What a Nincompoop.

I sellotaped a little brown envelope to my front letterbox with a small Christmas tip for my Saturday paper boy.
It was perfectly safe and couldn't be seen from the street or passers by.

Half an hour later I went and got it in again - it is only Tuesday!!!


Am I beyond help?

Re: What a Nincompoop.

No im sure you can be fixed Mups, but your having one hell of a week. BTW i used to deliver papers and loved my tips, however i never felt comfortable taking them pinned to a door, always worried they were not for me.

Re: What a Nincompoop.

That's very encouraging knowing I can be fixed Nom, I feel better already.

I did write on the envelope, so he needn't worry whether it's for him or not.

I'm all upside down with days this week too, that always happens when we have bank holidays I get all confused about who is working which day and then forget what day of the week it actually is

Re: What a Nincompoop.

Don't worry. I think it's such a busy time of the year and we don't quite know if we're coming or going . You're not alone Mups

Re: What a Nincompoop.

Don't worry about it Mups, it happens to everyone during Christmas week, too many thoughts going through the mind at once.
Phyllis got into a bit of a panic earlier today, she went to the cupboard to get her tablets, she has to take two a day, and they were not in the usual place, she searched everywhere then decided she must have accidentally thrown them in the bin, she went around to the Chemist and the chap there fixed her up with a few tablets until her prescription comes though next week. When she got home she collected a few things for the washing machine and as usual went through any pockets and there in her apron pocket was the box of tablets.
There is far too much unnecessary stress put on people at Christmas time I think.

Strange how that word you used 'Nincompoop' was going through my brain all morning then it appears on a thread.

I'm sure you're psychic Jem .......

Re: What a Nincompoop.

Everyone goes about like headless chickens on the run up to Christmas. What should be a peaceful time of year is absolute pandemonium for most . It's a shame.

That's a bit spooky Jem.

Good job the pills didn't get as far as the washing machine!

Yes Mups, I was wondering how it was spelt and I jotted down several times how I thought it was spelt, that was at probably between 10-11am this morning.
