An Eventful Shopping Trip

We go into town most Saturdays, he criticises my driving, my parking skills, what I'm wearing, I show him I've filled in the coffee loyalty card, "What's the point you'll have lost it by the time we go again", he says. It's lovely and sunny, we always go for a coffee and sit outside, even in Winter. Today because I suggest lets go to Bernie's as it's a nice place to sit outside of, he wants to sit inside, that's after "Bernie's where's Bernie's never heard of it, no such place", when I meant Barnies, yes I dared make a mistake.

We go to the supermarket, he walks off and leaves me to get the shopping bags out, when we've finished shopping he goes outside for a cigarette while I pay, pack and wheel the shopping to the car by myself.

Tonight we've been shopping again, to the supermarket he works in. He sees people he knows as we go round, he makes jokes about me, one or two of them laugh and sneer, useless Yvette, silly Yvette, doesn't clean, can't cook, forgets everything....

today has not been a good day
