Parliament Square for the speeches. (dodgy knees). Went to the last one and sat on the steps under a statue. Great to meet up with people from all over the country. Bollocks to Brexit! Grin

ASauvignonADay · 23/03/2019 10:09

House jobs - got a washing load on

Swimming lesson for dd1.
Ballet and modern classes for dd1.
Home for lunch.
Going to let dd2 decorate her flower garden today so we can plant it tomorrow.

Just making some brunch and then I have to prepare a presentation for a job interview on Monday Confused

Tonight we are going for a fancy dinner at the restaurant where we got married - they're moving to be just a wedding venue so they're doing a last hurrah tasting menu. It will be lovely but a little sad as we probably won't get chance to eat there again!

RosieposiePuddingandPi · 23/03/2019 10:13

DS and I are still in pyjamas having a mid-morning snack and watching a film as we're both not feeling great.
DH is away on training so I think later I'll take DS to the library and get some new books and have a little potter round the market in town.
This afternoon hopefully we'll both have a nap and then a chilled day round the house doing some housework and general tidying while DS plays.

elephantoverthehill · 23/03/2019 10:21

Dance exams for Dd this morning. She looks like this then off to Tesco and the allotment

Travelling on trains to and from London Kings Cross. Oh, and a March in between.

lucysmam · 23/03/2019 10:43

Not much at the mo.

I've been up since 9am. So far have drunk a cup of tea, a cup of coffee and made us cheese on toast for breakfast.

Just about to put the uniforms in the washer, when dd1 eventually reappears with her washing!

I'm going to wander to Lidl with both girls shortly for packed lunch stuff for the week since they're off to town tomorrow with their dad. Then help dd2 with homework I think and do some printing to replace the pile of paperwork I spilled the last of my wine over last night :(

We're trying a new recipe tonight for tea, dd2's already requested plain chicken instead

DerelictWreck · 23/03/2019 10:46

Bugger all Grin it's been a hell of a couple of weeks so I'm not even going to leave the house.

I'm surrounded by food and shall hibernate while binge watching tv and maybe planning my new kitchen. I'm very excited!

Ronsters · 23/03/2019 10:47

Gardening, really lovely sunny day here so going to tidy up garden and get some seeds in.
Also cleaning the bathroom, ironing, and looking forwards to starting my new book later.

AngelOfDeathNix · 23/03/2019 10:53

Dropped dd1&2 at their dance classes for the morning and then popped home to catch up on laundry and do a quick tidy up. Just collected dd2 from dance and popping to Tesco before going back to get dd1 at lunchtime! Need to finish packing their bags for their dance show tomorrow, and my bag, and put the wine in the fridge for afterwards! Homework and housework this afternoon and a cheeky Chinese takeaway if the girls get themselves sorted! Early nights all round for an early start tomorrow!

BitchQueen90 · 23/03/2019 10:57

We are looking after a relative's dog while they are on holiday so just got back from a 2 hour walk at the nature reserve. Going to chill for a bit and have a coffee, then food shop and swimming lesson for DS.

idoliketobebesidethesea · 23/03/2019 11:07

I'm going to a class to learn how to arm knit!

NorthernPowermouse · 23/03/2019 11:11

Waved DP and DS off to the march this morning. DD has chicken pox (again) so I’m stuck at home with her. She’s asleep at the mo, will have to go and get tickets for an Easter event when she wakes up then in quarantine the rest of the day. Might venture out for fish and chips for tea though.

whojamaflip · 23/03/2019 11:12

Just brought the sheep into the lambing sheds as they are due very shortly

Waiting for a choc cake to bake then out into the garden to sort out the veg patch and put some more seeds in.

Dh at work all day, ds1 on duke of ed somewhere in Wales, dd at training so it's just me and the little two. Takeaway for tea and gin and film for afters Smile

Decormad38 · 23/03/2019 11:15

Been to buy pets treats. DH gone to his pottery class. After lunch Im going for coffee with a friend who is battling with disabilities. Later I’m going to tidy up and have a nap because Im bushed!

DustyMaiden · 23/03/2019 11:16

Shopping, lunch, Dinner at Dds. Bath and lounge. It is my birthday.

SimonJT · 23/03/2019 11:20

Viewing some flats and hoping to put an offer on one today, I just wish they weren’t so expensive!

Then I’m off to meet a friends baby as his flatmate (an ex) is on holiday, so I can go round without getting into trouble 😁

citychick · 23/03/2019 11:26

We're 8 hours ahead of the UK so it's early evening here.
I worked til lunch time. Homework was done with DH in charge.

Have spent the afternoon inside as the weather is miserably wet and DS now has the cold I've just shaken off.

Bit of a non starter here today. Early to bed so we hope to feel better tomorrow. 🤒

anniehm · 23/03/2019 11:50

Recovering from parkrun, at least the dog is already knackered! I think we are supposed to be dutiful parents later and watch dd in a concert but it's an excuse for a trip to the rather nice tap room near the venue!

FullOnMonet1980 · 23/03/2019 12:35

Got up early. Went to Sainsburys, Home Bargains, Matalan followed by a walk down the canal to feed the ducks.

Home now, had lunch & just chilling out watching last nights England game.

Need to do my meal plan for next week but avoiding picking up my note pad cos I'm fed up of thinking what meals to cook.

Looking forward to wine, lemon cheesecake & binge watching Dirty John this evening Smile

Lemonsquinky · 23/03/2019 12:39

Happy birthday Dusty!🎂🎁🎉

I'm still in bed!

This literally happens once a year and today is my day Grin

vampirethriller · 23/03/2019 14:16

Currently watching a terrible zombie film while the baby has a nap. Just made bread and a cherry cake, this morning we went to a jumble sale and later the dog is having a long walk. It's lovely weather here.
