Good Morning All! What are you all up to today?

[lucysmam]

I'm just finishing my first cuppa of the day, in my kitchen spot. The kittens are fed & vanished off back to bed (no mountaineering today! Boy cat sprawled out in the window enjoying the sun!). I've had a quick tidy round the kitchen, while the kettle boiled, and sorted a load of washing that I'll get going in a minute.

I have lots of little bits to finish today - 2 peg dolls to add details to, then all need varnishing, yeti needs its arms, then a wash because some numpty knocked tea on him 🙄, some printing for my lesson, and a nip for something for tea since I didn't get to Lidl yesterday. I'm giving myself til half past, then making a start.

Dd2 has homework to finish off - Maths and some Health and Social work. She's done the majority. I might see if she wants to sit with me to do it. And dd1 needs to do some revision for Tuesday's Law exam. She'll huff that she has been doing it, then do some more anyway 🤷‍♀️.

I've just realised someone needs to get cat litter...probably me <sigh>.

Tea will be whatever I choose at Lidl, followed by my usual Self-Care-Sunday scrubby everything shower and reading my book until I go to bed, ready for the 6am alarm <yawn>.

What about all of you? 🙂

Morning!

No idea what to do today. Dog is looking at me hopefully, so I suppose she'll drag me out somewhere in a bit.

That's all I can offer for now. I hope Yeti enjoys his bath!

Morning @lucysmam! I've had a lovely lie in as DH has taken DDs off to the cheap showing at the cinema this morning (the Dogman film which I took them to before and refuse to endure a second time 😂).

I'm going to get some practical things done when they're out. I will probably go to Lidl as I have some vouchers for free fruit and a free box of cereal so may as well do the weekly shop there. DDs are on an inset day tomorrow so it'll be easier for me to go on my own than drag them round the supermarket tomorrow.

We've caught up with all the laundry after our holiday in Cornwall but all the clothes now need putting away so that's definitely on the list for today. I also want to get into my new book as I've been so tired the last few days I haven't started it.

I'll have a hot bath later and a good soak with bubble bath then lotion afterwards. I listen to my podcast when I'm in there and it always makes me feel better.

But first I'm having my coffee and need to get out of my pyjamas!

Good morning Lucysmam and others. I have had two coffees and a cooked breakfast this morning. I just fancied it. Later I will do a quick wash and some pottering. Dd is a coming round to get stuff out of my freezer so I can defrost it. That will then happen. Big chunks of ice falling everywhere. I'll put a towel down to mop up spills. I plan to tidy out toys that the dgs have grown out of and wash my kitchen cupboard doors - maybe. Chicken and leek pie for dinner later. Enjoy your day all

Morning!

I’m sitting in my garden having just had sourdough toast with butter and marmite and my second cup of coffee. DP made me one in bed before he left with DSD and DSS for DSS’s Thai boxing bout.

DS1 is at a sleepover and DS2 is still in bed.

I’ve finished packing for DP (before anyone gives me grief for this it’s because he had to leave much earlier than expected so I said just get out what you need and I’ll shove it in the bag for you) and need to go and have a shower before I can finish packing for me. We’re off down to Southampton in the camper van this afternoon as tomorrow we are going on our first sailing training day. We’re hoping to both get at least day skipper qualifications, potentially more! So Very excited about that.

We’ve got dinner tonight booked in a pub on the river and delicious cheese board type things for when we get back to the van tomorrow.

Have lovely Sundays everyone!

Morning all

I have the dog staring at me hoping to share my toast. Trying to enjoy that and my tea.

We are all tired today. At a friends last night including DDog who had the best time playing with other dogs.

Need to pick up DS from a sleepover. He has lots of homework to do.

Local event on we might head to later. Something easy from m and s for tea.

Need to sort everything for tomorrow but that’s a later on problem.

Good morning @lucysmam and everyone.

I've been awake but dozing since 5am, and properly awake since 7am, but I haven't got up yet. I will do shortly as I'm still trying to keep to my self-imposed up and dressed by 9am schedule... which I obviously have not managed today!

