The weather scuppered my day out plans yesterday .
Tesco is going downhill, minimising their lines of stock so only expensive versions seem available .
The dogs keep bringing wet feet into the house.
I work full time with 100s of people a day and when am home then Dh/ds there and I’d love a day of solitude.
Did I mention the weather!
My s.a.d has reached its peak, pisses me off that I should be used to it now, like it makes me feel the rage today .... but I can’t shake it.
I should be more grateful for what I have and do but can’t feel it at present.

I think that’s it but sure there’s more .... what’s giving you the rage today

Facebook showed me a video of amazing looking cakes, and I have no cake 😑

My husband keeps attention seeking sighing😠

Guy in the car infront of me drove into the car park and parked in the middle of 2 spaces. His car was the same as mine, just the model up and I can fit in one space no bother. Cheeky fucker! That's twice I've seen that recently. Both times men, both times no reason for them to need 2 spaces.

My tumble dryer which I haven’t had even a year has broken for the 4th time. Engineer came out last week and couldn’t fix it, he’s had to order another part and is coming back tomorrow, however there’s no guarantee it will be fixed. I’ve no idea how long Il have to wait for them to send a new one if he can’t fix it. I’ve got 4 kids and been without a dryer for nearly 2 weeks now so piles of washing are horrendous. Can only wash a few bits each day as have to hang it on a maiden which takes all day to dry. I want to just order a new one but it seems so wasteful.

It’s a hotpoint dryer by the way - the customer service is terrible, on hold for 30 mins every time you ring. Engineer said you have to have someone out to it 6-7 times before they will send a new one!! Won’t ever buy from them again.

I am aware though that this is a very first world problem! Got to keep things in perspective..

I’m trying to cook a simple meal (sausage mash and onion gravy) and I don’t know what I’m doing and I feel like a failure. I think I’ve fucked up the onion gravy and I don’t know how to fix it.

DC have done a great job of finishing things without telling us today. The milk and loo roll were most annoying but I also had what I thought was a secret stash of biscuits for myself with the ones for them in the usual snack drawer. Someone found my nice ones and ate them all. Angry

Yesterday was a terrible day had back pain again after several hospital appointments and upper back MRI Scan for lower back pain ... was lucky the DH an DD were very helpful in looking after me but so fed up with this regular problem ... Glad to wake up and be able to get shopping and cleaning done didn’t even let the weather bother me

Vicky19 · 16/02/2020 17:24

You learn as you go sure it will be fine

0ilycar · 16/02/2020 17:30

Neighbour asking if they can park in my space when they've already parked there and their car leaks oil and then another of their friends block me in is a bit annoying. Maybe not full on rage. But they do it all the time and don't usually ask. But it seems petty to say they can't when I usually have a spare space.

JustForTheTasteOfIt · 16/02/2020 17:31

My other half sniffing. I love him but he hasn't got a cold. It's constant. Misophonia is going MAD. Trying to remember how lovely he is and how very, very annoying I can be too Grin

Iwantedthat · 16/02/2020 17:33

Ooh this is fun.

People taking the piss at work, thinking I'm a soft touch. Leaving things a mess so that I can't start my own job before finishing someone else's. So glad I've booked the week off with the kids before my smile breaks or I do. I'm really easy going at work and help people out, do more than my fair share, but feel taken advantage off sometimes.

Iwantedthat · 16/02/2020 17:36

@Cheesymonster
What have you done to the gravy? You know a blender fixes alot of things (lumps??) Then cornflour if it thins too much.

The applicants for a job I have advertised- not one has managed to string a sentence together properly.

BlueHarry · 16/02/2020 17:54

SecretWitch thank you :)

No dog pawprints but our two cats (who sensibly have been sleeping all day Grin ) do like going out to bring little wet muddy pawprints over the floors .
Male cat ramps it up a bit by digging in the compost heap, bringing in live worms and poncing about on our bed with muddy feet .

Yesterday I encountered all the rude buggers who push past to get what they want rather than wait 0.8 of a second till I put it in the trolley .

I do sometimes say "I am here you know" Hmm .
But the ones who did the Shop-Cut-Up yesterday were all over 60 ( not ageist , just observation) so I seethed inwardly .

JigsawsAreInPieces · 16/02/2020 18:22

My DH has decided to follow me all over the house today. I'm even on the loo and he knocks to ask what soup to get out of the freezer for tomorrow’s lunch. Like that can't wait until I come down again - or make a decision yourself, already! Hmm

Gohackyourself · 16/02/2020 18:36

Wow some of these put my “ rages” to shame!
Maybe it’s the weather and being cooped up indoors that’s doing it to us all ( not including pregnancies and coldsGrin)
Like another poster said “ tomorrow’s another day “ I guess... I just wish I had another day off Grin
