Anyone fancy writing Saturday off?

[PinkZebraStripes]

So today I have successfully said the wrong thing to someone and upset them, earned two parking tickets, and broken my laptop charger at a cost of £50.

I did however scrape together enough for a Macdonalds.

Tomorrow shall be a new day.

I've had an absolute shocker myself

I've bought myself some wine to cheer myself up 😭, waiting for dd to drop off

I was about to write mine off however I just got a FB friend request from a guy I went out with 22 years ago 👀🤯

Yes me. Saw someone I knew, had to use his name and totally forgot it. Sold two things on Vinted, for a lot of money, and one is being returned and the other is awol. To top it all off, just realised the Sunday event me & kids have been looking forward to and prepping for all week was actually today and we missed it 🤦‍♀️

Right there with you all. Was sooooo looking forward to a ‘day off’ today. Instead, I’ve spent most of it in bed with painkillers (chronic very painful condition) consoling myself with spreadsheets (weird, I know). ‘Easy’ tea of takeaway descending into bickering. But could have been far worse. Husband brought both hot water bottle and fan; and had company from a pal so taking the best of it.
But often Saturdays are hard because I really look forward to them, and then we are all broken from the week.
Some days are just rubbish. Best I find to retreat into a good book, bath and bed.

My son woke me up at half six crying for me to collect my parents dog from the kennels immediately! (I’m not due to get him for another week!) my fiancé got an extra two and a half hours in bed than me! Complained when I wanted a naughty takeaway brekkie cos we had no coffee in the house. I’ve cleaned, done several loads of washing, whilst he went out on his bike all afternoon! He is now falling asleep on the couch! Happy Saturday!!

Went to a BBQ festival and paid extra for VIP 18+ area with ample seating and posh loos (not portacabins).

It was full of kids. We complained and buggered off early. So disappointing.

Oh this is a nice idea, I've just got in from shenanigans and am running a bath, thanks for the inspiration! Having a nice soak in Epsom salts with some Rose and Geranium Bayliss and Harding. Feel blessed I can do this and grateful for the simple things.

Ooh interesting...how will you react? Maybe exchange a few messages reminiscing about the past and suss out his motives?

Midweek was my absolute shocker of a bad day. It got better!

Tomorrow is a new day.

He was an absolute walking red flag even all those years ago before red flags were a thing! I dumped him as he was a useless boyfriend - a musician drifter with no job, car or money sexy as fuck though and amazing in bed

Oh haha I see. Sounds like my ex, in similar kind of insecure industry where only a few people make it otherwise its incredibly low paid and provides no security whatsoever which would be fine if he bad any self motivation to get a job in between that paid the bills.

I messaged him a while back, after about a decade, only as he had messaged in the pandemic, and he actually apologised for being rubbish, then I forgot to reply and he blocked me 😆

I'm actually wondering if this is the same guy now 😱 He first messaged me about ten years ago apologising for the way he treated me back then. We chatted back and forth for a while, I asked him in a roundabout way if he'd ever considered he had undiagnosed ADHD and he promptly blocked me 🤨 And today, like nothing happened... friends request 🙄

Haha mine had a sob story about an ex when we first met. Although the story was that she reached out to him to be friends again, and then he decided that he didn't want to be so blocked her. I trusted that version but it does make me think, could have been told that way to make him look better!

Let's just be grateful that we can see red flags now.
