Ah that sucks for him Zing. Maybe it'll be a useful wake up for him?

Thank god it's Friday. I'm completely zonked this week, so glad it's over.

KurtWilde · 02/07/2021 22:29

How was everyone's week? I've got a poorly littlest DD (not covid if the LFT test is anything to go by), so I'm expecting a sleepless night. Obviously if her symptoms change I'll take her to the drive thru test place - quicker than getting a PCR through the post. She had positive covid in January and you'd never have guessed she was poorly at all. Going by that I'm thinking this is a summer cold by the sheer amount of snot she's producing 🤢

I came up to bed super early with a bottle of wine and some leftovers from the Mexican I made earlier.

It'll be a quiet weekend here, gardening, mostly, weather allowing.

How are your dd and dgs doing now that they are home, Wilde?

We're supposed to be going to a bbq tomorrow. Weather's not looking very positive...

KurtWilde · 02/07/2021 23:08

Lucy they're doing just fine, DD is healing well and baby wilde is just perfect. So far he's slept through til 5am every night, feed, then asleep til 9!! Thanks for asking Smile

Ah @KurtWilde your poor DD, summer colds are no fun!

Have you done any gardening? We woke up to fog!

I have had a busy day with 3 friends over for lunch, meeting our DS, it was fab, felt just like normal times. and now I am exhausted, waiting for the dishwasher to finish so I can start the second load....

Is everyone else having a good Saturday?

UnlimitedChipsAndSalsa · 03/07/2021 22:12

Got a bit of work done, saw a friend, and England won. Overall, a great day. Hoping to catch up on the sleep that DD robbed from me last night. Smile

KurtWilde · 04/07/2021 09:37

Morning all, bit of a crappy weekend with little one not well. Think I've picked it up as well so yay! Nice little workout for the immune system I guess. And at least it's not covid again.

Settling in for a cosy day of Netflix/Prime/shouty YouTubers, pjs, lots of cuppas and likely a takeaway later. Hope everyone has a lovely Sunday!

Hoping a day in bed does you some good, Kurt. It sounds lovely (minus the being sick part Smile).

NigellaSeed · 04/07/2021 19:10

@Zing - I saw you on another thread mention a blanket you made. It was very cool. My M"IL" is bringing me a sewing machine when they visit in 2 weeks and I'm so excited. I've always wanted to learn - but been too intimidated to learn.

KurtWilde · 04/07/2021 20:43

Evening all, lazy day has done us all wonders actually. It's been a hectic couple of weeks. I think I was just a bit run down, coupled with hay fever. Even little DD is brighter tonight.

We had Pizza Hut for dinner. I'm not the biggest fan but I was outvoted 🤣

This morning at like 5am it was like BAM monsoon!

UnlimitedChipsAndSalsa · 08/07/2021 20:53

It was a busy week here, but the weekend is nearly here. I'm not much of a football fan but am looking forward to Sunday's game. Hope you are all well.

LucysSkyDiamonds · 08/07/2021 23:49

I'm starting my weekend tonight...dh has been plying me with (his) birthday drinks since we're both taking tomorrow off. 《Hic》

KurtWilde · 09/07/2021 13:11

Afternoon all, how is everyone? DS is counting the hours to the match on Sunday! I hope he gets the result he wants 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Work (freelancer) is finally picking up again. Phew! Looks like a busy period ahead.

Hi all 👋 UPDATE!
Date number 5 tomorrow... eek Grin
He's cooking me dinner

KurtWilde · 09/07/2021 21:03

Ooh feather how lovely! Smile

OP posts:
LucysSkyDiamonds · 09/07/2021 21:16

Ah, I remember the night I cooked dh dinner for the first time...enjoy it. Wink

UnlimitedChipsAndSalsa · 10/07/2021 20:50

How exciting, feather. Oh, you must be on the date now.

KurtWilde · 10/07/2021 23:15

How was dinner, feather, or are you still on your date? Ooh I hope he's a really good cook!

OP posts:
featherbird · 10/07/2021 23:50

@KurtWilde @UnlimitedChipsAndSalsa @LucysSkyDiamonds

On the way home feeling like a giddy teenager Grin
We cooked together and he had bought all the things he thought I would like (I have a particular diet) he was really thoughtful.

KurtWilde · 10/07/2021 23:54

Ooh feather I'm so pleased for you! That sounds lovely! Dare we say you've got a good one there or is it still too early to tell? He does seem a bit fab though. Very thoughtful!

OP posts:
featherbird · 11/07/2021 00:31

He really does seem like a good one but I'm too scared to think it too much. I reckon I've gotten so used to the idiots I'm not sure what to do lol.
He did ask if I wanted to stay as it was getting late and he would take the sofa but declined. I'm far too weak Blush

KurtWilde · 11/07/2021 00:51

He does seem like one of the good guys feather! Fingers crossed he continues to be so!

It sounds like you might be inching towards staying over pretty soon then? Grin

LucysSkyDiamonds · 11/07/2021 01:48

Sounds like a really lovely date feather. Long may it last. ❤

I'm just in the door and my autocorrect is telling me I've had at least a glass too many but I was at a fantastic dinner with friends I haven’t seen in a yearr and they are a bunch of mighty women.
