It’s Tuesday and I have a few grumps

Tuesday is always my grump day, too far from last weekend, not close to next. This morning I took my son into town to go to work, got back home and switched on the coffee, then my car alarm started going. It was only 7.30, I was worried about waking the neighbours. It kept going off, in the end I went out three times, checked the doors, switched the engine on and off. Only on the third attempt did I see that the bonnet was slightly open - my son must have knocked the bonnet release with his bag when he got out of the car. Typical Tuesday.

My preferred cycling route to the nearest small town for shopping is in such a bad state due to heavy lorries owned by the municipal heating plant, electricity company etc. etc. having torn up the road and done Dxxm all about it, that I had to leave my bike and walk 3 km each way!

The grass is still soaking wet and unlikely to get drier, but it does need to be mown again before the winter, and my right leg is still complaining bitterly about my mowing the lawns three weeks ago.

But at least I still can walk 6 km, 3 of them with 2kilos of potatoes, four tubs of cream, three packets of yeast, and a new winter jacket in a back-pack.

Oh, I forgot the traffic light sat a major road junction were out of commission both when I went and when I retured, Electricians and vans on all sides of the T junction, but gone are the days when police directed traffic on these occasions.

To Crazy H: I have not been able to eat any chocolate for decades because of migraines! - I just sniff it!!

Grump for today (and yesterday and tomorrow .......) - blooming hopeless health!! - bring back my normal functioning body! - which I took entirely for granted .... sigh.

My friend who had this problem discovered she could eat white chocolate. Sadly she has been enjoying this so much the GP has told her her glucose level is too high .

I fell heavily on my foot and have broken a bone so now have crutches and a moon boot as my new fashion accessories! Ugh crutches are such a nuisance!! As is the moon boot… oh the relief when I take it off to get into bed - only 5 weeks to go … hopefully 🤞

We have a new dog she is gorgeous but wants so much attention. I'm a night owl anyway up until the early hours feeding hedgehogs and foxes.
My arthritic joints are acting up so now I need some sleep at least for a few hours!

It isn't Tuesday but these are my grumps for today. I stopped at the bank to pay my charge bill. The associate handed me the receipt and said have a good day. I asked about my change, she looked at me, looked at the statement and then gave me the correct amount. I then went to meet a friend for coffee, ordered and paid for a large, I got a medium. Small stuff, but I was irritated.

Where do I start? I go to a weekly activity with a friend & (distant) relative and the relative is driving me MAD. She is such a martyr to her family and so flipping sanctimonious, it just sucks the joy out of everything. We had a reprise of all her ‘greatest hits’ on today’s journey andI am wondering whether to change to another local group.
Then I had a migraine last evening, meaning we had to cancel a meal out with other friends.
Finally I have a scary medical appointment next week. Aaaargh!!

Woke up.this morning with cystitis. Had planned a long walk but no chance now. That's my Thursday grump.
