Oh, Trish, I've got midlife rage about something my teenagers have done, and it's a tiny bit

so infuriating.

Go on, what is it?

They've been putting packets back into the fridge that are empty, so my fruit and nut,

or cabbage fruit and nut chocolate which I look forward to, you go into the fridge empty.

After I'm in, which I save for special occasions, like an old lady, empty box, and I've

got rich tea biscuits that I dunk in my tea in the morning, and I only have one.

I think there is some, or some is some, but the sort of scrappy packet has been left, the

empty packet.

Well, they do, and I tell you what they also do is they leave a tiny little dribble in

the bottle of orange juice bottle, and the almond milk, every time I pick it up, there's

just the tiny little splash in the bottom of my arm, like either drink the blooming thing

or put it in the recycling.

Well, they leave the splash because they don't put it in the recycling, and they can't

be bothered, they're too lazy.

This is a new game, it's called Teenager Top Trump, isn't it?

Trumping you with their irritating behaviour, what we do love them, don't we?

Oh, we do.

Hello, welcome to Postcards from Midlife, I'm Nareen Candy, and I'm Trish Halpin, and we're

the lows, about all the issues that affect women at this stage of life, from sleep and sex
