I'll start. I'm sat on the train and I finish work early today. And it's sunny.

Hope you're OK OP.
My good news is that I've got a really nice new dress from Fat Face that I'm wearing out for a family meal tonight.
It's the small things!!

It's Saturday morning so I will shortly get a few hours to myself while DS naps and DP watches him. Audiobooks, walk and coffee Grin

ZigZagToTheBeach · 19/09/2020 08:50

After being in self isolation I get to go out today and it's the best feeling!

Fatted · 19/09/2020 08:50

Its Saturday, I have the weekend off and I am refusing to leave the house. My kids and I are spending all day in bed gaming.

orangejuicer · 19/09/2020 08:51

Also hope you're ok OP. Let us know if you want to talk.

Sanpro · 19/09/2020 08:52

@orangejuicer you sound like someone after own heart. Only my baby is very small so will have to come with me in a carrier but walks, audiobooks and coffee are on the agenda here!

ssd · 19/09/2020 08:56

Thanks. I'm OK. Just done with the news.

I managed to get a PlayStation 5 pre order in place just a couple of minutes before they sold out. It arrives in November and I'm really excited for it. I'll have plenty of new games to keep me busy through this winter lockdown so it should just fly over.

JalapenoDave · 19/09/2020 09:00

@aLilNonnyMouse the PS5 looks incredible. My DH managed to get one pre-ordered too.
Happy gaming!

I saw a shooting star.
My cleaner is back on Thursday.
My lovely friend’s DD has found a college place at last.

@ssd

Thanks. I'm OK. Just done with the news.
Me too I think a lot of people feel the same
TheGrayChapter · 19/09/2020 09:05

I decided tomorrow morning I’m getting up taking the kids to the sea side!

We have sat inside for months and months and I want one day....so I’m having it! I want to enjoy the last few days of sunshine. We all need it.

Hope your ok OP

StCharlotte · 19/09/2020 09:05

Oh OP I feel your pain. I hit rock bottom with it all yesterday and spent half of the day in tears. My good news is that it's no longer yesterday Grin

BlueJava · 19/09/2020 09:06

My good news: I have a 3 day weekend which is unusual and very welcome. It's sunny! I managed to get a health appointment which I need for Monday and I'm pleased about that. My 2 DS went to Uni recently and seem to be enjoying it so far - relief and also feel proud. I can see squirrels chasing each other through the oak trees and it's making me laugh.

LucyWarlowsRightHand · 19/09/2020 09:06

Great idea for a thread OP, I’m having a rough week on almost all counts.

Yesterday I ordered a new t-shirt that says ‘fearless’ on it, and it’s arriving today!

It’s the little things Wink

AntiHop · 19/09/2020 09:06

I'm going to have take away tonight.

@AntiHop

I'm going to have take away tonight.
My friend’s bringing me some extra lasagne she made! Home delivery!
TheGrayChapter · 19/09/2020 09:08

Should add I’m confident enough that we can social distance, the beach I’ve chosen is very quiet, (a friend lives nearly by and said it’s been very slow) and will set ourselves away from anyone! Will take our camping toilet so we don’t have to use any facilities and set it up inside the beach shelter. Will also take our own picnic

Curlygirly · 19/09/2020 09:10

Having a really lovely lunch at home later and my mum is finally coming over...and I did ALL the food prep yesterday.

Pearsapiece · 19/09/2020 09:11

I'm back to work on Monday after 6 months on furlough... Can't bloody wait! And ds is making me laugh today

Lemonyfuckit · 19/09/2020 09:11

I know exactly what you mean OP and I hope you are ok. Thanks
I've had a completely rough week too (and had a little cry this morning when heard about Ruth Bader Ginsburg), but my good news is: we were waiting on my DF's biopsy results to see if he has cancer. And found out last night he doesn't. So the best news.
And today I'm seeing a friend for a socially distant coffee that I haven't seen since December, and I bought some foxes crunch creams to go with out coffee.... Grin

Grobagsforever · 19/09/2020 09:12

Today is the last day of my ration challenge, I've raised £1300 pounds for a refugee charity and tomorrow I can food again. I've going to have a cooked breakfast.

My extension build is going really well.

I finished C25K on Thursday, even ran longer to get to actual 5k. Third time trying to finish the programme. And now I actually enjoy running!

5 year old got the 3 year old up and sneaked downstairs and put the tv on thinking we couldn’t hear. Another lie in.
