Thunderstorms and no hubby.

19 March 2016


Hey Folks,

Well it is Saturday and I was thinking that I would get to have a nice carefree Saturday........that sounds funnier written down then when I was saying it in my head!!!!!! My Saturday will consist of the following things - doing the mountain of washing ( will almost need a oxygen tank and some climbing boots to get over it), you see I stupidly thought that Tuesday would be my day off.  Yep I know I get the day off of work and I am still expected to do the stuff at home talk about being not bloody funny, so I did have the day off and well lets just say it went as well as a pair of new lead boots in a swimming pool - I digress so I have to do all of the washing today and yep today is the day we get a thunderstorm and it means I will be putting clothes in the dryer, why couldn't it rain on Tuesday after I had washed the car - they did forecast it, I swear the people that are in the Met department throw a dart at a board and say yep that is the weather for today and then piss themselves laughing as we all scramble to get stuff done and it doesn't rain.  In all fairness they did mange to get it right today and I did have a bit of fore warning - there were black clouds in the sky and I did hear thunder.

So this is what I have to achieve today - get the washing done, clean both bathrooms and toilets, pack the caravan up for our holiday, go and get the present for tomorrows party - Miss 10 is going to a birthday party, make sure the kids scout uniforms and mine are ready for the hike tomorrow, get the ironing done and the dusting.
So far I have managed to have a cup of coffee and look outside at the clouds, the rain and wish I had a maid so that I didn't have to do housework.

As I mentioned in the title Hubby is away and the worst part of that is this trip seems to be on a weekend when we have a shit load of stuff happening.  Last night was a school disco, busy as today and tomorrow and I have to deal with the kids on my own, yes I know they are my kids and I do love them to death but you know what they drive me bat crap crazy some days - I am sure they figure out how to push me so close to the edge without actually going over it.  It is all a ploy to get me to let them watch TV so that I get peace and I have to admit most of the time it works.
But today I am going to be strong and not weaken...............that is even funnier than a carefree Saturday, I think I might try doing stand up!!!!!!!!
So while he is away doing whatever it is that he does I am here doing battle with two kids, a thunderstorm, scout uniforms, birthday present and my addiction to coffee and chocolate - I have recently discovered the addiction to chocolate and from the research that I have done I have a feeling that I am well on my way to becoming a chocaholic, so I am going to leave you now so I can go and have another coffee, scale the mountain of washing that needs to be done an with this thought of the day - Chocolate shrinks your clothes.
