6hr car journey to PiL today. Thought it would be good to leave in morning. Stop for lunch etc So got everyone packed and ready yesterday, or so I thought...
So far DH has filled the morning with:
- Buying special fuel for garden tool.
- Filling said tool with fuel on allotment.
- Buying Xmas present for child that I could have bought yesterday if I'd known he hadn't done this.
- Vacuuming (he never vacuums under normal circumstances)
- Winding DCs up with playfighting to the point that everyone got sent to separate rooms.
- Buying (separate shopping trip) extra food for pet and present for next door neighbour.
- washing and drying a load of laundry.
I can't even pack the car because he keeps using it for his errands.
There is no end in sight to this sudden domesticity. Nearly 1pm... still a 6hr journey ahead.
