Morning lovely lot.

I've been awake since about 4:30 with bad cramps and DD woke up at 6:30. Have washed the school uniforms etc and now I'm snuggled on the couch with a hot water bottle, a hot water (don't drink caffeine during the time of the month because it can make cramps stronger) and my bath robe. Watching old episodes of NCIS and I think I'm gonna he staying here for the day. DD is playing at the coffee table with her L.O.L dolls and she's said she wants a PJ day too.

*What are you all up to?

Have an absolutely wonderful day xx

Grizzly drizzly day here too. I’m drinking tea and catching up on planning and marking as we’re at a wedding tomorrow. Ds2 is drawing, Dh is reading and Ds1 is out with his mates in the rain doing god knows what.

He’ll be home soon and will enter the house like a tornado, wet and starving and shatter the peace (very nearly a teenager and acting it!)

Had a lovely long bath this morning and a wander into town for a coffee and to get a few bits with dh and ds2 so not all bad.

DH has been out with DD all-day (dance lessons then they've gone to the football) so making the most of the time on my own.

Went to the next sale to see if the PJs I've been eyeing up were in it. They weren't still full price but picked up a nice t-shirt.

Got a maccies breakfast.

Dismantled a disgusting shoe rack that was built into our allway wall when we bought our house. Sanded the skirting in the hall ready to be glossed and gave it all a good wipe down and hoover.

Hoovered the front room.

Washed up.

Did the last load of washing, dried it and actually put it away 😱

Caught up on some EastEnders and Hollyoaks with a brew and a flapjack.

Now contemplating what I'm going to have for tea later while DH is round SIL to watch the boxing.

I peaked way too early today. I was in and out of Ikea with what I went for and nothing else in half an hour, including a coffee and a pastry.

I've slumped all afternoon. I have no more desire to get DS away from the TV than he does. Fortunately he was at his drama club for two and a half hours this morning so he hasn't been slumped all day.

I’m having a lovely day. Was my turn for a lie in so OH got up with DS and I slept until 10.45!!! Can’t remember the last time I did that. Since then I’ve been on the sofa, had a bacon sandwich and put DS down for a nap. He’s back up again now so we are eating snacks and watching the BFG. Pizza for dinner!

We took our two youngest to football training this morning (ds1 came too but not his day to train). Then came home and dropped ds1 with his friend and they went out. Then we went into the town for haircuts for ds2 and dh and had some lunch and did some shopping. We tidied up at home. Ds1 came home and is upstairs with his friend. Ds2 is playing. Dd is watching a movie. Dh is asleep and I'm on here. Two little ones have done their homework so I'm glad that's out of the way. Ds1 will do his later but he needs less help so that's easier. Hoping for a thoroughly relaxing afternoon.

DH has taken DS out for the entire day! So DD 6 weeks and I are currently in bed watching Killing Eve (well I am, she's asleep). Ocado shop will be here in 45 mins and I may have added some last minute treats on the 11pm feed last night so I am excited to eat. When DS gets back he will be having tea and a bath and then going straight to bed for an early night. I will then probably transfer myself from bed to the sofa to have a movie night with DH.

Took DS for hot chocolate and swimming, then we went for a little shop (new jumper, pants and socks for him, new coat for me).

Lunch at home and now we’re under a blanket on the sofa watching Matilda. X will pick DS up at 3 so then I’ll have a nice bath and get ready to go out for dinner with friends this evening.

Housework tomorrow! Doing a complete audit of DS and my clothes as they seem to be multiplying...

Housework here, I've been a bit slack of late so there's more than usual but I really must put the effort in and get back on top of it, living in a hovel is not doing much good for my mental state.

It's DS1's 14th birthday today! He's been playing his new Mario Kart game all morning, but DH has taken him out. For a bit of father-son bonding? Er, no; DH needs a new computer fag 🙄 So I have used the time productively not and made some peanut butter ice cream. When they come back, we'll figure out what the rest of the day holds and have chicken burgers and birthday cake for dinner.
