I advised a hysterical parent that sending their child to a private and/or selective school some distance away would probably be a waste of time and money.

Thisisnotreallymyname · 24/06/2021 17:43

I’ve left my pegs on the line and they are not matching colours - so there !

Pinuporc · 24/06/2021 17:46

I've put tea towels and underwear in the same washing machine load.

I've not yet found out (but too lazy to start my own thread) which wash the laundry police use for masks....? I chuck everything (after sorting light/dark) in a 40° or 50° wash but I'm sure there must be some MN rules whether masks should go with pants , teatowels, bedding or on their own...?

Where do I start? I drove my SUV to work - around 2 miles so I could walk or cycle, but fuck that! I received my Amazon order - second one this week. I have a load of washing on and I didn't separate the different fabric types and I'm going to tumble dry most of it (but at least it won't get darked on or spider willies on it). I had a poo in the downstairs bathroom (mind you, it's the only bathroom), I forgot to get anything out of the freezer for tea so I've bought some ready prepared Hunter's chicken. I haven't vacuumed or mopped today. I might have a beer in a bit - on a school night. Sue me Grin

Ifyoudontlaughyouwillcry · 24/06/2021 17:59

I did the school run and did not speak to every parent. I know I’m a witch!

TwoZeroTwoZero · 24/06/2021 18:08

My dc had sugary cereal this morning and then had a packet of crisps with their pack-ups at dinner. I also ate carbs with my dinner.

I wished happy birthday to someone on facebook. I also posted a happy photo on my own fb page.

FrancesHaHa · 24/06/2021 18:22

Shop bought quiche here for tea
DD has been on minecraft for about 2 hours and I'm not going to tell her to get off until tea time
Don't care what book band she's on - in fact not sure what book bands are, don't think her school use them
Work part time even though have no kids at home. Some weeks don't even do any cleaning on my day off

1ittlegreen · 24/06/2021 18:24

I came last night but didn't dunk my cl*t in a beaker of water to wash it 🤷🏼‍♂️

KisstheTeapot14 · 24/06/2021 18:26

Not done any washing up.

God only knows when our bed was last changed.

(DS's fine as he wets the bed so gets changed a good deal!)

Let DS have a small stick of rock for his snack.

(In mitigation for above sins I have finished our tax credits form/posted, carefully filed all my tax stuff by date order - and done a full day of Home Ed and therapy with DS)

Do I have to say 3 Hail Mary's now I have confessed?

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 24/06/2021 18:27

I haven't asked a single question I couldn't have Googled the answer for.

nor did I start a thread asking about stuff that only I could decide

1forAll74 · 24/06/2021 18:29

I have a toilet brush, a white one, and now a neighbour has given me another brush, brand new, She bought it for herself, and never used it,as she heard from some of her friends, that its so so bad, to use them. So now I have a spare, to last me till I die,as I am an oldie ! But wish it wasn't a blue brush,as I don't like anything blue., well only the sky,

allthegoodusernameshavegone · 24/06/2021 18:35

No sins, I’m perfect.

LostThings · 24/06/2021 18:35

My in-laws popped round without arranging it first, and I didn't mind.

Xtraincome · 24/06/2021 18:36

Just had my cheeky daily fag in the garden while DDs are on ipads.

Georgyporky · 24/06/2021 18:37

I like my husband - well, most days.

yeOldeTrout · 24/06/2021 18:45

haven't had a shower since yesterday -- may not get one before next week, come to think of it

caspersmagicaljourney · 24/06/2021 19:03

Do people really do that?😕 My life is too busy to be bothered about matching peg colours, seriously😁

I have eaten both bars of an orange twix,,

allthegoodusernameshavegone · 24/06/2021 19:14

MidsummerMimi · 24/06/2021 19:27

I’m sorry to say I commit terrible sins everyday.
I don’t wash fruit before eating it.
I never lock the house.
I leave car keys in the car.
I have an Aga on all year.

namcybotwinbloom · 24/06/2021 19:31

muddymommy · 24/06/2021 19:32

Forgive me Mumsnet for I have sinned. I slept in the wet patch after a lovely bit of fun with my husband last night and didn't immediately jump out of bed to change the sheets.
I drive a car without a catalytic converter and it's loud, really loud!
I go back to bed in the morning once husband and son have left for work/school. The dog comes with me, in fact, encourages me!
I ram junk into cupboards and spray furniture polish around before my husband comes home so it smells like I have done housework instead of sunbathing or shopping.
I pick my17 year old DS's washing up from his bedroom floor, make him a packed lunch every day, cook all his meals after asking what he would like to eat. Even if I make him a different meal to us.
Since I stopped giving a fuck what everyone else thinks or does I have never been so happy. Maybe it's the HRT kicking in? Might double drop some tomorrow!!

JellyNellie · 24/06/2021 19:35

I get along with my FIL and often ring each other for a catch up.
I have a step mother and we speak several times a day with "love you" at the end of every call.
I'm a stay at home mum and we all live of DH wages.
My children don't have a set bed time but are asleep before 8pmmost nights and my youngest 2 normally fall to sleep on the sofa then are taken to bed.
They also play in the back garden while I get on with house hold chores.
The list goes on 🤣🤣
I also have a loo brush
