Absolutely bonkers shift at work so very glad to be chilling with a glass ( bottle!) of wine & looking forward to Strictly. Feeling tired & edgy as I forgot to put my new HRT patch on this morning. DD12 made choc chip cookies from chilled dough & we have all tried one, purely for quality control purposes of course! Chippy tea which DH is fetching soon, even though it’s my turn. Enjoying watching two of the bunnies hopping round the garden. I got lovely kisses/ nose rubs when I got home.

Watching fantastic Mr fox with Ds2 curled up next to me. He's had a busy morning kayaking so tired now. Ds1 and dh are away overnight so it's just us tonight.

RosieLemonade · 25/09/2021 18:23

Enjoy your wine OP!
Had not so great news regarding my unborn baby today. DD has also been a madam but got to spend time with my sister so that was lovely. Just had a shower and then sitting down for pizza and all the sides! Even treating myself to a Fizzy drink.

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 25/09/2021 18:26

RosieLemonade Sorry to hear that, hope things get brighter soon...

I'm standing in the kitchen drinking a negroni sbagliato and attempting a new recipe. DSs are both gaming (thankfully in separate rooms) and DH is on his way back from work I hope

DD1 is at a Cubs camp and will be home at 8, DH is at work tonight, DD2 is having a sleepover with her cousins, they are eating pizza while watching the descendants (again). I’m busy trying not to fall asleep on the sofa, I had my first counselling session this morning and it’s left me absolutely exhausted for some reason. I’m looking forward to getting all the kids in bed and then getting an early night myself.

princessspotify · 25/09/2021 18:52

Currently sat watching the football on TV with DH and Ds1. Cat is curled up asleep in his bed. Ds2 is upstairs watching an avengers film.
Will watch strictly on catch up later

DiscontentedWoman · 25/09/2021 18:54

I'm knackered and I ought to go and have a soak to liven myself up but I can't be arsed. And I don't think I can be arsed to watch Strictly either tbh.

Coffeeanddarkchoc · 25/09/2021 18:56

2yo has gone to bed, 8yo is sick so lying on the couch watching his switch and I am waiting for DP to bring home my fish and chips. I'm starving.

lannistunut · 25/09/2021 18:58

Watching old Bake Off with DS and DH, knackered after a busy day out. Going for a bath soon. Then sleep!

lightand · 25/09/2021 19:04

Have 2nd lot of visitors.
Now know I will have approx 12 family members for Christmas for about 6 days. Yikes! Mind doing overtime about seating arrangements, bedrooms, and food. Oh yes, the food! Shock

AdoraBell · 25/09/2021 19:06

Just had dinner. Started packing for moving a few days ago, continued this evening. Just hoping the buyer doesn’t pull out.

Hope everyone has a good weekend 🍷/ ☕️

BeautyQueenIamNot · 25/09/2021 19:17

Spent most of the afternoon on the lakes paddle boarding as they close for winter today dc1 is devastated 😞 so both kids are snuggled up on the sofa watching a film.

Dh & I are eating a curry then I’m going to catch up on strictly on bbc iplayer.

Mumoblue · 25/09/2021 19:19

My son is running up and down the living room because he’s been with his dad all day and just eaten snacks and sweets and is absolutely bouncing off the ceiling. Any tips on how to wind down a wild 20 month old? It’s a bit dark to be taking him out for a walk!

notacooldad · 25/09/2021 19:20

Me and Dh should ha e een out tonight with Ds1 and 2 and their partners. We paid over £300 for the tickets and me and Dh cant go.
😭
Thankfully the "kids" have still gone!

TammyTwoSwanson · 25/09/2021 19:20

DH making a risotto, ds1 is making some electronic music upstairs, ds2 is watching youtube videos of drummers, I'm on mn after a full day of uni work. The dog is looking for scraps of food from dh's risotto making!

I found a warm bubble bath helped and then start the evening routine.

AColdDuncanGoodhew · 25/09/2021 19:22

Kids 5th birthday was on Thursday and they were at school, so had a party with 12 of their friends today in softplay. They're half asleep on the couch and we're having a Chinese for tea. Bliss!

savagebaggagemaster · 25/09/2021 19:22

All of us (me, dh, dc1 and dc2) are slobbing out with with wedges in the oven for tea.
We've all received positive pcr results and are at various stages of feeling ill / better.
It's going to be another long week! Sad

lilacdinosaur · 25/09/2021 19:25

Just put DD to bed so I'm just about to go build a balloon arch for her birthday tomorrow, wish me luck. Still got food to cook, presents to wrap, and a cake to decorate so I reckon I'm in for a long night!

YanTanTetheraPetheraPimp · 25/09/2021 19:30

I’m watching‘Weatherman Walking’ whilst knitting a pair of socks, DH is moaning about the dog peeing on the lawn and causing dead patches 🙄 and DDog is fast asleep in the middle of the room sprawled out on her back, most inelegant! And I have a large G&T so I’m fine 😋
