Work bloody stressful this week. I don't tend to drink mid-week and last night was a G&T and tonight I'm sinking the Adnam's.

Dog a mortal embarrassment: took her out for a spot of training and she ignored me, ran around and ate cow shit in front of an audience of thoroughly entertained pensioners.

Forgot the birthday of an elderly relative who probably won't be around for too many more.

So not terrible, just a bit shit.

Shitty here too. Health, friends, children. Ugh.

justinhawkinsnavalfluff · 15/05/2019 19:44

Spent over £1000 to get car through MOT, kids are both doing SATS and I can't breathe due to a summer cold. Sad

Have had two separate GP appointments this week so far, when previously it's been months before I could get one.

Been to the vets twice, got to go again on Friday.

Was just getting over last Friday's incident with DDs teacher at pick up when today the head teacher who I've only previously met and spoken to once, had the worst goddamned go at me (don't even get me started on this but if any of the parents of my DDs year group who I've happened to speak to over this last week are on Mumsnet, it might be obvious who I am -hi).

I'm having repeated migraines at the moment, which I only found out a few weeks ago were migraines, I've been passing them off as bastarding headaches for most of my life and getting on with it unless I can't walk or am being sick.

Missed a parcel by seconds. Postie saw me arrive at the front door but he didn't get back out of his van. Didn't even drive off straight away. Gah.

And I stress-ate a whole packet of sliced chorizo last night and haven't been able to shake off the bitter end of the garlic taste, since. It's at the back of my throat!

I cba to write the rest. I hate this week.

MT2017 · 15/05/2019 19:56

Hayfever.

No wine.

;(

Summerorjustmaybe · 15/05/2019 20:01

Ddog had a major episode, 6 weeks after ££££ and major op. Tests not showing what's happening as yet. More test, more £££££. Hours being reduced at one of my jobs, ds's train cancelled so he is going to be very late back, dgs has a mysterious rash, weeds won't die in my allotment!!
And it's only Wednesday ffs!!

BiBiBirdie · 15/05/2019 20:01

My ds has lost his third sweatshirt of the school year. He leaves in July so am I fuck buying replacements.
DH moaned at me cos I told him off and pointed out I've told him not to dump stuff and run. He lost his sisters Hype coat in November, he only borrowed it for the day as his had a rip in, she hadn't worn it yet. So I'm sick of it.
Now DH is sulking as I told him to get stuffed.
Oh and AF is here, late as usual, I'm dizzy and achey and Nitin the mood for div males.
And the neighbors keep having half the town over when they break fast, which is nice for them, but what is irritating is they all let their kids, some very little, run up and down the street until silly o'clock, then when they leave they all beep their car horns to say bye. Can't say anything though cos it's not worth the grief. I just want to bloody sleep.

*not in

CreekyBeaky · 15/05/2019 20:31

Got accused by a good friend today of saying awful things behind his back. I obvs didn’t do that and he is taking someone he barely knows (but fancies) word over mine after 10 years of friendship.

Rowing with DH about TTC no2 for 18 months with no joy. DH refuses to seek help as a couple he knows went down that road and £70,000 later didnt conceive and it’s tore them apart.

Neighbourhood kids screaming in the street until stupid o’clock, throwing fizzy pop over cars and stones (one which has broken DH windscreen). No point talking to their parents as we regularly see the kids being locked out of the house and screamed at to get out because their parents want peace. House is on the market, I’m only doing viewings during school hours 😬

MarieIVanArkleStinks · 15/05/2019 20:40

My all-time favourite actress and childhood idol, Doris Day, died on Monday. OK so the good woman was almost a hundred years old, but my heart still sank when it happened. My darling mum, now long since dead, used to watch Doris Day seasons with me when I was a kid and she (Day) reminds me of some rare occasions in early life when I felt safe. I know she was a stranger and I'm being silly, but it's really made me sad.

Yesterday I smashed and broke my back tooth, no doubt resulting in a dentistry bill of several hundred £.

