  1. I’ve got up early to watch the remainder of the Daytona 24hrs!

  2. It’s shaping up to being a rainy Sunday. Have some deep cleaning to do today. De-fur the kettle and wipe down the top of the kitchen cabinets sort of thing. Have to make a decision about dinner (make some effort or let things drift into frozen-pizzaville.)

    The second week of not-drinking is OK. Sleeping better. Feeling better. Tomorrow is recycling day. And, for some reason, my glass bin has only an empty peanut butter jar in it. I wonder if the bin-men will notice? (*Probably not. Well, yes, they might notice. But definitely don’t care. They’ve seen it all. Can we still call them “bin-men”?*)

  3. Work and more work, nearly at the 31st of January self assessment deadline.

  5. Well the oldest kid is poorly, and we were up and down all night seeing to him and getting little blasts of sleep, right up until the younger one woke up at about 20 to 6, so I’m downstairs with him while the rest of the house is asleep. It’s gonna piss it down today so I’m gonna recommend lazy Sunday mode

  6. Been up since 4, sleeping in the sofa currently as I have been painting my bedroom, hoping to finish that today so I can get back into my bed

  7. Up since half 5. Listening to my partner snore. I’ll weirdly miss it when she goes home tonight 😂

  9. Guess I’ve gotta go do jiujitsu with my friends. The struggle cuddle we call it. Gonna be cold!

  11. I started using my weighted blanket for bed again this week and I’ve been having 1-2+ hours of deep sleep a night since. Absolute game changer.

    Drinking a cup of tea in bed before starting some house DIY. Both cats have opened the bakery together and are furiously making biscuits on the bed blankets.

  12. Spent the night in a Premier Inn having seen my mum-in-law yesterday. Visiting my own parents today, then driving home (~4 hours, not very far) no doubt reeling from the second onslaught of food.

    We’re in our 50s. Doesn’t matter how old we are, the mums still want to feed us.

  13. Since my Gran has been out of hospital (November), her dementia has worsened and she’s back in a hospital bed in the living room. My Mum’s been a trooper and been sleeping on the sofa every night since then but being as stubborn as she is, she never lets anyone else take a turn… until last night.

    End result? We definitely need a new sofa. I felt like a contortionist on it last night. I did get some sleep but my back and knees are shot. I’m gonna need a siesta at some point too otherwise i’m going to be flagging later in the day.

  14. Best friend is over later, so I am going to investigate the kitchen and throw together pasta and summat for later. Probably just macaroni and cheese with bacon or tomato based pasta bake, I would say it is because he has an unadventurous palate, but it is mostly because I want comfort food, leftovers, and can’t be bothered to start hiding vegetables or thinking too much. I will do some garlic bread because double carbs is the definition of comfort food.

    I shall have to step outside at some point to see if there is anything I need to tidy up after the last storm before the next storm comes through. The recycling goes out tomorrow night, I envisage a tidal wave of pop bottles engulfing the estate on Tuesday morning.

  15. Household chores, spend some quality time playing with the dog. 30 mins on the spin bike. Watch tv.

  16. I’m sutterly making enough noise to wake up the wife so she goes for her run early and is back in time to take a son to football so I can go out for a bike ride before the rain comes after lunch.

  17. Off to Makro to get some bulk supplies, then probably deciding between roasting a chicken or making a batch of cordials (I’m low on grape, cherry and sarsaparilla). If I get time, I may do both.

    Also found out Solovair have a factory ‘reject’ shop where you can get some of their shoes & boots for up to half price, so I ordered a pair of their black sneakers as I need a sturdy, but casual pair of shoes that should last me a while.

    Edit: spelling

  18. Wife’s getting up to let animals out in a few minutes, then she’s off to get her mum over for Sunday lunch here. I have no plans for outside work (smallholding) as it’s raining soon so I’ll probably be making a card for my wife’s birthday soon. Then maybe look for a new house as we had a leaflet through the door last night telling us they’ve put planning permission in for a solar farm on the fields to the north of us.

  19. Coffee in bed at the mo, cuddling the hound.

    Later it’ll be food shop, dog walks and working on an essay. It’s meant to be pissing it down all day so I’m not wildly inspired to go out.

  20. My husband and kids are away and I got in at 4am so I’m going to have a big fry up, cup of tea, biscuits and go to bed with my make up on and my dress on still lol

  21. Lying here unhappily because both of our kids were awake like whack-a-moles last night. Taking the oldest to rugby then DECIDING on a new car, we need one, then a deep clean because estate agent coming tomorrow to hopefully sell our house. Nothing like doing all the big changes at the same time 

  22. Currently in the bath soaking off the crusts. Fingers crossed the rain washes the salt off the garden. That was disturbing, seeing it rain seawater on the Northumberland coast with a southwesterly blowing.

    The rest of the day is vacant unless the kids invite me for dinner.

  23. Going to have McD’s breakfast and then donate blood (the brekkie is my donation day treat). May even get a slice of cake from the dessert place next door on the way home too…

  24. Was at the Gym for 6.30 this morning, Now eating breakfast.. Probably going to take the dog for a really long walk, Then go for Sunday lunch with my daughter at a village pub down the road

  26. Need to do the weekly clear out of our fridge: use all the salvageable for this week’s lunch meal prep, freeze some, and throw out the rest.

    But I’m still in bed, and I don’t want to get up. 😭

  27. Spend all day dreading the course I’m going on tomorrow.

  28. I have COVID so have been in bed for the last few days. It’s kinda lucky really because I can’t afford to buy food atm but I don’t have an appetite anyway so yay me I guess.
