Things I can learn ya

Don't ever say I am not a font of knowledge and this advice comes free so if you are cheap like me, pay attention.

• If you leave a small roast in the slow cooker for about 10 hours it will shrink to about half its original size and look most unappetising. If you chop it up and mix it with a packet of roast meat gravy ... you can have roast rolls for tea. If you don't mention the slightly burnt taste of the roast rolls chances are other peeps wont either.
This is not my roast ... mine was worse.




• If your teenager is annoying you with his teenage attitude take him to gym class with you. You will feel secretly thrilled when the instructor makes his muscles cane and he will be too exhausted/filled with endorphins to argue with you, fight with his sister or call his father unflattering names...for at least 6 hours anyway.





• If you sign your child up for theatre classes don't be surprised when they turn into a drama queen and nick your foundation "because the theatre lights are making me look very pale" and make a list of demands each and every day like a true Diva.
  
  
• If you are somewhat of a control freak and you plan a night out with your husband and it all goes to hell in a hand basket don't drop your bundle, leave your favorite restaurant before even ordering drinks and be home to relieve the baby sitter before 7.30pm... you will feel slightly ill the next day for acting like a 3 year old and you may have to apologise to innocent bystanders aka the husband.


• If you have about 6 cold sores on your face and you are trying every patch cream tablet and miracle cure known to man don't be surprised when everyone wants to tell you you have "something on your lip". The girl at the newsagents thought it was "icing" ICING!!!

I feel ya pain Katie.

That is it for now... I'm off to put some more icing on my lip and see what time boxercise starts.
