Myself and DH are on the sofa with coffee. He’s reading the newspaper online and I’m MNetting.

We’re going into town today to do some shopping (not in the UK) and have a socially distanced ramble.

Dinner tonight is ribeye steaks with browned butter sauce. Can’t wait!

Seafog, you sound like Superwoman. 🙂
Moving is rotten at the best of times, but to be moving so far while incapacitated is surely hell on legs.
Wishing you and yours much love, a smooth and uncomplicated move, and the happiest of times in your new home.

DH is in bed, DS1 is in his bedroom chilling out, DS2 is on a sleepover and we miss him and I must stop eating biscuits and go to bed.

All very peaceful here.

@MartiniDry thank you for such kind wishes! I am no super woman, just doing the best I can, while trying not to turn into a crazy pantsGrin
But dang I cant wait to drive across Canada , sea to sea, cause that has been a dream of mine for a long while!

What are we up to this evening?

I’m still on the sofa Grin we’ve just had dinner and are relaxing with the cats and watching Netflix. Some show DH is into called Cursed. I’m not really paying attention because I’m planning all of the Christmas treats from that thread I shouldn’t have opened Grin

We had a peaceful afternoon ending in roast chicken and a couple of g&ts. Both DC through the bath, hair washed and in PJs. Biggest one downstairs again watching something with DH before bed and littlest one upstairs with me having a snuggle in our bed with a spot of watching tractors on the iPad before stories and bed time.

Everyone is clean and ready for bed. All stuff sorted for school in the morning and got that peaceful Sunday evening feeling.

DH and I may possibly have another g&t when DC in bed (me definitely!) and we're going to watch something before an early night ourselves.

We're watching Enola Holmes - ds 14 thinks Milly Bobby Brown is 'fit' so he is gracing us with his presence. It's quite good but I can't unsee her as eleven.

I have just told my teens they can not have all the lights on in every room. (Not a new rule they know this). One argues that some famous you tuber does it so must be ok. I explain said you tuber is a millionaire several times over. Then my teen tells me not to be so poor then that i am embarrassing!!! Then gives me a barrage of verbal abuse. Said teen is now having to get ready for bed as I am not being spoken to like that. (My exh speaks to me like that so kids think they can too, teen hormones contributing to situation).

I've been watching Dr Zhivago on BBc iplayer and then I went and had a bath. Now I'm going to make a cup of redbush and then go to bed. Probably listening to Desert Island Disks or a podcast to get me to sleep.
