Finished the last of the tri-colour quinoa at the weekend. It reminded me of those millet seed things my mum used to hang up in her budgie’s cage  😂 

Sounds dire!

Morning folks, hope everyone is ok  

Took the dog for a quick walk round the block first thing this morning before everyone else starts doing the same thing.  She really loved being in the garden yesterday, her tail was wagging all day. Hopefully we'll get more nice weather in the next few weeks to carry this on.  

My cough has gone and I feel loads better thank goodness. Just waiting for my Mr M order, only 1 thing missing and the subs are all acceptable eg cheese for cheese, so all good in that respect.

Afternoon all

Well I had to order fresh lasagne sheets from Mr M as the dried was out of stock.  Guess what they substituted the fresh for - yes dried lasagne sheets 🤣 Tried to book a slot for 14 April which looked to be the next available date - no slots available.  So my final delivery will be 2 April up to now.  I'll keep looking though. DD said she'd bring back what we need but as she doesn't start work until 12 a lot of things have gone out off the shelves by then.  Surely the panic buying will have calmed down by then.

Did the Joe Wicks workout this morning, I enjoyed it and it was lovely that he got messages from people all over the world joining in.

I hope the panic buying will die down SA but there's no sign of it yet! We need to try and get another delivery slot but I don't know how or when we'll manage it! I've asked DS2 to buy skimmed milk if he sees any on his trips out to the supermarket.

SSG - DD prepares food for the salad and pizza bar in the back so only has to go up front to put it on the counter occasionally.

Have spent a couple of hours in the garden in the lovely sunshine.  Got loads of tidying up done and more or less filled the garden waste bin.  Sat for half an hour with my book right at the bottom of the garden where it's warm and sheltered. If we've all got to stay home please let's have some warm sunny weather.

Overheard a conversation between my neighbours saying how many years have we lived next door to each other and this is the longest conversation we've had, some good coming out of all this.  We all have very long secluded gardens with nothing at the back of us so we rarely see each other. I live next door to a church so only have a neighbour on one side.  At least we're all good from a social distancing perspective.

Our local pub is selling its food, beer and wine stocks half price, bring your own container for the beer. Not telling Mr SA about the beer or he'll be emptying the wheelie bin and towing it behind his scooter 😂

I can picture this SA 😂😂 our local pub did takeaway roast for Mother's Day and you got a free glass of gin with too, sadly I was at work 😟

Evening folks.

DD was sent home from work early as they hardly had any customers. She said they all came in during the morning so it was dead in the afternoon. She said plenty on the shelves so the moral of the tale is shop later in the day. This is Mr M. She had an abusive customer complaining about lack of pasta, DD doesn’t mince her words and gave him short shrift 👍

Work debriefing meeting this afternoon and upsetting that so many colleagues are really struggling. The knock on effects at work are enormous there is so much to think about. I’m trying to remain upbeat but it’s very difficult. It doesn’t help that Mr SA is totally unaffected as he never goes anywhere anyway and I’m the one sorting it all out for him making sure he still gets his food and beer.

Things can only get better 🤞

People are so ridiculous, I'd love to know what DD said to the complaining customer 🤣.

I really hope things get better. They will one day .

Trying to just take it day by day.
My stress levels are climbing.

Beanie from past experience of my last 7 years run of bad luck is to take it one day at a time xx
