Yep this is us most nights, that or just watching tv. We're just too knackered to do anything else atm.

Windygate · 10/05/2019 20:18

Yep, I'm on here and texting with a friend. DH has his nose in a book, we are sharing a bottle of wine. All is well after a shit week.

reytmardy · 10/05/2019 20:25

DH and DS are in living room watching Disney Tarzan. I'm in the kitchen with a bowl of rice Krispies 💤

MsAdorabelleDearheartVonLipwig · 10/05/2019 20:29

Ditto. I’m in the snug on my phone and Dh is in the bath with my iPad. Kids have a friend round and are screaming with laughter at YouTube in the living room. They’re 10 and 12 and they already have a better social life than me.

Ginkypig · 10/05/2019 20:37

He's at work.

I'm on my own watching series 4 of lucifer on Netflix debating if I can be arsed to get up and make a coffee.

He's in the bath. I'm downstairs. Kids asleep. As is the cat who is snoring next to me.

MinesaPinot · 10/05/2019 20:50

On sofa with DH who is watching Question of Sport. I'm on the laptop chatting to you lot on MN and looking at handbags on Naughtipidgins whilst waiting for Jamestown to start at 9.

To be fair we've got a 50th birthday night out tomorrow which promises to be quite heavy so we're conserving our energy (cough!)
