To think I'd love a Thursday evening glass of wine

Staying at my parents along with my 2 young kids for a few days. Kids are in bed and I'd just love to be sitting down with a glass of wine for an hour before going to bed. We'd usually have a glass on a Thursday night at home, sometimes a cheeky second, sure it's nearly the weekend.

But it would be frowned upon at my parents house. They do sometimes open a bottle of wine at the weekend but they'd think I had some sort of problem if I wanted a glass on a Thursday. And I'd feel a bit silly having a glass on my own while they have a cup of tea.

Goodness I'm nearly 40, why can't I just have a glass of wine when I fancy one! Guess I'll just have to wait until tomorrow night.

Your choice, but totally irrational.

I work Tues-Thurs so Thursday is my end of week. I always drink wine on a Thursday Smile

@starzig you would be proud of me. I was sipping on a lovely glass of red wine while preparing dinner and also looking after 2 children and a cat. Children are now in bed and I'm on a second glass. Oh how nice it is to be in your own home and be able to sit down with DH and enjoy a whole 2 glasses of wine on a Friday evening!

Always travel with car wine. Never stay anywhere where it’s frowned upon to have car wine. You’re welcome.

Cheers winter I remembered to buy wine today and raised a glass to you as I cooked dinner (also looking after 2 dcs!) Grin better late than never!

But how is the cat @winterwonderly? Are your drunken and fecklessly looking after a feline? That will never do.

Yes better late night than never! The cat and children appear to be unaffected by my indulgence in a couple of glasses of wine. I however am starting to fade and feel that it's time to sober up with a glass of water and take myself off to bed. Goodnight everyone, hope you've all had an enjoyable start to the weekend.
