To think this is not how my Saturday night was supposed to go?

[LumpyMcBentface]

I've been on a non drinking week (yay me!). This involved being sober through a family party where they were all drinking lovely prosecco while I drank coffee. Painful.

So my 'reward' for good behaviour was that me and Dh were going to have a little drinkie tonight. I sat out in the garden until it got dark reading Cosmo and drinking nice wine, which was lovely, while Dh did some music practice and generally pottered.

I came indoors to a row between ds2 and DD. Separated them and got them into bed. DJ and I settled down to watch tv. I offered to get him a drink and he said he wasn't sure he wanted one. Half an hour later he got restless legs. The only way he has ever found to stop it is going to bed. We tried a walk around the garden, he had a shower, but it was no good.

He's gone to bed and I'm nursing the last glass of my bottle watching Netflix. What a waste of a bottle of wine.

Anyone else having a rock n roll bank holiday weekend? I feel like a right loser.

[Jellybean83]

Sounds like a great night!

I've just opened a strawberry and lime cider, I don't usually drink alone but DS has just gone to bed, DP out at pub, I'm watching reruns of GoT and I just really fancied one.... And I might have another!

[LumpyMcBentface]

Omg your Leeeshure Robe sounds amazing. I can't quite picture it though. Do you have a link? I feel I need one in my life.

[70isaLimitNotaTarget]

Its a Carole Hochman from QVC.
I'm middle aged and menopausal, I don't do slinky nightwear or trackie bottoms.


DH does the "Eh?" face when I wander about in it, but it keeps me covered respectably without me combusting

[Soubriquet]

I just have a onesie...I love my onesie. It's so comfortable

[IHaveBrilloHair]

I'm a bit stuck in my pj's atm, I have to wear a back brace since I broke my back and I'm v tempted by £60 slippers, slippers ffs.

[thenightsky]

£60 for slippers?? Hey big spender [gring]

Totally Primark here.... 9 quid jammes and 3 quid slippers.

[LumpyMcBentface]

I once spent thirty quid, twice, on cashmere bed socks. Dh shrunk both of them by putting them through a normal wash. No regrets, I'd happily buy them again. You can't put a price on comfy feet.

[Salmotrutta]

Is this your Leeesure Robe 70isaLimit??

[Soubriquet]

The most expensive pair of shoes I have ever bought...was for then 2 year old Dd.

They were water proof boots with a sheepskin lining that still looked stylish enough to be worn with trousers. Cost me £50 but I got my money's worth out of them. She wore them every fucking day over winter. She's only just outgrown them about 3 months ago..so now I have to buy a new pairn

[LumpyMcBentface]

Omg

[paddlingpool]

Love your pic OP, if he said wake him up, then wake him up , meanwhile enjoy getting a lil sozzled, you can always recover in the morn

[LaContessaDiPlump]

DH got blind drunk last night at the pub and had spent today recovering, so has been rubbish company. He went to bed an hour ago after nodding off for the hour before that, and I've been sewing name labels onto school jumpers and planning my allotment layout to pass the time. However I am relatively cheerful as I caught the last half hour of The Full Monty on Movie Mix it's good stuff!

Off to bed now, while next door have a raucous party and enjoy being cool young things. Sigh.

[Soubriquet]

Covetting. Isn't that a sin?

[Mammylamb]

Ovens need cleaning???

[IHaveBrilloHair]

slippers

[Soubriquet]

You could actually take your kids to school in those slippers and not be caught out as actually wearing slippers! You have to buy them

[LumpyMcBentface]

Fuck. They are the holy grail. This thread is going to cost me hard cash.

[BodsAuntieFlo]

My Sat night has turned to ratshit. I have had NO WINE I'm currently stood at the door of a stable while DH has his hand up a horses arse. I'm in jammies, wellies with no fucking socks on and am freezing my arse off. considering making an excuse to run into the house to get wine

[PovertyPain]

Sorry, I don't care how comfy they are, they are really fugly.

[PovertyPain]

Sorry, that sounded very rude.

[LumpyMcBentface]

I'm all about the comfort, not the beauty. If it was acceptable to go out in a onesie I'd have a vibrant social life. As it is, I only leave the house to go in the garden for a fag...

[beelover]

I've just watched all of the Full Monty and am three quarters of the way through a bottle of wine, only 2 glasses the size of buckets worth so kidding myself its not much. Now DH watching MOTD so think I will be shortly finishing the bottle.

[IHaveBrilloHair]

I haven't been out except for medical stuff in a month anyway, I need the slippers.
I did buy a cake stand this week though if that helps?

[LumpyMcBentface]

I'm considering a second beer. It's still only just past eleven. Dh might murder me in the morning, but hey, you snooze you lose, right?

[Champagneformyrealfriends]

Joining in. Glass of red because why the hell not. I'm supposed to be dieting though and there's bloody cheesecake in the fridge.

I love my onesie-I look like a teletubby in it but it's comfy and warm
