Friday night
After work most people have a Prosecco now.
A takeaway.
A scented bubble bath with avocado candles
A Netflix binge with exotic beers and parsnip crisps
Sex in front of the fire
Korean noodles
Hot sugary tea
An Indian head massage
What do I do ?
A lie down with no socks
And a well trained bulldog licking every inch of my feet
Bloody lovely
Ps this blissful scene was turned on it’s head minutes before bed as when I moved all the dogs to get off the couch the resulting growls of upset caused a fight between Mary and Dorothy
Resulting in the damage of the above tv……..
Sigh
Yin and Yang. One minute up, the next.......oh shit!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love a foot massage although I've never had my feet licked :) I can imagine it being so relaxing for you after a long day at work though. So I would have to make do with collapsing on the couch with a cuppa and a book to read.
ReplyDeleteSorry the tv was damaged. The dogs are just like children.
You could hire Dorothy out for foot nibbling purposes - a bit like the craze for those little fish!
ReplyDeleteI hope the TV damage isn't too severe and the shifts aren't too arduous. xx
Oh dear. Bloody kids. I hope it still works.
ReplyDeleteParsnip crisps? Surely turnip crisps? - Ed
ReplyDeleteKale crisps?
DeleteFoot licking sounds OK to me....shame about the TV though! Of the other options I would only really like the head massage.
ReplyDelete(I used to have a Yorkie who liked to lick)
The buggers - Dogs ! who'd have them x
ReplyDeleteBuggers? They're dogs flis, not men.
DeleteYou have been on your feet too long at work? She does love looking after your feet!!
ReplyDeleteHope the TV still works
I don't do any of the things on your Friday night list! I just eat my dinner and fall asleep watching the 10 o' clock news! I hope your TV is working after all the mayhem.
ReplyDeleteSimone I have sent you an e mail via your blog (hope this is OK John ).
DeleteThanks John.
DeleteHad to be something to shatter the scene, didn't there?
ReplyDeleteWell dang, no good deed goes unpunished. I agree with Raybeard, yin and yang. Dogs and their drama, oye.
ReplyDeleteIs that really what most people do Friday night after work? If so, I'm really glad I'm not working.
ReplyDeleteThe Wheel of Fortune, always turning!
ReplyDeleteKids will be kids
ReplyDeleteWell feet will be feet and dogs will be dogs - that'sall I can think of to say x
ReplyDeleteI am all about the quiet bliss, minus the dogs and the damage.
ReplyDeleteSex in front of the fire can result in burnt buttocks and heat blisters. Safer to have a cup of tea and a "Hob Nob".
ReplyDeleteAs Roseanne Roseannadanna's father used to say, "It's always something!". Sorry about the TV. Hope it's fixable.
ReplyDeleteWishing you well as those shifts continue.
Hugs!
I don't do any of those things on a Friday night and didn't when I was working. A cup of tea and a book is my evenings. It sounds like Friday evenings have got very expensive!
ReplyDeleteA handy hint for moving dogs off the sofa - before moving your legs or anything else proclaim loudly "Come on, off now dogs" this works better than just moving them without warning.
My hubby gives them three gentle taps with a finger to tell them he's getting up. I just don't move until they do, unless my bladder is bursting. :D Tina in west oz.
DeleteWill you need a new TV? Sorry to hear.
ReplyDeleteI love a good foot rub, 3 dogs that do the job!
ReplyDeleteOne minute everything is love and bliss and the next a fight to end the night. Add to that a damaged TV. What is getting in to the fur kids?
ReplyDeleteBummer on the TV getting damaged. Hope it's not a complete bust.
ReplyDeleteJust the sky leads ripped out and need replacing
DeleteMy mum had a Yorkshire terrier that did this, it could get right between the toes, excruciating!!
ReplyDeleteThose dogs lead you a merry chase, don't they? On the flip side, they are particularly devoted to the leader of the pack. (That be you...)
ReplyDeleteThe thought of a dog licking my feet is very repulsive to me, but whatever floats your boat!
ReplyDeleteBlimey John, you've removed my previous post on this thread? Baffled! Ho hum...
ReplyDeleteBy accident I assure you fat fingers and small moderation buttons next to delete button xx
DeleteX
DeleteI vote for the tea, but I will pass on the sugar.
ReplyDeleteNow I realize how boring my friday nights are. Supper, wash a small child, read him books and get him to bed. Then hubby and I usually watch one show of whatever series we're watching and then he goes off to bed. No sex, no hot bath, no alcohol, just me and a book, or the computer. WTF. At least you got your feet licked:)
