Watching The Terminator with my kids. They are loving all the 80's SFX. 🤣
It's my last day of annual leave. Eldest decided he'd like to watch Full Metal Jacket. Feel like I need extra holiday to recover!
It's totally OK to buy makeup specifically for a holiday, right? Asking for a friend...

For anyone in South Oxfordshire area.
We are looking for a Data Manager to join our existing team @DidcotGirls. The position starts from September. Do share with anyone who may be interested and get in touch with me if you'd like to know more. didcotgirls.oxon.sch.uk/4631… #schools #vacancies #data
Going to see Supergrass tonight. Excited but also nervous about being with so many other people. Can't even pretend it's because of Covid!
Test and Trace must be seriously behind. I tested positive on Tuesday by LFD. I had a pcr on Wednesday and only just got my results back. Same with my son. Everyone that needs to know already knows. Nothing is going to be contained if they're this overwhelmed though.
Could 2 followers please copy & re-post this tweet? We’re trying to demonstrate that someone is always listening. Call 116 123 (Samaritans United Kingdom & Ireland) Just two. Any two. Copy, not retweet. @samaritans
I'm binge watching Christmas decorate with me videos. I should get off the sofa and do my own cleaning and decorating. Not quite so appealing as staying put though.
We are looking to expand our exam invigilator team at @DidcotGirls. If you are interested, do get in touch. didcotgirls.oxon.sch.uk/4146…
I'm having a pina colada because...why the hell not! Husband has finally caved and put the heating on too.
Once again I am failing to relax and suspect I am going to end up painting the under stairs cupboard I cleaned up yesterday. Happy half term!!
I have accidentally taken an extended lunch break from painting the walls. I felt guilty until I remembered that I did the washing up, put on some washing, rescued clothes from the line as it's started raining and coached my son on some mock exam prep.

I'm not sure that decorating 2 rooms with a child isolating from the rest of us was my best idea. She has made a very cute den in the conservatory which is very sweet.
Just so you know, I'm not one of those people who enjoys cleaning. It usually makes me moody. I'm just taking a break whilst I decide if I'm going to do battle with the under stairs cupboard or whether that would absolutely ruin my Sunday!
I picked a 'cleaning motivation' playlist from Amazon music and have been treated to NKOTB, Bros and Backstreet Boys. Are we assuming that only women in their 40s are doing the cleaning?! 🤨 #offended
I've had one of those days where I can't decide if it's been productive or not. I've not read any more of my book, nor have I managed to pick a print. But I have bought new bedding, been inspired to revamp the under stairs cupboard and had a lovely trip to the shops.
Having a lovely afternoon listening to records and reading. Bliss! #vinyl #realbooks
My family are all out at the cinema and I've decided to watch Married at Frist Sight. I bet I don't get past the first episode!
Can someone please freeze time as I'm absolutely not ready for tomorrow! Thank you, please.
