Come and tell me your dull and unexciting news THE SEQUEL

[ReallySpicyCurry]

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.

Also my baby’s nose is still too small for the tommee tippee bogey extractor

My DH has made me a smoothie. It has too many pips.

I cleaned the cooker hob this morning; it had sticky bits where a pan boiled over.

Back from work - stayed an hour longer because one couldn't see the house opposite for rain. Did NOT get wet. Now it's raining again.

DD bought some "Eierschecke" (type of cheesecake) we shared the piece.

My app told me it's grey waste day tomorrow.

I have successfully removed all the gloss paint from the door hinges (2 doors - don't want to go mad!) by boiling them in bicarb. (Yey!)

Currently washing down the kitchen cupboard fronts (white and with stupid dirt-trapping frames.) I would much rather be watching Borgen.

Later I will 'do my roots. I know how to party!

DS just trod in a dog poo in the garden. Barefoot. I thought I had cleared up all ddog’s deposits, but he clearly left some more while I wasn’t looking. Boak 🤮

Just stopped for a sit down while the sausages are frying for everyone's tea. Going out for a walk with my friend later. Looks like rain.

I thought my 2 fat fish had been eaten by a heron on Saturday as not seen them since and not eaten their food.

They are alive. I nearly had a little cry.

DDog3 is mortally afraid of herons. She is fine with horses, cows, sheep, tractors et al.

A heron scares the bejesus out of her.

My food shop has just been delivered.

We've all got a cold.

My kids made a mess.
I received another Bill in the post and I broke my phone replaced the screen for fifty pound and two days later it fell down the lol when I had a wee after a wine at a baby shower.
I have to much washing to cope with, may throw out clothes and become naturists (aware of poor spelling) 😊

I paid the milk bill on my phone.

I do this every month and I am emotionally comforted by the fact that the automated voice on the other end recognises my postcode, my birthday and the card I usually pay on.

I don't have many friends. (As you can imagine...)

*loo not lol** my iPad is working against me today

Also during lockdown I bought myself a robot vaccuum cleaner for 150 quid on a credit card.

I empty it out regularly as my DD has long hair. I also talk to it and when it goes back to it's recharging station I say 'Good Girl'.

My daughter and I call it 'Robo Cop'.

I feel like this thread is my entire life.

@greengreengrass14 I think I’d like to listen to this thread read out loud on audio book - by someone with a calming voice.

DD had socially distanced swimming this evening. I prefer it to Pre Covid swimming; the physical separation means she can't chat instead of listen, and I don't have to listen to the inane gossip of gobshites who drown out the teacher's voice.

The kitchen sink still smells of eggs despite my liberal use of vinegar and baking soda as recommended by an internet cleaning blog

IME this indicates slime mould somewhere in the sink trap or drains. I normally have to disassemble the plastic plumbing and clean it out. If that's not practical then I pressure wash the sink drain as thoroughly as I can.

I had a day off today! After a lie in and a leisurely pot of tea out on the deck and much grappling with the idea that I should tackle the kitchen, I tackled the kitchen. Grappling with the idea involved deciding to buy a new broom. New brooms do indeed sweep clean.

DD4 walked to the library and got the book she had requested. Her cosmetics that she ordered online arrived today minus one of the samples of perfume she had been promised as part of her Birthday Sample Treasure Trove. So she emailed the shop.

Wimbledon1983 bleach is your friend there.

I am being a bit of a sad act and reading medical journals about pain after stroke to better understand /help some of the residents in the care home I work in. I am not a nurse, just a hca, and I am not getting paid for this but I have some concerns about how dismissive some of my colleagues are about residents pain, especially those with constricures.

Dp has gone to the off-licence to buy rum so I stop over thinking my poorly paid job.

I can hear my dickhead neighbours music clearly through the wall and can't turn my own up because ds is in bed.

Do you have headphones, @BillywigSting?

My mum lent me the DVD of David Copperfield (not the magician, the film adaptation with Dev Patel in it) several weeks ago and I still haven’t got round to watching it

We ordered a new washing machine today and I am disproportionately excited about it. Old one is 11 years old, noisy and been through two sicky babies so we thought we'd treat ourselves

I'm wearing my husbands pyjamas. I may never give them back
