To ask for your tiny tragedies

[Thispupsgottofly]

Was looking forward to having some strawberries with some nice thick greek yoghurt I had in the fridge and it turns out I just bought boring natural yoghurt by mistake 😭

Magic mushrooms or the ordinary type? 😂

I had a day full of little heartbreaks yesterday…

I had terrible diarrhoea through the night after a very rich meal. I have never so much as farted in front of my DP in almost 15 years but was in such a hurry to get to the toilet I left the bedroom and bathroom doors open.
Despite there being a bit of distance between the rooms it sounded like my bowels had an orchestra playing and he said later he couldn’t decide if it was the right thing to get up and shut the doors and acknowledge it or ignore it.

I lost all my dignity that night and one day I might laugh but I was too embarrassed and exhausted and spent the night on the loo.

Finally fell asleep in the morning to be woken up at 8.15 by a bastard cold caller! I fell asleep again and this time the cat jumps on the bed wanting feeding. It was my day off and I could have had a lie in but ended up getting up.

In a sleep deprived daze I thought a bacon sandwich might cheer me up, we had bacon, we had bread butter and ketchup… we also had a huge thunder storm that knocked the power out.

After eating some cheese and crackers scrolling on my phone I went to put my plate in the sink that had the previous nights dishes soaking in. I was so tired I threw my phone in the sink instead of the plate. It took me a good 10 seconds of staring at the plate confused until I realised! Luckily the phone survived and is still working.

The day continued to be a total disaster so me & DP decided to go out for tea for Wetherspoons pizza (surprisingly good and cheap) except they had everything on the menu available except pizza. We picked up one from the local takeaway instead that was twice the price and a total disappointment.

I was finally ready to see the back of a shitty day at 10.30 and went to bed exhausted. I woke up as I often do nowadays at 2.30am and can’t get back to sleep despite being shattered. I tried to read a book I was finding really boring but it got interesting, I stumbled onto this thread and now I feel less alone with my troubles.

I thought my day was bad but reading the PP about wanting to stroke a lovely cat but it going inside made me realise it could have been so much worse.

I might actually get some sleep now knowing that other people suffered equal trauma 😂.

Like that poor guy in the Heinz baked beans advert.🥲

Just normal, I'm not that fancy.

Oh no this is the worst!

How has tea turned on you? I'm menopausal and have started to get a slight burning sensation on my tongue when I drink tea now

It makes my stomach burn and gives me palpitations.

my eyebrows need doing, tweezers have disappeared, don’t live near the shops.

Last week spent a day thinking about the tomato soup I was going to have for dinner, completely confident there was tomato soup in the cupboard.
There wasn't.

It was hot in my house the other night so I'd opened the back door and was sitting with a couple of candles lit.

A daddy long legs came in and before I could waft it away, it dive bombed the candle flame. It kind of made a high pitched wheeze noise.

I'm hormonal and I felt quite sad and upset for it!

My favourite chilli cherry liquorice sweets have been discontinued.

I got into the shower this morning and then realised my towel was still downstairs in the tumble dryer after being washed yesterday. We do have other towels, but they're right at the top of the airing cupboard where only my giant teenager can reach them, and he was at the gym. I had to do a naked drippy run to the kitchen to fetch mine.

Have you tried any of the aldi bars? I think some of them are pretty nice and all are £2.30 or less. Might be worth a try?

Aah no @YorkshirePuddingsGreatestFanthe poor daddy long legs😭 nothing much to report today, I have just watched the Thursday Murder Club, I wasn't going to watch it as I prefer to keep the images in my mind from when I’ve read a book. I loved Ibrahim, Joyce and Stephen. Cooper’s Chase was all wrong. I’d give it a 3.5/10.

I hope their concerts were as awesome as your user name 💜

Last autumn I bought a beautiful Halloween mug with black cats on it and then accidentally smashed it a few days later, the shop had sold out when I went to get another one

Bought a plastic kettle instead of a metal one by accident and, despite doing the whole boiling vinegar and lemon juice thing twice, it gives my tea a weird taste 😩

Put them in warm water, and close them in a warm room if you can. They'll open overnight. Have a lovely wedding!!

My macerator toilet is broken … AGAIN. I cannot find my favourite skirt anywhere 😭

I had to tell a netball player she couldn't play because her nails were too long, and I heard the usual "but I've just had them done!" Although she should have known better, her sad face broke my heart as she sat out like a naughty kid missing playtime, and watched her mates play.

I bought my daughter a vase. Gave it to my other daughter to take to her. It got broken en route. It was only £7.50 but I am disproportionately gutted that it never even made it out of the original packaging.

1. Such a waste
2. It was packaged up really well - ‘someone’ has clearly not taken good enough care of it
3. So annoying

That is actually a MAJOR tragedy, I'm afraid.

Has it fallen down the toilet?

We live very rurally so it's a long drive to get to the shops, and I needed to go to 3 places. So I've been out of the house since 7:45 this morning. As a treat, I bought myself a coffee and croissant to have when I've finished unpacking. Got all the bags in, went back to get my treat and my coffee slipped out of my hand and landed half in the car, half on the driveway and my croissant landed in the puddle. :( Also just remembered I forgot to buy dishwasher tablets. Damn it.

Ha ha! No link as far as I’m aware 😁
