I'll start.
Our newer car, which I usually drive, has a button to stop/start the engine. have to press brake before operating it but that's it.

When I drive the older car I keep forgetting to release handbrake. 🙄
Woe me!

The oven cleaning man showed up an hour early today before I'd had a chance to drop the dog to daycare.

My fresh flowers have leaned against the window and frazzled from the heat.

My ice chilled rosè is too cold and hurt my teeth 😣

Ocado cancelled four of my deliveries! I have to go the supermarket!

I can 'climatise' my car from my phone (I'm not convinced that 'climatise' is an actual word, but the car company seem to believe it is. I always forget that I can do this until I'm getting into the roasting hot/freezing cold car.

I left my favourite Gucci sunglasses in our holiday home this weekend so now I have to wear my second favourite pair for a whole 4 days.

I thought DP was being a little frisky earlier in the utility room as I bent over to unload the washing machine, I was bent over and I felt my skirt being lifted a bit and his cold hand... I laughed coquettishly and turned to find my German shepherd standing there and no DP

Top tip
Get the frozen lemon and lime slices in bags from Iceland
Realise this does not assist the forgetting the tonic problem but it’s one less thing to remember not to forget 🍸

I got promoted at work and some days it's really stressful.

I signed up for hello fresh but the earliest delivery slot was Friday so I have decided to order takeaways until then. Boo hoo hoo.

I cant have the salad I want for dinner due to an unripe avocado and disappointing mozzarella and I can't be bothered to make anything else

I can’t be bothered to pack for my two week holiday, and booking meals out is boring me now
