I'm just drinking my first cuppa of the day, in my kitchen spot, after a nice long cuddle with boy cat 😊. I have the washer on already & am going to nip up and remind dd1 that she wanted to be up early when I've typed this. So not my usual weekend morning quiet start. The kittens have gone back up to bed after their breakfast.

I'm dying dd1's hair today <yay!>. She was getting up early to do it, then nip to Lidl for the veg she fancied with today's roast, and some cheese for a cheese sauce.

The rest of the day will probably be spent watching a few episodes of The Rookie, with dd2, while she does some Health and Social Care work for school, and I start some peg dolls. I didn't get round to starting them yesterday 🤷‍♀️.

We'll have the roast for tea, then all chip in cleaning the kitchen, before showers all round - maybe not dd1 actually, she'll want to avoid washing as much as possible! My usual Self-Care-Sunday scrubby shower for me, followed by refreshing my toenail polish then an hour or two with my book before bed, ready for work tomorrow 💤.

What about all of you? 🙂

We planned a low key, lazy day but the weather is just too nice to waste so we're just about to take our lunch (and bikes / scooters) to the park for a few hours.

Kids have a little homework to finish later and I'll probably have to bath the youngest as she'll get grubby at the park (older two had their Sunday showers already)

Not sure about dinner, probably chicken and veggie stir fry with noodles. Then an early night all round.

Had a lie in this morning
Got up at 10.00 had a shower got dressed then had breakfast
Went to Sainsburys to get a few bits
Just pottering around at home today I will take the dog out at some point
It’s currently raining here so snuggled up with the dog listening to a true crime podcast
Dh is away with work until tomorrow
Dd had breakfast then went back to bed as she went out last night with friends before they all start back at their universities.She’ll probably see her boyfriend later
Going to cook a roast as really fancy a roast chicken dinner then just watch tv and may do some family history research
Enjoy the rest of your Sunday everyone

I’m finishing off my planning for the week waiting to DH to finish lunch then we will be going for a walk with DC. It’s very windy today, autumn is truly here and I’m trying to throw myself into it instead of mourning summer.

@lucysmam good afternoon I didn't see this earlier!

It's been raining heavily here all day so we are having a super cosy day indoors and I'm loving it!

DC are a mix of reading/gaming/playing/homework

I had a lovely bath this morning, self care Sunday of course! Got cosy "house clothes" on as none of us are planning on going out today. Got the tumble dryer going with school uniform in etc just a real "pottering" day. Lots of tea being drunk aswell!

Sausage and mash for tea, with homegrown broad beans not that the DC will eat veg

This evening I'll either watch last night's casualty or the to finish my book I can't decide 😂

Hi I had a long lie. Another chilled day trying to get on top of this cold. Feeling better today though so think my weekend in bed as helped. Only thing I've done today is hang metal flowers on my fence, made lentil soup in my soup maker and shower. Now back in bed with a hot chocolate and my book. I do to much sometimes and it gets to the stage where I'm exhausted and catching viruses cause I'm runn down. I'm my own worst enemy

I’m having a lazy Sunday. Not leaving the house. Tomorrows my first day back at work after 10 weeks off (due to bereavement of my mother) so I feel very nervous about my return tomorrow. Confused

Good luck tomorrow @Chiavennasca
Take care of yourself.
I am sorry for your loss

@PearlsPearl@babbithank you so much for your kind words. I know it’s the right thing to do. Life must continue. But, by God, it’s hard.

Went to an RHS gardens and went round with DH and had a cream tea. Then we went to Toby carvery and got takeaway roasts. Cleaned the kitchen floors. DH just putting the silkies to bed.

I didn't do much yesterday, as I was volunteering at a free music festival on Saturday and didn't get home until 11.30pm. I have terrible executive dysfunction and didn't do any cleaning. 😳
