Good morning Mumsnet! What are you up to today?

[lucysmam]

I'm just having my usual cuppa, in the kitchen, listening to the birds outside.

There's one load of washing to do, and I need to edit my Tesco shop. I've filled a basket with yarn for a crochet project too, I'm just deciding whether to add anything else or be sensible about what I can reasonably use!

Apart from that, we're going to try and get back into a normal-ish routine this week; so we'll bake for the week, & everyone will chip in with half an hour's cleaning/tidying after tea.

I've got a gammon in the slow cooker for later on & we'll make some kind of pudding for tonight as well. I haven't decided yet whether the gammon will become a roast dinner.

I should have plenty of time for my crochet project as well.

What about all of you? :)

I’ve been out for a run, come home and showered. Put a load of washing on and changed my sheets.
That’s it for me on the boring part of the day
I think all the dc are still asleep, dh is downstairs watching match of the day and I’m lying on my clean bed about to start a new book.
We will go for a walk later on, probably light the fire this afternoon/evening, dh will do a roast chicken. He’s also doing some boring project in the garden.
Just another very chilled out Sunday.

FDH and i have just argued who is going to fill the car up with petrol- we both wantr to do it because we have not been out for ages.

Then making a red velvet cake and a mushroom stroganoff for dinner.

I just trod on some cat vomit in DC2’s room so am going to clean that up then wash my hair. DC1 just told me her homework will take all day (she is 9 and has to do a presentation about a specific topic related to space and I have to work out how to record it and upload it). I wanted to take them out in the sunshine at some point. Then cook dinner (risotto), the traumatic experience of washing DCs’ hair, getting ready, going to work for a night shift.

I’ll probably go out for a walk with the pooch in a little while, I’ve not long got up and this is my first lie in this week as I’ve been making sure DC is up for school again this week.

Made myself a smoothie with my swish new blender and I’ve just sat enjoying that.

Got a couple of loads of washing to do later.

I’m working on finishing a crochet project at the minute and am trying not to order any more until I’ve used up my yarn stash.

We’re having toad in the hole later 😋

We've walked the dog, had a leisurely brunch of Turkish eggs and pita bread, done a litter pick with the kids and got a huge bin bag full, lots of lazy reading, about to go to the park to make the most of the sunshine.

Later on we have to tidy the house, clean the kitchen and order uniform and school shoes in the next size up, so there's time to try on and return if we need to before school starts on the 8th.

Roast chicken, garlic fried potatoes and a big green salad with avocado, dill and walnuts for dinner!
