Hellooooooooo! Yes, I am still alive and kicking, and juggling my family which has increased by two members as we’ve had friends staying with us for a couple of months as one of them convalesces after a major operation.
I always love to see how God expands our house to fit as many bodies as we need to. Never before has the Bible story of the fish and loaves seemed so alive to me. We’ve joked that if necessary we could start hanging hammocks from the beams over our dining room table. What’s really, really funny is watching Gary giggle nervously as he weighs up the chances I am actually joking with the fact that he wouldn’t put it past me to be totally serious. Lol….Gary obviously knows me too well 😉
The Corona virus is finally more of a reality as we see the empty shelves in our local supermarket. Finding enough loo roll for nine people was hard enough before the virus hit. Now it is nearby impossible! I do a normal shop and get frowned at because I am clearly taking more of my fair share of produce! Except there are nine bottoms to wipe, actually were nine bottoms. Our friends moved out into their own flat on Saturday. So only seven bottoms now. Still more than the national average per residence but I still feel guilty for picking up two pack of loo rolls instead of just one. And don’t even get me started on the pasta…
Mum, at 74, has decided to self isolate following advice to older people so I’ll be shopping for her over the next few weeks. And you know what that means? Yes, another bottom!
I am thinking disguises are the way to go. Trench coats… hats…. mustaches… pepper spray… hmmm. Maybe not. I will not be beaten though. Have seven people in my family. Am not afraid to use them all. Loo roll watch out. We are coming for you. With separate trolleys if necessary. There will be no getting away.
Peculiar to think this is all because of a respiratory infection. I’d understand if the colon was involved in any way…
There really is none so strange as man.
But the Lemmings theory dictates that we follow the crowd…
…and of course we don’t want to be caught out sans loo roll 😉
Looks like there will be lots of time in my day for posting catch up posts as I have many children at home off work and college. Oh and February is over and you know how much I hate February.
Time to start blogging again, me thinks!
