A woman's work
Only one day back in after the holiday and I took today off. What a wimp!
Yeah that's what I would have said but, jeez, I've worked my little cotton socks off today. Scrubbing, cleaning, polishing, mopping... need I go on? Well yes, because I didn't mention the shopping.
The real reason for the day off was that I had two deliveries arriving today. The guys from Comet arrived before 9am with my new washer/dryer (oh joy, oh heaven) but the Homebase crew weren't due until after 4pm with my daughter's bedroom suite so I decided to fill my time with some shopping. The contents of my shopping basket....
- Bedding
- A trap (with nipple) for under the sink so I can plumb the new washer in
- Hair straighteners
- A roll of lino for the kitchen floor
- A banana chair
Yes, you heard, a banana chair! It's a bean bag in the shape of a cube but one end is shaped like a banana so you can rest against it. It's bizarre but it looks soooo funky in my living room. Now I need to find out how to lay my new lino and how to plumb in a washing machine. Why do I take these things on?
Huh! The guy from Homebase called to say they'd dropped the wardrobe and damaged it. Now I have to wait two days for them to order one from their Southport store. Maybe I'll just have to book another day off.
I might just sit in my banana chair a while and contemplate the problem.
