Please distract me with your interesting/non interesting news

While I wait to see what school dc got into. Pretty please

I have put the first coat of paint on the walls in the back bedroom. It has been on my to do list since August last year.

I'm going to do it a psle peach colour, but have done a white coat as it was green before and I don't think the peach will cover it. I'm using up an old tin of peach colour and don't have enough to do more than one coat.

Hope you get the school you want!

I went to make pancake batter for tomorrow before realising we had run out of plain flour so I ran to the shop in joggers, flip flops and a coat - nothing else on the top and no bra under the coat
Good luck with the school place.
If you’re really in need of distraction I have a load of washing that needs putting away and a dishwasher that needs emptying!

Hope it all goes well

I have a weird urge to buy a poncho
No idea why
I will just look like a wandering triangle instead of a wandering square.

That's super boring so here's a quiz question

What is the only letter of the alphabet not included in the names of US states?

Good luck 🍀
I have a toothache developing 😒I'm debating whether to fo a garage run as there's no Ibuprofen in the house 😭

Water down your white paint 50/50, couple of coats should do the trick

Putting washing away used to be the bane of my life, actually made a new years resolution to just get it done straight away to save the mountain pile that would take an hour to do! Looking forward to pancakes tomorrow, hopefully they'll be celebratory

Buy the poncho. Life's too short to regret not having a poncho.

Hmm, without giving it any thought whatsoever I'm going to guess Q?

Ooh toothache is the worst. Do you have any clove oil? Gin is a good substitute for ibuprofen as well

I've just ordered a new rug from Etsy. Hope I like it!

Make sure it's the right size! My friend has this wonderful habit of not checking sizes/dimensions of online purchases and has a ridiculous amount of dolls house type furniture

OP
I was not expecting either of those answers so quickly!

I have pinned down the paper I am going to critically appraisal for my research module.

That sounds equally interesting and terrifying to my gin addled brain

Orajel once tided me over until I could get to a dentist. It’s got a local anaesthetic in it and totally numbs pretty much everything in your mouth but it did knock the pain away. Toothache is the WORST, at least with my migraines I know I can take tablets and wait for it to subside.

I am poorly with Covid. I have managed to do nothing today except fantasy house shop on Rightmove!

Good luck OP, hope it's the one you want!

I'm doing that Fast 800 diet, I drastically need to change my lockdown habits. It's day 1, I'm starving and thinking why haven't I lost weight yet (like a meme!).

Lotto win rightmove searches are my favourite. Sorry to hear you're poorly, I recovered from the dreaded covid last week. Feel better soon

It is 😁 critiquing others research methods is scary yet fascinating to get your teeth into their ideas and methodology.

I'm starving on your behalf. I'm willing your willpower

DC got first choice. Thanks so much everyone

Excellent news! So glad for you.
