Today can fuck right off

[Barmbraic]

I haven't slept properly in nearly three weeks, I'm having horrible stress dreams every night. Last night I barely slept at all. Work is annoying.

I decided to have a major comfort dinner, roast chicken, roast potatoes & veg, gravy, the works. I've never had it but someone was talking about it at the weekend, so I decided to make myself cauliflower cheese. I love cauliflower, I love cheese, what could be more perfect?

To get the flour I had to dig through the baking cupboard of doom. Only to find some twatbag probably me had managed to knock over a tin of golden syrup. It was everywhere. So while cooking dinner and doing homework, I had to empty out the cupboard, clean the various tins and jars and find homes for the contents of ruined packets.

Cauliflower cheese is mediocre at best.

sounds like you need a large one.

Oh for fuckssakes.
I feel your pain.
I had haloumi and now feel sick and thirsty but can’t move as cat is asleep on me.
Bloody life

Joining you in telling today to fuck off.

Work is shit.
My boss is a tiny penised shit head who deserves to die in a fiery and painful way

I hate everyone.

Next time just close the door, pretend you didn't see the mess and innocently ask someone else in the house to find something in the cupboard of doom for you. Let them clean it up 🤣

I agree. Can't remember the last time I slept well. Teen has done nothing but lie to me, I'm trying to back him up with school but don't know why I'm bothering. He doesn't care what punishments I throw at him. Claims there's nothing wrong but there clearly is.
Had a falling out with my DF yesterday over his pathetic homophobic views (apparently its his age. I have friends who are up to 30 years older than him and don't have his opinions). Then had a disagreement with the rest of my family because they are childish.

I love cauliflower cheese but whenever I make it its watery and shite.

Lockdown makes me really grumpy.

I can make your days better in 60 seconds. Google "Four Seasons Total Landscaping" and enjoy the schadenfreude

I do feel your syrup-based pain though, it's the very devil to clean up.

Oh, if only that would work, Fatgirlshrinking no other fucker does any cooking around here so would think I'd completely lost it if I asked

Sorry others are having a shite day too

Cauliflower cheese is one of the few things I make that I actually enjoy eating myself.
@Barmbraic and @TheFormerPorpentinaScamander, I wish I could make you a big fat dish of it

My sympathies.
DH had a cold starting last week, by Thursday he was wondering if his sense of taste was all there. He did the decent thing, went for a test which he managed to get within a couple of hours of requesting it.
DS2 had to stay off school and DS1 at work.
The test result comes back on Saturday morning as "inconclusive", FFS, so he went back for another on Saturday and we are still fucking waiting as they are busy now.
I couldn't go to work today, DS's haven't been to work or school. The only one who can WFH is DH.
Bloody shitty system wasting my time for what is probably a cold.
I haven't been past the front gate since Thursday.
I would love a walk.

Next time just close the door, pretend you didn't see the mess and innocently ask someone else in the house to find something in the cupboard of doom for you. Let them clean it up 🤣
This!

Thank you Rick (btw, epic username, great memories of him banging out the tunes )

HavelockVetinari reading about it yesterday was the highlight of the last few months.

M&S bung in the oven cauliflower cheese next time - easy peasy.

Can't help with the golden syrup mess but my cupboard of doom manages to throw out spaghetti all over the kitchen floor on occasion.

Also, my husband is being a twat today so I feel your bad day pain.

Next time just buy it ready made from the frozen food section 😂

It’s lack of sleep that’s the killer. It makes everything grey and shit.

I envy teenagers so much

@FatGirlShrinking your description of your boss made me laugh so hopefully will cheer others up too

Thanks @RickOShay I'm in the SE if you want to drop a dish over
Alternatively how do you make it? I've tried so many recipes and it never works.

Ooh not that far!! I’m on the east coast. Could I post it realistically?

Had to come home today as dh also went for a Covid test - probably a cold. He’s not sure if he’s done it right, so will probably have to have another. Washing machine chose today to break. We’ve already run out of milk. It’s really busy at work and I feel guilty for being at home. It’s so rubbish.

Today definitely can fuck off. Same crap here with work, shit bosses, mardy teens, too much stress.

My sleep routine is basically feel tired, switch off light, brain immediately becomes wide awake with worries about the DC and stress about all the hundred and one things at work or having imaginary arguments with my boss where I tell him how crap he is. 🙄🙄🙄

@RickOShay

Ooh not that far!! I’m on the east coast. Could I post it realistically?

probably not. I'm not sure how well it would travel!

If this is a thread about today being the crap day from hell...

DH and I had a blazing row. He has stormed out. Bedroom light bulb decided to shatter all over the bed. Have to clean up broken glass before I can go to bed and cry.

Yep, another shitty day of 2020 here. I'm on day 4 of a horrible bout of tonsillitis, drugged up to the max, starving hungry but any food I eat is like swallowing gravel, 3 kids under 4 at home and all our furniture, clothes, toys and other crap only just arrived this week from overseas so it looks like a bomb went off in every direction of our flat. Wake me up when it's Xmas please.

Oh poor us
Dh also being a complete twat. I’m ignoring him.
Tomorrow will be better

Missing the point here but bbc good food has a fab really easy cauliflower cheese, I always manage to completely fuck up a cheese sauce but somehow manage to make this 1 perfect every time

Happy to post cauliflower cheese recipe if that would help a bit?
