What's everyone up to today?

[lucysmam]

I've just made myself a coffee to drink in peace, both girls still in bed for now after a fairly late one last night. I'll get them up in half an hour or so when I've drunk this.

We were going to go for a walk down the river this morning but my right welly has a hole in it's sole & it's tipping it down. So we'll probably watch a film together instead.

I've got two loads of washing to be done, school shirts to iron and reading with dd2. We'll bake buns for packed lunches too. I bought a new, blue, gel colour I want to try out before I bake dd1's birthday cake so they'll be blue .

I want to re-write this term's Rainbow and Guide plans too - atm they're just scribbles I can read but everyone else needs to read them too!

Shepherd's pie & a pile of veg for tea, followed by giant cookie and Bailey's cream (maybe).

What about you lot?

Just put a sausage/bacon/veg casserole in the slow cooker to be had with roast potatoes and Yorkshire puddings about 3pm.
About to change our bedding but the cat is asleep on the bed so I’ll give her another 20 mins 🤗🤗.
Lazy day, need to go and get petrol and do an online shop.
Might make a jam roly poly and custard for pudding during Dr Who.

Just bfing baby ds3 to sleep, hopefully he will nap for two hours. I'll drink tea, eat cake and do laundry while he sleeps, maybe do some cross stitch too. Ds1 & 2 are playing in their bedrooms. After lunch we are all going in the garden to do a tidy and plant some patio plants we bought yesterday. Later we will have roast chicken and all the trimmings.
Need to do reading and spellings with ds2, Ds1 assures me he's already done his homework..
Then hair trimming for oldest two, showers and bed!

On my way to see 1917 with DH and DS. I have tissues.

Sorting out Dd's bedroom and putting up a new bed. I hope to get to the allotment later but that may not happen.

Washing is on, dishwasher is emptied. I'm still in pj's with tea and toast. DH is out walking the dog. DS is revising/doing homework.

I'm going for a bath in a minute, change the bedsheets (I've got a heavy cold and tried to sweat it out last night in bed). Make sure school uniform is sorted for tomorrow, something quick for dinner. I started watching Gold-digger on bbc iplayer last night so I'll watch another couple of episodes today.

A quiet day here!

Usual Sunday here - we’ve all lazed around in our pyjamas all morning, just about to have a late breakfast/early dinner. We’ll take the dc out somewhere for a walk in a bit I think then back home for a roast for dinner, ironing school/work clothes, homework for the kids, bath then bed and I can sit on the sofa with a glass of wine before an early night for me and Dh before work tomorrow.

Deciding if I should go to a&e about my infected wisdom tooth extraction... any advice?

I've got a tummy bug from ds so it'll be a miracle if I can manage to shuffle downstairs to put a wash on then shuffle back up to bed again to die quietly

I’m still in bed as lying down in the only position my sciatica doesn’t hurt so much. Dh is supplying me with food and cups of tea, and then I’m thinking of popping round to @maddiemookins16mums for lunch at 3 pm 😁

Done the weekly shop with baby niece as my companion. I’ve started cooking from scratch and I really enjoy getting all the bits together.
When DD and DH come home from visiting grandparents we will go to MILs for her birthday lunch. I’m hoping to have a rose or too.
Then burgers for dinner and a long hot shower when DD is in bed.

Had a lazy morning, now starting to tackle homework with DS2 & DS3. DH & DS1 just gone out to football.

Will do dishwasher & have shower shortly. Heading out after football to meet friends, a town about 20 mins drive away has a free transport fair with service vehicles & classic cars on display.

Feeling lazy today & need to go shopping so probably pizza for dinner.

Out for lunch and maybe a film

Still in bed and not planning on moving for at least another hour!

Turned wifi off earlier to get kids to clean their bedrooms. Dishwasher, washing machine and dryer on. Hovered and changed some bedding. Made smoothies and heading off to do a family yoga class with dh, dd3 and ds2. Probably relax for a few hours and then put on dinner and ready for work and school tomorrow.

Got up late as went to a hen party after work last night.
Now eating a sandwich then going to the gym for an hour to do cardio & weights.
Meeting a friend at 230pm for coffee.

Picked DS up from MIL's where he had spent the night.
Meal planned. DS did his homework.
DS and DH are playing Minecraft. We'll go swimming later and have steak for supper.

Still in bed ....didn't get to sleep until 3am

Cuddling my dog. I’m going for a coffee in a bit, and then going riding. This evening I should probably hoover (quickly, before Dr Who!)

Lazy morning in bed. Then bins,dishes, washing, fed birds. Now taking elderly mum for hearing test. Possibly some ironing later if i can be arsed.

We took DD and DS swimming this morning which we haven’t done as a family for ages because the last time was such a disaster, thankfully this time they loved it!
Just had a boring sandwiches lunch, DH is planning on going to our allotment shortly while I supervise homework and do some laundry.

This evening we have a complicated plan of cooking the roast, baths and hairwashes for the DC, and DH playing tennis. Suspect we might eat fairly late by the time all that gets done, but it means I get an hour or so to myself which is like gold dust to me at the moment.

So far I've had a coffee then ran 5 miles on the treadmill, breakfast, coffee,hoovered, dusted and sorted the fires out, coffee. Online food shopping order in and now cheering myself up reading some of the more light hearted threads on here with more coffee.
The suns out here now so feel like I should be outside doing something, no idea what, there's no coffee out there.

Decluttering and have filled two bags for charity. Have sorted all shoes and boots and all jewellery boxes. Broken stuff thrown out and other stuff to be cleaned. Sorted out underwear drawers too.

Will clean the bathrooms at some point and sort out the washing that’s currently drying on the racks.

Had a lazy morning and went out for a late brunch. Having a cuppa now before walking the pooch, hoping the sun stays out. Then off to my mum’s for another tea and a catch up. I’ve got a list of small around-the-house jobs that we’re tackling one at a time in the evenings. Then I’ll watch some Netflix and eat popcorn!
