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

Oh yes, almost forgot - I am going to walk to work soon as I DON'T DRIVE!!!!

MissTrip82 · 25/06/2021 01:30

Well I wore my shoes inside without trekking dog shit through the house.

Unheard of.

Mandalay246 · 25/06/2021 01:39

I left school shortly after my 16th birthday, didn't go to uni, and don't have a career. I'm almost too ashamed to admit this - please don't judge me too harshly.

I ordered more of my favourite Yankee candles Blush

@KisstheTeapot14

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?

Oh you need to say a trillion. On your knees now, doit girl

Used Zoflora to wash my floors.

MaMelon · 25/06/2021 07:04

I went faster than the stupid, pointless, arbitrary 20mph speed limit on a deserted A road.

I put Zoflora in my wash

I filled my 14 year old DSs water bottle every day this week because he doesn’t
get up in time

maddiemookins16mum · 25/06/2021 07:20

We ate a whole chicken, me (56), DH (59), DD (17) and DMIL (89). A whole one, it must have been a 1.5 kg. I should have stretched it to another 8 meals but it was lush (and we only had salad and pitta with it too).

JuliaLou · 25/06/2021 07:34

My husband is running late for work today and I am off work... I have got up at 6 to quickly make him a packed lunch ... reader, he asked me to and I won't LTB for waking me up. We do stuff to help each other out that we could do ourselves. 3 hail Marys for me.

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 25/06/2021 07:37

just been in hot tub, for almost an hour

the80sweregreat · 25/06/2021 07:48

Used the loo brush

Whiskeylover45 · 25/06/2021 07:52

I washed my bedsheets two weeks ago. I also offered increase in maintance to reflect my husband's new job so obviously I'm a smug bragging twat of a step mam. Disgusting sins...

Midnightballerina · 25/06/2021 07:55

I've just phoned in sick because I fancy a day off. I'm going out to sit in the garden & read the DM & smoke a joint.

Hobbitytoes · 25/06/2021 07:55

My washing has been out in the rain since yesterday. I'm about to clean the toilets using a loo brush (I have three Blush). And, I've just used my ensuite with the door open. I dare to ask, what is so sinful about an en suite?

KarenofSparta · 25/06/2021 08:00

& read the DM & smoke a joint

I would NEVER have put those two things together 😂.

Fizbosshoes · 25/06/2021 08:07

@Hobbitytoes

Ensuite are vile, grim, stinky and disgusting, and akin to taking a shit on your pillow according to a large % of MN.

Fizbosshoes · 25/06/2021 08:11

I think the MNer (female) might be allowed to do twinkly little wees in an ensuite, in an emergency, but their DH is not permitted to go in there and ideally should not perform any bodily functions ever in the same town room that anyone else uses.

BorderlineHappy · 25/06/2021 08:18

My dp drives me everywhere as I don't drive.

TBH I can never quite work out whether it's the drivers or non drivers that are committing a MN crime these days. Grin

It's the drivers. Unless you point out that wfh is good for the environment because you're not driving as much - then driving becomes a good thing because no-one is more productive at home, despite what they might think, it's not fair that some people wfh while others don't, the environment will be just fine, and aksherly, everyone has a moral duty to get back to the office.

Sparklingbrook · 25/06/2021 08:37

The WFH or not argument is a bit relentless in many ways. Grin

I think if you drive then you are not supposed to and must go everywhere on public transport (even if there isn't any where you live) maybe move to somewhere that has public transport. Or get endless taxis. Better still buy a bike and cycle everywhere.
If you don't drive you should learn this life skill immediately and gain some freedom from waiting around at bus stops/train stations etc.

Pinuporc · 25/06/2021 08:38

...but it's a huge crime to ever feel a bit cautious about a driving situation you are unfamiliar with. Unless you can drive confidently, ideally towing a horse box, on 6 lane motorways, roundabouts with 10 exits, toll roads, single track lanes with blind bends and unmade roads without a second of nerves or caution, then you're frankly a danger to others on the road and should not be driving and definitely shouldnt visit cornwall

Hobbitytoes · 25/06/2021 08:39

@Fizbosshoes, thank you for explaining. I always thought I kept my ensuite quite clean. Admittedly, DH is asked to shit in the other bathroom as he is incapable of shutting the door Blush. He regularly uses the downstairs loo. I'll get my coat.....

Oh yes-any driving thread immediately descends into defensive chaos with others deemed unroadworthy and should hand in their licence to save themselves and others from certain death. Grin
