Help!

I missed recording the Harry Potter costume thingy because a tyre went egg-shaped on the way back from the shops. If anyone has recorded it at all, please let me know. We'd appreciate a disc, or even a tape.

Get up, whiz out early to get important gotta-be-fresh things, pick up meat pre-ordered from butcher and get the Dowager Countess's present. This takes longer than expected owing to aforementioned egg-shaped tyre, resulting in aforementioned missage of essential telly (now happily to be remedied thanks to [livejournal.com profile] lil_shepherd and [livejournal.com profile] inamac who are splendid people). Come home to blocked-up loo calling weakly for caustic soda, realisation that I've forgotten cheese and plonk, and a DC who wants to get her prescription filled at the chemist for the pills she should have got more of days before she came here (as in she's been taking half doses rather than get some more: today she tells me). Since I have to go out anyway, I volunteer to get it for her, and she hands me...not a prescription, but the repeat slip with the list of medicines.

Pause. Breathe. Breathing is good.

Take slip to surgery. They obligingly (very obligingly) make an appointment for the DC to see the doctor and be temporarily registered here so that they can issue a prescription. Back home, fetch DC, take to surgery. Go do shopping, pick up DC from surgery, take to chemist, wait in car since my legs are for some reason disinclined to work, take DC with meds home. Collapse.

Somewhere there is shopping to be dealt with. Somewhere there is a tree to be fetched down, put up and trimmed. Somewhere there is a loo to be unblocked. As things stand at the moment it's six to four and pick 'em whether this will get done tonight or not. I write this during a brief break from watching Pirates 2 on DVD. When it finishes we'll see.

Happy Holidays can sometimes be too much like hard work. :)
