So. Now you’re all at home all day together, is there anything you do you’re scared they’ll find out about?

[BertrandRussell]

I’ll tell you mine if you tell me yours!

Hmm, not really! I'm in a flat with a shared room terrace (3 other flats share it). I have thought that as the weather warms up, it would be nice for OH and I to have a BBQ up there. Its overlooked, so do wonder if we'd get complaints, although 2 of us that live together isnt really a gathering.

Yes. I'm usually home more than the rest of family and have a tendency to talk to myself, about anything and everything. DS has walked in on me several times chatting away; I claimed I was talking to the dog.

My DH has finally discovered my Lala - the bit of ribbon I fiddle with when I suck my thumb. I'm nearly 40.

HAHA great thread. My DH should be much more worried than me I think....

@Bezalelle are you actually me???!!! 😂😂😂

Amazed at the lack of guilty secrets!

I spend far too much time playing computer games and often am still in my dressing gown at 3pm apparently these things are bad in a fifty year old very happy woman

I have a serious soreen habit I've been hiding for years

Spend so much time on Mumsnet

Christ no I wish I did have a guilty secret, might make life more exciting right now.

The size of my yarn stash

My long bath habit whilst toddler sleeps. He’s nearly 3 but still loves a nap and as DH does bedtime I’m not one to worry too much about a 2 hour + nap

Everyone thinks I'm the strong one but I riddled with anxiety and it's starting to leak out now. Can't hide it with businesses any more 😔

That I watch Doctors on BBC1 while nattering with other devotees on MN.

Theres nothing my husband wouldn't know anyway but I have discovered my cat might be fat as he now sleeps literally all day. I had hoped he might do exercise while we're normally at work but he gets on the bed at about 10am and that's it til 5 when he gets up for more food.
He is retired now though so I guess it's forgivable...

SanFrancisco you hoped your cat would get some exercise while you were out?

Come on then, Bertrand. Tell us your guilty secrets.

I spend a great deal of my day doing not very much at all. I’m definitely busted.

Eat "weird" food combinations or stuff like having porridge for lunch.

Doing kettlebells in the front room in the day. I'm doing it upstairs at the moment in secret, because I find it embarrassing for people to watch me.

Toasted waffles with hot sauce for breakfast...I'm resisting so far.

@Bezalelle I also have a Lala

I discovered dp had a secret. I have been going to work like a slave for years. Long commute, out the house from 630am, home v rarely before 730pm. I always believed dp was working very hard - he got made redundant from his job in 2018 and now he runs a business with 2 other people (making a lot lot less than his salary used to be but we figured it was more stable and better for us all as he would be under his own steam).

first week I spent at home, which was the week before the lockdown, I discovered that although dp jumps up out of bed, he does v little. He potters around, goes to the shops, comes back, maybe does 1 or 2 calls. Has some lunch then has a nap. He then puts on dinner. At this point, I normally come back from work. So basically he does about 1 hour's work a day, sleeps during the day for around 3 hours and potters around for the rest .

And I've been wondering why their business doesn't do that well!

Well it hasn’t been discovered but I’m really missing my naps! I have 2 days off during the week. I blast through any jobs I’ve got to get done then spend the rest of the day in bed with tea and toast and biscuits. I’d bloody love a day to that!

I also discovered Dp, when sat downstairs, just watches shit you tube videos that he streams to our big TV. I mean real and utter shit. Like people reviewing a McDonalds burger, or some shit people reviewing other crap. It's like I never knew this man

Mine is still the guiltiest secret. I’m hoping to draw a few others out before I confess. For the avoidance of doubt it is perfectly legal and harms nobody.
