So instead of sorting all that so important uni work out, all has been put aside because tomorrow we have a wedding. No, not mine. Joel and I have been married 7 years. It’s a family wedding! But there’s so much to do it’s just mad!
Today also seemed to be the day my children decided to make a pact to be the loudest and moany they can be. Not even the sticker chart could turn this one around for me today.
Id offered to make cupcakes for the day so I had that going on too and I’ve never messed up so many times in my life! So my angel of a friend drops off my ingredients that I forgot to buy 🙄 I burnt the strawberries 🍓 because I was yelling at my fighting children. So the plan changed to normal vanilla cake with strawberry jam instead of actual strawberry cake.
I eventually called my husband in stressed out tears screaming about trying to eat a ham sandwich without moany arse children then made us all go for a nap because I was so stressed and the kids were crying so much. After we woke up all calmer, happier and more refreshed; nanny and grandad came and wisked the children off to the park while I was left for another go at the cakes.
Only to realise – I couldn’t believe it – I hadnt bought paper cake cases!!! I bought glitter and butterflies and fiddly bits but no cases 🙈
So off to the corner shop to find no cases so off to Tesco I walk. (I hate walking 😂) luckily the rest of the baking went easily once I had all the stuff and got on with it.
Only to have the cakes go over in the box as I delivered them 😭 4 smooshed beyond recognition. Now just the ironing of the outfits, the bag packing and the showers to be done before I can sleep – and it’s already 10pm.
God I hope the kids don’t wake up tonight ; but based on my days luck- I’m not holding my breath.
