How are you relaxing tonight?

Both young DC are asleep in bed. I’m sitting on my own in the living, listening to chilled music on the radio & sipping a cider whilst teaching myself to crochet. Blissful Smile (especially as I’m starting to pick the crochet technique up, so not getting frustrated!)

What are you doing to unwind?

Sitting in a dark room playing on my
phone. Son in law is sitting in the same dark room playing on his phone.

I’ve had my shower and done hair etc. now relaxing with hubby, he’s watching the cricket, I’ve got multiple mumsnet tabs open and am browsing the forums 😂
Whilst drinking my white wine of course!
In about 10 mins he’s going to be asking me “who the hell are you talking to online now” He doesn’t get it and I’m sure my mumsnet activity is as annoying to him as is his toothpaste tube etiquette to me 😂

Laying in sofa watching outlander- currently addicted

With elderflower gin and tonic and DH binge watching Eastenders in the background. Just getting to the point when we're not drunk but starting to chat shit. Will start on the tea soon I think.

Just been for a nice meal, bought cupcakes on the way home, now snuggled in bed with the laptop about to watch a film. DH is playing a video game.

We left DS2 at home wnd went out for a drink 😊 DD took herself to futsal. This growing up is great 😆

Chipsahoy · 15/08/2019 21:38

I just painted my nails and now having a snack of yogurt and granola. Got you tube "mum vlogs" in the background. Kiddos in bed and Dh is on his way home from a work meeting thing.

With a bottle of sweet desert wine and some delicious French cheeses, and my Husband ... when our DD’s are finally asleep!

FrappeLatte · 15/08/2019 21:58

@Argeles Wink are you planning a seduction?

@Stravapalava that’s my favourite ‘level of drunk’ ... but surely one more can’t hurt Grin

I’m going to snuggle in bed and read my book now. Hope everyone has a lovely relaxing evening.

Sitting listening to the crashing waves and little else. On holiday on a small island in the Hebrides no traffic no street lights just the sound of silence.
And a gin ❤️😍

Argeles · 15/08/2019 22:04

@FrappeLatte

No, but that’s probably what DH is hoping for!

FrappeLatte · 15/08/2019 22:08

@Argeles one reason why I’m going to bed Wink

@tableanadchairs that sounds idyllic except for the gin, switch that for Baileys

Not much relaxing here. Ds is having a party in the garden to celebrate his and his friends' exam results.
I've been hiding in my bedroom since 7.30.
I did have all good intentions of tidying my room but have just dozed on my bed watching crap on tv Blush.
I'm ready for them all to go home now so I can go to sleep Grin
