What are you being unreasonable about today?

I’m grumpy because the house won’t de-Christmas itself, I have too much underwear for my drawers (pun unintentional), I’m fat and my house is full of chocolate and biscuits that I bought and my guests didn’t eat.

I’m fully aware that I’m being unreasonable about all of this. Anyone else joining me in the unreasonable corner today?

Put back out Christmas morning, so totally failed to do all the things I've been putting off all year that I was going to do while on hols.

Didn't sleep last night cos the poxy wind seemed to spend the whole night blowing the recycling bins up and down the path directly under bedroom window.

Back in work for the first time since Christmas eve, bosses spent half the day moaning about why this, that, and the other hadn't been done. Uh.... I've not even been there?? Confused

Now sulking cos doing dry January and can't even have a bottle glass of wine. Angry

On the plus side, this thread has significantly improved my day Grin

I'm seriously pissed off today. My two girls didn't sleep last night, 2 and 15 month. So I'm tired, because previous night before last night I didn't sleep either because 15 month old wouldn't stop crying because of her teeth and she had a stomach ache, I think anyway. So today I'm utterly done in, I'm emotional anyway because that time of month is coming any day now, my partner is doing a tip run with all the boxes from presents, etc! And to top it all of my kids are behaving so badly, not listening to me, just being terrors and I just can't deal with it today.
Wanna hide under at duvet and sleep till the next life time. Sad

I'm being unreasonable because DP put his back out and isn't magically curing himself overnight. Literally all he has done since Boxing Day is sit on his arse on his new tablet which I got him for Christmas, doh! and I'm sooooooo bored of playing nurse!

On the plus side, the house is immaculate and I've finally reached the bottom of my washing basket but it's rainy, windy and miserable and I just want to go out and sit in a cosy country pub and enjoy my last weekend before I go back to work!

I got grumpy cos I took dd7 into a shop selling pink plastic tat and then she had the nerve to actually want the pink plastic tat which I had instantly decided we had enough of as soon as I saw it.

I felt so guilty for dragging her out of the shop and her general lack of complaining about it, that I took her to a book shop and instead bought her a book 5 books and tore up the receipt

so now I’m grumpy cos I’m conflicted between budgets and books being a ‘good thing’.

Also. Dry Jan can fuck off. I hate you Jan.

I am grumpy because my chest infection isn’t clearing off or improving, and the GP prescribed antibiotics are currently making me feel far worse.

Also.... House still needs “de-christmasing” and I feel too ill to do it.

Public transport is my grump today. Also spin classes at the budget gym I'm at - said class is not in a private room therefore other gym users get to hear the instructor bellowing like an ox at the spinners whilst forcing booming music upon us non spinners. It's so loud you hear it through your own headphones.

Grump grump

I need it to be 6.30am now as I am finally ready to face all of the things I have to and want to get done today.

I'm cross with @YouCantArgueWithStupid because she got my hopes up that I might be about to go into labour, and I haven't

I'm really pissed off with being ill, still in pain and not being able to drink. I'd wanted to have a few days before going back to work where I felt OK enough to do some cleaning.. that's not gonna happen.
I haven't had a bloody Christmas this year.
The fridge is still stuffed to the gills with leftovers.
The crappy loo seat keeps shifting.
My tea has gone cold.

Today it is my dd helping me take decorations down. She means well but gets distracted and knocks things over
