Sewing 18th century sleeve ruffles. As you do.

earthyfire · 17/10/2020 21:29

Just had a Chinese takeaway, drinking red wine and watching strictly.

EnglishRose1320 · 17/10/2020 21:30

Having finally settled a rather over tired and grumpy ds, I need to sneak past the other ds to claim the last chocolate pudding, then hopefully enjoy that and a g+t with some crap t.v.

Drinking far too much wine and swooning over Jason Manford on The Cube. Living my best life to be fair Grin

ShipshapeShore · 17/10/2020 21:33

Crocheting the sweet pea blanket from Attic 24. I learnt from Bella Coco, just couldn't do it until I followed Sarah-Jane do it on YouTube.

I made a pair of pants for a barbie out of a balloon earlier (at DD's request). I did it happily then sat there and thought "well that was an odd thing to do." Grin

In bed already. Have a stinking cold so trying to arrange my pillows into a sitting up position so I can breathe. Did fuck all for most of this year and the weekend I have something important on I get a tossing cold. Hmm Not to mention the fact that I'm going to cough through the service and be treated like a pariah. God I love working with children...

Mj2196 · 17/10/2020 21:36

(Low alcohol!)wine watching officer and a gentleman whilst cluster feeding ds 😬

jessstan1 · 17/10/2020 21:43

Strictly! Takeaway.

MJMG2015 · 17/10/2020 21:46

[quote lucysmam]@MrsJonesAndMe thank you, I'll take a look. I'm sure it's nowhere near as hard as it feels right now![/quote]
There are a number of good you tubers, it's just a matter of finding one you click with.

I wore the rewind/pause/play buttons out on my iPad!! 🤣

You're very talented, you'll get the hang of it. My top tip is start with granny squares, they're much easier than starting with a chain & doing rows!

Itchybush · 17/10/2020 21:47

Tried to hang my clock on the wall. Couldn't work the new drill so threw a tantrum and drank 4 cans of budweiser then went to bed. I'm 38 Hmm

GuyFawkesHadTheRightIdea · 17/10/2020 21:47

Stuffed myself with Chinese takeaway. Now trying to block out the hundredth play of baby shark lullabies hoping it does the trick this time and he falls asleep. I'd like get an hours telly before I crash out myself. In fact at this rate I'll be asleep first 😂

Sarahlou63 · 17/10/2020 21:54

DP and I completed the Times concise Jumbo crossword (a Saturday tradition). He ate reheated tuna pasta bake, I nicked a couple of bits while researching my social security contributions from the UK and Ireland. He's now gone to bed and I've scoffed a bowl of ice cream with hot chocolate sauce.

Rock 'n' roll!

Letmegetthisrightasawoman · 17/10/2020 21:58

Lying in the spare bed with DS(2), who has finally fallen asleep. Trying to decide whether to do the finances tonight or not...

MouldySoup · 17/10/2020 22:01

Dicking about on my phone with Netflix in the background.

I'm bored as fuck.

OnceUponAMidnightBeery · 17/10/2020 22:05

I’m debating whether to deflea my dog now or go to bed. I’ll get nibbled anyway.

delilahbucket · 17/10/2020 22:09

Was doing my VAT return until about 9 and now I'm drinking home made cider while snuggled under a blanket. I'm so tired, I'll be off to bed soon. Rock and roll!!

Coldbatteredpuddings · 17/10/2020 22:10

I watched some weird musical octonauts episode about spiky sea stars with my son. Then I went to bed at 9pm and have spent the last hour buggering about on the internet. Adulting at it's finest 😬

supercee · 17/10/2020 22:13

@Tana433 That's the one I'm on!! Up to episode 4 and enjoying it so far.

Mylittlesandwich · 17/10/2020 22:15

We came up to bed about an hour ago. I "treated" myself to a fancy glass of Diet Coke with plenty of ice. DS is getting over strep throat and is still pretty grouchy. We watched the wall and now we're watching the cube which I recorded.

Redcrayons · 17/10/2020 22:20

Strictly with a couple of glasses of wine. Best night I’d had for a while to be honest.

I used to enjoy ‘helping’ making stuff when mine were little.

FatGirlShrinking · 17/10/2020 22:23

DD lost a tooth and decided she would write a letter to the tooth fairy asking for a reply, one of the little shits in her class has been telling her the tooth fairy and santa aren't real so she wants proof they are. She's only 6 and too little to lose belief in magic so I'm trying to write a magical looking reply in teeny tiny fairy looking writing on tissue paper with glitter.

Bloody kids!

Gingaaarghpussy · 17/10/2020 22:42

Currently sitting under a duvet and blanket on my reclining chair mumsnetting, my face is no longer feeling like its going to fall off due to a tooth abscess. proper painkillers.
I keep trying to watch films, but my attention span is currently tiny due to pain and mental health.
When my oldest son was in preschool he was cast as a camel in their xmas play, he had a camel coloured jumper and a mask I made, complete with curly eyelashes. Sadly he was the only one that actually looked like a camel. His teachers were so impressed they asked me if I'd do something the next year. Yeah no.
