Which room first?

Kitchen, Kettle on quick visit to the smallest room

If sunny day like today then straight into conservatory.
If its wet and cold or night time then kettle on and into a cosy sitting room with the fire on.
Ditto with guests.

After a shopping expedition its usually straight upstairs with the evidence bags,
minimise DH heart going all of a flutter

However today I have just made a detour to the utility to empty and reload washing machine before settling down in the conservatory with and GN on pad.

Both my sons, all 3 sons in law and both DH's brothers go in to the loo first.

Luckily, it's right by the front door or I'd worry for my carpets!!

Well if DS is home it's in the side door as it will be unlocked, through the lobby to the kitchen (which is a fair size but not enough room for a table) then into the dining end of the through room which runs the width of the back of the house, dumping keys, bag, coat and anything else on the dining table through to the lounge end and flop !
If no one home, in the front door, deposit everything in the hall and then flop in the lounge.
Any visitors would be shown to the lounge.

Definitely kitchen, fortunately ours is big enough for a table and 4 chairs.

Mr P and I don't even bother to go through to the sitting room until around 7.30 pm

I always go to the kitchen and put the kettle on (have been called a 'tea belly'!) but I generally go to the sitting room and this is where most guests go.
Before I downsized I would have sat in the sunny kitchen as it was big enough to take a table and three chairs - I really miss that kitchen.

I park near the back door, so come straight into the kitchen and fill the kettle. It's an end terrace so the only front entrance is directly into the sitting room. Most guests come in that way, unless they are very good friends in which case they are allowed into the back room which is my nesting place!

I hover in the hall and deposit any clutter I've brought in with me at the appropriate door or foot of the stairs. Outer garments off in the cloakroom and usually end up in the kitchen for the irresistible and all too regular coffee. Always lovely to be home. Long trip, short trip, whatever.......

We have a 3-up 3-down semi (typical victorian street) and you have to go through the back reception to get to the kitchen. I have a couple of easy chairs in there as well as the table and chairs, and that's where I take everyone in spite of having a nice sitting room at the front :D

My first stop is to run upstairs to the bathroom! Then the kitchen to put the kettle on!

Kitchen >> switch on kettle >> utility to hang up coat/leave shoes >> bedroom to change into leggings n cami (yes, even in winter I prefer to keep cool)
If it's late afternoon when I get home then pjs, which are usually cami + cotton bottoms with stretchy cuffs a bit like narrow harem pants.
The kitchen is the hub, faces East and sitting-room faces West so I move with the sun.

GabriellaG are you actually in the grandma age group or are you an "imposter"? I thought it was young mums who lived half the day in their PJs or lounge suits? :D

To put kettle on in kitchen then put my feet up in the living room. Definitely not the bedroom which is usually freezing cold as DH refuses to have radiators on upstairs and usually has windows open! Also take visitors to living room though there are some close friends who follow us into the kirchen when makin g coffee/tea and plonk themselves at the table. I'm always aware of (clean) washig up on draining board and crumbs on the floor if Ive not swept it recently so prefer to take them into the sunny living room which is usually pretty tidy.

Kitchen too small to swing a cat.... So mostly gets ignored. Also it reminds me of the thing I hate most doing.....cooking!! Arrrgh!! So straight to my room ( bedroom) no dressing table for me but stacks and stacks of books! Dive in! I read ( now retired) at least three hours a day and the bedroom is where I do it. Tv permanently on sports channels.... can't stand much programming anyway... so cuppa and a book! Or the snug which has a swishy sofa and a good reading light... downside us I can still SEE the kitchen from there and it keeps reminding ding me that there will be no dinner or lunch unless I cook it!! A useless hubby see!

Maggiemaybe It has to be me and my first port of call would be the downstairs loo.I could never get upstairs to bathroom quick enough, and fortunately is just inside the rear entrance to my house where, being too lazy to put it in the garage, I park my car.

That would be me, Maggiemaybe ?

Haha...I wish. I'm a 73 yr old mum of 5 with 9 GC and 3 GGC.
I like being the age I am but I'd willingly do all the young mum part all over again.

Loo, kettle then sitting room with as do our closest friends.

I was just going to say that, Kittye. It's always the first place I head for when I get home.

First port of call is the loo.

I come into the kitchen, take off my outdoors shoes, switch the kettle on and the down to my bedroom to take off my coat and put shoes away, then finish off in my lovely sunny lounge with my cuppa. I have room to sit in my kitchen as it is long and thin, seventeen foot by 10 foot, but I prefer the lounge as it is always sunny being lit by 2 very large windows, sadly no view and no conservatory!

Straight into the sitting room to sit by the log burner. Shopping is usually dropped off in the hallway until either OH sorts or I can pluck up the energy to do.

The bathroom. The cold always makes me need to go.

I go straight to open the French doors shouting "wee wees! Wee wees!" at the dogs so we don't have any accidents after they've been left indoors- it must give the neighbours a laugh! ?

Living room as the kitchen is far too small and the living room is large and bright
