This is the one where the news remains dull, and all the irons you bought in the last thread have developed limescale.

I had a slice of toast and now I feel a bit sick. It must be because I am low carbing.The toast was worth it though,it was slightly cold and hard so the butter went on the way it used to in a 1990s B&B.

I ordered a wheelbarrow. It came today.

I ordered some navy blue cotton today to make dd1 some face coverings that match her uniform - her school have asked that they be worn in communal areas.

Bought my mum a new kitchen tablecloth yesterday. It has pictures of lemons on it.

I put the bins out. My bins go out more than me Smile

We had a barbecue on the beach this evening, one of the last 'home holiday' things we promised we would do.

Tomorrow beach on the west of the island which we never go to and then school, work ad infinitem

@Bea

Nobody fed the chickens this morning...
that in itself is Shock

That is the first thing I ask DH every morning, are the chickens ok?

I've had to mute the school WhatsApp.
I hear you! My finger has hovered over the button several times this week.

I've been trying to go to bed for the last half an hour but I just can't summon the energy to move off the sofa.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 30/08/2020 23:04

The laundry is done and needs taking out of the machine.

Our Amazon delivery of a hostess trolley for the kitchen is coming tomorrow by 8pm.

We might watch Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure tonight in preparation for watching the new one some other night this week.

A year group one, set up by a group of parents not in my immediate social circle. I was added by the parent of one of DS1’s friends. They have time to worry about stuff that isn’t even on my radar. I guess someone has to do it.

BEST POST EVER 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I decided to dye my hair purple today! But the dye didn’t work so I’m still grey 😭

I love this post, so relatable, yet so elegantly understated. There could be a 40 page AIBU thread underneath this comment. Smile

I need to buy mixed fruit and dried cherries tmrw to soak for this years Christmas cake

Sunbird24 · 31/08/2020 07:20

I forgot to switch off my usual Monday morning alarm so I’m just going to stay in bed until whatever time I think I would have slept...

I like those ones. Is it wipeable vinyl?
NeedToKnow101 · 31/08/2020 07:44

The arms of my new reading glasses are slightly too long. It's fairly annoying.

PenguinsOnParade · 31/08/2020 08:39

I've gone back to bed after making DD's packed lunch for school today. Between DH and the dogs I rarely have the bed to myself so it's bliss right now.

Maxineputyourredshoeson · 31/08/2020 08:40

I haven’t slept at all.

It’s our eldest cats birthday today, he’s 11 - we will sing happy birthday to him later.

I’ve given in and out the heating on.

I should wake the DC up but I don’t want to adult yet.

boatyardblues · 31/08/2020 08:46

My weekday work alarm woke me up stupidly early too. I have Netflix on my phone and headphones by my bed, so I am making good use of my lie in.

boatyardblues · 31/08/2020 08:51

The builders working next door have turned up and started making a racket. 🙄

MutteringDarkly · 31/08/2020 08:59

I don't especially want to do anything today but thought I should offer that DD could choose, as she's been an absolute star occupying herself a lot on my working days. She doesn't want to go out either. Result.

drspouse · 31/08/2020 09:01

The cat got stuck in the spare room. Only I heard her meow.

sueelleker · 31/08/2020 09:14

One of our dogs had an upset stomach during the night-I've just finished cleaning the kitchen floor.....
