What’s everyone up to tonight?

A bit of a down day here - feeling a bit lonely today as a FTM having accepted that I’ve become distant from my previous friends. Not all doom and gloom though as I have an amazing DH and DC.

What’s everyone up to tonight? We just had a curry takeaway deal from M&S

Just had Iceland Kebab, homemade chips and salad for tea. Had an horrible, horrible week at work. Bottle of rose has been opened and drunk, now lying on the sofa whilst DH is watching the football

Spent the evening having a meltdown over the fact I have to go out and wear a bloody dress tomorrow. Feel like a total prat in it. Eaten a plate of chips with mayo and debating wine, but not sure that'll help the issue!

Oh no what’s the need for the dress?!! The plate of chips with Mayo sounds delicious!!!

Ah I know the feeling OP

We're trying to watch a film but DS2 is unwell with a horrible cold and keeps crying then puked all over his cot and just wants me. So currently lay on my bed in the dark with him, willing him to fall asleep so I can roll away and escape for an hour or so

Scousefab · 03/05/2024 21:02

Same I’m sat in might grab a glass of rose. DH is watching gardeners world but I really want to watch gogglebox.

pictoosh · 03/05/2024 21:07

Nothing much. I'm pretty shattered after a(nother) full on week at work. I fell asleep for two hours when I got in, woke up feeling really soupy. Ordered a curry with dh and kids, it was delicious.
Still v tired, contemplating an early night and a cycle tomorrow. Weather looks solid pish and meh for the long weekend but will need to get out anyway.

RomeoRivers · 03/05/2024 21:07

Just got back from Zumba, going to shower then watch the 2nd episode of The Night Agent with DH in bed 😊

onwardandupwards · 03/05/2024 21:08

We are playing the longest game of uno I've ever played in my life whilst the 5 year old is singing her heart out to matilda the musical, me and ds are having pork and chorizo burgers for tea if this game ever ends!

andwhy · 03/05/2024 21:13

Struggling to stay awake but I have to because I need to pick up my dd and her friend from town at 10.30.

dothehokeycokey · 03/05/2024 21:13

Got in from work had tea and nodded off on the sofa for an hour after a very long manic week in work.

Dh works nights so he's gone to work and I've just got bak from picking ds up from a friends.

Now sat with prawn cocktail walkers and a dairy milk as a treat after losing 9 lb in three weeks so treating myself to some peace and quiet choccy crisps and re runs of fat friends on Netflix

HashBrownandBeans · 03/05/2024 21:19

Had a horrible stressful day at work, have an awful stomach ache(probably stress). Should be walking the dogs tonight but they can wait and have a proper big walk tomorrow AM instead. Can’t wait to crawl in to bed.

OneThreadOnly · 03/05/2024 21:19

I’m watching Walking Dead and just had dominoes. I am lactose intolerant so really really bad idea!

Whitewatergrafting · 03/05/2024 21:24

Full on day albeit WFH. Picked up DS. Allowed DS to stay up late this evening as it's a long weekend. I'm separated and feel impending sense of dread and isolation every weekend. I envy those partnered up and married. I was once and now I'm not. It's lonely as hell.

familyissues12345 · 03/05/2024 21:36

We've just put the F1 on, I'm about to vanish upstairs for a bath!

Splendidsunbird2 · 03/05/2024 21:45

I'm in bed and I've been here since 7pm, crawled in after struggling through work today, it's been like this all week as I'm having a flare up of my health condition and I'm in so much pain, so so fatigued but too much pain to sleep. Hoping for a better weekend

mechanicalpencil · 03/05/2024 21:50

Ooh, what curries OP? We’re going to an M&S food hall tomorrow!
I’m in bed, trying to divert an impending migraine. DH has just given my shoulders an oil massage.
Sorry to hear you are a bit down (what is FTM?)
Hopefully you have some nice plans for the weekend?

mondaytosunday · 03/05/2024 21:56

Been away celebrating a friend 60th with 8 of her friends for three nights. Back home to teenage DD and we just had dinner and watched a bit of TV. Not a thrilling evening but nice to be home!

FunnysInLaJardin · 03/05/2024 21:57

full on week so tonight we had Waitrose fish and chips, very nice.

Am off to bed soon, me and DS1 are off to see some DJ's tomorrow night including Gorgon City so very excited!

I am sorry to hear this @Whitewatergrafting that sounds tough

TheChosenTwo · 03/05/2024 22:00

A thrilling Friday night here, dd and her boyfriend took ds out for dinner and a play in the arcades and bowling, they’ll be back soon to play some games which I’ll join them for.
Dh and I thought we’d walk to the pub for a couple of drinks while they were out but he was coming down with a head cold and instead preferred to light the fire and order a hot curry! I sat for a bit reading and reduced to go for a swim.
poor Dh and has just gone up to bed shortly after I got home to find some olbas oil!!
Still, it was a lovely outdoor swim and pretty quiet too which was nice.

TaffyTuck · 03/05/2024 22:00

Debbie downer here In bed alone Contemplating my survival in this world and how I will ever cope with all my problems

Kit456 · 03/05/2024 22:09

That's shit @TaffyTuck I'm in bed with pelvic pain (not sure what it is). I've been watching This Town on iPlayer so I'm hoping to watch a bit of that once meds kick in.

TaffyTuck · 03/05/2024 22:16

@Kit456 hope you feel better soon
