Mine is technology Angry

First - have been trying to download a new game to PlayStation, first disk was fine. Second disk I keep getting a message when it’s 90% done ‘An error has occurred’. Thanks. Helpful.

Second - laptop is being a bastard and just not doing what I want it to. Which is RESTART for cryin out loud.

Third - MN won’t let me upload pictures for some reason so I had to do my edits, email them to myself then upload from my laptop. All because I’m so invested in a thread about floor plans Grin

Also my sons annoyed me earlier but they get a pass for now as they’ve been in bed a few hours Wink

Tradespeople who mess you around.
If they can't even be bothered to turn up when they say they will to give a quote there isn't much chance I'm going to give them the actual job. I'm just looking for a bit of reliability! If I made appointments in my job and then just didn't turn up I'd get the sack.

DH. Stays up later than me every other night of the week and wakes me up when he comes up to bed to say goodnight to me..... then grumpily heads up to bed before me tonight on the one night I try to stay up to be sociable (and I haven't work tomorrow)..... now when I come up to bed twenty mins later, light is off, he's snoring, and I can't see to take off my make up etc

Peeing. Moving positions to pee some more. Stopping to brush my teeth. Peeing again. And knowing that within 15 minutes of getting comfy in bed, I'll need to pee again.

DH and the silent treatment I've been getting from him since Wednesday
Whatever you do, don't jump to attention as soon as he decides to speak to you. This is no way to live and you need to take the time to do some hard thinking.

@lovefall, I'm literally right there with you! Every day brings worse news it seems and I can see my mini break in July drifting gently away.

My exdh still thinking he can tell me what to do 5 years after divorce Angry

@BurtonHouse

OP, where you're going wrong is expecting your tech to cooperate, when it's whole raison d'etre is to frustrate mere humans. Read a good book instead.
I’m sure you’re right but...I DON’T WANNA!!!!

I just woke up to find I had a mouthful of sick... No.idea why, now sitting up belching away.

I keep feeling like I need to yawn to catch a full breath or like I need to take a huge deep breath but can't... Also my periods are going nuts and I'm on a period every 2 weeks... I need to get a GP appointment but I'm so busy I don't know when I will get one and half of me thinks what's the point I'll get nowhere and half of me is terrified something is wrong Sad

H said yesterday everyone should have a milestone birthday recognised so should do something, when talking about my DF's 80th. For my 40th a couple of years ago he did nothing except ask what I was going to buy myself. I had a baby & cried all day. He didn't see the problem. I threw a huge party for him the year before. Brought it all back.

I can sympathise on that one. Mine doesn't seem to realise that being divorced means he doesn't get a say in my life anymore.

Had really been looking forward to HIGNFY: last week’s (with David Tennant 😍) was cancelled, had hoped it would be him. Nope, Adrian Dunbar. Great actor he may be, sparkling host no, he was bloody awful. Was so rritated.

It’s the highlight of our limited week! Really need to get a life (back) Grin

BerniesMittens · 17/04/2021 09:51

@DenisetheMenace last weeks HIGNFY was shown on Monday night (the extended version) so should be on I-player (plus YouTube)

DenisetheMenace · 17/04/2021 10:01

Thanks Berniesmittens

Can’t believe such a little thing made me so cross Confused
