I'm cooking tea with a glass of wine & the radio.

Plan a shower & sit with my book after.

You?

Doing my last assignment for this year's Open uni module (not on mumsnet, honest...).

Plummagic · 08/05/2026 17:31

Watching Classic Coronation St and deciding if I can be arsed to cook dinner or just have a cheese sandwich.

TheChosenTwo · 08/05/2026 17:31

Finished work, closed my laptop for the weekend, lying on my bed contemplating walking to the pub to meet dh for a drink but equally I could just relax for ah hour instead 😂
leaning towards relaxing tbh!
steak dinner tonight which he’ll cook when he’s home, I’ve had 2 bits of very sad news in 2 days and I think I may just run myself a bath and watch some iPlayer while I’m there.

Go for the sandwich, no washing up!

what are you cooking @lucysmam ?

Natsku · 08/05/2026 17:32

I'm just finished eating dinner and now I'm sorting out the ryanair app for our holiday next month as apparently you now need to use an app for checking in. As soon as DD has finished doing the dishes we're going to watch House and eat chocolate.

GingerJelly99 · 08/05/2026 17:32

I've just got in from work, freed my toes from my tights (bliss), made a cup of tea and I'm sat on my bed, going to read a chapter of my book.

Meeting a friend in a local pub for food later. Lovely.

SerendipityCat · 08/05/2026 17:34

Sitting on the sofa with cat no.2, digesting a Chinese takeaway. Three meat chow mein for anyone interested, and it was rather nice. Will be making a cup of tea when I can be bothered.

LindorDoubleChoc · 08/05/2026 17:36

Procrastinating getting started on cooking dinner (chicken chasseur). Got to get off this sofa!

Copiousamountsofpulses · 08/05/2026 17:39

Waiting for DH to bring Pizzas home, then M&S treats for snacking later. Diet actually does start Monday! Have a lovely weekend all 😊.

Kangarude · 08/05/2026 17:41

Enjoying a glass of wine & watching the Chase whilst waiting for my chinese to be delivered.

CleanSkin · 08/05/2026 17:42

Resting on the sofa having watered some of the garden plants in pots (used non-soapy grey water so it was a physical job) hoping that the rain will water the rest of the garden overnight. Have also fed the dog so am staying out of the way of his Friday-treat-sardine-breath. Also wondering what the heck is going to happen in the UK now that Reform have all these new local government “experts” actually in positions of power & authority.

Sat down eating a home made panang curry, recovering from a migraine. Plan to have a bath and early bed when kids are asleep!

gingercat02 · 08/05/2026 17:44

On a Friday @lucysmam?🤣
Watching the election coverage, just back from the hair salon. About to go and collect burgers for tea.
Then 🍷🍷

Rainbow1235 · 08/05/2026 17:45

Sat reading my book outside in the sun then it’s shower wine and a box set haven’t decided what’s to eat yet

gingeristhenewblack43 · 08/05/2026 17:50

Waiting to take the guinea pigs to their nail trim appt at 6.30. When I get back home it will be wine and TV. Not sure what’s for tea.

JustGiveMeReason · 08/05/2026 17:52

Watching the election coverage whilst MNing and looking up other things on-line.

GameOfJones · 08/05/2026 18:00

I've been pottering in the kitchen with a glass of wine listening to my audiobook (Weyward by Emilia Hart - it's excellent!) DDs are in the living room watching rubbish and having some downtime after school. DH is upstairs having a shower. I've just put the pie I made with the leftovers from Christmas dinner in the oven as I figured I should get it out of the freezer! We'll have that with peas and gravy.

Anjo2011 · 08/05/2026 18:02

Sitting in the sun on the patio. Bbq on, reading my book. Bliss.

TheChosenTwo · 08/05/2026 18:02

Wow some of you guys eat your dinner/tea really early! Do you not get peckish before bed again?! Guess it depends on when you go to bed 😂

FrothyCothy · 08/05/2026 18:05

Where are you people with sun? It’s chilly and grey here!

Am sat on sofa under a blanket with the dog waiting to take eldest to a sleepover. Then it’ll be some kind of reality TV with DH and the youngest and I’ll probably fall asleep on the sofa. Been battling an earache all day so need to go find some paracetamol. Ate a big lunch so no tea for me and the rest of them will have to scavenge up something for themselves!

SardonicSardine · 08/05/2026 18:08

Just got back from a run. Need to go and have a shower, then - energy levels permitting - sow some seeds. Or maybe flop on the sofa. Could go either way.

Whyjustwhy83 · 08/05/2026 18:11

Lying in the bath hiding to the toddler goes to bed.

Arlanymor · 08/05/2026 18:23

Going out to have a bloody big glass of wine because Plaid have overcome Reform and there is no way they will form a coalition with the turquoise people. I am so proud of the people of Wales, even in areas where Reform came first - five constituencies out of 16 - the largest percentage by which Reform won was Wrecsam (9.9%). We have a very complex political history in Wales and so many people were thinking we would kowtow to populism. Yes Reform will have a strong presence in the Senedd, no one is saying otherwise, and people have valid reasons for voting turquoise, they have told me (I don't agree, but they are valid to them). But tonight, I am so thrilled so that a party that literally exists to make Wales better, that only exists in Wales, have triumphed in a time when the cost-of-living drives people towards any lie anyone will tell them. Cymru am byth.

troppibambini6 · 08/05/2026 18:56

On the sofa under a heated blanket with the dog scrolling. Thai food has just arrived, I’ve spent the day blitzing the house and all washing and ironing is done. Sounds very sad but it makes me happy going into the weekend organised. We have a lot of kids sport and very little down time this weekend.

managingexpectations · 08/05/2026 19:30

Working! I’m here until 0300 and I’m struggling already. Plus I’m irritable and my colleague is being lax, to say the least so I’m doing the work of 2 and it’s making me super grumpy !
