That has to be keeping a family together through thick and thin

Morning all - glorious outside again

Still a bit of a delicate flower this morning.
Errant son decided he needed a shower in the en suite first thing this morning so I ousted myself from the bedroom and sought sanctuary in the down stairs bathroom. 10 mins later in mid flow he needs his shaving kit so I am also ousted from the downstairs bathroom :mad:
I need the normal morning routine before I can make sense of the world.

Errant son has his career interview this morning so he is driving up. He has given himself an hour. I think parts of the D road are closed but I cant figure out which bits or even if its the same direction as he is going to Newcastle. Also no idea where he intends parking the big van.Last week he went up on the train but he didn't bother to double check anything and the office is now not in Hanley, its in Newcastle.

On the plus side it does mean I have the house to myself for a few hours :T

But i still have the tedious drudgery to finish before I can go out and play. There is a big stew pot that is soaking but it needs scrubbing. It has been there for days but no one is taking responsibility for it - I don't eat stew and cleaning the stew pot is literally going to make me spew. OH will be told and he will say not my job to clean stew pot, ask Errant son, deep sigh.

Also have to compose the big Aldi list for Tomorrow. Last week we more of less lived out of the fridge and freezer but as we don't keep big stores of anything so now its already looking depleted.
I started a menu plan but OH is objecting even though he is only rotared to do chefs duties 3 nights out of 7
Errant son has a very big appetite so it has to be full family meals every night. Last night we had the last of the butchers sausages - peas, carrots, green beans, mash, cranberry sauce (free from Q) , sage and onion stuffing mx (free from COS) and yorkshire puds
and then afterwards Rachels greek yogurt, bananas and crushed amaretti biscuits to follow.At least if we do family meals Errant son is not making soup or beans later and starting another washing up pile.
OH thinks chicken nuggets will do, obviously not.

Talk to you all later - mugs of tea in the garden

Not going totally crackers despite the madness going on around me

Right, I must now approach the garage.

I know the paint (OK, I know it is not paint, but does the same job) for the shed is in there - somewhere!

Wish me luck, if I am not spotted within a week send out a search party :rotfl::rotfl:
