Night Shift

I know @TAB. My son who has just moved back did 5 years of cooking at high school. He is so busy at the moment. Hopefully he'll cook when he isn't so busy. Youngest cooks himself eggs and a few bits and pieces but not family meals (spoilt youngest). The eldest is a great cook, better than me but got slack with it. I think I'll need to get him cooking more when he returns. I got a BBQ 2 Christmas's ago which I think we'll have to break out more as the weather gets better. In the meantime pasta and rice it is😜

@Former-Member i've only just started to get out a bit again, had the lurgie for a week, had to go out a coupke of times and it's taken it out of me a bit.

just cook barbie and eat inside?? .. don't ask me over for pasta and rice erk lol keeding.. @Former-Member

Hi @Appleblossom

Yes - I do understand what you are saying and why - among all the cross-talk on the subject I read what you were about quite well - actually really liked what you said

Some men cannot man-up - how long is it since I first heard that expression - mine couldn't - I would sometimes be screaming at him to do something about something and my voice would crack -

I have not had to do that at all these years I have been alone - but he remarried -

Look - my ex grew up without the help of his father - who was dying from multi organ failure - this has to be among the worst ways to die - he had my ex - we had only just met - and young teenage daughters - and my ex had a lot to do with bringing them up - and our dd to - but not our son

I get it @Appleblossom

And I am glad to know it means a lot to you

We do have a lot in common

Just saw your post linking my toilet dramas @TAB. It was my son who destroyed it but not by eating my pasta or rice😝 He hit it with a hammer trying to get the old toilet seat off. Always a good idea to put a hammer in a 19 yr old testosterone fueled boy with porcelain around 😂

Seems everyone has had the lurgy @plasmo. Hopefully you'll be feeling better and walking again soon. Take care💜😊

It was a yummy dinner . I wouldn't mind some company for tea. I love cottage pie too- not sure if your boys would like that. I hope my mum is better too she as COPD. I'm thinking of booking a place for me & my mum to go away for a week to the Sunshine Coast. We have a special place on the Sunny Coast. My Dad took my mum out to dinner tonight.

I've not gone up much in med- I'm only taking a small dose atm. I have been going okay with it, and still too earlier to tell if it is working but I do feel a bit brighter. Thanks for asking.

What are you up to tomorrow?

is there any other type re 19yo boys? when I turned 19 had a year up in the Army that helped, well, sorta ,, haha @Former-Member lots toys to play with had anyway

yes, you do, re lots in common methunks ..sorry your partner couldn;t cope with verballing hopefully he doesn't now, re 'manning up' as in putting up with that. No one should have to.

I suspect tomorrow I'll end up procrastinating on here @Former-Member. I have lots of housework to do and help mum fix her computer. I'm going to try and do a similar walk as today. That should be me done and exhausted I think. What about you?
