Having spent 3 hours doing Club 'stuff' they can all fuck right off. I have hardly spoken to OH. I have missed my planned YouTube yoga sesh with Adriene. It's like being at work, but I don't get paid.

"In the 19th Century had a simple opening at one end, and often the pillow would fall out. In the 1880's the Housewives Co-operative in Bolton adapted a standard pillowcase to include an inside flap at the end, keeping the pillowcase in place. They then became known as "Housewife" pillowcases in the co-operatives honour."
