I made myself burger and chips and just started watching normal people. What's everyone else up to?

I'm relaxing as feeling a bit unwell. Cancelled all plans for the weekend. Will relax and watch TV.

Got to take the kids to scouts then do the big shop while they're there, pick them up from scouts, come home, pit the shopping away and go to bed. It's an exciting life 🤣

I dropped my partner at the pub earlier for him to meet some friends. Meantime I've showered, shaved my legs, deep conditioned my hair, repainted my toe nails, used a lovely body cream. I'm watching Good Omens 2 now, I'll pick him up in about an hour then we'll cook dinner and I'll pour a large G&T for myself.

Just about to put the small person to bed then will get my dinner sorted and spend my evening half watching crap on the TV while MNing.

SirChenjins · 22/09/2023 18:24

Curry and a cocktail in a can whilst watching Only Murders. It’s all go in the Chen household.

PuttingDownRoots · 22/09/2023 18:24

Elder DD at Scouts.
Cooking dinner with younger DD.
Will fret later as elder DD makes her own way home even though its a 12 minute walk with her friends.

Then I have a Corona chilling in the fridge for when kids are in bed while binging on TV.

So a pretty normal evening really.

My just turned 18 year is taking me and his Dad out for a pint. 😁

Findyourneutralspace · 22/09/2023 18:25

I’ve just cleaned the kitchen and debating what to eat that won’t mess it up again. Whatever it is will be accompanied by wine.

Silkiebunny · 22/09/2023 18:26

We having 3 kitchen people just finishing installing the kitchen, this evening they have finished painting, installed the sink and taps and installed the cooker. Really hoping they will have finished apart from tiling tonight.

Just getting a Chinese, and deciding what to get. Then off swimming, sauna, steam room and jacuzzi.

EsmeShelby · 22/09/2023 18:26

Takeaway and TV . It's been a long week.

SnapOutOfIt1 · 22/09/2023 18:27

Already in bed, kids at their dad's. Having a drink and watching Derry Girls. Feels so dull but if I was asked to do something I don't think I could be bothered.

ValkyrieAssassin · 22/09/2023 18:28

I am eating bratwurst with potato salad and about to turn on my big fat Greek wedding on Netflix

Hibernatalie · 22/09/2023 18:28

Just about to gets bathed and in bed. DH is cooking enchiladas and then I'm going to get the duvet on the sofa and we're going to watch that new programme - the one with Jenna Coleman

Honeypickle · 22/09/2023 18:28

Started on antibiotics today for a chest infection. About to watch the new Little Mermaid with the DC. Curry later. G&T in hand, chest infection be blowed!

Bobbedhairdontcare · 22/09/2023 18:31

I’m minding my grandson as my daughter has just given birth to my first granddaughter. Can’t wait to see them tomorrow.

TaylorSwiftsBoots · 22/09/2023 18:31

We’re in a camper van on the banks of a loch. M&S cottage pie in the oven and a glass of very cold Chablis is in my hand.

Strawberrycheesecake7 · 22/09/2023 18:34

We’re going to take the dog out for a walk in a few minutes if it’s not raining. Then I’ll probably be breastfeeding my three month old DS while DH cooks dinner. After that we’ll give DS a bath and watch an episode of Task Master we have recorded, nothing terribly exciting.

AnotherCountryMummy · 22/09/2023 18:35

Currently watching In The Night Garden with my poorly toddler, hand feeding him toast. Soon we'll do a quick bath and bed and then I'll be tucking into a yummy roasted vegetables dish with my husband and watching a movie. I fancy a Christmas one but he'll probably say no.

Inextremis · 22/09/2023 18:36

DH is in the pub (normal Friday!), I'm cooking sausages and mash for him, and chicken Madras 'n rice for me (the Madras was made last week and has been in the freezer). We used to have curry every Friday night, but he went off it, I didn't - hence the different dinners. I'm having a whiskey and diet lemonade right now, and hoping not to be too full for ice cream for afters :)

Honeypickle · 22/09/2023 18:36

Congratulations @Bobbedhairdontcare !

Mummyboy1 · 22/09/2023 18:37

It's really good!!

shivbo2014 · 22/09/2023 18:43

Lying on a bed in a hotel in Fort William relaxing. Doing the three peaks challenge tomorrow, quite nervous as not sure I've trained enough but also looking forward to it. Really enjoying being on my own in a hotel for the 1st time in years!

WonkyDesk · 22/09/2023 18:44

I love seeing what everyone is up to. I'm so nosey.
I'm really happy to be back home. Chilling out watching TV with my little boy, giving him some cuddles.
I have some wine lined up for when DH gets in. It's my turn to cook us some dinner and maybe watch a film together when kids are in bed. Glad we can sleep in tomorrow -until 8am! I love Friday evenings.

Sonolanona · 22/09/2023 18:47

I've just eaten a fabulous veggie pizza (that I put extras on) and I'll practise the piano for a while, might do my learn Italian course for a while, and then I'll have two glasses of wine and probably fall asleep on the sofa Grin

Dh is home late tonight and DS2 is at work so it's just me and the dog for now..

(But I do have my grandchild at the crack of dawn tomorrow so no rest then!!)

LBOCS2 · 22/09/2023 18:47

We're sitting outside my sister's house, about to pop in and feed the cat while she's on holiday. The DDs got McDonalds for dinner on the way there so I don't have to think about that (and they're extremely happy!)

DH and I will order ourselves something for takeaway Friday when I get back. Then it's chilling out with a film - we did Enola Holmes 2 last week and I'm thinking possibly Sister Act tonight?
