We have had a zoom quiz with sisters in London and Belgium and assorted nephews and nieces. I have made flapjacks. Those two things count towards making it an exciting day. Roll on bedtime

I'll join in. Currently hiding in the bath with a massive gin while DH referees the kids. My mum died suddenly in the weeks before lockdown so processing enormous emotions and confinement not going well.

I'm self employed in the events industry so that's erm, quiet Confused

I have made dinner approximately 867 times since March. I actually made dinner at 4.15 today just to get it over and done with Grin I gave them all the death stare so no-one mentioned the time!

On my alone time today (which I'm lucky to have I know) I went for a bike ride. It chucked down with rain and my chain came off in such a fuckity way I couldn't get it back on so had to push my bike halfway home (at least that took longer) covered in oil.

I came over all earthy and made some bread this afternoon and cocked it up so it's got about as much rise as a flaccid penis and what a waste of flour and yeast!

I then broke my Fitbit.

When I get out of this bath my only plan is to put on my nightwear and collapse on the sofa with a bottle glass of wine as today is clearly not my day and I don't want to break anything else!

Lovely DH is going to sort kids and kitchen etc, I'm so grateful for a good partner. My absolute heart goes out to single and unsupported parents right now. Bloody hell you've got it tough Thanks

Ooh that feels better! Thanks OP!

AAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHH FUCKEDY FUCK FUCK FUCKY OFF EVERYONE. fucking sick of dh and his winding up of DS. Reminind him not to swear or call DS names (he's onky joking as his dad with him but sometimes it's a bit mean). Fucking sick of dh asking me if I think I'm pregnant. Then telling me that my mood 'swings' would suggest I am. No dickhead, I'm just pissed off at you.
Sick of feeling guilty that I want some time alone. I take DS shopping with me 2 times a week to give dh some space yet I've had no space from either of them for 10 fucking weeks now.
I just want to sit alone, in bed and watch Netflix and gogglebox and eat an entire cheesecake to myself.

Pwar I needed that more than I realised I did, thanks.

Mrsorganmorgan · 23/05/2020 18:31

Impatientwino I am so sorry for the loss of your Mum I do know what it is like, but you really made me laugh - the way you put words together!

Impatientwino · 23/05/2020 18:45

Thanks @Mrsorganmorgan! We have to laugh don't we Smile

Muppetry76 · 23/05/2020 18:54

@Impatientwino that's closer to bread than I've been to a flaccid penis for 10 weeks!!! Thanks for the giggle x

Sorry for your loss Flowers

Can I join in? I dearly love my two kids but when they start crying in stereo it's like a knife going through my brain. And I know ds (2 yo) is fed up of not going anywhere but if he makes another lunge to escape the front door I'm going to gaffer tape him to the sofa. Hes just learned to open doors as well, so much slamming of doors going on, usually when the baby is sleeping. And hes recently developed a habit of throwing things when he has a strop. Usually at me. As well as massive screaming tantrums when he doesn't get his way. Which is a lot considering hes a toddler, and has no sense of self preservation. I can even hear him screaming now while dh is trying to get him ready for bed. What I would give for 48 hours of peace, quiet and no screaming tantrums. Since that isn't happening I might as well join him. Aaaarrrrrrgggghhhh!

And now my fucking dishwasher has broken!

DH (who has as much technical wizardry as a koala) is watching a video on YouTube of how to fix it. I'm not going to lie I'm not hopeful Confused

Not that I would do much better mind! We know a 'man' who fixes them as a sort of retirement hobby so am hoping he may be more inclined to come and help!

Am about to order paper plates and cups etc on amazon because there is no bloody way I'm relying on solely washing up the ten tonnes of crockery our 4 person household seems to produce each day.

I'll join you in an AAAARRRGGGGHHHH, OP.

I've just ended things with my DP of 10 years (looooong time coming) and now I feel like an odd sock going round the tumble Grin

Keep going everyone, you're doing so well.
