Note to readers (my lovely Baggees): For the avoidance of any doubt - every character in this blog is me!!! No Baggy was harmed in its writing.
Baggy's daily state!
Depression (Black = really bad/Grey = not great/Blue = okay/Yellow = sunny day): Yellow.
Anxiety (From 1 = barely any to 10 = gibbering wreck standard): 2.
Tears:Yes.
Overall day: 😻
Sorry baggees but Creative Clara is likely to be AWOL for a few days. Baggy's sister arrived yesterday, armed with rubber gloves, vacuum cleaner, dusters and presents, plus holiday spending money! Bracket kat is certain that she must have the pesky dog with her, who last time she arrived chased her straight up a tree. It doesn't matter how many times Furry Mama tells her that Pickle is not here, she won't come out from under the bed! It's been 24-hours so far. Sigh! The house is looking amazing though. While Baggy slept until ten this morning (much wine was consumed last night), The real Domestic Goddess, not the "not"one, cleaned the house. She's done so much vacuuming, that it looks as though it's been redecorated. This is unfortunate for The Domestic Goddess who thought she'd done a really good job of getting the house looking lovely for Debby's arrival! She'd failed! Apparently washing the grubby soap by the kitchen sink, was rather less important than washing the dish draining tray, that was purportedly a health hazard. Ah well. Clever Bird had thought that it was a good idea.
While shopping for food, Debby insisted that The Domestic Goddess buy a sink-unblocker thingy for the sink. When she put it down the sink, there was much bubbling noise, then a volcano of brown stuff shot back up out of the plughole. Yuck. The Goddess was feeling less adequate by the second. Hormonal Hannah suddenly felt overwhelmed with uselessness. Tears were shed. Fortunately Debby missed them! All she is doing is being lovely. It's Hannah's fault for making Baggy feel inadequate. Debby is being kind. And BIZARRE! The woman just loves cleaning!
When shopping, Baggy also decided to treat The Goddess to a mop and bucket. Yeah - sad baggees, but actually The Goddess was quite chuffed. She's a simple soul really. On the way home, they popped into the farm shop. More presents from Baggy's sister! Lovely plants for Gloria Gardener's pots, that she was lovingly tendering the weeds in! Then some bark and gravel to spruce up her patio a bit - tomorrow's task! Photos will follow tomorrow - well they will if Hannah doesn't make her forget to take them. Meanwhile a joint effort between The Domestic Goddess (actually let's just rename her Not) and the real Domestic Goddess, resulted in home made shepherd's pie, cauliflower cheese, peas and sugar snaps for Calum's home-coming from work tonight. Yes, The Goddess did help (the cheese sauce was entirely hers). No baggees, NOT from a packet. But it also made Furry Mama realise just how useless The Goddess usually is. A typical phone conversation on a Friday generally goes, "So what's for tea tonight?"
"No idea".
"Oh. Shall I get fish and chips on the way home?"
"Well that would be nice".
Things need to change..................
