That’s how I’ll be spending my day

Sorry no lie ins.

All i can offer you is an early night and possibly a late afternoon nap.

Enjoy the festival!

Still in bed

MORNING!

No lie in here. Can’t remember the last time I did, what with cats and a small child

Anyway today : take Jimbo for a haircut, run some errands, then DISSONANCE RADIO LAUNCH DAY :rotating_light::rotating_light::rotating_light:

I’m sure there’ll be another thread all about it, but I’ll be on at 3 with two special DiS guests. Big thanks to @TVDenimChap for all the hard work he’s put in getting us to this point

Kiddo took 3 frustrating hours to get to sleep last night. Feel weirdly rested though.

It’s raining so maybe it’s a museum day.

Morning everyone!

Kids got us up nice and early. Doing a spot of tidying and then launching a radio station with some dis pals innit

I am awake but still in bed. Does this count as a lie in @Malva ?

Might send you a voice note

I remember those nights. Sometimes he’d fall asleep in the car, so we’d try going for a drive to get him off, then end up driving about thirty miles still without any joy. :baby:t2::zzz:

Doing pretend cooking in the silly toddler’s kitchen. The dish we’re making sounds horrifying.

Hmm, I’m sorry but you have to get up.

(I’m also still in bed but hypocrisy is a vital part of leadership)

Voicenotes welcomed at all times. Please ask the silkworms to send me one too - they’ve got my number.

Mrs W: ‘Can you close the blind a little bit please? The sun is reflecting off your head and blinding me.’

Off to Newcastle tomorrow, to take my grandma out for her 94th birthday - so today is mainly running around organising stuff (cat to cattery, dog to friends, maybe a little pub garden stop at some point).

Morning all!

Wor Lass has already left to meet her friends for breakfast in Edinburgh so I’m Lead Parent until tomorrow afternoon.

I had some food and drinks with colleagues last night I’m a touch on the hungover side but nothing serious. I didn’t technically get a lie in @Malva but The Child was kind enough to sleep until 7.30.

We’re probably taking The Child’s annoying friend to drama this morning and then attending her birthday party afterwards. If I’m honest, I’m a bit miffed for a number of reasons but mainly because I’m having to miss my writing class to facilitate all of it. After that I’ve promised a quiet afternoon of tablet videos and a film.

I might get a chance to do some Dissonance at some point.

Happy Saturday everyone!

Going into that London for FiL’s 60th bash. Some of my fam are heading in, booked a hotel, should be nice. Been an absolute shitter of a month work wise but it’s come to an ok conclusion so looking forward to not feeling utterly wound up and being with my guys.

Nice weather, might see if we can take the kids somewhere that isn’t 100% jubbly before the festivities

Morning

Legs are absolutely fucked from running up and down stairs moving shit around all day yesterday.

Jobs for today - tidy/mow the bit of grass that’s kind of a front lawn; pressure wash the patio and decking; maybe go and get some stuff to paint/treat the decking. Anything else that means I can avoid doing decorating inside the house.

Tired. Got woken up at 1 by my daughter crying pretty upset. Go to put her back to bed and give her a hug and notice her hair is wet. Turn the light on to discover she’d vommed, quite badly, on her bed, getting it all in her hair. Has to do an emergency bath, fully change the bed including finding the spare single duvet.

No plans today. Wish I had the cash for wide awake.

Got a day party today for a friends birthday. Need to do a run and get my nails done before then.

Normally I would lay in bed til 12 on a Saturday but I will get up.

I’m in bed, but I’m not 100% on how we as a community define a ‘lie-in’. Not trying to be controversial, but have we got it written down somewhere?

Was past 12 when i went to bed, then got up at 330 to let the dog out so that he wouldn’t shit all over the kitchen as he’s eaten something that disagreed with him

Didn’t get back to sleep till 6, and been drifting since then. Doesn’t feel like a lie in, more a recuperation of what was previously lost. Hence needing clarity on whether this is a lie in!

Currently listening to Sam Fender and thinking about what 3 11 y olds are going to want for breakfast.