In the scheme of things these are trivial. And some of these threads have previously made me count my many blessings, and feel guilty for sweating the small stuff.

Flowers to everyone experiencing a shitty w/c 13 May!

AnnaSteen · 15/05/2019 21:08

Having the worst week.

Don’t like my job as I’m not very good at it and it doesn’t come easy (very mathsy). One project that I always felt I did well and kept me going through the awful rest of it - found out today I’ve been doing it totally wrong for the past 4 YEARS

Follow up appointment with clinic to discuss why our IVF didn’t work / if we can try again in the morning

Took the day off to take in whatever the news is and relax but now I’m crying over work

Been about 2 stone over weight and unhappy about it for ages - started diet on Monday and eating super healthy - ended up eating tons of junk today and now full of self loathing

Had a moan about how unfair everything was to DH and now he’s annoyed with me (he never moans he just gets ok with stuff) and gone outside.

FML

ScreamingLadySutch · 15/05/2019 21:10

What is AF as in AF a week early?

SneakyGremlins · 15/05/2019 21:14

Had a fevery/sore throat/sweaty/vertigo type illness all this week. Woke up and immediately vomited two mornings in a row Hmm

CastleCrasher · 15/05/2019 21:18

Af- aunt Flo - period!

ThisIsTheEndgame · 15/05/2019 21:19

DH keeps going to sleep in the early evenings so I never get to spend any time with him.

Last week's shitty cold has turned into this week's shitty chest infection and now I have stabby lung pains.

Too much month left at the end of my pay!

Winchestermom35 · 15/05/2019 21:25

.Work stress.

Shark week.

My youngest had his ehcp denied. Because his nursery did a shitty job. So now it looks like my autistic son has to start school in September with absolutely no support in place as it’s “too late to arrange”.

*No point talking to their parents as we regularly see the kids being locked out of the house and screamed at to get out because their parents want peace.

Maybe don’t talk to the parents but please talk to SS!!!!!! ShockSad

OhWhatFuckeryIsThisNow · 15/05/2019 21:31

Preach sister. An absolute twat. Two shitty things have happened on my watch at work, (not me, but kids taking advantage of a situation that could have got me sacked) Exam season and its various madnesses are upon us. Two teachers on long term suck and not allowed to get supply.

YahBasic · 15/05/2019 21:33

Head of our department is leaving, putting the future of our team in jeopardy.

We were going to start TTC in six months - now I might be out of a job and have to wait longer before we try.

ZippyBungleandGeorge · 15/05/2019 21:35

I'm on maternity leave, whole house now has D&V , and it looks like I might not have a job to go back to

Ineedamanipedi · 15/05/2019 21:36

Agree with you re.Doris Day marielvanarkel I loved watching her films as a kid she seemed so funny and original and that voice! She was one of the greats.

ZippyBungleandGeorge · 15/05/2019 21:37

Oh and water started leaving through the dining room ceiling

GabsAlot · 15/05/2019 21:45

i loved doris day too i know its not massive shock but she was great

Moneypenny007 · 15/05/2019 21:45

I'm pretty sure I had an ovarian cyst burst last week. This has caused a serious disruption to AF. I'm now hormonal as hell...

My sciatica isn't going away and I'm fed up of being in pain.
I've an exam on Saturday and I haven't studied.
My site agent is a complete dd and I'm considering leaving as a result. He is constantly going through my work and not everyone else's. I wouldn't mind if he was actually qualified in the same job I am. Gonna hand in my notice on Friday to my actual boss and see the shit fly.

I was so angry I came home and mopped the floors and washed the windows...

I also ate a big dirty Chinese and some Easter egg..... I'm supposed to be shredding!!!

youarenotkiddingme · 15/05/2019 21:52

Ds is doing work experience.

He's doing amazingly by all accounts and I'm surprised at all the things he's doing.

However he's autistic and I think it's taking all his reserves as he's been an absolute shit at home 🙄
