Was going to do a pork roast for tea as I couldn’t be bothered yesterday but my tum’s been a bit sensitive so I’ll have something lighter. DD12 is as ever in her room. Proud of her as her name was on the list of pupils that have consistently handed in 100% of their schoolwork. DH has been on a bike ride. Very cold! I keep thinking about getting fit but that’s as far as it goes! Can’t wait to go swimming in the sea. I thought about joining a Facebook group who go all year round but I ended up putting pressure on myself & think I’m better off on my own. I absolutely love it. I’d like to get back into snorkelling again & try paddle boarding, although I imagine that’s quite difficult as you have to stand up. Going to ring my Mum in a bit, then watch Corrie. More “ Married At First Sight Australia “ later & “ Long Lost Family “ which I can never watch without crying.

DH is just putting the children to bed, and I laid on the sofa messing around on the iPad. Once DH has had a Beth we are going to watch another episode of Traces.

Cooking a chicken, ham and leek pie. Then onto the umpteenth episode of How to get Away with Murder.

ScatteredMama82 · 08/02/2021 19:27

I’m on my own with the kids as DH is away for work. One is on PS4, the other is sitting at my feet playing with Lego. I need to leave the warm fire and get him ready for bed really but it’s nice just sitting here!

nicky2512 · 08/02/2021 19:29

Dd doing work for uni in her room. Has just ordered herself some lovely bargain new boots. Showed me them and said she might not as they weren’t really practical. She can’t be mine!! Told her to wise up and get them bought - you’re not meant to think about practical at 18!!
Ds finishing his maths homework. Dh drying dishes.
I’m going to go a quick walk with the dog then watch tv with Dd.

Children quietly getting on with he and one already gone to bed. Me supposedly crocheting but posting here instead. I've smuggled some KitKats upstairs for later, that's the highlight of my day! Will watch something stupid in a bit. DH out at work.

inquietant · 08/02/2021 19:30

Sorry, 'he' should be hw as in homework.

Girlintheframe · 08/02/2021 19:31

Just had tea and been watching Flowers again on More4.

DH away out with the dog, think I'm going to go to bed and finish my book

WorriedMillie · 08/02/2021 19:35

We’ve migrated upstairs and we’re lying on our bed. DD (7) has just come in, with a little rucksack full of her Christmas chocolate (she doesn’t have a sweet tooth!) so we may get stuck into that!

Deereamer · 08/02/2021 19:36

DS is in bed, fast asleep with his cuddly penguin. DD is in bed, eating toast (she’s not really hungry - just using it as an excuse to try and get back downstairs 🙄). DH is downstairs cooking us some tea and we are going to go to bed early tonight (hopefully before 9) so we can look at garden design pictures on the Ipad. It’s all rock and roll here Grin

dementedma · 08/02/2021 19:36

DD (adult) shut in her room as usual. she has MH issues so just leaving her to it.
DS on his screens and eating a bowl of cereal having just had chicken, wedges and peas.
DH watching football, as usual.
I’m sitting on my bed on MN. Also as usual

LindaEllen · 08/02/2021 19:39

DP made us a chicken stir fry for tea and it was lovely. I'm catching up on soaps then having a shower while he and DSS play on their computers. Then we'll probably watch a film or something before bed.

Same as every other night at the moment really 😂.

VioletCharlotte · 08/02/2021 20:01

Just finished dinner (jacket potato with veggie chillie). Feeling pleased with myself for doing a yoga class on Zoom. Need to drag myself of the sofa and go for a shower. DS (19) has just finished a work out and is about to take the dog out for a walk (rather him than me as it's bitter cold). I'm watching season 2 of Line of Duty at the moment so I'll probably watch another episode, before going to bed with my book. Living the dream!

Shinyletsbebadguys · 08/02/2021 20:22

DC in bed. Ds1 watching a dvd on his little player (about to be switched off) ds2 manifestly not watching his dvd player as he lost it due to continued mid level buggering about all day so he is sulking as only a 5 year old can because clearly the world is out to get him Hmm. Nothing to do with him of course because apparently hiding seaweed in your brothers wellies is perfectly acceptableHmm

DP and I frankly are doing nothing of any level of productivity. He is vaguely starting then getting bored with games and I'm scrolling mumsnet.

The ddog is sleeping heavily before one of us leaves the room for a 5283 cup of tea before having a panic attack when she realises we escaped (to the next room Hmm) chasing after us and falling down the step. Then pretending she meant to do that.

We are possibly the most boring family on earth Grin

needadvice54321 · 08/02/2021 20:46

DH and I are watching Coronation Street, DS1 is doing college work and DS2 is watching TV before bed

vampirethriller · 08/02/2021 20:51

Toddler in bed. I'm knitting and watching I am A Killer on Netflix. I just ate the last of the Christmas biscuits.

WalkingMeAway · 08/02/2021 20:55

DS is asleep in bed.
DH is watching a Ted Bundy documentary.
I’m sitting on my DD’s bed while she watches nonsense on You Tube. It’s the only time I feel like I spend time with her 😂
H and I are meeting at 9pm to watch Marcella

HexWitch · 08/02/2021 20:56

Made fajitas for tea now DD10 is playing on Xbox whilst on FaceTime with her friend. Much giggling and chattering. I'm sprawled on the sofa next to her finishing my cuppa and contemplating taking the dogs out but it's -6 here so possibly just let them blitz around the garden for 10 minutes instead.

IsitSummeryet21 · 08/02/2021 20:58

In Bath. Dh just got In. 1 in bed. 1 gaming and 1 downstairs with dh playing.
Super lazy and did frozen pizzas for tea. Was meant to do Spanish chicken oh well will do that tomorrow now.

clockstopper · 08/02/2021 21:00

Dd is writing an essay about Piggy and I'm about to wash my hair and get an early night. Living our best life Hmm

EternalOptimist7 · 08/02/2021 22:18

Piggy from Lord of the Flies?

HexWitch · 08/02/2021 22:32

Piggy from Roblox? DC are roblox mad in this house and it's clearly rubbing off!

clockstopper · 09/02/2021 04:23
