I have left the curtains in the top bedroom closed to keep the sun off the room Grin

A friend of DD changed their pronouns to they/ them and I didn’t have a meltdown.

Ha ha this happened to me last week. She's also changed her name to a new unisex one and I am happy to use it.

I left my washing and ironing in the basket for the third day in a row, prior to this it got darked on. My washing also only ever gets split into vaguely lights and darks. Underwear, towels and everything in between goes in together if it's roughly in a similar colour bracket. If it doesn't survive a 1400 spin at 40° it's not fit for purpose.

I let ds play on his kindle before (home) school (bloody covid).

I can't remember the last time I changed the bedsheets but have been meaning to for a week.

I earn next to fuck all (£9p/hr) and can't drive.

I can take or leave gin and don't like wine. My kitchen floor is quite frankly a disgrace.

My ds does no extra curricular stuff that isn't provided by his academy school.

I have amazon prime and despite its distinctly nefarious practices will continue to use it as I am too time poor and cash poor to be wholly ethics driven. Sorry but really ethical living is not doable on my aforementioned shit wage.

I don't think second hand clothes are really all that - though that could well be because my local charity shops are mostly stocked with dead elderly peoples clothes and last years new look sale items that never got worn because they are hideous.

I am fat and not on a diet. In fact I've just had a lovely big piece of sticky ginger cake.

@Honestmary the app is open waiting for 8pm. Don't worry 12/14 are safe in my presence, it's the size 16s you need to watch. I will squeeze my arse into a Pair of Zara mom jeans misses point of thread again

Just got caught having my evening cigarette in the garden by DC.

Lecture received.

newnortherner111 · 23/06/2021 19:58

I had a sentence where no was not the only word in it.

Brightonline · 23/06/2021 20:00

I had a disagreement with my DP and didn't LTB

WingingItSince1973 · 23/06/2021 20:11

Am about to get into my hot tub 🤣

vodkaredbullgirl · 23/06/2021 20:14

Watered my/ndn garden fence.

PyongyangKipperbang · 23/06/2021 20:14

Bedroom

Curtains closed
Bed unmade
Half drunk G&T on the bedside cabinet which I took to bed with me as I finished listening to a radio play. Except I fell asleep and the glass is still there.

Bathroom

I cleaned the loo with a bog brush
I dont own a shower so havent showered the requisite three times an hour
I dont put the loo lid down when I flush thus scattering poo particles with gay abandon

Lounge

I havent hoovered since Friday
Socks live in a big tote bag hanging off the back of a dining room chair and everyone takes their chance at ferretting out a pair

Kitchen

I do not line dry, everything goes in the tumble dryer
Ditto dishwasher
Our washing basket is the square foot of space in front of the washer

Bought a can of G&T on my walk with DD after school and drank it by the stream while she played. Very common according to my mother and akin to walking down the road swigging Special Brew!

Brightonline · 23/06/2021 20:20

I don't even have a lid on my toilet Shock

luckylavender · 23/06/2021 20:21

I used a loo brush

shinynewapple21 · 23/06/2021 20:22

@Nicolastuffedone

Oh! Oh! Just remembered! I’ll be having a bath this evening before bed even although I’ve showered this morning! AND, all towels will be put in the washing basket afterwards!! What do you think about that then?!

Sounds like you are a perfect MNer ! Very clean !

FruityPolos · 23/06/2021 20:27

Turned my alarm off then got up late and didn't have time to shower so used dry shampoo to hide the fact my hair needs a wash.

Did not bath my 4 year old before bed.

I am about to do the washing up while DP plays video games and I haven't even considered LTB.

vodkaredbullgirl · 23/06/2021 20:30

I let my dogs bark for 10 mins in the garden.

OnlyheretovoteonAIBU · 23/06/2021 20:37

I don’t iron anything. At all.
I wear my bra a week before I wash it.
I change my bedclothes once a month.
I shower every other day.

ACPC · 23/06/2021 20:38

I made eye contact with a stranger and said hello to them yesterday. I could swear I felt the ground swell and crack slightly so if if the gates of hell are starting to open you lot can come with me.

Standrewsschool · 23/06/2021 20:39

Just used a towel my husband had used earlier.

Prior to that, I did some ironing.

Brightonline · 23/06/2021 20:41

My dd declared she is nonbinary and I'm not desperately disappointed.

RicherThanYew · 23/06/2021 20:43

My kid drank Irn Bru, watched wrestling and had a Skittles ice cream. Slummy mummy of the year here.

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 23/06/2021 20:55

my daughter was wearing pink today

RicherThanYew · 23/06/2021 21:01

I forgot my best crime. Not just Mumsnet though, might be global. I don't make my cats and dogs get off their sofa or chairs for uninvited animal hating guests who pull faces and ask why I live with such disgusting creatures. 🐶🐱🐷

Nicolastuffedone · 24/06/2021 09:12

shinynewapple21 That’s funny, because I find I’m really not the perfect MN’er! Lots of the things I read on these types of threads just make 🤮 lots of ‘I’m a slattern and I don’t care!’ People taking pride in how slovenly they are…

FuckyouCovid21 · 24/06/2021 09:23

@Pascha

I'm parked up with engine still running to keep charging my phone and listen to the radio at the same time. It's been 5 minutes now.
That's not a mumsnet sin at all, if you were parked up by my house I'd be out there telling you to bugger off. Nothing worse than hearing an engine idling outside your house and the fumes coming through the open window
JustJoinedRightNow · 24/06/2021 09:48

@FuckyouCovid21 but surely you realize it’s a public road and we can park where we like and let our engines idle all day??? (I do agree with you, an idling engine is the worst)
