Stupid people

 


So my blog this week was going to be about all the stupid things that people do. For example, I like to watch Four in a Bed (in case you live on the moon - it's a show about 4 b&b owners staying in each others properties in competition with each other) and they frequently say stupid things such as 'There was no marmalade at breakfast' to which I shout at the TV (in unison with hubby) 'You should have bloody asked for some!'. Or sometimes 'the room was too hot', to which we shout 'Turn the bloody radiator down'. You see? Stupid! But this is where I will stop as I've realised that the rest of the things on my list might offend you (completely unintentionally obviously). Ok, I shall give you one example so you know what I mean. (Please don't be upset if you do this stupid thing). Queue at the fuel pumps waiting for a pump on the right hand side when there are pumps free on the left! The pump is miraculously designed so that the hose will reach both sides of the car! Why do people/you do that?! Anyway that's the last I speak of it! Sorry to rant! 

I actually hate and detest the word stupid! I find it incredibly rude (I feel I need to apologise to you again for being so rude). I once (about 20 years ago) walked out on a job because my boss called me stupid. She then failed to pay me outstanding holiday pay (a whole 4 hours - which, 20 years ago, must have been about £20!) so I took her to a tribunal. Long story short, she lied about the whole situation (which was obvious to everyone listening) and they awarded me £1500!! Bonus! Silly lady! Or maybe I should say stupid woman!! Eh, that'll stick it to her! 

So my photo this week? This was the mess I came down to one morning after hubby (who was working nightshift) discovered one of the cats (definitely Bumblebee) had pee'd against the sideboard! It dripped into the drawers and cupboards so my lovely husband got everything out, cleaned it all and the carpet and left it to dry. It's still a mess I might add but I have been busy working my 2 jobs lol. Maybe I'll sort it on my day off. 

Believe that success is your only option.

Alternative resolutions

Image
  So this year, instead of the usual resolutions - lose weight, exercise more, drink water, drink less alcohol etc that fail in just a few days, I've decided to make resolutions for all the lovely people in my life!  Hubby - 2022 is the Year he wants to be more romantic. Though this is news to him. Romance is a foreign language and he has no clue. However, he does do Google! So I suggest he tries asking "Ok Google? How do I do romance?" I'm confident she can help him. Daughter - this is easy. She just needs to remember that one day she will be me!  Son - I know he can do full sentences so his resolution is to message with more than just fine/ok/good/I guess/no/yes. Also, he needs to be better at replying to messages in a timely manner and not wait all day! Libby - she's already doing a fab job of staying alive but I think it's time she didn't just stare at me when she wants a treat. Libby just ask!  The cats - only wee and poo in the litter tray if you...

Home bird

  Ellie and I were invited to a charity ball last weekend by my work. The big boss bought the tickets which was great. A young 23 year old lad was raising money for a cancer charity - being 5 years in remission himself. It was a chance to get dressed up and have a nice meal with a few drinks. Ellie bumped into my sister in law on the dance floor though her aunt didn't recognise her. Now I'm not saying that Ellie scrubs up well but... We managed to stay until 11pm (I'm sure Ellie could have gone the distance) much to the shock of my sister in law (they got home past 2am I believe). It may not be a surprise to you guys but I realised how much of a home bird I am. I struggle to go out at all, my first reaction would always be to decline an offer. I'm sensible enough to know that never going out would be unhealthy and I always try to ignore any anxiety and just do it anyway! But it is hard for me. I don't mean going out during the day, shopping or out for coffee or lunc...

A storm

Image
  If you're expecting a quick repartee I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you. My funny bone is wearing a plaster-cast. My Eeyore cloud has turned into a storm. I've not been coping so well. My house is like a mental asylum. My daughter is doing great but my son is struggling. Even Libby came into our bedroom at 3am Wednesday morning having an anxiety attack! It was one of the alarm sensors beeping due to a low battery. She doesn't like strange noises, and I was panicked because I didn't know what was wrong with her, and obviously any strange behaviour is worrying, incase it's a step closer to her demise. I can't say too much about Isaac, as that wouldn't be fair but I can say his Asperger's is having an effect. He's dealing with a lot of changes just now - coming home to live, getting a full time job, volunteering for National Trust and about to go to a new university to do his masters! And his difficulties and struggles are so hard to watch...
