Stressful Cucumbers!

Thanks for yesterday's comments :) Mr C suggested I should put the poor thing out of its misery and show a beheaded flower as today's blip - so cruel!!

I did try to relax yesterday but then I didn't get to sleep until 2am or it might have been 3am - the clocks going back has totally confused me already! ;-) Anyway I woke up far too early, whatever time it was and could NOT go back to sleep as I had everything going round and round in my mind. All the things I hadn't done and needed to do and everything I was behind on! I have given myself a headache!

Amongst the more understandable and common concerns like having no food as I am behind on the shopping and having no clothes as I am behind on the ironing, needing to get some housework done, worrying about work and being annoyed that despite being REALLY good I don't seem to have lost weight this week............was the niggling annoying stressful thought that was....... a bag of cucumbers!

THESE cucumbers have been stressing me out for the last 11 days now so I thought maybe by blipping them it might get it out of my system - like writing down a dream!

It all started not last Wednesday, but the one before. A guy at Welsh class grows them and a woman at Welsh class adores them. He brought them in for her, she was ill so hadn't turned up and I foolishly offered to get them to her.

Every single day since then I have meant to, but she doesn't live on the way to anywhere (even though she isn't that far away). I keep taking them with me when I go out intending to pop them round, but I honestly have not had time - I seem to always be going at a million miles an hour rushing around and running late!

So the cucumbers have been nothing but a travelling companion having a little day out with me then going back in the fridge every night!!

I should add at this point, they looked like this from the start - the strange markings are nothing to do with me honestly! ;-)

I don't even know how long they keep (neither of us like cucumbers) but I feel really stressed and guilty now that I haven't delivered them as promised!

So although I am sure that all my other chores etc will need to be done first, I just have to find time to deliver these sodding cucumbers today or I feel like they will take over my life!!

And there...... dear readers..... is the story of the stressful cucumbers. The moral of the story is - don't trust me with anything! ;-)

Have a good day and do something amazing with the extra hour (it doesn't even have to involve cucumbers)! ;-)
