Finished work today for Christmas (Hurray!) WIBU to leave DP to put the kids to bed (DD2 is being a bit of a nightmare), just head to the bath with a glass of fizzy red and ignore the chaos?? Neither of us has had a decent nights sleep in weeks and I just need a break!

If your dp is happy to do that then go for it, it'll make a massive difference to how you feel :)

The bath and fizzy wine was just a pipe dream... I've settled for a bit of apple tart with custard and a cup of tea.

Fizzy redShock I have never heard of such deviance

Fizzy red back on! Really you should try it if you haven't done. Banrock Station do a nice sparkly shiraz, but tonight we're having a Jacobs Creek one. Bit like sparkly ribena with a punch.

Bath on hold til I can get half an hour in house on my own..

Fizzy red nice - Envy as pregnant and off wine

finally got my bath at 4.15 this pm when DD2 was having a nap and DD1 was watching telly - not the usual pre-bed indulgence, but did the trick! Was also in majestic this pm to stock up on Xmas wine - asked if they had any sparkly red to be told "we don't stock THAT!?" - nevermind, will just have to cope with prosecco
