Sit there - - >
And let me give you a good kicking.
It seems to be the day for it :)

I've come out of lurking for my kicking.

Been in my pyjamas all day sitting on the sofa watching every episode of peppa pig known to mankind. That's just how I roll and has nothing to do with the fact the ds has the lurgy and that I haven't had more than 2 minutes to breathe all day

Terfing Grin. I'm swithering about doing one of the maths/science type ones. I'm sure I can fit in some studying during the Jezza Kyle ad breaks.

JaneEyre70 · 19/02/2018 22:14

Oh don't forget me. I'm the worst kind of SAHM - my youngest is 19 Grin. If anyone needs a kicking, it's moi. For I am shamelessly happy and thoroughly love my life, especially when they've all fecked off to work and I can sit cuddling the dog and watching My 600lb life and Hoarders and feel equally skinny and tidy Grin.

Am I too late to present my fat, lazy, pyjama clad arse for a good hard kicking? SAHM, three DDs, youngest aged 8. I do watch tv, but mainly edumacational history programmes so I'm deeply intellectual, obviously.

2 kids in school (which ends at lunchtime in the country I live in, and there's almost no formal childcare available, but I'm sure I could swap favours/borrow someone's granny if I was really determined) and I'm ready for my kicking but I'm hoping to be able to put it off for a while by having an interminable argument about the difference between "unemployed" and "economically inactive".

Booie09 · 20/02/2018 06:52

I'll take a kicking for all of us! It will be worth it for all the times I could do pick up and drop off all the school plays I have watched! If you think I'm being smug you are right.

StealthPolarBear · 20/02/2018 07:46

toomuchtooold no international kickings sorry. Brexit, you know

My husband is highly amused he's married to a prositute, I informed him of this little gem last night.

Chienrouge · 20/02/2018 08:51

I reckon DH would sue me under the trades description act if I told him he was married to a prostitute...

SussexMedley · 20/02/2018 08:52

It's not exclusive to SAHMs though, I've heard people claim that marriage itself is institutionalised prostitution. So any married woman is a sex worker.

Guess all the WOHMs with SAHDs are showing REALLY admirable work ethics!

DuckBilledAardvark · 20/02/2018 08:53

StealthPolarBear · 20/02/2018 08:54

@SussexMedley I did once have sex with the ex h in exchange for a kebab for tea.

It was worth it.

SussexMedley · 20/02/2018 09:26

@troodiedoo, you cheap harlot. How could you debase yourself so?

If you were any kind of lady, you would have been sure to insist on TWO kebabs.

Queenofthestress · 20/02/2018 09:29

@zzzzz I need to pinch your acronym, I'm the same boat here!
Although I need to reschedule my kicking, CDC home appointment today so full schedule, sorry! Grin

MrsKoala · 20/02/2018 09:53

I hope you insisted on both sides of the bargain being consumed concurrently?

Snap.

mustbemad17 · 20/02/2018 10:10

Yeah DP wasn't too impressed with the prostitute thing, apparently i'm slacking 🙄 Currently trying to find my legal standing on refusing to give sex even after payment has already been made in advance

MrsKoala · 20/02/2018 10:17

Can you all stop talking it's ER o'clock here!

NataliaOsipova · 20/02/2018 10:17

an interminable argument about the difference between "unemployed" and "economically inactive".

Don't get me started on this one. It's laughable that people don't know this; it's not some arcane point in economic theory, it's like not knowing the difference between the Bank of England and the TSB. Anybody who reads a serious paper (or even the Daily Fail, for that matter) or even watches the crap TV news cannot fail to be aware of it.....

I'm sat with a coffee about to watch Shetland
Marvellous
