We were supposed to be visiting family for a few days to celebrate the new year.
However, they called this morning to say they have fallen ill with a tummy bug. I'm glad they let us know. We wouldn't want to visit and catch anything. We also don't want to disturb them whilst they are ill.
However, we hardly have any food in the house.
I put an anonymous post on Facebook asking what shops are open today as we now need to get supplies in. I didn't give any details as I don't want to announce to the world that my inlaws have a funny tummy.
I had tried googling but wasn't sure if opening times would be different with it being New Year's Day. We are in Scotland so this is a holiday.
We can just about scrape together enough for today but it will be a bit rubbish. Pot noodles, cuppa soup, beige freezer food.
My husband has shouted at me that we should just make do. I shouldn't have announced it to Facebook.
It was anonymous so I didn't announce anything.
None of us are ill. And what we have in the house won't satisfy the appetite of him or the kids so I was just going to get more to eat plus some bread and milk.
He is now sulking saying we shouldn't be enjoying ourselves if the other family members are ill. I think this is ridiculous.
Am i missing something here or is he being ridiculous?
I'm going to go to the local Asda and get stuff for the kids and I. He can eat pot noodles if he wants.
