I'm with you!

Completely lost the plot / track of time (delete as applicable).

Are you saying today is Thursday and not Wednesday? Shock

I had the same experience when my DM suggested the supermarket might not be open at 10 am on Sunday because it was, you know, Easter Sunday. WTF? Easter? I had no idea.

Oops I put the bin out tonight. Guess that might not be happening in the morning! Confused

Oh god, I hate Easter Sunday.
At least we could’ve gone for Sunday lunch before

Why hate Easter Sunday? It seems an innocuous enough day...?

Admittedly associated with happiness in my subconscious as when I was a child we had always given up sweets for Lent and the whole ‘Jesus Is Risen’ thing really paled compared to a giant Smarties egg. Grin

And today is Maundy Thursday :)

I know a few friends gave their kids their Easter eggs last Sunday........

Dilisk..just the awful associations with it from my children’s childhood
Like a load of wet Sundays all rolled into one.
Once The eggs were open that Was it..nothing else was.

I was surprised too. I have no idea what day/date we're on at the moment.

Titsywoo · 09/04/2020 22:43

Ha! I have been sure all day today that it's Friday but I did know it is Easter this weekend. I managed to get an egg for each child in my shopping last week and have a beef wellington from Cook in the freezer for Easter lunch.

ILoveAnOwl · 09/04/2020 22:43

I had to hastily fish the Hot Cross Buns out of the freezer earlier when I suddenly realised tomorrow is Good Friday.

ineedaholidaynow · 09/04/2020 22:43

I kept thinking it was the weekend today. Not sure why, it’s not like today is any different to any other!

lastonetime · 09/04/2020 22:47

Because DH is "off" tomorrow I've assumed it's Friday most of the day... I don't work Fridays, I do Thursdays though ...

Wauden · 09/04/2020 22:47

As I won't be working on the bank holiday I kept thinking that today is Friday. Last week I was convinced that Tuesday was Wednesday. 🤯😜😁
