Anything Big or small?
Just need some inspiration. Everything seems so gloomy.

Beef and ale stew for dinner tonight. Its been sat in the low oven for about 5 hours and all I need to do is add the cheesy dumplings for the last 20 minutes.

Also looking forward to a long walk tomorrow.

Driving lessons! At the ripe old age of nearly 40, just had my first ever driving lesson and I loved it! Felt very enjoyable and empowering, and I was good at it.

I'm looking forward to starting my postgrad studies in a few weeks.

jitterbugintomybrain · 10/10/2020 18:32

A bike ride with my friends tomorrow.

MrsJonesAndMe · 10/10/2020 19:41

@Wheelyyyy can you share the details of the online panto please?

BaldAndWild · 10/10/2020 19:49

I'm looking forward to having a Sunday roast tomorrow with honey glazed parsnips, cranberry sauce, bread sauce, roast potatoes and cauliflower (as it is much cheaper than it has been recently).

Smokeyrobinson · 10/10/2020 21:31

Looking after my grandson when my daughter goes back to work next month. Smile

Retiring - only 20 months and that's me over and out!! I'm so done with my workplace and all it's related crap. Just cannot wait! Grin

Sleep.

YellowHighlighterPen · 10/10/2020 22:57

Short term - walk with a Meetup group tomorrow and finally finishing getting the house properly clean (long job - it's been ages).

Medium term - half term without essays to do.

Longer term - bastarding covid being over so I can think about dating.

TheChosenTwo · 10/10/2020 22:58

My run tomorrow morning.
Family walk in the afternoon and a pub stop no doubt, followed by a fire and a roast.
Sundays are always my best days.
They used to be the worst day of the week for me and now I absolutely love sundays.

Wheelyyyy · 12/10/2020 12:51

Looking forward to have a tidy house and finished passageway today decorating wise. Wish me luck :)

Sallycinnamum · 12/10/2020 12:56

Our building work starts on Wednesday. Not looking forward to the mess but it's a small extension to our existing kitchen and I've been planning it for four years!

Going to spend some of my spare time this week looking for retro sideboard on ebay.

@elQuintoConyo can I be your friend? Your handmade gifts sound lovely.

TheChosenTwo · 12/10/2020 19:31

Going to bed tonight! Had very little sleep last night so am desperate for bedtime now.
And then the weekend, I’m always looking forward to the weekend Grin

jitterbugintomybrain · 05/01/2021 22:06

Saturday as we are out of isolation then!!

Wannabangbang · 05/01/2021 22:13

Looking forward to us having warm sunny weather eventually, and getting a swimming pool, a slide for the kids and a big lilo for my to lounge on. Think the weather ain't helping my mood tbh, rain rain more rain, its dark when i get up

BogRollBOGOF · 05/01/2021 22:33

Spring bulbs.
The mud drying out.
The spring equinox

I think the government would struggle to ruin those Grin

The next episode of a favorite podcast. It's always funny and always enjoyable and I often share funny bits with dh and my mum!

ilovebagpuss · 06/01/2021 08:19

Being able to meet up with my 3 oldest friends for our weekend away that we have missed last year.
My DD’s being able to go on schools trips with their friends and make fun memories.
Not wearing a mask at work I’ve got such a dry nose.
Going into a packed buzzing pub for a drink
Trying to talk my DH into having some ex battery hens so that might be a nice thing that comes off.
Getting paid so I can order a panini toasty thing I am eyeing.
