DH has spent ALL day...

Wrapping 2 small presents and putting them in a box to post. Literally all day. I am still shocked at his ability to take a small task and make out like it’s a huge thing.
This also did involve not being able to find the address he was sending it to for ages (everyone else’s fault), writing 2 cards out, debating if the present tags were ‘nice enough’.
He spend about 30 minutes writing the address on the box after trying to find ‘parcel labels’ which I am not sure we have ever owned.
Now he is currently dashing to the post office before it closes...

I’ve lost my mind....

It’s 4pm but it’s one in a shop. I also half hope it’s closed - am I evil.

There's a real skill to this, doing a simple job very s l o o o o w l y so that you always seem busy.

Best of all, it's got him out of doing anything else all day, whilst no doubt you've been run ragged.

Is he the same in the bedroom?

Damn it - he made it.....

I don’t think he does it internationally. He can take hours doing the washing up as well for no known reason.

I love the idea that he does in internationally. No wonder May can't get a Brexit deal, they're all scared... Grin

He has a job that requires incredible attention to detail. It means when he cooks he’s a nightmare too.
