Lotus biscuits/spread - any of it. Used to LOVE it, now I'm completely sick of it.

Prosecco - liked the taste bit good grief it was taken over by the 'dance on the tables and drink Prosecco' gang so that had to go.

Gin - same

There are so many other things. I think lockdown has made me even more grumpy. 😁

Binge watching a series. Will forever more remind me of lockdown.

Beansbitch · 20/02/2021 10:37

MacDuffsMuff · 20/02/2021 10:38

Oh god walking. I used to love walking round our village, now I'm fucking sick of the place.

Films too. I've seen so many films I feel like I never want to watch one ever again!

Muddy walks.

So ducking sick of the mother ducking mud.

Used to love cooking. Gone right off it. Monotonous. Takeaways. Used to be a treat. Now the only treat we have. Sick to death of them

Myself. I used to love myself. Now. Not so much. I’m bored of me.

Lazy weekends indoors.

Cooking. Also takeaways, and ready meals. Or any thinking about food whatsoever.

Chivvying children. Acting cheerful when I’m not.

Laundry.

thebabessavedme · 20/02/2021 10:56

cooking, I used to enjoy it, now I'm just fucking done, I have even lost the ability to plan a weeks menu, its all so fucking boring.

Bobbybobbins · 20/02/2021 10:56

Totally agree with muddy walks.

Being at home so much. No longer relaxing - just boring.

Walking round my fucking neighbourhood.
Running round my fucking neighbourhood.
'Quality time' at home with my family.
Lie ins - now I'd give pretty much anything to get up and do the school run again.

Toocold · 20/02/2021 11:00

Muddy walks, not that keen on the first place but now over them and as much as I like my house, I’m fed up of looking at it and want to go to someone else’s house, anyone will do!

horridhorrid · 20/02/2021 11:00

The same walk, over and over again.

My collection of vintage coffee pots, all sitting on a long shelf in the dining room, daring me to get the duster out. So bored with looking at them now.

BrilliantBetty · 20/02/2021 11:00

My sofa. I'm sick of the sight of it all day long taking up half my living room (it's large and L shape). Sitting on the sofa. Cleaning it. Everything!
The number of hours this sofa has had bottoms on it is unbelievable

NymphInYellow · 20/02/2021 11:02

Cooking. Used to really enjoy chilling in the kitchen with music or a podcast. Now I'm constantly being nagged for food, and the washing up is never ending.

Yes to takeaway. We've eaten loads since first lockdown to 'cheer ourselves up' but they're inevitably a bit Meh. And I've still got to wash up after.

Exercise. Well I never loved it, in fact I hated it, but I was doing Pilates every day and running 2 or 3 times a week. Now I've given up, I'm eating shit and I look like a whale.

Was also going to say my family. (Mostly) lighthearted.

Norwaydidnthappen · 20/02/2021 11:03

Films
Walking
Netflix series’

Basically anything that reminds me of lockdown.

feistyoneyouare · 20/02/2021 11:07

Rose gold things. I love rose gold and I used to love how 'different' it was at one time, now it's everywhere. she says, typing on a rose gold laptop with a rose gold iPad next to her Grin I still love the colour but it doesn't feel special any more.

MaddeningtheUnhelpful · 20/02/2021 11:08

my kids.... Grin
On a serious note, walking the dog. It's an absolute chore now with 3 moaning kids in tow. Usually do it alone where dog is much better behaved, and can be trusted off lead but cannot be trusted at all with the kids around. She's a working type breed so I can command absolute focus but when the kids are around forget it. They all usually end up in lakes together Hmm I miss my lovely peaceful walks with the dog face Sad

AnaisNun · 20/02/2021 11:13

Cooking.

Food in general tbh. Just sick of the endless cook- eat- wash up- shop- cook- eat cycle. Have given up eating anything more time consuming than a quick cold snack when DS isn’t at home and just grab a mid morning fruit or biscuit and have dinner with him in the evening.

Binge watching Netflix is even starting to lose its charm.

Have a touch of ennui at the moment tbh.

Livpool · 20/02/2021 11:13

My lovely kitchen! I sit in it wfh now and I hate it

Laila747 · 20/02/2021 11:16

Sushi.
I made the mistake of telling my OH I loved sushi...
Now he brings home sushi 3/4 times a week Confused

I don’t have the heart to tell him I’m sick to death of it and just want some Pringles!
