What’s Happening In Your House?

[RabbitsRock]

Apologies if there’s already one of these threads - lucysmam often does a weekend one but I can’t see anything.
How’s everyone’s Sundays shaping up so far? I took an amitriptyline last night to help me sleep but typically when I could have had a lie in I didn’t get one as I was woken by DD14 at around 7. Tried to go back to sleep but she was being so loud on the phone to her girlfriend. Seems to have lost all consideration for other people. I got up around 9, took DH a cuppa in bed then chilled for a bit before doing the dishwasher & bleaching the kitchen surfaces. Also put on a load of washing. We’re going away for a few days on Thursday so I’m trying to make sure we have all the clothes we need. Seeing a couple of West End shows for DH’s significant birthday. Can’t wait! DD will be staying with my DBro & then with her girlfriend so we get some teenage free days. It’s been very stressful as she was deregistered from school & is currently under the mental health crisis team 😢
I didn’t have breakfast so will do hash browns for brunch. Thought we had no bacon but happy to find some streaky left over from macaroni cheese the other day. DD made it & it was delicious. DH hopefully making a chocolate chilli for tea. No plans for this afternoon although if the rain holds off, we might go to a sunflower trail. I have loads to do in the house but try to pace myself as I really struggle with my lower back. Definitely want to clear the stairs as we tend to use them as a dumping ground plus clear some of the many carrier bags in our room. Also need to track down a sponge bag for our trip.

DH and both DSs about to leave the house. DH and DS13 are going to an air rifle shooting thing, we have bother worked all summer holidays so are trying tondo things with him on a weekend. DS16 is getting dropped of at his grandparents house he got his GCSE results on Thursday and signed his apprenticeship contract on Friday so they wanted to see him.

I am going to wait until they have all gone and then have a bath with a good book and some peace and quiet.

Not much happening in our house. DD has been up and had breakfast and gone back to bed. DS got up very late so had breakfast about midday. DH and I have been ambling around doing a few chores and enjoying the knowledge we have another day off tomorrow. Later we will all have dinner together at home but otherwise we won’t see much of the kids. DH and I will have a few bank holiday beers. Not very thrilling!

I'm staying with friends, friend is tidying up bits, her grandson is in the bath, I'm mooching in the garden.
I need to pack to come home, later we'll open some wine and have a roast.

We are surrounded by boxes full of stuff being packed up. DC moving out soon into their own place and it is currently a shambles here!

DH is currently making egg & tomato sandwiches for lunch, and in the oven I am slow cooking some pork for dinner tonight.

I am also fighting off a lurking migraine.

I’m sorry for your troubles with your daughter, I hope the crisis team are helpful.

Right now absolutely nothing is happening in my house and it’s bliss. My four dogs are asleep on the floor and on the sofa next to me (usually two are strictly outdoor farm dogs, but Sundays don’t count 🤫), toddler DS is napping, DH is fixing up the fence in the garden after a bullock crashed through it the other day. It’s his first ‘day off’ (he still went out to do yard jobs this morning) this month so it’s nice having him around. This morning we went to see a classic car run which goes past the end of our lane and this afternoon the in laws are coming over and I expect we’ll go out on the quad bikes (we just bought our son a little battery one and he’s obsessed with racketing about on it at top speed)

Lying on my bed with the dog nursing a hangover. Dds both went out for brunch and DH is due back from some running event soon so feel like I should pull myself together but..meh. Online shopping for wallpaper at the moment but the prices of the ones I like are eye watering

Been cleaning the kitchen with sugar soap, the sun was shining in and showing up all the grubby marks, so much fresher looking now. So now im out in that sun with tea and toast before starting a roast chicken and maybe do a sponge pud or banana loaf. DS 1 and 2 are mulling about looking for food as usual and DH watching some Roman history programme before an afternoon of football. Might try a late summer garden tidy too as it’s dry here then a few beers before and after dinner.

Oldest Dd is at her boyfriends house. Ds is at his dads and Dd13 is about to go to a football match.
I will have the house to myself for the afternoon. I’m going to tidy round and do a quick hoover then enjoy the peace. Everything else is clean as we spevt a long time yesterday scrubbing, polishing and cleaning.
im going to make tea but think I’ll have a long soak in the bath and read my book.

