A place to rant about things that wind you up ( keep it clean lol)

Went downstairs to get myself a drink, get goblins some lettuce (because it's all that's in the fridge), get myself some fabric.
Get empty cans into recycling, decide to do some washing because I keep forgetting and the goblins need their bedding.
Can't find the brush to brush down the fleece anywhere. Get cranky. And loud. And repeatedly saying "where the (word) is the (word)ing thing".
Finally find brush underneath the sofa(?). Brush down fleece. Put fleece in machine. Add detergent and cleanser.
Washing machine refuses to start. Try a different cycle. Still refuses to start.
Open machine door. Slam it closed in a temper. Oh, the machine's running now. Great. But I didn't hear it lock the door?
Decide to ignore that thought. Wash hands. Get lettuce. Take lettuce and Coke upstairs. Leave Coke upstairs to come back for fabric. Needed two hands free otherwise.
Get downstairs. Why tf did I bring the Coke back down? Grumble.
Have to switch on light to see fabric properly. Also grumble.
Pick one. Get back upstairs. Nope, left the Coke can downstairs. Grumble more.
Get back upstairs with fabric and Coke. Then realise my PC alarm is going off. 1pm. Meds time. Guess where my meds are? Yup. Kitchen. GRUMBLE.

... :flag: :))
 
Ah we can visualise that….. down then up, then down and up, then down and up and finally down and up ! You must have done a load of steps doing that !
You’ll need to rest now 😂
 
Seizures! 😡 Felt awful for 4 days and still feeling rather poo like I’ve ran a marathon or two, bit my tongue so badly and it blooming hurts! 😣😣
A day off today so 🤞 I get seizure-free days all week now so I can get to the Potteries Fair on Saturday, or I’ll be so mega disappointed! Send no-seizure vibes this way please guys! :) :hug:

Reactions aren’t working for me, so I’m going to actually say that I’m sorry you’re suffering, and I hope you get to go to the show. :hug:

Thanks a lot Jackie and OH and gorgeous girlies :):love: Really hope so, I’m keeping everything crossed!
 
Thanks a lot @VickiA, I’ve popped out to see family today (that I should’ve seen a fortnight ago!) but a couple of days in bed now and doing as little as possible other than beasty duties! I will get there on Saturday!
Thank god for (disgusting!) antiseptic mouthwash or my mouth would be feeling a lot worse I think, I must bite with such force! 😣 Thank you from my tongue! :))

Thanks so much @Qualcast&Flymo, really hope to see you there! :) And thanks again for the offer of a lift the other day, so kind of you :hug:
 
My husband usually gets two weeks off at October half term. We like to go away for a few days during the second week as there’s not many kids, it’s quieter and cheaper than going away during regular school holidays. Just found out that his school are now scrapping the second week and giving them inset days instead. To say I’m disappointed is an under statement. The joys of being married to a teacher…
 
I nearly always have my bedroom window open. I prefer it that way when I vape and I'll take being cold over a hazy room, if I can. Until today there's been a bookcase in front of that window for a while. And before that, well I didn't vape in here so I didn't have an open window.

Sadly today the weather's a bit on the "gonna make you regret the window choice" side so I went earlier to close it. For all my complaints about the single glazing it doesn't leak when it's open, maybe if I had it right open and the rain was at the right angle but otherwise, no. So when I closed it today, and saw a puddle along the wood on the bottom pane, I thought that was odd. Must've come through when I closed the window. So I mopped it up, and put the kitchen roll in the bin.

And looked back, and there's more water. Oh. So that's not come from opening and closing the window, then. Because that's only one specific area of the windowsill, and it keeps. Coming. Back.

Thankfully none of the other 3 windows has an issue, but I can just see the letting agents faces when they hear the windows still aren't fit for purpose. I think it's been doing this for a while, I kept finding little black speckles on the sill but it wasn't termites and with the bookcase or whatever in the way I didn't really poke around. The black speckles were wood - lifted from the frame with the water and deposited on the sill. 🤷‍♂️

The weather! I wish it would make up it's mind. It was lovely early on so I washed lots of piggie fleece and mats. Spent the day playing Hokey Cokey with it between heavy showers and sunshine.

It was chucking it down here overnight but been lovely all day and I've got my piggy washing dry. (You can go off people can't you?)

I know the feeling - we had showers today though I thought the forecast said it would be dry. Luckily I didn't have any washing out, I'm not sure it would get enough direct sun to dry this time of year.

Minor rant, more a moan really. I had my Covid and Flu jabs yesterday afternoon, today I'm feeling annoyingly tired and lethargic. Hope I'm back to normal tomorrow, I hate feeling under the weather. Still it's better than the alternative ...😷🤒🤧

Hope you feel better soon. 🤗

That foul humanoid has stuck me in this blinking prison twice today! Fair enough the grub was nice and away from Gigi’s thieving paws, but when that had gone I should’ve been put back when I demanded and chewed on the sides dammit! I tried to give it an angry stare but apparently that makes me look cute too, stoopid hairless old bag! :gd: Why she wants to play with my peepee I don’t know!? 🙄

So I’m off to the vets in the morning now by the looks of it, the humanoid says my lymph nodes are big and swollen again and there’s blood in my wee, so she thinks my kidneys are playing up like in June and I’m having a bladder flare, whatever that means!

Humanoid - :doh::doh::doh:
 
I was very excited that my fabric to work on my next two projects was due to arrive today judging by the email from royal mail. Got very excited when 30 mins into the time slot the doorbell went, I interrupted my meeting and... It was the window cleaners 🙄

Royal Mail didn't deliver today at all. I don't know why they have a system that gives a day and a time slot if it's just a guide?

I've done this before >.> Boo to no new fabric :td:
 
I have a rant about Royal Mail too @Lady Kelly.

I ordered some Hay Cookies from Hyperdrug (just as well it wasn't urgent medication), got an email yesterday and today from Royal Mail saying that they were going to be delivered today. I went out for about 10 minutes and got a notification saying that they had been delivered. Got home, no Hay Cookies. Then I got a notification that nobody was in so that they Hay Cookies HADN'T been delivered. So I was a bit confused. Then I looked up the tracking information only to find that they had delivered it to a front door I didn't recognise. It had the right number on it but it certainly wasn't my front door! I phoned up Hyperdrug and spoke to a very nice young lady who looked into it and told me that according to the Royal Mail website it had been returned to sender and was at a Sorting Office 10 miles away. She then offered to send me some new Hay Cookies but this time by DPD and I'll have them by Monday.

It's not as if my address is difficult to find. The parcel was addressed correctly with the correct postcode.

I mean that's shocking. Not sure how Royal Mail can compete anymore, I mean their service is getting worse than evri on a lot of occasions but they charge a lot more
