You Learn Something New Everyday

The things I have learnt today, thus far:

1 I cannot run the dryer, the stereo, the computer, the dehumidifier and try and boil the jug and the same time. Say “overload” – twice!

2 If someone wants your opinion on a dead cow mat they’ve just bought, just nod and make appreciative mooing noises. Invariably, if you tell them what you think, they won’t like what you tell them.

3 It is unnecessary to have two showers in one morning – 45 minutes apart. I am plot lost, but very clean!

4 My washing is hanging on the line – all pegged out with pink pegs! I have issues.

5 It’s a good idea to balance your cheque account more than once every three months.

7 When your hairdresser advises you what colour to colour your hair – accept what she says. She knows better than you do. And sometimes, just sometimes, she will do it for free!! What a sweetie.

8 When the cat is meowing at the door to go out, even though her cat door is two feet away and open, please open the door for her to get out. If you don’t she will vomit on the carpet and you will have to clean it up.

And it's only 4pm. Whatever will the rest of today learn me?

It's a beautiful day outside. I think I'll go pour myself a wee G&T and go and enjoy what's left of the day.
