Can’t believe it’s Friday again! Haven’t worked today so got a few things done, including a top up shop at Aldi & a visit to Pets at Home for hay. I was feeling really horrible ( pain which led to exhaustion) but it seems to have eased off a bit. I have a docs appointment in a couple of weeks but will try to bring it forward. Wonder if it’s menopause related. I was planning to cook a beef massaman curry for tea but couldn’t be bothered so we’ll have battered fish, chips & peas when DH gets home. DD12 has had a couple of days off school & next week is halfterm. We’re seeing DD’s friend that she’s known since they were babies & also trying to arrange a sleepover with her best friend, although it’s a nightmare because the Mum never knows when her ex is going to see her daughter until the last minute. I couldn’t put up with that as it’s virtually impossible to plan anything! At least the possibility of a sleepover has spurred DD on to sort out her room. She even hoovered earlier! It really was an absolute tip. The carpet is several interesting colours so we need to get that steam cleaned. I am getting quotes for a one off deep clean, minus DD’s room & DH’s office. He is going to try & clear that soon. It’s a dumping ground for stuff we didn’t know where to put when we moved house.

I'm drinking a glass of Rioja and eating a spinach omelette Grineveryone else had homemade macaroni with bacon made by my 16 yr old but I'm veggie and on a diet so did my own. Been to work (part time) visited a friend,did my work out and walked the dog. We are going to London in half term to the natural history museum as my youngest has never been.

Dc have played out on the field all day, they are now in their rooms gaming waiting on uber to deliver their tea. We've been gardening and popped out for a few fridge bits to tide us over until delivery day. Dh and I now just pottering with a Wine

Prokupatuscrakedatus · 28/05/2021 19:48

DH is on a work + private zoom call with a collegue, DD has finished her uni work for today, DS is reading and I am on here while doing my foot exercises. It is not raining at the moment. Gastronomy has reopened and for the first time in ages I can hear people laughing, talking and making music in the streets. Smile

Toddler DS has just gone to bed after a day with Nanna and Grandad while we worked. They kept him out a little late so gave him dinner and he got to go to bed at 8 instead after doing his jigsaws. Dinner is in the oven and I’m relaxing enjoying the quiet evening and debating popping back online to polish off a bit of work before the long weekend.

tobee · 28/05/2021 20:13

Ds birthday yesterday and he went out so we have just had a Wahaca takeaway from deliveroo. Very nice!

DS playing fifa - feel a bit sorry for him as all his mates on holiday so he has no one to play with. Older DS in bed eating breakfast watching some shite on the iPad. DH just gone back to bed after very early, long walk with dog.

I’m having a brew on the sofa scrolling the internet, listening to the dog snore and thinking about packing for our holiday on Monday.

julesover40 · 29/05/2021 08:32

I'm having a cuppa in bed, first sat DH has been to work in over a year so making the most of it.

Both dd's still in bed. Dd1 exhaustedafter a week of assessments at school and Dd2 had a freind over yesterday evening, so sleeping off the excitement of a bit of normality!
Popping to town this morning to pick up a few click n collect orders and hopefully some bbq stuff then looking forward to a few days off work enjoying the promised sunshine

Watching tv and drinking tea. DS went out last night so is fast asleep and will remain so for a while. Have my second vaccine later and then seeing a friend for tea.

Waveafterwaveslowlydrifting · 29/05/2021 08:41

Just woken up, bad case of laryngitis for me so I'm planning on doing fuck all today. Bath, eat nice things, no talking, watching mean girls with DD later.
DS is up and building lego on his own having raided the fruit bowl. DD and DH still snoring.

I will send the 3 of them out to the park later so I can nap in peace

Dinotruxagain · 29/05/2021 08:54

DH has just left with DS4 to visit the grandparents for the weekend, they won't be home until 4pm on Monday!
I have an entire weekend to myself, glorious!
I've headed back to bed with a brew and may paint the shed and pressure wash the patio this afternoon.
Thats as far as my plans have got.

LeafBeetle · 29/05/2021 08:56

Just back fro the local supermarket with croissants, bagels and muffins.
Want an easy, filling breakfast as we're off on a mini-break and we won't get there until after lunch.
