I'm drinking coffee, then going to empty my fish tank.

Dd2 has just done some glass painting so is tidying up the kitchen table. No idea what she plans to do next.

Dd1 is watching Youtube in bed.

What's going on at yours?

I've worked a night shift last night and had around 3 hours sleep..
DH has mowed the lawn and is now dozing on the sofa.. I'm feeling slightly stabby towards him!
Both ds are chilling but I'm sure theyll need me very soon so will make sure DH is rudely awoken

weegiemum · 22/06/2019 15:53

I'm on here, but thinking about doing some knitting.

Dd2 and her boyfriend have taken the dog out and then dd will be getting ready for a party (she's 15) which will nach take several hours.

Ds (17) is prioritising Sitting In His Room Doing Nothing over most things. No one (apparently) is free to do anything at all, so I'm contemplating taking him to the cinema, though I'm pretty sure Doing Nothing will prevail.

Dh is working until Monday morning. I have the dog for company - dd1 also working most of the weekend.

One cat is snoring, the other pacing about hoping for food, I'm trying to nap and my guest is watching Boris on the TV

NerrSnerr · 22/06/2019 15:56

My husband is in the garden cutting up a gate. My children (age 4 and 2) are playing with their toy tool box. I appear to be watching PJ Masks.

RosieposiePuddingandPi · 22/06/2019 16:00

DH is on his laptop playing som awful looking game and DS is rolling round the floor with some toys and intermittently watching Andy's Dino Adventures for the hundredth time.
I'm mucking about on the iPad having a break for ten minutes as I'm massively pregnant and knackered having done a big food shop and gone round Ikea today. When I get some energy back I'm going to do some more laundry and clean the kitchen. I need to control my excitement! 🙄

StCharlotte · 22/06/2019 16:03

Just back from pre-hol pedicure. Having a quick cuppa but need to get arse in gear as still have to clean bathroom and change beds for dogsitters. Last minute washing and ironing. Should probably pack at some point!

DH and dog are napping.

VioletCharlotte · 22/06/2019 16:04

I'm having a sit down and a cold drink after cutting the back grass and jet washing the patio, spring spaniel snoring at my feet. DS1 has gone to work and DS2 is out with his mates. Next job is the front lawn and hang some more washing out. I'm making the most of being able to get outside after days of rain!

aposterhasnoname · 22/06/2019 16:05

I’m sat in the garden, mumsnetting obvs, and DH has just gone to fetch a bottle of wine from the fridge.

WhichHorseShallIChoose · 22/06/2019 16:16

We’re all off out later.
So, I’m sat in the bath, mumsnetting;
DH is watching Ascot on TV downstairs;
2 adult DS’s are in their bedrooms doing whatever it is they do (probably on computers).

crisscrosscranky · 22/06/2019 16:27

I'm sitting in the garden watching DD(2) play in her paddling pool, DD (12) is inside speaking to her friends who are also inside at their house I suggested they might get off the phones and meet up and was met with a look and DH is looking hot and bothered on the decking (he's a ginger - he'll only last 5 minutes)

Bwekfusth · 22/06/2019 16:42

I'm attempting to watch the newest episode of Modern Family (don't know why, I've fallen out of love with it the past few seasons but I'm sticking with it to the bitter end) and the kids are in the garden, probably fighting. OH has gone out to buy things for a BBQ, and knowing him will be gone for about 4 hours.

ALongHardWinter · 22/06/2019 17:19

I'm in a coffee shop at the moment,so my cat is home alone. I expect she's trashing the place at this very minute.......

Bugbeau · 22/06/2019 18:30

The kids are eating apples and watching Blaze, I’m clearing up from dinner and my husband is running them a bath. 5 mins of calm before the madness of bath time!

Sexnotgender · 22/06/2019 18:45

Dogs in the garden being sick.

I’m eating leftover sweet potato chilli and drinking wine.

Baby is sleeping Smile

princessspotify · 22/06/2019 18:47

Dh in the garden talking to elderly neighbour over the fence. DS1 upstairs watching Mr Bean clips on YouTube . DS2 watching Bee movie on Netflix. I'm watching Bee movie too but thinking I should start tidying up but can't be bothered

Kim82 · 22/06/2019 18:50

Dh is at a friend’s house, dd1 is upstairs watching something on Netflix, dd2 is tidying her room, dd3 is sitting on the living room rug doing a jigsaw and I have just parked my backside on the sofa after bringing the washing in from the line. Bedtime for dd3 in about half an hour then I can stick a film on and enjoy being alone (the two older girls will more than likely stay in their rooms)

fussychica · 22/06/2019 18:53

Just finished reading the papers in the garden. Nipping in every so often to watch the cricket. DH is now watering a few pots.

managedmis · 22/06/2019 18:58

Just got back from the Lebanese supermarket, I've eaten an almond cakey square thing and a yummy date stuffed almond thing. Delicious. Drinking coffee now.

DH is mowing the lawn, DS is watching Tayo and DD is napping.

OverseasWorker · 22/06/2019 18:58

Just had a takeaway and sitting outside with some cans of cider listening to Diana Ross & the Supremes.

TotheletterofthelawTHELETTER · 22/06/2019 19:00

DD is organising her Harry Potter trading cards, which mainly seems to involve —boring me to tears —giving a blow by blow account of the story.

Dcat is asleep on the back of the sofa after a hard day of lying in the sun.

Working up the energy to go to a friend’s house for drinks in a bit.

fedoff · 22/06/2019 19:09

Kids are on the sofa flicking through Netflix , DH reading a book about the mafia and I'm checking Mumsnet and reading my kindle. Cats are asleep somewhere

Sexnotgender · 22/06/2019 19:13

Baby is definitely asleep now, seems he was only pretending before...

I’m sitting in the garden drinking wine in the sun.

The dog is no longer being sick.

timeforawine · 22/06/2019 19:41

Toddler went to bed half an hour ago so I'm eating twirl bites and drinking wine Grin

IhaveALooBrush · 22/06/2019 19:45

DH is away on a works do. I want dd to go to sleep so I can order a takeaway that he doesn't like and watch Love Island.

theneverendinglaundry · 22/06/2019 20:03

I'm laying with my 3 year old waiting for her to nod off. Dh putting the other 2 to bed. I can hear bands playing in the local park.
