Plans for today (2025)

Chilling today after busy mother's day yesterday. I gave the 3 boys (under 12) $50 ea for samoa spending and I slipped Isla (15) an extra $50 as shes older. She txt me on her way home she would send me pics while away. They all leave Thursday.
Update: Harry's 7s rugby tournament.
30 teams entered. They made the final.
Beaten by 2 points when Harry's teammate head high a tackle. They converted and win by 2. They all played exceptional play. Harry scored 2 great tries.
All in all a great day.
The half ham was demolished. Enough for 2 Sammy's only.

Amen. They brought me flowers. They should have brought us dinner.

When I got back, the puppy had peed on the floor and the 2 year old had pulled dirt and pulled leaves off some of my houseplants, while they "adults" are all oblivious standing in the kitchen talking (except my husband who was seated), so instead of me focusing immediately on putting the groceries away and finishing cooking, I was cleaning up puppy puddles and corraling 2 children ages 2 and 5. And the puppy stepped on DHs hurt foot, then my nephew plopped his 1 year old's butt on the kitchen counter, so I had to disinfect that after they left. Glad I hadn't already vacuumed and mopped. Dinner at midnight now, but I skipped the champagne and went straight to the booze.

Should raised goats, but they'd be gently simmering on the stove right now.

A little thoughtless of them me thinks. I also dislike surprises. When Mr SSOAP went off to Brizzle on Saturday to meet the boys and go to a rugby match I wasn’t expecting to see him until the next day.

Instead just as I settled into the evening with a second glass of wine and a television programme they all appeared with specific food requests of pizza and the Eggs Benedict for breakfast.
I would have been so much happier to see them if it hadn’t been a surprise and involved me having to scramble so I get what you’re saying completely!

I’m curious what “booze’ means in American? Here it means all alcohol but I’m guessing over there as champagne doesn’t count as booze that it might mean spirits?
