I'm currently in the bath enjoying my new bubble bath 🛀

Dh and dd doing crafts downstairs before bedtime.

Dh and I will probably watch a film later and carry on eating!

Watching call the midwife with the mil and planning an early snooze after

StormBaby · 25/12/2021 20:27

DH is watching James Bond 😴 I’m drinking wine and eating Pringles. Teens are all upstairs. It’s actually glorious

Largethighsbadeyes · 25/12/2021 20:30

I've been awake since 4am so it looks like too much wine and an early night

MelonTits · 25/12/2021 20:30

Toddler DS in bed (half an hour later than usual)
DM and DF waved off home with a bag of leftovers
Cheese & biscuits, a cuppa, chocolate and whatever on TV, or will have a look at a new book later
DH off to have a bit of time with a new game & then we’ll play another new game together later

Sounds lovely OP, that's my plan in a few days time once I get home to my bath, staying with relatives with only a shower atm.

Nana's gone to bed after one too many Bailey's, Granddad's playing chess with Great grandaughter, 4 year old is lying on the sofa with a tummy ache having eaten primarily chocolate and cocktail sausages all day. I've just finished cleaning the kitchen and putting things in the recycling. I feel really happy and chilled out. So so grateful to be spending Christmas with my grandparents in their 90's who are still sprightly and well.

Call the midwife then Vision Quest, lovely.

Starcaller · 25/12/2021 20:33

We are in bed watching the Witcher and eating chocolate Grin DD was out like a light earlier.

Lovelydiscusfish · 25/12/2021 20:35

My fella has gone upstairs to listen to the radio and get a bit of peace. Dd and I are watching Coronation street, having eaten too many sweets. We don’t even watch it normally but she seems absolutely absorbed - I am mainly twatting around on social media. The dog is now asleep and looking as if butter wouldn’t melt, having been an absolute twat all day.

Lovely but I am VERY tired…..

biggirlknickers · 25/12/2021 20:37

Cheese and mumsnet. Bliss.

ThirdElephant · 25/12/2021 20:43

Kids just in bed. Now contemplating what to do with all the toys in the living room whilst snacking on Christmas-fridge tapas.

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 25/12/2021 20:46

Wine. Cheese. Michael Palin on iplayer. No complaints here 😉

IggyAce · 25/12/2021 20:50

I’m watching tv with a glass of wine and will probably get some nibbles. Teen is in their room, ds & dh are building Lego.

CoverYourselfInChocolateGlory · 25/12/2021 20:54

Just watched Strictly Special with DD. DH has cleaned the kitchen (legend). No more visitors here so we're just taking it very easy and I won't be in bed late! I might sleep in the spare room with DD as DH wants to stay up to watch some of the cricket. I've worked incredibly hard to make Christmas special and fun as we've had a lot of upheaval and bereavement this year. We've had a lovely time and I'm very happy now the pressure's off, so I'm just going to chill.

slavetothekittens · 25/12/2021 20:56

Radio on and I'm playing with the cats. They'll want supper soon then I'll have a snack and a drink and go to bed. Nice chilled evening.

Hiphopboppertybop99 · 25/12/2021 20:56

Kids just gone to bed, DP is working... Im in my PJs currently trying to find something to watch on TV. Will have a cuppa and some more chocs. I'm very tired so will probably end up nodding off. Been a lovely day though

delilahbucket · 25/12/2021 20:56

DS going off to his room, kitchen is now clean and tidy, still have to eat dessert, but drinking the last of the champagne in the interim and reading rubbish on the internet 😂. Suspect DH is doing the same next to me 😂

AnnieAreYouOkHun · 25/12/2021 20:57

Me and dh watching Corrie whilst deciding what to eat next.

Pegasussnail · 25/12/2021 20:59

Awake since dc woke us at 3.30!! But we managed to get a bit of broken sleep.
Watching call the Midwife. Dc have just gone to bed saying it was the best day of their lives. Sweethearts. We will watch something lighthearted soon.

Thatsplentyjack · 25/12/2021 21:03

Came back from my mums, baby dd went to bed, both ds's disappeared to play with their new gadgets. Poor doggy was a nervous wreck at my mums because the kids did a couple of Crackers (he was so wound up he jumped in the bath. He called down and went to bed when we got home. Dp and I watching Christmas bake of having a couple of drinks before heading to bed in about 10 mins.
Merry Christmas everyone!

ChocolateCakeYum · 25/12/2021 21:08

Sitting in a food coma watching crap on the tv.

Nc123 · 25/12/2021 21:08

Chocolate, Poetry for Neanderthals game (which quickly degenerated into me and DH giggling and hitting each other with the inflatable club), bit of Christmas tv. All good!

Mogloveseggs · 25/12/2021 21:10

Dd gone to boyfriends. Me Dh and Ds watching top gear and have been playing battleships then dobble. Maybe will watch ghosts before bed.

Titsywoo · 25/12/2021 21:11

doitwithlove · 25/12/2021 21:11

EventOfTheSeason · 25/12/2021 21:13

Browsing stuff and listening to music, I'm so tired but it's been so nice today I don't want to go to bed yet. Dh is gaming with his bestie who has been on his own today.
