Boxes!

We were having guests over for dinner later that day, so early in the morning, while it was still cool, we decided to go supermarket shopping.

A simple enough exercise (I thought), just a few grocery items and home again in time for me to gallop through my todo list; wash the car, mow the front lawn and tidy up around the garden.

The weather was good and it was shaping up to be a great day.

But after nearly three hours we had

- tried on 3 outfits,

- closely examined 4 pairs of shoes,

- visited the pharmacy,

- chatted to a couple of passers by

- admired the ear rings in the Jewelers window and exhausted,

- stopped for coffee.


'This is such fun, Anthea said, I'm so glad we could come out together this morning, now what else was it?'

'Oh, yes, the groceries.'


I was getting tense. . . . VERY tense.

Whoever wrote Women are from Venus knew something I didn't, that women's heads are wired differently from men.

The attached video says it all - perhaps I just didn't have enough boxes open!
