By the time I head to bed tonight...

...my carer will have eaten 4 meals and multiple snacks today which is the same as I've eaten in two weeks combined.  

 

Steve's had breakfast, lunch, an afternoon "snack" of 4 chicken breasts and he'll have his tea in about 2 hours whereas since last Sunday (ie the 30th October) I've eaten a lunch on the 31st October, Subway on the 6th November and breakfast yesterday and today.  By the time Steve has his tea, I'll have made 6 of the 7 meals since yesterday morning and I'm likely to be responsible for all 3 meals for him tomorrow too.  He hasn't made a meal for me since 31st October and could potentially go for a second week without making a single meal for me if he doesn't make Sunday's meal for both of us <shrug>


Other than the bottles of squash 2-3 times a week, he hasn't made me a drink in over a year.


He's finished his third meal of the day now, so I'd best go and take his plate out then do the washing up so that I've got something to put his fourth meal of the day on at about 7pm tonight.
