DH is out with friends, DD21 is at the gym, DD18 staying at a friends and DD10 playing Minecraft. I’m watching the 1% club with a glass of wine.
Dogs are snoozing on their beds.

Given DH a pedicure

Watching Liverpool match -
don’t know why as we are playing shit!

@Livpool I’m glad DH is out tonight or I’d most likely be watching football too

Watched Lionesses on tv, then turned over to Strictly, and now 1% club. Some questions I can get ( ‘preens’), but others I have no idea.

We’ve been out all day (club, shopping and lunch) and now all settled down in the living room with blankets and twinkly lights (we are a very cosy family).

Biggest decision is what film we are going to watch and wrestling the popcorn off the kids

I'm sulking because Dh is out, Dd has gone to bed with a headache, Ds wants a curry ready meal (they're both adults living at home) so I decided to cook myself a lovely meal I'd cooked successfully on holiday for myself. But tonight it was rubbish. Such a stupid reason to sulk but I was really looking forward to it!

shellyleppard · 25/10/2025 21:14

Reading a good book with a cuppa. Eldest one (20 ) is sprawled out on the sofa reading, youngest (17) in bed.... reading 😂 living the high life lol

TheChosenTwo · 25/10/2025 21:15

Me dc1 and dc3 are watching some old traitors in front of the fire, dh is just finishing whipping up dinner 😋
we do eat late, especially at the weekend!
dc2 is at uni so missing them.

Listening to a near neighbour’s party. Trouble is I can only hear the bass so can’t even sing along plus I suspect they’re not very singalong songs. The great thing is, clocks go back an hour so I’ll soon see if they tag that extra hour to the party

FlorenceAgainstTheMachine · 25/10/2025 21:16

Doing some writing with the cat on my lap. DC already in bed. I like listening to the rain outside but will probably put something on TV in a bit.

BlueOceanFish · 25/10/2025 21:17

DH watching YouTube football interviews, DS gaming with mates, DD playing with make up and clothes and I’m into my book. Contemplating going to bed but think it’s a bit early 🤣

I find I get some earlier ones wrong and later ones early. I’ve just got the 1% question right though so feeling quite proud 😂

Watching the Forsyth Saga on Netflix. Just finished episode 2 and off to bed now with a cuppa and the dog who doesn’t appreciate the fireworks. Dh is away for 5 weeks and the teens are at uni or out so it’s very quiet!

Never too early for an early night, I’m up at 6 all week so try and stay up later on a Saturday so I sleep longer Sunday morning but I’m tired tonight so will be in bed in the next hour or so

I watched Strictly, I've just done my nails and I'm about to have a cup of tea.
So rock n roll!!!

ninjahamster · 25/10/2025 21:20

watching tv, browsing t’internet. Drinking wine.
Husband at work. Adult sons upstairs playing fifa I think!

Whatshesaid96 · 25/10/2025 21:21

I'm struggling with pain at the moment. Another week until another investigation. In the meantime I'm tired from lack of sleep and my drowsy medication kicking in. I'm just doomscrolling waiting for my cup of tea to cool and then it'll be sleep with the hot water bottle. Not my idea of a Saturday night.

vodkaredbullgirl · 25/10/2025 21:22

Night shift and an hour extra to work, 13 1/2 shift

TheScottishPlay · 25/10/2025 21:22

Just had takeaway with DH after building up IKEA furniture for DS room much of the day and evening.

soupmaker · 25/10/2025 21:24

Watching DH sleep in his chair. He was on a 12 hour shift today. Watched Strictly earlier having made pizza from scratch for tea, so we ate that in front of the telly. Kids then scarpered upstairs and I tried to win the 1% club but didn’t get the 1% question right. Now listening to fireworks banging and CMAT’s latest album.

IHopeYouStepOnALegPiece · 25/10/2025 21:26

Spent 3 hours on the phone to a friend working through a work proposal, ate a McDonalds (which was delivered piping hot so fabulous!) and now in bed because its fucking freezing and deciding if I should watch one more episode of Resident Alien or if I should be sensible and go to bed now at 10.30 given I have work at 7 tomorrow...or if I can get away with watching it because the clocks go back 😂

jaydeem · 25/10/2025 21:27

I have my 11 month old granddaughter for a sleepover so her parents can have a date night. Loving it

Kimura · 25/10/2025 21:28

On the couch with my partner, watching the UFC fights and boxing 🥳

distinctpossibility · 25/10/2025 21:28

My about to be 14 year old has gone out for her birthday with a group of friends. I am only required for the credit card! Sat waiting for them in the all you can eat buffet 😂

BedlingtonFloof · 25/10/2025 21:30

Not feeling great so me and the dog are sitting under a heated throw watching vintage “true” paranormal shows. I’m drinking lots of ginger tea and the dog has had treats aplenty.

GasperyJacquesRoberts · 25/10/2025 21:31

Went to see my mum earlier and got back a couple of hours ago. Currently watching Taskmaster and contemplating going to bed with a book and a cup of tea.
