Good Morning Everyone! What's everyone up to today?

[lucysmam]

I'm just drinking my first cuppa of the day, in my kitchen spot. The kittens are snuggled back up, after their breakfast, on the arm of my comfy chair 😊 No-one else is up yet, but I know alarms are set for 9am.

I'm nipping dd2 into town to collect her new glasses, at midday. And to pick up a few other bits - herbs from Sainsbury's (I like their jars), a nip in Home Bargains, and a few things from Bodycare.

Dd1 has college work to finish so she'll get on with that, and dd2 wants to do some revision when we get home ready for a practise exam question one of her teachers has planned for Tuesday

I want to upload a few more things to Vinted when we get in, and make carrott and fennel soup. I wanted to make the soup last week but didn't get round to it 🙄

We're having gammon for tea, with veg, roasties (maybe home made chips instead) and gravy 😋

After that it'll be my Self Care Sunday scrubby shower, followed by either crochet or one of my books. I really want to crack on with both but am knackered of an evening & don't get far before it's bed time 💤

What about all of you? 🙂

Good afternoon all. I've been hemming DD's trousers this morning, dinner is all prepared so I might spend a hour just doing some jobs, then relax for the rest of the day.

Good afternoon! I slept terribly last night, no idea why, so my morning was very hazy. I managed to make us a big cooked breakfast though, before dropping DS to his friends house for a few hours. I napped with a cat while he was out and then woke up to collect him.

We’re now all relaxing in front of the fire on various screens although I’m going to read my book in a moment. DH is going to cook a lamb roast dinner this afternoon and I need to summon the energy to stick the hoover round. Work is busy and stressful at the moment so I’m trying not to think about going back to it tomorrow. Maybe I’ll try to chill out a bit more with a nice bath later.

I'm making my homemade tomato sauce 😋

I love these threads! I'm in the absolute trenches of toddler, new job and finishing up doctoral studies so my weekends are often stressful juggling things, on crap sleep as toddler still doesn't sleep through. So I just wanted to say really that you all give me such hope that one day I will sip a relaxing cup of tea, alone, in peace, before my day starts. I needed that glimmer of hope today!

I'm having a pyjama day and recovering from a bit of a hangover. I'm wardrobe mistress at a local am dram theatre and our most recent play closed last night and the after party was rather wild so I think many of us will be doing the same thing.

Recipe please 🙏

Good not morning anymore, I’ve not done much today, I went for a short run and finished richard osmonds last book. In a bit I’m teaching a few people how to make proper samosas, so I need to go and set that up to make sure everyone has all the ingredients etc that they need. Lemon usually throws people off.
