I've used the tumble dryer more than needed as too lazy to put on the airer as I normally Would. Everytime I put baby down for any time He creates. I think he's coming down with what dd has.

Haven't made our bed

Toddler dd still in her pjs and had ice cream for lunch.. Tbh she's not well and it's all she's wanted.

Made a really short car journey whilst mum was here with kids because again I am truly in a lazy knackered mood.. It took longer to drive and park than would have to walk.

And for tea tonight we're having beige food.. Nuggets and chips..

Let's hear yours.

Not done it yet, but I’m going for dinner at Toby carvery and I’m looking forward to it Grin .

Had a McDonald's wrap for breakfast. I have been up all night with PMS pains. I am a fat bloater and ate the whole thing too, even though it would feed a MNetter's family of four for a main course.

Also, I let DD watch Cbeebies for a couple of hours, whereas I know that most children her age are only allowed to watch 30 minutes of TV every other Christmas day and obviously spend all their time learning the cello.

Cleaned my loo with loads of bleach.

Booked some long haul flights for early next year.

Going out for drinks tonight as DS is at his dad's house (we're divorced) and I'm thoroughly looking forward to it as I (shock horror) love socialising with other people.

Absolutepowercorrupts · 28/02/2020 14:13

It's my birthday and my husband has only given me a card. I haven't cried or lost my temper because he hasn't given me a present or arranged anything special.

JustBecauseItWorkedForYou · 28/02/2020 14:15

Haha I regularly hide in kitchen with choc lol

We've had peppa on most of the day too.

And I may even go and collect my pfb from school as its raining and I don't want my snowflake to get wet.. OK so he's prob already drenched as been on a trip today but if he's back earlier than walking he can entertain the toddler and stop her pulling a by about for 30 min whilst I jump in shower .

I need to know the business about cleaning the loo with bleach. Didn't everyone do this 😰

Thecurtainsofdestiny · 28/02/2020 14:16

I have also used the loo brushes today.

And if someone comes to the door I will answer it.

bashoono25 · 28/02/2020 14:17

Given my kids quavers

geordiema77 · 28/02/2020 14:20

Got on well with my MIL. Sent her a WhatsApp asking how she is and had a quick catch up.
Obvs. spent most of the day browsing MN when I should be blazing a trail SLAYING it at work and/or developing my side hustle.

Fish and chips for tea tonight. This will further cement me as Best Mum Ever and score me Brownie points with DH so hopefully I don't have to lay him later. Hoping to wrap up on sofa and scoff Bourbons watching Vera.

EmmiJay · 28/02/2020 14:20

Answered my front door. Wasn't expecting anyone.

Iooselipssinkships · 28/02/2020 14:21

Took the kids to school in my pyjamas.
(I stayed in the car though)

mrsBtheparker · 28/02/2020 14:23

we're having beige food.. Nuggets and chips.

Surely that's an orange tea, especially with baked beans!

TwoZeroTwoZero · 28/02/2020 14:23

Went back to bed when dh and the kids went out this morning.

Ate carbs for dinner.

This evening we'll be having takeaway for tea, as will our dc.

Iooselipssinkships · 28/02/2020 14:23

And happy birthday @Absolutepowercorrupts hoping he has something planned for this evening.

mrsBtheparker · 28/02/2020 14:26

I read the DM

Isn't that a reportable offence on MN? I always love how the DM gets slagged off but everyone seems to know what's in it.

ZsaZsaMc · 28/02/2020 14:31

What is the toilet brush bleach thing???

SpeedofaSloth · 28/02/2020 14:36

Is it when you clean the loo, then put more bleach down, and leave your loo brush in the water to clean too. I do this but apparently it's Not The Way.

EmmaBridgewater20 · 28/02/2020 14:37

Gave my child soreen for breakfast. Then let him scatter a whole box of breadsticks about our table in Starbucks so I could have a good catch up with with a friend Blush

BBoodles · 28/02/2020 14:37

Ate my lunch in my car cause I am jealous of my colleagues and their full social lives whilst my weekend will consist of ahold ferrying and parent caring

BearSoFair · 28/02/2020 14:38

I went for a coffee with MIL, just me and her, and enjoyed it.

JackieFazakerley · 28/02/2020 14:49

Used dettol instead of zoflora.

I do this regularly! What's so bad? What's the alternative? Confused

Canadianpancake · 28/02/2020 14:54

I'm going to have a drink tonight. Probably a whole bottle of wine to myself whilst shoveling Pringles into my mouth. I'll make sure I'm undisturbed in this process be sending my Ds up to his room to play on his Xbox online.

CandiceSucksCandy · 28/02/2020 14:57

Because you are killing all the dolphins you slovenly snowflake! You should get your hands down there are scrub it, but make sure your DH does his own or you will have to LTB.
I too used a loo brush today.
And I've eaten a proper amount of food
And I'm going to go out and get drunk tonight
And I'm going to give my friend's child a lift tonight because it's raining, and I will probably give my friend a lift home from work too

dottiedodah · 28/02/2020 14:58

Well I had bought sandwiches from M and S for my lunch and DD too ! followed up by a jolly nice meringue and another one for later ! Also couldnt face the pouring rain/struggle to park car for work due on it, and left it to DH! Still cleaned loo with brush though (didnt know I wasnt supposed to TBH)
