What would you like to do today

[Sharrilanda]

... if you didn't have any of your responsibilities?

I would like a day in Cambridge just wander and explore at my own pace.

I'd love to take a walk in the Peak district, maybe go for a pub lunch.

Instead I'm working a 12 hour shift

I would like to go for a really fancy afternoon tea. (Work for me instead too)

Sleep. Read. Sleep.

I have my first free day since the start of the summer holidays (I’m a granny) so I’m meeting friends and taking the train to Windermere. Something we have never done before. And for today that is quite perfect 😁

I'd love a day completely to myself, to go into town and mooch the shops, read books, eat at the times I wanted to and whatever I want to eat. And to just rest. I feel exhausted.

Alas, it's the summer holidays.

See the sea. I miss it.

If I could do anything I would have a haircut (I haven’t been to the hairdresser for years), go for a pub lunch and then have a walk along a beach.

But the reality is I’m waiting for my over-priced food shopping to arrive and wondering if it will even last a week and will be cleaning the house.

I'm actually doing something lovely today which involves mooching in gift shops, probably a swim in the sea and walking round a new place.

what i am doing
swim this morning
brunch
nails done
dog walk with my daughter
gardening
and then chilled evening at home

Go home.

Be in my house by myself and do what I want - probably telly and crochet in bed. Not going to happen though, can’t remember the last time I was alone in the house, let alone with nothing (job/chores) to do!

We’re about to go off on holiday with extended family and I am dreading it, I want to be around NO people, not more people! 😭😭

Omg that sounds glorious!

I'd like to sit on a beach and watch the sea. Maybe share a bag of chips with a few friendly seagulls.

Today I'm fortunate enough to be able to do as I wish.
Currently cuddling one of my Border Collies, whilst I browse MN, then I'm going to ...make cheese, red onion and tomato baked potatoes for lunch.....
then going to spend a couple of hours reading a book ("Never Lie" by Freida McFadden)....
make a sweet and sour chicken for dinner tonight.....
watch an episode of Brookside (my guilty pleasure)....
end the evening by sharing a bottle of dry white wine and watching a horror movie.

Whatever you all do, I hope you enjoy your day

Walk in the park on my own. Instead I am working and helping DS move back in

Hmmm I'd love a day by the beach, lazing around, reading a book. Coming home to a spotlessly clean house and having a long leisurely bath and then ordering a take away before having an early night in freshly washed sheets. Ahhhh. Not going to happen with two little people around taking it in turns to see who can cry the loudest currently

No.responsibilites so.technically can do.as i please. Would like emotional peace then whatever I do would have some element of pleasure. Oh well. Hope u.all get chance to get some me time soon.

I'd absolutely love if I had a TV in my bedroom and I was in bed sleeping on and off, watching my programmes, eating then wake very refreshed with my hair colour done and all of DDS meds collected from the chemist and a KFC for dinner.

A cinema trip followed by a nap then a bath.

I don’t have any responsibilities today apart from two unmoving jet lagged teens and a dog in for her vaccinations.

I’ve been for a swim and to the vet. DS and I will take the dogs for a walk if it’s not too warm. Then I’m planning to sort out the guest bedroom, have a nap and read the New Statesman.

Im then planning to bake a cake and to cook ragu. Love the summer holiday!

Bit late to join for today but if I didn't have any responsibilities tomorrow I would take myself to Hever Castle and look at the Boleyn exhibitions. I last went when I was pregnant with Dd1 now nearly 19. I wrote my dissertation on Anne Boleyn and I'm fascinated by her and the Tudor period in general .

I'd like to go spend the day in the city by myself, spend as long as I want browsing the books in the big library, and look in all the shops I want to look in, not what anyone else wants to. And eat a lot of meat at the Viking restaurant.

Though I'm pretty happy with what I did today anyway.

Drink a hot cup of tea, have complete silence for half a hour and get some much needed sleep in peace.

Sit on the beach, feet in the sea and just be.

Hope you are ok @Ratfinkstinkypink x
