get my lazy arse off this chair, stop reading MN and playing a pointless computer game and DO something?

DH has taken the DC to MiL's for two days. Yesterday I worked like mad on the spring cleaning but today all I have done is sit here wasting my precious child-free time. For five whole hours. Blush

I'm MumsNetting today to avoid housework. Works for me. I only feel slight guilt.

Enjoy your break and dont feel guilty, you did housework yesterday you have earned your rest!

maybe put some washing on? or other things that you can do and then leave to it?

Hmmm ... That didn't work, did it? Just made another Brew instead.

How about something along the lines of "I expect my 97 year old granny to babysit more often?" Does that help?

If not it might have to be "breast is best" or "all foreigners should be deported" ... or maybe a good teenage mums thread? Grin

Ok then here goes...

Get up woman! Go and do something fun that you can't usually. Go for a long walk at your own pace? Go out for tea with someone? Window shopping? Real shopping? Long bath and paint your nails?

MNing is fine but you'll regret it if you get to the end of the day and that's all you've done, you know you will.

Go on, up you get!

Waltons I will get off my arse and do the dishes if you do something too. I should be doing housework rather than MNing so dishes are necessary, while you're having a childfree day so you should be reading a book or having a ridiculously long bath or something...

First stop the ironing.
