Pottering, have been doing housework and a bit in our garden. Just had dinner and we’re now sitting down DP has a beer and I’m drinking the remainder of my wine from yesterday. It’s been a lovely day really considering we can’t go anywhere!

waterlego · 11/04/2020 17:54

Sleeping, reading, making biscuits and drinking beer in the garden. Hope you’ve had a good day OP.

Gardening and cooking

BadlyAgedMemes · 11/04/2020 17:55
  • Moaning about my hayfever
  • Trying and failing to nap
  • Physio exercises and a half-hearted body resistance work out
  • Cooking
  • Crochet while watching some utter crap on TV
  • Resisting the one chocolate egg I have
  • Snacking too much on other things
  • Vague, pointless internet stuff

I went for a long, socially distanced walk earlier, now I’m watching the cricket.

Ben Stokes is destroying the Aussies just like he did last year Grin!

delilahbucket · 11/04/2020 17:58

Working, walking and now cooking with a large glass of homemade gin on the go 😁

roarfeckingroar · 11/04/2020 17:58

Breakfast in garden with DP. Long walk in sun for exercise. Lunch at home and now enjoying doing little with the french windows open; my pregnant body is demanding rest! Take away later probs.

Samcro · 11/04/2020 17:59

Face timing dd who has her birthday today. Big thanks to the staff at the care home for making it special.
Weird social distancing from son when he dropped of some shopping. Weird as in strange not being able to hug him.
Other than that just been lazy.

Dinosauratemydaffodils · 11/04/2020 18:00

Played Ghost Castle with dc
Made lamb marinade for Greek inspired leg of lamb for tomorrow
Thinking about how I'm going to write my last essay of the academic year

About to go for a walk by the sea (we're 200 metres away from it)

roarfeckingroar · 11/04/2020 18:00

@AgeLikeWine just got very excited before I realised it's a replay

unlimiteddilutingjuice · 11/04/2020 18:00

Sleeping in
Pissing about on facebook
Planting beans in the allotment

paradisefalls · 11/04/2020 18:01

Weathers been amazing here today so kids played in the garden and I've pottered about in the house and tried to catch up with all the washing from 2 teenage girls 😤 seriously were on lockdown but the mountain of washing from them hasn't stopped!

dementedma · 11/04/2020 18:01

Braved the supermarket for us and for mum
Stripped the beds and laundered the bedding
Dishes, dishes, dishes
Did a super hot hygiene wash with vinegar in the washing machine as it was smelling fusty
Sat in the summerhouse reading and watching the bumblebees
Now making dinner

FurryDogMother · 11/04/2020 18:06

Siting in our field with the dogs and cat, listening to the birds and the cows up the road. Took some photos of the view from our front gate (one attached). Planted some more seeds (jalapenos this time), then cooked stir fry for dinner. Now browsing FB etc. online and chatting to friends on Messenger.

It’s my birthday.

I had a walk to Tesco’s for a few groceries, played in the garden with the DCs. I have a takeaway en route and a bottle of Prosecco in the fridge.

soundsystem · 11/04/2020 18:07

Pottering in the garden.
Easter egg hunt for the DC.
Looking forward to a Ginonce they're in bed.

blue25 · 11/04/2020 18:09

Breakfast and lunch in the garden. Made brownies. Did a bit of gardening. Now having a G&T in the garden. Partner cooking a roast dinner.

Gran22 · 11/04/2020 18:10

Walked up to the local shop for a paper, socially distancing all the while; planted some summer bulbs, did some weeding, ate lunch, sat in the garden, hung out two lots of washing, drank some wine, now waiting for DH to finish cooking dinner. A nice day, but we're retired so its a normalish Sunday.

penguingorl · 11/04/2020 18:11

Had about 3 sips of morning coffee in garden with dp, then realised I'm a massive Goth who can't cope with direct sunlight so finished it in lounge with the cats!
Attended a fantastic virtual craft market, with mostly UK sellers but a couple of lovely international ones. Purchased a beautiful hand sewn card then found out the maker lives 1.5 miles from me!
Had leftover roast for lunch.
Spent the afternoon making jewellery in my sunny spare room with lush view of garden whilst listening to awesome Herbie Hancock special on R6.
Now having a coffee and contemplating what to eat before logging on for another virtual makers market at 7!
All in all one of my favourite days in ages, coffee, cats, craft and connectivity Brew

Chesterfuckingdrorrs · 11/04/2020 18:41

Working...12hr shift on a glorious sunny day. I'm counting down the seconds until I can go home and pour myself a large G&T.

GinGenie · 11/04/2020 18:44

Was in sainsburys at 7.30am (nhs) then straight to work and not long got back. Missed the lovely sunny day. Back at work tomorrow too 😔
