I wouldn't blame you for ordering in more often. We're still doing pretty good with leftovers, but then I have a smaller family.

L...I agree with Rivulet. You ARE a wonder woman! <br />Loved your Christmas card btw... :) thx!<br />I have laid into it with my kids this week on occasion too about housework. The girls expect me to lounge with them when I'm on my lunch break... really??? How about you let me do some housework because you guys are kind of slobs!!! And why does the couch have to be facing the computer all the dang time. Go binge watch somewhere else!!!! <br />Well, that's my rant for the day. Oh and PICK UP THOSE CUPS FULL OF LIQUID ALL OVER THE DANG LIVINGROOM!!! As Leon knocks one over with his lightsaber...<br />I totally get the line of that song now. "and Mom and Dad can hardly wait for school to start again.

As for grown ass kids coming and asking what time dinner is served! My response would have been, "when you get your ass down here and fix it". Okay....I never said ass to my kids, but I probably would now that they are adults. You are way nicer than me to put a meal on the table after that. <br /><br />Hope things get better. A piece of advice from one who has been there a lot...just worry about what has to be done and don't worry about the budget right now. Plenty of time to worry about that when hubby is back on his feet.

I would have too! <br /><br />You have done great with your grocery bills this month. Even if you have to order out more than you want, it's okay. Give yourself a break. You need some rest or you are going to get sick. I worry about you. I'd be opening bags and boxes from the freezer if it were me. Especially if no one is giving you help.

I am sorry, but glad you survived. Sometimes situations just call for a budgets be damned attitude. That you actually stayed within you might be a Christmas miracle. Hope things get substantially better and the demanding one quits demanding!Anne in the kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01533249631969001657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1611711622146875201.post-47180813759133852082016-12-27T12:33:04.919-05:002016-12-27T12:33:04.919-05:00I fully support and endorse giving into a meltdown...I fully support and endorse giving into a meltdown when due! So far, so good on our end other than stomach bug. I blew my budget plus we have meals out planned but in the grand scheme I'm just going to be Ok. We'll have steak and salmon a couple nuvhts, chicken parm, potatoes and salads. I've plans for soup.
