Gearing up to watching the England match, even though we’ll probably lose! DD12 has her bestie round & they’re going to make pizzas for tea in a bit. DH & I having jacket spuds with ham, cheese & salad later. I am looking at a hall full of bags for the charity shop & thinking very hard about putting them in my car boot. DD is having a massive clear out of her room. I spent Sunday afternoon sorting through loads of stuff she’d chucked & dividing it into keep, recycle, bin or charity shop piles. Very proud of her as she finds it incredibly difficult to tidy up & declutter. I have a new pine chest of drawers so need to sort out all my clothes, including my summer wardrobe which is in 2 suitcases at the mo. Our bedroom is like a jumble sale! I tend to wear the same few things to save me having to dig through piles. I know I will feel so much better when it’s done.

The toddler and I are watching Disney's Robin Hood, I'm making pesto pasta with chicken for dinner, we've just been to our allotment and planted some redcurrants.

I'm taking a break from work for 30 mins to get a bit of fresh air. DH is gaming in the living room, dd is creating some kind of craft monstrosity masterpiece at the kitchen table. Dog is snoozing in the corner. Everyone quite happy!

BillywigSting · 29/06/2021 16:47

Have just finished a lovely afternoon tea with ds7. Dp wants to watch the match so he will eat later.

Ds now playing in the garden and I'm about to fiddle about with a bit of turf.

Tangledtresses · 29/06/2021 16:47

Just got back from school run, soaked!!!
Going to make spaghetti and meat balls and dream of going on holiday in a few weeks 😀😀😀😀😀

Paddingtonitspaddingtonbear · 29/06/2021 16:49

Kids are watching Masha and the bear. Just about to get them ready for their swimming lesson. Chippy dinner for tonight after. Didnt even realise England was playing haha.

FatCatThinCat · 29/06/2021 16:49

I'm browsing MN in an attempt to avoid cleaning the kitchen. DH is sat at the dinning room table working on some important report while listening to shit music. And DS(8) is lying on the deck in his undies playing animal crossing. The cats are sleeping under a shrub somewhere in the garden.

spagbog5 · 29/06/2021 16:54

I’m about to have a shower and making my list for Sainsbury’s.
I need coffee extract and chopped walnuts
A tin of chickpeas
Another serrated knife
Another cheese grater
President spready butter
cheese, gruyere.
Then I’m going to sort out my baking cupboard.

Well now I’m singing the theme tune to this - so thank for that! VT. Eu-de-lallie, eu de lallie …
SandysMam · 29/06/2021 17:02

I love these threads!

DH got home from work early so we walked through the park to get DD from school, back now and watching the England game. Having freezer fish and chips for tea and hoping to read some of my book for a bit. Everyone is happy, it’s nice to be at home!

Cowbells · 29/06/2021 17:04

DH and both DSs (teens) watching the match. I am sipping the dregs of some recent birthday champagne and will cook in a minute, after I have read another chapter of a novel.

CheeseIsATypeOfMeat · 29/06/2021 17:07

DH is watching football.
DCs are playing Where's Wally Snap and I'm cooking dinner!
All very excitingGrin

cliffdiver · 29/06/2021 17:07

I'm waiting in the car for DD1 to finish her dance lesson.

DD2 is at home with DH, she's probably playing with LOLs or similar.

DH is cooking dinner whilst watching football, probably moaning about having to cook the dinner whilst trying to watch the football Grin

Gertie75 · 29/06/2021 17:08

I'm in my pj's half listening to the football, dh has come home early to watch out.
Eldest dd is playing on the vr headset and the youngest who is 6 smells very strongly of perfume after spraying herself with it and declaring she's a teenager.
I can't stand the smell, it's one that mil bought me that I hate so gave it to dd, mil buys it for me every year and this year she got me the talc, perfume, handbag sized perfume and body wash.
It's Avon Far Away.

Me too. It’s just so unnecessary.

OH is claiming to be so engrossed int he football already that he can’t choose what he wants from the takeaway. I’ve ordered on his behalf and if he doesn’t like it I’ll eat his as well as mine.

The dog and I are keeping out of it for a while.

Ipanemama · 29/06/2021 17:12

Instapot butternut squash with bacon Smile. Chatting with teenagers about their day. Not much else.

Pinkybike · 29/06/2021 17:14

I'm eating home made chicken curry on my own in the kitchen, DH just came home early to watch match, is in the lounge with teenage DS, they will eat later.
2 smaller boys fed and on their laptops.
I'm heading out to do another night shift at 18.30 in a care home . I worked last night & it was roasting hot all night so hopefully it will be better tonight.
I'm made a huge pack lunch to take to work to keep me awake.
I really need a poo before I go otherwise I'm full of wind & belly ache all night!!

Ipanemama · 29/06/2021 17:14

Forgot to say the actual dinner - risotto Blush

CupOfTPlease · 29/06/2021 17:19

Got dinner in the oven for DS.

DP watching the match.

I'm just scrolling through MN Grin.

PickAChew · 29/06/2021 17:24

Dh has taken a break from surviving the zombie apocalypse and is emptying bins.
Ds1 is driving a bus. Badly. He really knows how to annoy the passengers.
Ds2 is sorting through his lego hoard and ticcing loudly.
I've just booked myself an eye test because I've realised my right eye isn't pulling its weight. Will start dinner, shortly.

Littlelegs2 · 29/06/2021 17:27

I have spent the day cleaning up Gs sick Sad. Ds 14 telling me about his Jack petchey award Smile tuna pasta may for dinner.

LoveFall · 29/06/2021 17:28

In my bedroom with aging portable air con on full. Still too hot.

We are having an unprecedented and dangerous heatwave here in B.C. Incredibly hot, lots of places over 40c.

It is too hot basically to do anything but try to cope. We are not equipped for this here.

BrownEyedGirl80 · 29/06/2021 17:33

Watching England with a beer.dh at work and ds upstairs

purrswhileheeats · 29/06/2021 17:37
