Come and tell me your dull and unexciting news...

Anybody care to join?

I realised that it was the everyday stuff I missed most during lockdown. I really miss things being normal and dull and unexciting. Everyone in RL just talks covid covid covid all the bloody time. If it isn't covid it's recessions and A levels.

I bought a new flask. It's a 500ml Thermocafe and I love it. I take it into work and out into the garden.

I am also learning to do something called a "halo braid" in my hair. I am so bad at braiding it's unbelievable.

The cat hid a dead shrew in DH's slipper this morning.

I invite you all to top this parade of mediocrity.

I told DP it was blue bin week so he brought both up a flight of stairs (4 in a block) and realised everyone else in the street had their grey bin out so he'd to return them (back down flight of stairs) and bring the grey one up. He wasn't nearly as annoyed as I thought he would be.

@BringMeThatHorizon - Cheesy beans are superior to tuna anyway!

I felt really sick (pregnant) and cried on the phone to my parents. Then I had ginger squash and collected DS from nursery and felt fine again!

I forgot to post my mum's birthday card yesterday. I'm crap at posting cards.

I bought a new plant pot yesterday so I could plant my basil. My basil is still sitting waiting in a beaker of water with massive roots.

My cats need worming but I forgot to pick up tablets from the vet AGAIN

I’ve run out of fairy dishwasher tabs, need to order more on amazon

@FightMilkTM I'm so sorry, your post wasn't there when I wrote mine and it looks awful coming immediately after yours.

I hope you manage to get it fixed.

I've picked what colour I want to paint the bathroom.

I ordered edible glue today.

The filter light in my car came on today.

Next door have topped the tree that normally blocks our evening sun (let's hope it stops raining so I can bask in evening sunshine).

My toes are Norwegian!
Or maybe Egyptian I can’t decide.

DH has Roman toes! An international incident is ongoing. If I tell you that he's Catholic, I'm "from a Protestant background" and we live in NI, that may go some way to explaining the drama we're experiencing here. My toes are more Celtic than his, and I don't even know the Hail Mary.

Do you think you can have one foot one thing and one foot the other?

Spot light in kitchen is flickering it'll need replaced soon

Ds16 spent ages meticulously buttering his toast.. Then worried for his sweets unattended in his room ran off to check where dpuppy was..
Came back and ddog 1 had eaten his toast. Lots of expletives.
Ddog 1 showed no signs of remorse at all..
Have just caught him telling ddog 1 he hasn't forgiven her yet!!

Cheesy beans AND tuna.

Scrap I'm so pleased to hear about your tree. We gathered round a window and cheered when our neighbour did similar

I have a very very slow puncture on the rear left tyre of my car.

I tried got DD to try on her jeans and joggers today, inspired by another thread. NONE of them fit at all and most of her tshirts are belly tops now. Also her wellies for forest school are a size too small and I have a horrible feeling her waterproof won't fit either.

I started filling in my planner for the new school year AND coloured in my timetable. TBF, this is only dull and unexciting if you are not a teacher. If you are a teacher, you will know that colouring in your timetable is Very Important. Fact.

My wee Irish granny used to have a thing about feet
The devil can’t hide cloven hoofs, always look at a stranger’s feet

A neighbour who I'd never met stopped to talk to me while I was gardening and told me how down and lonely she was feeling. While I was shopping later I got her some flowers to cheer her up. She was shocked and delighted when I dropped them off. Made me feel good too

I planned Christmas presents today

I have Aboriginal toes.

I bought a new Brita water filter. It makes me very happy each time I use it. I didn’t realise how manky the old one was until I looked at my new o e.

I'm laid on the sofa listening to DH tut every time the bubbles get switched on in next doors hot tub. Exciting times.
