Good morning Mumsnet! What are you all up to today?

[lucysmam]

I'm just drinking my first cuppa of the day, in the conservatory, with dd1 and boy cat. Girl cat is most likely back in bed with dd2.

Dd1's home for Easter this weekend - she booked some events in London with her friends for next weekend. She's currently applying her make up to go to work.

Today's plan is a trip into town with dd2 for pens for her exams - she wants specific ones - and a few other bits. Then home to start prepping the kitchen to decorate, after a trip to B&Q last night. I need to remove a vinyl wall sticker if anyone has any tips for doing that?

Later on, I might spend an hour sorting peg dolls to paint over the Easter holidays since dd2 has plans to attend every revision session school are offering.

Not sure what we'll have for tea yet 🤔, maybe the curry dd2 fancied.

This evening, it'll be an hour or two of crochet or my book, then a fairly early night ready to start decorating tomorrow.

What about all of you?

Thsnku that’s where we got it from xxx

2nd trimester energy has kicked in and its a rare day where the house is empty of dogs and DH underfoot so I spent all morning doing housework, except for a short stint in the bath when I swear I felt the baby for the first time! It was a little 'pop' sensation.

I'm now sat down in my only armchair that overlooks the back garden and wishing i could plant my seedlings already and build the pea trellis. I'd like to drive into town but it just started pouring down so it must be a sign to have a bit of a breather. It's the kind of day when I miss being able to have a coffee. That along with sushi are two things I'm really looking forward to once baby is here.

Trying not to worry about upcoming work redundancies and baby's health (we have a few test results we're waiting on). Looking forward to Easter though...I'll buy DH's egg while I'm out this afternoon.

On the way to a mammogram. Joy!
I am grateful for it, though. Will treat myself to a cake afterwards.
