Last week before lockdown starts today. My fourth (ok technically fifth but I can't remember when I was 3 months old) and my first on my own.
Mum called and asked if I wanted to come home for lockdown but that would have meant putting Betty into a cattery so I declined. Plus I'm rather looking forward to my first proper adult lockdown. Got lots of plans and no one to interrupt!64Please respect copyright.PENANAy9hGGKxlkH
Even though I was 18 for the last one I was still living at home so it wasn't really the same. Besides, I saw them all at Christmas and they'll no doubt want to zinq regularly and make sure I'm eating and wearing clothes. Must remember to set up that projector Dad got me for Christmas.
Mum and Dad are hoarders so they've been planning and planning and planning which is probably why they gave me a new projector instead of that Moviema subscription. I suspect they would have been one of those crazies if they'd been around in 2020. They start planning for the next lockdown pretty much as soon as the last lockdown has ended. Mum's been buying an extra packet of pasta every shop for the last three years. I haven't inherited their hoarder tendencies but I'm not a jitty either. So while I'm not going to be eating three year old pasta like Mum and Dad I'm also not elbowing the jitties out of the way as they "suddenly" realise it's lockdown year. Except on Saturday. On Saturday I've got to go and get as much fresh food as I can get through before it spoils. Not going on Sunday. Sunday will be carnage with the extreme jitties will be looking to bag bargains half an hour before the doors close.
I did a list about this time last year and I've been gradually ticking items off. No doubt to some jitties it makes me a hoarder but I just consider it prudent. We get to plan for lockdown. I've planned for 8 weeks of no shopping. Which lets me avoid the shops the week before and the week after.
So far I have:
* 56 pouches of Aunty Elsa's for Betty
* 8 sacks kitty litter
* 8 sacks Aunty Elsa's kitibiki
* 8 bags of pasta
* 16 jars of sauce
* 8 bags of rice
* 16 jars of curry
* 8 packets of cornflakes
* 16 litres smlk original
* 3kg coffee beans
* 16 litres orange juice
* 24 cans baked beans
* 8 loaves quickbread
* 15kg soya pieces
* 24 chikieggs (chiize omelettes!)
* 1kg chiize
* Bottle of cooking oil
* 16 bars of chocolate
* 2 packets AtwoZ (if all else fails at least I'll get my vitamins)
