Just as my title says really. Feeling incredibly frustrated and generally fed up.
In the process of buying a house, and the solicitors are driving me nuts. We've signed the contracts, so have the other side. Took them two weeks to do the final checks, and now they're waiting on the building certificate as it's a new build. Am ringing every day, still the same answer. Other side are chasing their solicitors too, so it's not just my end. DP is leaving the mental load up to me, will ring if I ask him to but never off his own bat.
Same with anything in the house. If I don't do something, it doesn't get done. Again, DP will do stuff if I ask, but I might as well do it myself in that case.
Our 20m old still isn't talking beyond saying "ta" when he wants a drink (babbles a lot, understands when I'm asking him to do things, etc, but just doesn't actually talk). I try to do things with him every day to encourage him, but getting no guidance, only what I can find on the internet. Only mum and baby group near where we are currently is smack bang in the middle of when DS has his nap.
Add to that, lent my mum my car as hers broke down, and I barely use mine. Three weeks later and she still hasn't sorted her car out. Didn't mind at first as she needed to save the money up. Like I say, I barely use it (DP is a bus driver, so have a free bus pass and mainly use that when popping shops and things like that, but with a toddler in tow it does limit me if I want to DO anything), but the lack of option now is driving me mad. She told me Monday that she was gonna book her car in for Friday. Rings today and she 'hasn't got round to it' as she's been so busy. I know I could ask for it back, but she'd be screwed for work, so either way a bit shitty.
And the weather's gone crap. I know, it's October, but all of a sudden I'm cold to my bones and can't get warm. Suffer from arthritis so really feeling it. Heating in this dump of a house we're currently in is shite, and feels like it's making no difference. Currently sat next to the radiator, with a blanket on me, and DS sat on my lap. Got to move in a mo to cook dinner and really can't be arsed.
If you've made it to the end of my rant well done and thank you. Just needed to vent.
