Anyone want to have a moan about their morning?

This morning I somehow got my slipper wedged under the sofa and fell while holding DD (nearly 5m). I managed to dump her on a pile of cushions as I went down, and then carried on like a sack of potatoes, hit my knee on the wooden floor and twisted my back as I swerved to avoid the coffee table.

DH came in just as I was picking myself up, and asked me what had happened. He looked at DD, pronounced her to be fine (she was, she didn't even notice anything had happened), then sat on the sofa and proceeded to cut his toenails. I went to heat up my cuppa.

I hardly ever moan about DH because he's ace, but I could really have done with him being a bit more sympathetic! I'm a bit annoyed I haven't got a bruise on my knee to point at Angry

Anyone else had a mildly irritating morning?

Ouch, give the bruise time to come up and milk it!!

DH volunteered us to dogsit his colleague's dog for a few nights while they are on honeymoon. Fine. Except one of our two doesnt like the extra dog. DH has fucked off to work all day and I'm wrangling three very large dogs whilst trying to stop the extra one from digging up my garden (I leave the door open if it's dry), stop it shredding all the toys, breaking up occasional growling and snarling spats by my 2nd dog, take the three out for leg stretches (our two won't pee in the garden), do my back to back conferences calls and get some work done.

It's lucky it's a nice dog.

Gah.

I'm afraid an extra dog sounds like heaven to me, your post is therefore invalid! Hahaha! I'm not even allowed one. One day I'll have time and space for a border collie...

No bruise unfortunately. I'll have to dig some purple eyeshadow out. If I can remember where my makeup is after 2 years.
