Is it too early for wine?

Well, is it?

House full of cold. 2 unhappy whingy snotty children. No sleep for many many nights.

And there is half a bottle left in the fridge.

And it's after 12.

AIBU??

Nope, my motto "it's 5 O'clock somewhere"

You will feel hideous on a couple of hours if you do - save it for later when they're all tucked up, and have a lovely bath or summat too.

Aw, its 5 o'clock somewhere, gotta pinch thatGrin

My fave is 'it's beer o'clock' Grin

What Shredded said

Save it for tonight so you can really relax and enjoy it.

SayCoolNowSayWhip · 22/09/2013 13:12

Christ if I waited till both my children were in bed asleep at the same time, I'd never have a sodding drink! Wink

Oh its Sunday you've got to try a bit whilst prepping the dinner so 11 isn't too early to open the bottle - it's go to breathe Grin

Tee2072 · 22/09/2013 14:30

Now it's 230...definitely late enough.

SugarHut · 22/09/2013 15:10

It's still too early. Have it tonight when the snot monsters are in bed and enjoy it properly. Getting tipsy and tetchy off half a bottle before DC's bedtimes is not going to improve anyone's afternoon.

Do something easy but to make you feel better and in control. Get everyone's clothes laid out ready for tomorrow. Then, when you get a bit more peace and quiet later, veg in front of the tv, glass in hand :)

There's a fantastic Alan Jackson song called "It's five o'clock somewhere". Its one of my favourites. It's the weekend, it's the middle of the afternoon, have a Wine if you want, I've got one and anyone who doesn't approve can take their judgey pants and sugar off Wink

ohforfoxsake · 22/09/2013 15:38

I had one with my lunch at 2pm. Now just had a brew and am reading on my bed.

Proper Sunday afternoon.

Alliwantisaroomsomewhere · 22/09/2013 15:40

I would have one now if I could, but I am doing some catch up paperwork. If I have one now, suddenly next week won't worry me!

EvaBeaversProtege · 22/09/2013 17:18

Mrspremise, that's my fave too :) hence the quote :)

I'm just opening a west coast cooler now, it's past 5pm!!!
