All the plasters in my house have Trolls or Snoopy on them Grin

Today I went swimming. After the pool, I spent 25 minutes in the showers but I didn't get to wash myself at all.

OmgIThinkILikeYou · 06/02/2022 17:48

Don't mind me, just watching Sarah and Duck.

I hide vegetables in my Spaghetti Bolognaise.

Shouted downstairs "why is there a dinosaur in the toilet and paper all over the bathroom floor?" just now.

I haven’t had a full nights sleep in seven years.

I’ve bought 4 pairs of school shoes in the last 5 months.

That's enough of the whys.
The dogs water isn't a lol pool.

I could hold a full conversation with you about the pros and cons of all the different brands of nappies 🙈🙈

The vacuum has swallowed another piece of lego

I'm skint.

I'm currently wearing a necklace made of pasta that's been painted

TerribleTuna · 06/02/2022 17:54

I spend my baths cramped at one end of the tub and my showers taking it in turns to stand under the water...

oh and I haven't pee'd alone for some time now.

I sway and bounce whenever I stand still.

I count as I put the plates back in the cupboard

I sleep with one ear open

I would laugh in the face of anyone trying to torture me using sleep deprivation

@SpookyMargot

Just let it go, OP. Let it goooo, let it goooo....
We've moved on from this one recently... At the moment we aren't talking about Bruno... 🤦‍♀️

I was quite happy without a pet, so was DH.
We have a cat.
This morning I was also in a pet shop looking at grasshoppers, mealworms and locusts. Hmm

girafferafferaffe · 06/02/2022 17:56

I'm having to rescue a mermaid from her cage. And being told I'm doing it wrong.

NorthernChinchilla · 06/02/2022 17:57

My pockets are full of 'precious' stones, there's a collection of sticks by my front door, and I know loads about Minecraft despite never having played it....

Magpiecomplex · 06/02/2022 17:57

Every week I do a washing load composed almost entirely of school shirts. And another for muddy PE kit.

WetLookKnitwear · 06/02/2022 17:57

A 30 minute drive alone in the car is a nice break

ZoeTheThornyDevil · 06/02/2022 17:57

I spent three hours up a ladder yesterday sticking glow in the dark stars to the ceiling.

Gizacluethen · 06/02/2022 17:57

I am dying for a wee and yet I can't get up to go for one.

.... although that could just be that I have a cat.

I showered yesterday for the first time in too long only to be covered covered in sick within the hour.

TerribleTuna · 06/02/2022 17:59

AHH yes. I regularly am covered in someone else's saliva, vomit and or snot.

Every one of my tops has been used as a nose wiper at some point.
