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?

@QuestionableMouse thanks for the tip.

@user1498572889

Next time go for linen voiles - so much nicer than net curtains and work just as well.

I’ve put coffee on.

Discovered Natural History Museum online shop. Next few birthday presents sorted. Smile

Ninkanink · 10/09/2020 09:55

Oh yes I love museum shops! I have got my eyes on a few things from the V&A.

I've just ordered vinyl flooring for the office

Just had disappointing scrambled egg on toast; the egg was pale and bland.

I've started cutting down green tea by drinking half a thumbs worth less each time. I thought about doing a thumb but that's quite a lot.

Just back from walking the dog - an uneventful experience for me, but the absolute height of excitement for the dog.

I have emptied the dishwasher and had to re-wash one cup which contained some uncleared detritus.

Also I have cleaned the washing line as there were a couple of cobwebs on it.

@cheeseychovolate

I'm looking forward to getting my oven professionally cleaned tomorrow Smile
Envy Grin Has it happened yet?

@Ninkanink after searching linen voiles due to your recommendation, I bought some new Alvine nets from Ikea for my bedroom (though not linen as I'll look for those for our living room) for my bedroom which is being rearranged this weekend. I was a bit excited at being able to order and have it delivered as it wasn't extortionate as the last time I looked at home delivery.

My dh and my bil are pollarding a tree in their dads garden. I hope that won't end up being exciting in any way.

We’re having kimchi pork stew tonight. Our first time cooking Korean at home.

I cut down the stem of a faux succulent so that it would fit properly into a little vase. It looks great and adds a bit of visual/textural interest to its corner of the living room.

It’s quite sunny today which is nice. I replanted a plant into the big pot in the corner of our courtyard.

Spudlet · 10/09/2020 12:06

Still no movement here. It’s a cliffhanger, I tell you.

BillywigSting · 10/09/2020 12:09

I need to go and buy packed lunch things for ds but I really can't be bothered.

I have put a load of laundry on but it will have to go on the maiden as it looks very grey outside today.

I'm hungry but don't know what I fancy for lunch.

Truzza · 10/09/2020 12:20

I booked the car in for a service and Mot and got some chicken stock out of the freezer 👍🏻

Teen is at home with a man cold, so I'll make him chicken soup later

Spudlet · 10/09/2020 12:26

We have liftoff!

cheeseychovolate · 10/09/2020 12:28

Oven cleaning under way, I might post a picture after it's done. Struggling to contain my excitement Smile

Truzza · 10/09/2020 12:36

I have just completed removing all the tomato plants and saving the tomatoes from blight.
Looking up green chutney recipes as we speak!!! So thrilling

Taswama · 10/09/2020 12:38

DS2's tooth fell out yesterday morning. We put it under his pillow for the tooth fairy. This morning at breakfast he realised he hadn't checked to see if she had been. I told him to eat his breakfast first and went upstairs to get dressed (and quickly sort out the tooth!).

DorisDaisyMay · 10/09/2020 12:39

I am recovering from an operation where I have needed help out the bath (if we had a shower I could have done that myself). I just worked out a technique to get out on my own!

Maxineputyourredshoeson · 10/09/2020 13:29

DD2’s Covid test was negative that means both DD’s are allowed back at school tomorrow.

Willowkins · 10/09/2020 13:30

I am having my oven cleaned. He put a new light bulb in.

Tonightstheteriyakichicken · 10/09/2020 13:58

Get well soon, DorisDaisyMay Flowers

cheeseislife8 · 10/09/2020 14:10

My chicken casserole tastes better today than yesterday.

Spudlet · 10/09/2020 14:22

@cheeseislife8 They always seem to, I find! I think they marinate overnight.

Just back from a trip to buy dog food, DS has refused to help with baking so he’s all set up with Disney plus and I’m going to bake some brownies and try not to stress too much about my interview tomorrow. Confused

BillywigSting · 10/09/2020 14:24

I have done absolutely no housework whatsoever today so need to hang the washing, iron, put the dry clothes away. do a set of dishes and hoover in the next 40 minutes.

I do not forsee this happening.