I have no plans whatsoever for today. I ought to sort out my clothes and put away the winter things. I will put on a wash. Mr Dilemma intends to go and strim our guerrilla orchard - I would quite like to visit the new farm shop that has opened on the edge of our little city, but I have just mentioned it to Mr Dilemma who has come up with all the usual 'it's the weekend and it will be busy' responses. I have let him know that it is something I would like to do if he's not too tired after strimming, and it may be possible. For anyone who is thinking 'well why don't you just go on your own?' I can't actually go on my own - I can't walk very far and sometimes I need a bit of help - especially if we have to park a long way away from the entrance (no blue badge). Besides... It is more fun with somebody else. And I don't always feel well enough to go out so I take the opportunity while I can.

Tomorrow I have to go and have my root canal filling finished off. Not something I'm looking forward to but I know it won't be that bad really. I have my lovely massage therapist coming to give me a massage tomorrow late afternoon - so that will make everything better. Not that she does my face/jaw of course, just that I always feel good after she has been.

I'm off to do useful things now.

I do love these threads, I feel calm descend over me when I read them!

I'm just about to put some handwashing out on the line before I take the dog out.
Tidying today, ironing all the school uniform.

Hope everyone has a lovely day.

Had a cuppa and just laying in bed a bit longer.

Going to do a quick flat clean, a bedding wash as I can dry outside with today being warm and windy.

Write a shopping list for tomorrow.

Might have a walk and then probably laze and read.

Enjoy today everyone!

Good morning @lucysmam and all on this thread.

This morning I've got a bit of housework to do then some piano practise. I might go out for a bit of a litter pick on the road where I live while DH cooks lunch.

Later I'm cutting out some cushion covers. I'm going to attempt inserting piping and an invisible zip.

I've been watching The Piano on C4 on Sunday evenings and I'm not sure what to replace that with now the series has finished.

I really hope to give the house a massive deep clean and declutter. I've been up since 6.30am and I've wrote lists for every room and made a start. DH is having a long lie, poor guy has no idea I have a list of things for him to do as well. I really want to iron all this weeks clothes, plan this week's meals and have a proper Sunday reset.
I've got a roast beef for dinner but nothing to go with it so depending how the cleaning goes we might get a takeaway for dinner instead.

Morning!
Had the dog out at 7 before it got too hot- and had an impromptu jog back through the cemetery as we saw a couple of dodgy blokes on our route and didn't fancy meeting them.
Just about to put the kettle on for cuppa no. 3 and have had a bacon butty with dh.
Think dd tried her tester pot of paint on her wardrobe as I've got up to a grey sink and hand towel- need to survey the damage when she gets up.
Planning on trying to move two small trees in the garden today as they'll appreciate the rain later in the week.
There's an F1 to watch this afternoon.
Oo! And our first ever ninja air fryer arrives today. Not sure I'll use it but dh is very excited!

Have a good Sunday everyone.

Morning!

I woke up and catched up on Doctor who 🥹 put some washing on - don’t know why as it’s pouring outside and now having breakfast.
kids back to school tomorrow, so need to go food shopping this afternoon & sort their school stuff out and decide what we’re having for dinner. Need to pick up my Vinted parcels as well as I went on a spree the other day. 🫢
this evening try & finish my book! Slow day today.

Morning!

love these threads but rarely remember to post on them . Nothing much for us today, which is nice! I think DH wants to nip to B&Q then later we’ll watch the F1. Do love a lazy Sunday!

Good morning!

I'm lounging in bed waiting for my husband to bring me some tea which should hopefully fuel me to get up.

I've got a very lazy day today, just need to do a bit of laundry and it's dreaded hair wash day, but other than that my plans are to do as little as humanly possible!

Good morning! zDog2 and I have done a 2 hour walk and she’s snoozing while I enjoy a coffee and a bowl of Fage yogurt, strawberries, blueberries, granola and honey 😋 She’s getting a bath in a minute, she enjoys rolling a little too much!
DH has just left with ZDog1, usual Sunday morning village visit for them, I doubt she’ll get much of a walk so I’ll take her for a longer one later.

