Sunday jobs

 Another hard frost overnight, the heating came on in the early hours but it's fine and bright sunshine now....in fact lovely weather is forecast for the next several days.

I've got a busy morning, the budget for the month to do, a new menu plan using up lots of things in the freezer.  I need to print something off, which isn't as easy as it should be - firstly husband has to scrabble about under his desk to locate the cables and plug them in.  He disconnects them each time...don't ask me why, another of his cognitive foibles probably.  As I don't often have a need to print anything, and I'm technologically challenged, every time I need to print something it's always like I've never done it before, I can't remember how to do it so have to look it up - it usually involves a lot of swearing πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚.  After a big mug of coffee and a game of something or other on the computer - to calm my nerves πŸ˜‰ - then I'll get on with dinner prep - toad in the hole today with a sort of potato dauphinoise thing - sliced potatoes in a cheese sauce, I want to try making a dairy-free one with oat milk, nutritional yeast flakes and the oakwood smoked cheese.  Green veggies on the side.  

Husband's got some garden work to do, I can keep an eye on him from the kitchen window, help where necessary, guide him back to the job he's supposed to be doing (he never finishes one job at a time but flits between jobs, which means nothing gets completed).  I'll also keep him supplied with cuppas and make sure he has breaks.  Then we'll relax this afternoon.  Oh and Sue - nooooo, we won't be dressing up and going to watch the darts!! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

  1. I'm OK printing (although sometimes my printer and computer refuse to talk to each other) but when it comes to scanning, I always have to think hard to remember what to do! My son, who is my go-to IT expert, hates printers, too. So we're all in good company!🀣
    Still a nip in the air here, so I won't be getting in the garden just yet. I can see so much that needs doing, but I hate getting cold. Supposed to be getting much warmer by next weekend, so fingers crossed. xx

  2. Printers are a law unto themselves, and yes like you I tend to have a few games of Patience on the computer after any stressful session of work ... or printing!! ;-)

  3. Sometimes my printer disconnects from my computer for no reason what so ever. Dang annoying.

    God bless.
