An in-between phase

Debsnewbudget

I am an apple girl and dh is an android man
we found a shopping app that goes on both phones and syncs between them. 

It worked so well that as I was ticking them off in the shop the other day, I noticed another item had been added  whilst he was sat in the kitchen! 

If we go together we can split the categories and do some each. 

I also put regular items on with a note to say buy more if on special offer.

This always reminds me of the time years ago we had a list and regularly fetched shopping for other people. 

Earlier in the week I’d had a phone conversation with my mum who’d been diagnosed with Bells Palsy which I’d quickly wrote down on the whiteboard as we chatted. 

Forgot all about it till the weekend when DH but parsley in the trolley - when I queried it he announced it was for Beryl - it took us a few baffled mins whilst I was telling him I don’t know a Beryl and he was equally ‘it’s on the list’ to work out !!!!!! what happening

Thanks @beanielou, it was well nice

Both mine and my friends' handwriting is fairly dreadful @ladyholly but we can mostly work out what the gist is, and the joy of getting something nice in the post once every one or two months is immense.

I also type my shopping list on my phone @badmemory @joedenise though I don't think I could cope with that pressure @Debsnewbudget 😁

Beryl's parsley has really made me smile @dawnybabes

Local beer (with camra discount) with Mr PIP, sketching out where the kitchen stuff should go for the builders. This was a stressy rather than a fun task and I'm pleased I got it dun!

On handwritten shopping lists, I remember my mum sending me shopping many years ago. Her handwriting was really tiny and close together and quite hard to read. She had requested beans apparently but I came back with a Beano comic 🤣

Massive power cut here, just been on the phone to UK Power Networks who all credit are being great with their text updates.
I see dubious freezer content eating and frustrating resetting of technology for the next few days!
