Come and tell me your dull and unexciting news 3: The saga continues

[ReallySpicyCurry]

Crack on, as you were, need a lie down and a bit of cosseting after the non stop thrill ride of the last thread. Just take it slow, ok?

I'm going to do a big whites wash, and I am going to bake a cake for my mother's birthday

Just made a lovely breakfast of sausage, bacon, hash brown and white pudding for a treat.
Today I'm going to clear out the recycling (mostly Amazon boxes from the deliveries) and go to the bottle bank

Going to breakfast shortly. Only have in mushrooms bread muffins cheese tomatoes. Ground coffee.

That'll do, right?

i have set up DH's VoiceTracer so that he can record the talks he gives for those that cannot attend due to the plague.

I just realized that in order to set up the new set of shelves, I have to empty a 4x4 Kallax full of books on both sides and then pull it about 20 cm to the right and then fill it again.
I am calmly not looking forward to this.

Eggs as well

I made waffles for DD1 and me. DD2 came down so I gave her mine. There was enough left to make some more for me.

I’m the only one up after an absolutely awful nights sleep. Even the dog is still in bed.

I'm still in bed at 11am.

I love black pudding but somehow I've never tried white pudding. I should do something about this. For now, I'm drinking coffee and contemplating getting dressed to go out for lunch.

@BamboozledandBefuddled I alternate, one week i buy black pudding, the next i buy white pudding, both delicious.

1yo had a big fall this morning, he split his lip badly and there was so much blood . He has gone for a nap now.

Ds1 went out with his dp to get the few bits of shopping I forgot, so i got ds1's birthday presents wrapped ready for Friday.

Going to put a chicken in the oven at 12 and hopefully have a lazy afternoon, will be watching the F1.

I've done it - the Kallax has been moved and all the books are back in their homes.

Had to google "hash browns" - that's what I would call Reibekuchen - delicious!!! But I would eat this with pumpernickel and beet syrup.

This is my first post on the thread since Friday.

I've been doing extremely uninteresting and mundane things since I last posted.

A lovely big bee has just flown into some flowers in the garden.

I was mucking around with the notes app on my phone and you can do a checklist. So I made a list of all the jobs and activities I want to achieve this week. Then when you save it and tick a task it crosses it out for you. Riveting but it's made me look forward to a productive week ahead.

I discovered this too, it’s so satisfying.

I was influenced into trying a cleaning/organising ap. Clearly all I've done so far is fiddle around customising it, rather than actually completing any tasks. When I ran out of things to customise and it was looking like there was a real risk I might have to do some of the listed things, I noticed it had a Christmas module. Opened that and it starts 13 weeks ahead of the 25th.

Decided to have a little lie down in awe of that level of planning.

Bleepbloopblarp - let's hope there is a sale soon!

I am completely stuffed! I had lunch (well Sunday dinner) early due to coming into work this afternoon. Now feel really full.Cannot really have a snooze at reception If it isn't too exciting to know this, I had:

Veggie sausage toad in the hole
Rather smashed potatoes (still had skin on)
Spinach mornay - should have had this with some spinach but forgot.
Onion gravy

Yum!

Tried to sort out my wardrobe but no room for my jackets and anyway, the bloody pole fell down again. Bloody flimsy thing (yes I am pissed off, can you tell?).

I will have to find the other wardrobes rail/pole thing and maybe put a few things in there. I haven't used it as a hanging wardrobe as it is even flimsier and drives me mad.

DH has borrowed his mum's carpet cleaner machine and the front room carpet has come up quite nicely.

I've been listening to Elaine Paige as an excuse to stay in the kitchen where the radio is, and not go and do my ironing.

DH has done 2 tip runs today. For a small house we don’t half seem to be able to store up a tonne of shite!

We’re having chippy chips for tea with slow cooked beef & carrots. The laziest tea ever apart from DH having to go out to get the chips (best chippy here doesn’t deliver but it’s worth going for them).

The tomato plants were parched. I watered them but the watering can leaked and now my jeans are wet.

I am going to make some packed lunches for tomorrow then do a bit of the ironing mountain. I won't do all of it because it would take days.

I ironed DS’s uniform today. It’s the first time I’ve ironed anything (aside from seeing projects, to press out seams and things) for several years.

I am not looking forward to this new phase of ironing things.

Sewing projects, that should read.

I've painted the coat cupboard and bath claw feet
