Fed up (copy)

I am having a major fed up day. I don't feel too great and the weather is terrible. It's pouring with rain and has been all day. I believe it is set to stay like this now for the rest of the week. I have done all the normal chores of washing, ironing, cleaning etc. Simon helped by finishing off the hoovering.

I am now here once again on my own because Simon has gone to an evening car show, or car cruise or what ever Silly name they give to a meeting of sad old blokes in their cars and on their bikes. Presumably, since they are driving they don't actually have a drink although it apparently takes place in a pub car park. May be the police might want to look into that as it's hard to believe that none of them have had a drink. Why hold it at a pub, why not in a field?

I guess there are quite a few women who have once again been left behind in favour of cars and bikes. May be we should form a fringe group and turn up there with our knitting or something. I don't knit, but that seems to be the chauvinistic view of us. We could call ourselves the Car Widows as opposed to Wags. At least we can drink as we would not be driving.

Anyway, looks like another evening here on my own, which does I suppose have the advantage of uninterrupted blogging time. Oh.... that will be after I have cooked dinner of course. I get to eat mine with the kids but Simon would like his saved. Would have been nice if he could have brought something in to save me cooking. Oh yeah, he has no money. Me neither, don't know why because I save the little bit I get. Oh yeah, that's right I also get to pay when everyone else has no money. I think I should stop saving and just say no.

Well it's still raining here, so if it's raining in that pub car park they will all be having a fun time. Wonder if they all sit in their cars or if they stand around in the rain. I know I sound negative, but then I did say at the beginning that I was having a fed up day. The thing is that over the last few years of my Mums illness, if I have learnt anything at all, it is that people and animals matter, nothing else does. Material things are just that .... material. They can't show you love or care for you or appreciate you. You definitely can't take them with you.

So many people today are so materialistic that they spend most of their time pursuing things of no consequence and forgetting the really important things. Sometimes it's too late. I feel like that about my Mum. It's too late now to say and do all the things that I wish I had. If I could have her back to her old self, would I do things differently? Yes, absolutely, of course I would. I would give her more of my time.

Right, I am going to have coffee and then do my Tuesday 13 entry, that should be short as I am up to "I" in the alphabet!!!
