A Bit Fed Up



Rick looking out of the window (he is not actually allowed on this chair)

It’s not so much about lockdown, it’s this stupid weather!  Another grey, rainy and miserable day.  Rick can’t play in his garden and Paul and I can’t go cycling.  Well, we could but it wouldn’t be much fun.

I’ve done my household chores (I actually polished the door handles and sorted my underwear drawer today), got some bread out of the freezer to make sardine bruschetta for lunch and some chicken for tonight’s meal and it’s only 9.00 a.m.   I’ve just been thwarted by a scrabble move (Words with Friends) on my phone.  I knew exactly where I was going to make my next move to score really high points and then my coffee morning mate, Ralphie, got there first.  He’s a hard chap to beat at scrabble. And now it looks like Bob is going to beat me too.

Rick is also fed up.  He is sulking because his dad is outside tidying his garage.  A tidy garage?  Whatever next!

  1. Nothing in this world can do 'miserable' as well as a dog!

  2. I think he likes the comfy blanket on the chair!

  4. Sorting out your underwear drawer must have taken a good long while - so many pairs of "Hattie Jacques" brand bloomers and other unmentionables. What is a camisole anyway?

    1. I just love the way it hangs down like that.

  6. I love "Words With Friends" but I don't usually come out on top. My nemesis is Steve.

  7. We've had quite a bit of rain as well, and more to come!

    1. We've had so much wind too. I'm hoping next week will be better, the forecast for the weekend is not good.

  8. I wish we lived a bit nearer, then Paul could come and sort my garage out when he's finished yours - mine would be a real challenge!
    Poor Rick, how miserable when you can't go out to play.

    1. Paul's garages are chronically untidy. You wouldn't want him near yours!

  9. I went to Frayssinet for my bread yesterday, and also to that shop opposite the school, that seems to open and close on a regular basis. It is now open again, and I popped in for some eggs and bananas. Nice young couple, and plenty of good things; but somehow I expect it will close again before too long.
