A few tiny irritants in my world today....

[MaureenMLove]

1. my neighbour put my bins out and took them in again once emptied. I fear this is because he knows my DH has recently left and feels I can't manage. My DH never put the bins out in 28 years fgs!!

2). My cleaning spray bottle is nearly empty and every time I plonk it down in the surface it falls over and/or falls on the fall

3). Friend text me at 12.22 to say do I fancy a coffee. I replied at 12.23, 'lovely, where are you, I'll meet you?' She has yet to reply...

4. I can't reach the biscuits and due to number 1 I'll have to get up for them myself!!

Someone ate my lovely brown seeded bread I had in mind to go with a poached egg before I went to work.
No coffee left so couldn't take any of that to work either!!
And at the dentist soon!!
Hoping the day gets better!!

Sorry to hear about your relationship breakdown. Enjoy the novelty of the bin fairy while it lasts

I can't find my son's school shoes, they've just went poof

Ah, small mercy for me then, any food that comes into this house, will only be eaten by me.

Still not heard from friend and I know she's read the reply? . Last seen drinking coffee in Costa according to her Facebook, so maybe it's was more of a 'I'm on my way'

New one for today.

Just got to work. The staff room smells of stale and rotting food! All the bins are full of rubbish, either food waste or other. It is a busy staff room.

The cleaners clean in the mornings and not the afternoon. No wonder there are mouse traps all over the school!! They're having a banquette every night! I don't get it. Surely start emptying bins as soon as kids have gone home!

(They also aren't here yet, which looks and smells great for Head Teachers surgery which starts in 15 mins!)

Good thread OP!
Firstly, I’ve had a terrible night sleep - 6 year old had a nightmare then needed the toilet and wouldn’t go alone because of the nightmare.
Secondly, I’ve just had an awful nose bleed and I just feel weak and yuck.
Finally, “D”H and I are not talking...

I’ve woken up with a shitty headache and I’ve got a whole day staff away day to go to.

The venue is about a twenty minute walk which I know will do my headache good but it’s cold and I can’t be arsed.

There is crap parking so I would be better off walking.

I hate when the universe is right!

Woke up to the dog scratching her eczema so now she looks like a "before" poster for the RSPCA and we get disapproving looks in the park.

Yesterday I searched high and low for my o lunch pair of maternity leggings. Looked absolutely everywhere but had to resort to wearing jeans (which although maternity are now too small and I was uncomfortable all day)
This morning I asked DH to have a look for the leggings for me and lo and behold they were in the drawer I had looked in 18 bloody times yesterday. And rather than just being a normal person, he was a smug arsed about it.

Did you ever meet your friend for coffee op?

*only not o lunch

I bought a beautiful pair of new boots but they've given me a thundering great blister on one foot that compeed isn't sorting, so I've been walking a bit strangely favouring the other foot, which is now in agony and I can't weight bare on it properly. And I'm taking ds trick or treating tonight. Going to ice it and dose up on painkillers and hope that works. As it is I'm a bit of a hobbling mess.

Dp left for work late so I won't have time for a shower before the school run so I have to get dressed, come home, get washed and dressed again and it just seems like so much effort.

I have an impacted and partially erupted wisdom tooth that I'm waiting on surgery to get out, and it keeps getting bits of food stuck in the bit of flappy gum and it's so bloody sore.

I'd quite like to go back to bed today tbh.

Woke early with a headache. Bloody hate that.
Thought I’d have a serrapeptase on an empty stomach to stop any joint pain.
Can’t find the buggery bollox things that I know I left on my bedside table 😡
I’m hungry now...so when I do find the bastards..I’ll have to wait another hour for breakfast ...or just eat my omelette

I’m going to have another sleep...and hope the Kim Woodburn I keep channelling has disappeared when I wake up again
😂

Sorry to hear (read) about dh leaving Maureen, you doing ok?

I'm supposed to be taking the girls to a local Halloween event today, between 11am and 2pm

DHL have emailed to say they will be delivering my parcel between 12 and 1pm. Right in the middle of it . & my neighbour, who would usually take it in, is at work today.

& the link to rearrange delivery has vanished from my email. So I don't know whether to go out or not & just re-arrange it for another day when the 'we missed you' card comes through the door.

My new wardrobes are being delivered today but I can't put them up cos the carpet isn't coming until Friday.... the carpet man is coming at 8am to measure up (it's 8.25 now.....) but good news is I was No.1 on bed delivery list today and my son's bed is in place and his room is finished!

Lucysmam if you download the app you can rearrange on there or get them to leave in a safe place :)

Lack of sleep due to menopause. How long does the sleeping for only 3 hours a night go on for?

Bought some delicious looking chocolate coated peanut brittle from M&S. Gutted to find out it's just like a Dime bar - but worse.

Better news update. DH gave me a lift but I’m early so I’m in the Cafe eating toast. Result!

I’ve had 3 hours sleep due to a snotty, coughing toddler. I’m on a train next to the spreadiest manspreader I’ve ever encountered and I’ve just been told my PIP claim has been rejected, so now I’m going to have to fight for ESA instead of being automatically awarded.

I hate the whole benefits system and arm-rest stealing manspreaders

Hi MaureenMLove - hope you're OK?

Haven't chatted for ages - sounds like you have a lot to deal with

How many wet towels on the bed justify murder?
I got up at 5.45 after being prodded and elbowed all night by my sweaty DH.
Then the above.
I didn't have any pain au chocolat left to have with my coffee because everyone I buy them, my feral children eat them as soon as they see them!

My brother was horrible to me this morning and made me cry, so now I have a migraine. Am at home but have eleventy-billion reports to write.

And now my ebay buyer is claiming to have not received their delivery, so dp is furious with me because we might be £30 down.

Fingers crossed it actually is late and the buyer is reasonable. 🙁

My croissant was soggy. Ffs, how hard is it to make a crispy pastry in 2018?!

Also I have a cough. I can't take anything as I'm a few weeks pregnant so people at work think I'm skiving off just because of a sore throat.

Have also got an interview for a job I applied for before I knew i was pregnant. I want it, but feel screwed!

Woke to the smell of cat shit, new litter which means he has used it for the first time ever. Had forgotten what it was like to have to scoop.

Have to wait 10 days for a biopsy on a lesion, then wait for the results.

Although the dishwasher was emptied of clean stuff and ready to fill I found a dirty mug left next to it when I got up.

I don't feel at all well today (sore throat, probably coming down with a cold) but I went into work because I only go in there one day a week and I had two meetings arranged.

Also the last time I saw everyone was at a colleague's wedding and I got disgustingly drunk and behaved disgracefully and I thought not going in would be cowardly.

Anyway, both meetings were cancelled.

AND I've had the piss ripped out of me all day.

So I'm mortified (even though it's all my own fault)

Thank you @lucysmam and @KatyMac, I'll be ok.  Me old mucker @Kbear has got my back! 

I did meet my friend for coffee eventually! Useless woman!

No more irritants today thankfully - unless you count the fact that it's Wednesday and as Kbear knows, it never has been my favourite day, due to a weekly visit from a relative I'd rather not see!
