I have the same problem with the caffeine/teen interface. I think it might be easier for me to get decent decaf, but not a lot.

Regarding OHs, frankly if I get through this without getting a divorce, it'll be a minor miracle. Always knew I did more of the parenting, since I work less than hubby. But being so busy now, and kids off school, is really bringing home how little he does. Apparently the fucking sheep and cows come first, and the kids a very poor second.

In entirely unrelated news, I am feeling a bit grumpy today.

We are now down to 3/4 pint of milk. Currently Billy and OH are having cereal for breakfast, and we drink a lot of tea/coffee. I have switched to soya so I'll be OK. Our delivery comes Friday. This is going to be tense....

[Actually I'm sure someone will go out and get some, and that's exactly what I wanted to avoid]

Yes, my milk is still arriving although a bit later than usual because they have staff shortages.

About This Thread

Maintained by Serendippily
Welcome to the 700 miles in 2020 thread, everybody welcome. The thread motto is:
'700 miles is neither necessary nor sufficient'

At normal times: All you have to do is run about 1.91 miles per day or 13.46 miles per week or 58.33 miles per month and take a picture when you get to 700 miles. Extra points for bins :-) And if you go under or over 700 miles nobody will mind.

Join in the chat on the friendliest thread around - all things discussed, sometimes even running.
