Yesterday I sprayed Viakal on my bathroom mirror instead of glass cleaner.

What do you mean "And?". That's it. That's the most exciting part of my weekend (so far). Jealous anyone?

@LadyMonicaBaddingham please can you come and make mine too? It’s been sitting in a shelf ever since I bought it, yonks ago.
The most exciting thing happening here? I weeded part of a flowerbed.

My little fostered one who has a whole shopping list of medical problems including dystonia, actually slept right through the night for the first time ever. For the first night in months I haven't spent a couple of hours in the wee small hours trying to settle a little one back to sleep while their body contorts in to all kinds of weird and wonderful angles. We both felt much better for a solid night's sleep.

oh bless x

@TokyoSushi thank you …..I will have to go to ‘big’ sainsburys’

Yes! I made a special trip to 'the big Sainsburys' today after seeing the blusher recommend on here!

I cut about 4 inches off the length of my hair using (quite blunt) scissors using you YouTube tutorials. Actually turned out ok.

I did that last week ! I really know how to live I do

Polakieum · 05/02/2023 19:32

I managed to get the towels out on the line this morning and by 3 o'clock they were half dry!!!! Half dry I tell ya! Yes, and incase you are curious, they are now on the airer in the garage and tomorrow morning I will transfer them to the airer in the spare bedroom where they shall warm through and dry completely. 😌

I started a declutter with the intention of being ruthless. Within 5 minutes I was reading old birthday cards which were in a bag at bottom of cupboard. Think I need to get someone in to do it for me!

@TokyoSushi ive put boutique in in search - good prices £2 for an eyebrow pencil ! Is this a new range for them I’ve not known sainsburys have make up before

I thought it was new as I'd not seen it before either but Google suggests it's been going since 2018, maybe it's had a relaunch!

wellpaddedintherear · 05/02/2023 19:32

I scooped all the dead leaves off the grass and put them into piles (which wont rot but at least they are not scattered all over the garden)

@BeyondMyWits i once did the same-I stood up
couldnt walk for two weeks

my life is so rock ‘n’ roll

Tiani4 · 05/02/2023 19:33

Can I join your wild gang?

I cooked, shopped, cleaned this weekend and filled up the garden bin ready for putting out midweek . Ferried one or my DDs around all weekend without putting on a chauffeur's cap.

But I did talk to my son at Uni. - he rang me ..! We had a 6 minute real live conversation 🥰 and he didn't ring as he needed any money. I'm glowing!

ladymacbeth · 05/02/2023 19:33

I went to an exhibition and bumped into my boyfriend. And his wife.

ssd · 05/02/2023 19:33

I made a chicken

Giggorata · 05/02/2023 19:33

We sort of mended a drawer that fell out yesterday, disgorging its contents. It will be OK if we remember not to pull it out too far in the future.
Huzzah.

RoseBucket · 05/02/2023 19:33

@hellobethyname I was surprised how well it turned out! I don’t think I’ll go to a hairdresser now for a while, I hope yours was successful also.

RoseBucket · 05/02/2023 19:33

@ladymacbeth oh!

Tidsleytiddy · 05/02/2023 19:34

Oh I also washed out my pet carrier in the bath using a shower attachment

maslinpan · 05/02/2023 19:35

I scrubbed the black mould off the ceiling in the shower. Then the plaster started flaking off so I gave up.

This is a lovely, and big, achievement. Hope it's the norm going forward.

Well I'm not one for boasting but I still think my weekend is right up there as the most exciting. Although I have been out. To the bins.

You are so rock n roll

thecatsthecats · 05/02/2023 19:37

I planted all of my March seeds out in the conservatory, banking on the mild weather continuing.

We should all get together for a wild night out - imagine the wild time we'd have :)

So long as we're home by 830

lissie123 · 05/02/2023 19:38

I cleaned my car. Well overdue. I got comments at work about my number plate being invisible. Well maybe the mileage I have to travel to get to work has something to do with the dirt build up hmm.
