Please cheer me up with your first world problems (light hearted)

[listsandbudgets]

I'm self isolating with a cold (as far as you can when you have kids who keep wanting to see you)... so entertain me... this thread is light hearted please so exaggerate them all you like Only on day 2 and ready to cry

I'll start

I am very distressed, in fact utterly distraught because Gousto have just emailed me to say they can't get enough balsamic vinegar to go with my recipes so they're sending me red wine vinegar instead... my world is ruined.

DH went to the supermarket but got limes instead of lemons - how can I make my Tuesday night French 75s? 😩

However he did buy posh lemonade which has made them quite sufficiently 👌

I bought the wrong crackers today bloody water biscuits who eats water biscuits actually devestated

Couldn’t get our decorator to do the children’s bedrooms so DH and I either have to attempt them ourselves or the children will have to wait.

The trees outside the Sergeants Mess are blocking our view of the Moon.

@Mrsjayy I'll take those water biscuits! We love them in this house....

I was looking forward to the new episode of Outlander which arrives every Monday but they are having a week off!

I have no idea how to retouch my balayage at home

I set my deckchair up in the garden and was about to go out and tan my pasty white legs when next door appeared at the fence to cut the hedges. He’s been out the for an hour. If I relax in my sunny spot, he’ll be staring right at me ten feet away.

He’s on my shit list.

Dogs have put a hole in their paddling pool.

We've run out of bread flour and I really wanted to try my hand at a sourdough starter.

Our new puppy was finally settling down but now he's started to run away when he's off the lead in the garden and has managed to find any number of ways to escape into the neighbouring fields. Little shit.

Ah the husband and dog ate.the water biscuits sorry

I am wincing as I watch my husband do the laundry.

We normally have a housekeeper who does it so the struggle is real 🥴

One of our tents is broken. That means we only have four tents- an 8man, a 6 man, a 3 man and a 1 man. We are 2 adults and 2 children.

The children are having to use the 1 man hiking tent for their garden camp tonight. Instead of their old 3 man which was for garden camping.

I changed our bedding yesterday from the brushed cotton set to a lighterweight cottony M&S set .
I managed to wash the sheet and pillowcases from the heavy set (but left the cover as its KS and can go to the laundrette with the duvets)

"Did you like the new bedding DH?" I asked this morning.
"I didn't notice" he replied .

The turd . I don't involve him in buying them ( he doesn't have anything constructive to say) but he should notice that I wrestled all the bedding on and he brought the clean sheets in from the line yesterday

I only have enough lemon curd for one more slice of toast.

I have two kinds of marmalade and five different kinds of jam BUT I WANT LEMON CURD.
