To lie to my DH about this

[Tiredasamf]

Lighthearted post

DD has just started a new dance class. It’s drop off, but I told my DH I have to stay.. so I’m currently sat in the car with a coffee enjoying an hour of peace! And I plan to do this each week

we have 2 teething babies so I’m getting 4-5 hours sleep max a night, so I feel this hour alone is well deserved

we’ve gotta do what we’ve gotta do to catch a break eh?!

what cheeky things have you done to get a break from the kids?

Enjoy.

My oh thinks I'm in the viewing tower of gymnastics every week, there's a curtain so daughter can't see if I'm there or not, and I sit in the car and have peace 😆

I arrange a click and collect order. I have 2-3 blissful hours in a cafe or in the car reading until I collect it.

Stayed at work past bed time

I didn't lie about it though, he knew I did it lol.

I wouldn't lie because the child would grass me up 🤣 I'd do it but tell him!

Not me but I have just discovered that when DW goes to get the Friday pizzas and says she ends up waiting cos of the queue she actually puts the order in for 30 mins time and nips to the pub next door for a cheeky half!
been doing it for years apparently…
cheeky mare.
she’s lucky I love her.

@Michellebops love this!! I can see the class from here so if DD says anything I can say I was there 🤣

@TheCatterall genius. I’m definitely trying that one

Technically you are. Oh the bliss 😝

I took up running and got an allotment to give me good excuses for time alone.

You shouldn't have to lie to your husband to get an hour to yourself.

Surely your husband wouldn't begrudge you an hour of peace. Besides not much point going home and back again within an hour.

@CheezePleeze @HanSB

of course he wouldn’t, I said this was a lighthearted post!

Sometimes I say I am
going upstairs to get something and I just lie on the bed surfing the Internet on my phone for 20 mins or as long as I can before he texts me saying “I know you’re hiding” and I have to come down again 😆