Your dog needs to take more water with it @Royalsingingseal

😂😂😂 mixing his drinks again

We are not long back from honeymoon. Cases haven’t been unpacked yet but we have the house to ourselves. I’m hoping to make the most of it and will hopefully nip to Ann summers for a new outfit.. DH has had a headache for a couple of days. I’m hoping to take his mind off it. I’ll cook his fave meal later too

Pretty boring here..

DC1 is out with Dad. I've just done lunch for the girls and was going to get the bikes out but of course it's started to rain.

Was planning on a canal walk, coffee and cake at our favourite outdoor cafe (it's based in a nature reserve so we have a wonder about there too) but none if this is very appealing in the rain.

We have a massive batch of Orbeez on the go which is keeping them off devices so far but we've exhausted our rainy day activities this summer.

I may plod on with the canal walk unless it's torrential rain.

Just dh and myself at home right now , t.v. is on in the background ( bbc news ) , he's just made me a peppermint tea , I've just made myself an egg mayo sandwich , I'm not dressed , on my ipad , dh drinking his own tea ( not peppermint ) and he will probably go back to the pc in other room.

Not much! Scooby Doo is on the tv and I seem to be the only person dressed.
I must get on with the cleaning and then nag DS to try on his school trousers and shoes as I suspect I need to buy new ones. Might need a coffee first!

I’m trying to master the technique of using my new ice cream machine. Bloody thing is driving me crazy. Over churned/ under churned 🤬. All this faff for a litre of ice cream.

Woke up earlier than I wanted to but managed to sleep again until 730. Ds went out rowing, came back and has gone out again. I feel he's slowly, slowly adjusting to DP being around more. Dp and I had a lazy start and then pottered quite effectively in the garden for an hour. Bread and cheese for lunch. Off to a day festival at the cricket club later.

I went to a car boot sale earlier and bought a nice spice rack for 50p. Bargain, as I have loads of herbs and spices and I needed more storage for them as the current rack is too small. Now DC has nabbed it for their new flat. Typical.

Twins running round crazy here... raining....clearing up fallout from lunch

I've just taken DH down some cold beers and some petrol for the lawnmower and also sung him a verse of “One man went to mow”, as he is literally mowing a meadow.
I keep saying we should buy him a ride on, but he doesn’t want one (yet).

I missed the Early Music Show again today, as they have started broadcasting it earlier, so I shall catch up, read and doze.
(I haven't been well recently, so I am taking full advantage.)

Left over spag Bol or cold salmon and salad for dinner tonight, neither requiring much effort, thank goodness.

Nothing much here. Just DH and me, and we both have colds and had a hard week at work, so six music is on and I'm mainly trying to keep my eyes open scrolling here (not sure why I'm bothering though) whilst he reads the paper and one of our cats sleep purrs between us. Sounds cozy (and is), but I'm bored and annoyed that our weekends have gone back to recovering from work rather than actually living llife 😂

DD is out with a friend for the day so I have the house to myself. Enjoyed a lie in and late breakfast. Trying to motivate myself to get on top of the housework as it's gone a bit feral over the holidays. However as I never get the house to myself its also really tempting to just sit with a coffee and my book!

Tired household after first week back to school. Car hunting online for me as someone drove into me a few weeks ago and wrote off my car.
Kids are in devices and refusing to leave the house. Homework is done and house is tidy. So probably bacon sandwiches for dinner and an early night for all!

Rolled out of bed at 8 went to the loo went back to bed till 10 .
Rolled out of bed again had a shower clean onesie on binge watching Colombo now waiting for my roast chicken dinner . (Iceland oven one everything in one tray )
I do live alone .

Not much. Had a facetime chat with DD, DP is gaming and has needed help destroying some aliens (I have much better sniper skills than him 😂) and I'm just mooching about on-line. We had planned to go out for the day but it's pissing down here.

Myself and Dh have invited our adult kids and partners and mother in law for a roast chicken dinner ! So a family day for us I love em ! Hope everyone is enjoying their Sunday x
