Had a weird, everything gone wrong kind of day.
Off work due to recent bereavement. First I ran in to the back of a head case, no damage but they completely over reacted. Then I went to a national trust type event, massive queues to the toilets, flush not working, rude woman next in the queue very loudly exclaimed how disgusting it was that I hadn’t flushed, she must have heard me keep pressing it, I quickly ran away.
Then my lunch came and everyone else’s was lovely and mine was under cooked, I ate round the under cooked bit and mentioned it at the end, only to be met by a disgruntled chef telling me it wasn’t undercooked despite the pool of blood.
Then I rushed round at home throwing food down the kids only to get to next activity to find out it had been cancelled and i’d forgot!

Tell me your shitty day so I feel better Grin

Yanbu. Ive got an exam tomorrow so today was fun. Not.
I have 2 exams the day after!

I locked myself out on the afternoon school run. Had to get schoolchildren looked after while I walked the long walk to doc for preschooler jabs. Preschooler fell asleep in pushchair and who on earth wants to be woken by a needle being stuck in your arms.

And then walk a long walk home in the rain.

What fun

I had purse stitches removed today. The nurse lied to me. I asked her if it would be sore and she said no, pulled off the large dressing and then she made a funny noise and said actually it was going to hurt due to the type of stitches. Then blood squirted or after she hurt me.

Afterwards my treat of a kfc didn’t happen as it was closed. :(

Lighthearted of course, my wound looks good to be fair and my ass is thankful I didn’t get the kfc :)

The nurse was lovely, I’m aware I sound about 9 lol.

My ex partner moved out. Emotionally exhausting.

Singlenotsingle · 18/03/2019 22:00

I had to book an MOT for my car. I expect it'll cost a fortune.
I ate a slice of carrot cake in M&S (despite my better judgement)!
Then this evening the dog kept licking my neck and wouldn't stop. Turned out I'd dropped a bit of chocolate and it'd melted all over my top and dressing gown. The diet's gone completely to pot today.

Not as bad as yours, OP. I'll try harder tomorrow!

NoCanoe · 18/03/2019 22:01

That does sound shite At Sea.

Can't compete. My day crap, but not quite as bad as that.

I had the first ever reply to an email from my Ex-husband regarding my DD we've been separated over a year. Replying was harder than I ever imagined it to be (he left me with PTSD)

edwinbear · 18/03/2019 22:02

I had a falling out with DD’s music teacher over her excluding her once again from a choir festival that all her fellow choristers have been selected for. She’s only in ‘standard’ choir apparently and this festival is for ‘elite’. They are 6/7 and to be frank, all tone deaf.

I felt better once I told her we were going to cut our losses with choir as I couldn’t see it was offering any value. Which made me sound like a dick but I’m past caring.

I have a stomach bug with diarrhoea. In a literal sense, my day has probably been shittier.

thebeesknees123 · 18/03/2019 22:17

My teenager had a massive meltdown, lasting 2 hours because the teavher made her redo her homework, which took 2 hours the first time. She had to go to an activity I'd paid for so I ended up writing the teacher a note to stop the screaming and throwing things

chockaholic72 · 18/03/2019 22:17

Day off work so went to the Trafford Centre to get a birthday present for someone. Got my period. Not a "better nip to Boots" period, more of a perimenopausal "shitINeedToGetOutOfHereAndPutAllMyClothesInTheWashingMachine" period. I flooded and had to drive home sat on a Bag For Life :-(

Wantmyflipflops · 18/03/2019 22:21

I turned my head for 5 seconds to get a nappy and cream...my DD1(4) opened my DD2 (10 weeks) nappy...DD2 put her foot in a huge pool of poop...then in front of my eyes slid said foot across DD1 face...actually her mouth. I shouted code brown and DH ran in and tripped over the dog. DDs were both thoroughly bathed and cleaned but I did have to chuckle at DD1 sitting on the couch after work a baby wipe and wiping her face. She told me it was the worst day ever lol.

WhoWants2Know · 18/03/2019 22:21

Outing, but...

I took the first dose of a new medication at bedtime last night. Apparently it doesn't suit me. I know this because I woke at 3 with apocalyptic diarrhoea, followed swiftly by copious vomiting. So copious that when my kids woke, I couldn't stand or move or stop vomiting long enough to complete a sentence. Kids called ex, ex called 111, 111 sent paramedics who escorted my vomit covered self to hospital in an ambulance.

And it was during the school run, so all the parents got to see me in my pjs, covered in sick. The only way it could have been shitter is if I trod in dog poo on the way out the front door.

Eatmycheese · 18/03/2019 22:23

Threw up in the middle of the night
Had a massive row with my mother
Dropped the birthday cake I’d made for our son’s birthday tomorrow
Pranged my car
Left three lines full of washing out in the rain: forgot about them

Tomorrow is another day

Ferrovairio · 18/03/2019 22:23

The agency I work for announced its closure, and then I found out that several family members are caught up in the devastation due to the cyclone/ flooding in Mozambique, and haven’t been heard from since Thursday. Sad

niceredjumper · 18/03/2019 22:24

Was told today I'm being made redundant...that's the second time in nine months. Rubbish day.

tobee · 18/03/2019 22:24

Oh the joy of bags for life car seat covers for that purpose!

Commiserate choc.Cake

tobee · 18/03/2019 22:26

Commiserate? Commiserations

S1naidSucks · 18/03/2019 22:28

Ruralretreating me too, plus a urine infection AND a fucking cold sore. My cold sores cause pain up the side of my face, eye and roof of my mouth.

Can you tell my body does not react well to stress? 😬

ladyvimes · 18/03/2019 22:30

Been in bed all day with a massive migraine and various other horrid symptoms.
I feel your pain.
At least things can only get better.
Touch wood!

BlackeyedGruesome · 18/03/2019 22:33

Flowers for all.

Ferrovairio · 18/03/2019 22:35

Nice red jumper. That’s terrible. Redundancy can be so depressing. Really sorry to hear that it has happened again to you 🙁

Thanks Blackeyed.

I had surgery this morning , I’m trapped in my hospital bed -despite being told I needed to be up and in a chair within 5 hours- I’ve hurt myself trying to, unsuccessfully, lower the bed rails so I could get out myself, my cannula hurts, my catheter stings, my surgery site (and related insides) hurt, my water jug is empty and I’m really thirsty and they haven’t brought my painkillers yet and they said they would bring them ages ago.

Poor overworked staff deserve a medal dealing with their workload and I imagine they are all having a shitty day too!
