Swagger Inn 153: New Year Resolutions: restrict --perving-- HBF appreciation to days including a 'y'

[SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp]

I think I can keep to that one...
Here's my starter for 10.
I have thoughtfully arranged arranged them in order of FAF Debate ad discuss

Watching Something's gotta give, don't understand why she's falling for Jack Nicholson when Keanu Reeves got a thing for her

Oh, they're kissing

Noooooooo! Stay with Keanu you moron!!!!!

Ah Keanu. So lovely 😊

I’m reading an actual book! Trojan Gold by Elizabeth Peters. Murder mystery type thing with an art history vibe. Am whizzing through it.

I walked out of the cinema during that film!

I've been re watching deadwood. Love it. Wish they'd made more series.

Ds2 is still being a pain. We have loads of errands to run tomorrow... That'll be fun 😣😯

Grrr

Perhaps he’ll be in a completely different mood tomorrow Badderz? And perhaps I will actually wake up with the Batch, Santi, Aidan, Paella, and a few others tomorrow morning in a luxurious, secluded hotel.

We’re going to watch the final episode of Hard Sun. If DS1 ever comes downstairs that is.

I am being boring and going to the hayloft catch up on my missed lie-in. Athos is obliged welcome to join me...

As requested

So Batch, Santi, Aidan for starters...

Have watched Hard Sun final episode - ooooooooo

I really liked hard sun

Aiden...mmmmmm

Sigh. Need to get up

Morning wenches.

Usual Sunday shenanigans here - washing, ironing, homework - with the added thrill of a visit to Aldi when I drop DS1 off, and then the ILs round for dinner.

First though, as soon as DS2 is off the Wii, I’m going to watch some tennis. If the final hasn’t finished before that happens.

Off to wickes and next
(Scintilates)
Laters x

Careful when you’re fondling the wood in Wickes Badderz

Wooohooooooooooo for the tennis!!!!!

I love the umpire’s chair at the Australian Open. They don’t use steps to get up and down, the chair slides up and down the stand. I’d be alternating between whirring up and down in the chair, and telling the crowd to shut the fuck up when they’re making noise when the players are ready

at Stair Life umpires chair (missed the final, most mostly asleep.)

DS has been watching Dr Strange.

Nothing else to report...

We've had to buy a new loo seat

And some wall paper samples

And carpet samples

And a new light

Afternoon all.

Bads I read that as off to wickeds and wondered when that had been arranged.

We watched Hard Sun ep 4 last night. I'm not sure whether it's brilliant and will all come together at the end or whether it's all bollocks. I'm veering towards the latter.

McMafia tonight, and the burning question is 'will Alex take his shirt off?'

I wish 😔

Oh I've given up on mcmafia
Even JN couldn't make me watch it

I think Hard Sun picked up towards the end Apricot —although you may want to make sure you’ve got a cushion to hand to hide behind—

We’re persevering with McMafia —because JN with his shirt off—, although we are a week behind. We’ve (me, DH and DS1) only got that, Lucifer, and NCIS that we watch together after DS2’s in bed.

Which room are you decorating Badderz?

Supposed to be helping DH get stuff ready for the ILs coming round.

Our bedroom
It's the only room we haven't done...also making a few changes in the living room (new sofa covers etc)

The floral one is for the bedroom bedstead wall
The blue one is for the landing wall at the top of the stairs

I like both those papers, I particularly love the floral one

Think I’ll do some decorating of my own

Oh, I like the floral one (FFS, it took me three attempts to type 'floral' without a typo. And then two three four more corrections to remove other typos in the sentence...) Not so keen on the other one - it reminds me of Orla Kiely, and it's nice enough but I'm not a massive fan.

I have mostly been out in the garden, attacking the weeds as ever. Tomorrow I really must pick up the piles of discarded weeds an do something with them, not level them to rot in the meadow lawn.

Those are very inspirational decorations LetUs, let me see if I can add to them...

Evening wenches.

I did that too Apes and I was so happy for about two seconds

Kind of a crappy day, didn't sleep well, lots of negative energy in my life atm that's affecting me.

Loving the decorations Helen

What’s up Wicked?

ILs are here for dinner. They are very lovely but I have stuff to be doing.
