Day one went pretty well, both children are still alive and I haven’t killed Gary which is probably because he still has to work, he’s in and out of hospitals everyday and switched from picking up spare body parts to shifting Coronavirus contaminated waste so I’ve gone from feeling mildly repulsed to treating him like a leper, our hygiene routine has escalated from thorough washing of hands to spraying detox where he’s been, making him change immediately, I’m sleeping downstairs and no cuddling with any of us allowed, if I had my way he would live in the garden but guess that’s a bit mean!
Homeschooling…..well there’s always tomorrow!! Although watching the Goonies taught Fabian how to do the Truffle Shuffle which has to be a life skill right?
With all the excitement of doing very little I skipped lunch, not an uncommon thing for me to do but this time it lead to Hypoglycemia it’s happened a couple of times in the past so knew what to do but still the shaking and dizziness were most unpleasant and within seconds my clothes were soaked in sweat and my hair looked like I’d been swimming, to my children’s amusement I struggled forming words for a while afterwards and presumably the brain fog was responsible for the highlight of my day….putting Carex on my toothbrush and then into my mouth before registering what I’d done, minty fresh no but my mouth was bubbling clean!!
Dinner was boringly a great leg of lamb cooked by Millie and apart from the gravy looking like frogspawn it was perfect, she will make a great wife one day if she lays off the cornflour a bit!
I put a lamb stew in the slow cooker and ingredients ready for making bread, almost a picture of domestic bliss but I put the kibosh on that when I thought I’d better cook the chicken that runs out tomorrow, it only needed and hour and fifteen so falling asleep for 3 hours and roasting it until it was the size of a canary wasn’t ideal!
Life but not as we know it
