I’ve just briefly left my bed to start the washing machine, tumble drier, dishwasher and robot vacuum. 10 mins later, I’m now back on mumsnet while the magic machines do all my housework for me Blush

Ha! This sounds great. It's raining so what else is there to do!

BestOption · 08/05/2021 11:37

I've left my bed to make coffee, back now...

No where near any machines.

Woodlandbelle · 08/05/2021 11:37

Grin you are my kind of person. Genius.

I don't have the robot hoover but I love to Potter in the garden in a 'I've been so busy all day' type of way just as dh arrives home when I have been in the bath. Painting toes Grin

Not that he would care

Well tbf we don't sweep much or pound clothes on rocks these days

I was thinking how long my mother would have spent doing the same tasks back in the 70’s. Think she had a basic washing machine but not much else

Enjoy your day. I've not moved much but I did spil washing powder so I had to actual hoover so I'm resting with Mumsnet and coffee ☕

mogloveseggs · 08/05/2021 11:40

That sounds like hard work op. Is there not an app so you can start them whilst still in bed? Grin

Mrsjayy · 08/05/2021 11:41

Your mum would have had a twin tub washing machine and probably had specific wash days

Breathmiller · 08/05/2021 11:43

Same here. First day off on a while. Storm outside and no heating! It's freezing . So we are all under duvets and get up now and again to do a quick job. Washing done and next one on. Dh did the kitchen. Ds did his room floor. All back under duvets.

What's your next plan?
I might tidy my room next

Got ya beat.

I'm still in bed, mumsnetting and DH brought me a coffee.
I haven't been up as I pee'd enough through the night. I may run to the bathroom soon and brush my teeth though. It's gross leaving them so long.

If there's laundry on, or the hoovering done, then it has nothing to do with me.

OhRene · 08/05/2021 11:57

And knowing my darling husband, that sound I can hear now is indeed the washing machine.
He also just popped in the room this very second to put some of my clean clothes away in my drawers.

minniemomo · 08/05/2021 11:59

Cup of tea in bed got up at 11 as hungry, just finished eating brunch and dp cleaned the stove. Off to majestic, best use of a rainy day

dappledsunshine · 08/05/2021 12:09

I'm so envious, I really want a robot hoover. Which one do you have op?

WillYouDoTheFandango · 08/05/2021 12:14

DS and his are suffering with bad colds. We’re watching flushed away in bed and feeling sorry for ourselves. I have had to get up for calpol, tea and cereal so far though

clpsmum · 08/05/2021 12:16

I haven't bothered with any housework at all robotnic or not does though out-lazy you?

sueelleker · 08/05/2021 12:29

Pouring with rain when I got up, so I'm sitting in my dressing gown on MN. The dogs keep staring at me though, so may have to get dressed and take them out. (We have got a garden, so they're not actually housebound)

ILoveMondayMornings · 08/05/2021 12:33

Yep.

Still in bed and didn't wake up till 11am. DC made me a coffee, had a McDonald's delivered. DC emptied and refilled dishwasher and cleaned out the fridge ready for shopping to arrive.

I won't be getting up until 5ish when my DP arrives.

I got a basic Eufy after reading about them on here, it doesn’t exactly do a full hoovering job but it does enough to make everything look a bit fresher after a good trundle around!

Same! Although this thread is making me realise I should probably put the washing machine on.
magicstar1 · 08/05/2021 12:49

Ha, I stayed in bed while DH got up to walk the dog. He’s emptied the dishwasher, made a fry for breakfast, brought it to me while I watched tv, and now I’m contemplating a shower. That’s a lazy start Grin

dappledsunshine · 08/05/2021 12:52

Thanks @Moltenpink that's the one I'm considering.

sunflowersandbuttercups · 08/05/2021 13:02

My washing machine connects to the wifi so I can start it from my bed Grin

Winner 👏

Pumpkyumpkyumpkin · 08/05/2021 14:15

I made breakfast. That is the sum total of today's achievements. I've been on the sofa all morning under a blanket, now DH is watching the footie in there I'm back in bed with a book. Not doing anything at all today for a changeable, it can wait till tomorrow.