Thai curry for dinner for me, I will have to find something different for DH 🙄, he’s getting so fussy it’s driving me nuts. He used to eat anything, now it changes almost daily what he’ll eat - perhaps he needs to cook for himself?
Red Arrows are supposedly to be flying over a spot not far away so he’s heading off there early afternoon. I intend to do more crocheting and listening to audiobooks in my Shed 😄

Morning @lucysmam and everyone here. I'm still in bed lazing, dh just brought me breakfast. The washing is on but its a wet day here in Scotland so I'll hang it upstairs. I need to go to the library for a new book today, im lost withoutva book.
Chicken for dinner later.

@ssd Your library is open on a Sunday? You lucky person! Mine has cut existing hours(also in Scotland)

I've been lying on the couch for 2 hours with the dog on top of me twisting that he wants to go out. My son is still asleep so enjoying the quiet and we can both take the dog out when he's up.
My husband is away so quiet day, few jobs to do around the house and that's about it.
Enjoy your day ladies!

I always feel so cosy reading these threads and validated that our weekends are normal! I'll add our plans-started with junior park run this morning then back home for sausage sandwiches/waffles and fruit. Heading to a farm shortly then back home to do some DIY and gardening bits before Sunday night bath and hair washes all round. Dinner will probably be a chickpea stew I've already prepped in the freezer so I'm feeling grateful to past me for batch cooking🙂

Morning Lucysmam and the Sunday Gang

I've been shamelessly having a quick read but not posting over the last few weeks, sorry about that.

I woke up early with the dogs but came back to bed with a cuppa and a listen to my audiobooks, I’ve just started the James Bond collection, having not read them before I thought I’d give them a go. They haven’t aged well as you can imagine, but I’m enjoying the vintage details.

Will get sorted and head into town shortly to get a few birthday bits for DS number 2 who turns 19 tomorrow, I’ve got a Gail’s coffee voucher so will have a nice drink whilst there.

Roast chicken and salad for dinner is on the cards for later 🤤

Have a great day all, see you next week.

@Rowgtfc72 I bought a Ninja air fryer last year (my first air fryer) and I love it. Wish I’d bought one years ago!

Morning, everyone. We were up early for a Sainsbury’s delivery and then went back to bed with coffee. DP is now pottering in the garden whilst I’m making a pie. Both dc are coming for lunch later.

I realised I forgot to order anything for dessert, so I’m going to nip to the local Co-Op and get some strawberries and cream, I think.

Good morning @lucysmam and everyone.

Been up since about 7. Did my stretches in bed and added in a plank as as doing a plank challenge this month. Had a cuppa and did my puzzles and then went out for a walk. Put some washing in before I went and hung it out when I got back. Just drinking my smoothie breakfast. So envious of everyone having toast or cooked breakfast or bacon butties! I’m on soft foods after dental surgery.

About to empty dishwasher and reload it. Will give kitchen a quick wipe around. Will do DS’s washing if he brings it down.

I have some plants to plant out in beds by the patio so will hopefully get that done and then planning on sitting in the garden reading my book.

Cooking baked ham for DH and DS this evening and I will have salmon. And then I think we are either going next door for a quick drink or they are coming here.

Been up since 8.30 drinking tea and working on my latest puzzle whilst listening to podcasts - my favourite way to start a weekend morning!

DS and DH just left to go the gym so I've got a couple more hours of peace and quiet ahead! Will hang out the washing then plan to clear the weeds/nettles from the back path.

Will watch the Grand Prix with DS this afternoon, then DH and I might go for a short walk across the fields if the rain stays away!

Not sure what we're having for dinner tonight (DH is the cook!), but we'll probably catch up with Taskmaster then it'll be an early night for us all ready for work/ school tomorrow.

Watered the strawberries & pumpkins. Really not sure when to put the pumpkins in the ground.... My milk went sour so I went to shop & got 4 new pints... the shop chap gave me an extra chocolate egg (Cadburys, getting old :).✊

Breakfast & dossing here. There is a short list of things to do before I go do a
gaming activity this afternoon. This evening I should do more life admin. Had a flurry of work emails over the weekend but nothing I can especially action tomorrow.

Was up at 7.30am and out for 8am 7k Jog.
Home and a few stretches then coffee.
Second load of washing in and on the line.
Decided what's for tea.
Off for a visit to local country park then swimming lesson.
Home, sort tea and get school/work stuff sorted.
Baths and early night hopefully
