The vent thread

my washing machine died and will cost nearly $300 to repair.

My rates and rego are due

My car stopped dead in an intersection today and the garage answer was "oil is not where is supposed to be...be prepared"

not a good day

and kids were little creeps today (luckily, my own have been angels, apart from Taine whose sanwich was eaten by the dog and is screaming about it, and yelling "Goodbye everyone" and throwing himself down in a dramatic fashion)

I want my lovely, gentle daughter back! The pod people have replaced her!

I'm never going to T&T again, some lovely member of staff thought it was Ok to inform me that if her children ran around like that she'd give them a slap. And the other member of staff recommended I put her on a leash! She wasn't causing any harm, yes I was having a hard day with toddler defiance but it is NOT thier place!

My vent is I've had to change my forum name and all my details so I can't be tracked down.
I know OB is public and normally I don't mind people knowing who I am, but there are always lurkers and stalkers out there who don't seem to understand the OB environment. *sigh*

To the two people in a row that have bought an item off us on TM in the past week and then have not bothered to contact us - GRRRRRRR!!! And especially to the second guy who then told TM that we pulled out of the deal (5 days after they won the auction with still no contact) so we don't get the sucess fee refunded!! GRRRRR!!

And also a massive GRRR to stupid cars, that all of a sudden need 4 new tyres when we have no way to pay for them....except by selling items on TM which idiots then decide they don't want but don't bother to let us know....'phew' feeling better now

I'm sorry Kelly, I just giggled (and boy would I have been p*ssed if I dropped it on the floor).

Bah humbug, I swear if any more of the wives/girlfriends from a certain man's workplace try to talk to me about my private life again, I will start telling them what I think of the busybody behaviour. You're not my friend lady, it's NONE of your freaking business! In fact, you shouldn't know anyway, but your husband gossips like a woman!

haha , least thats cute ..in hindsight ! probably wasn't at the time

Oh Bex, that sucks :-( sorry they weren't more supportive of you hun .
I know its not the same , but WE are all very happy and excited for you , don't tet them drag you down , if they want to have a problem then thats their issue , stuff em .

Incidentally , my own brother didn't bother turning up to my wedding , claiming he "doesnt do churches " even tho one of our groomsmen was a satanist .

My vent..

I wish DP would be more supportive and considerate. I am studying, working and being a mum. I still do all the bills, the groceries, organize birthdays. He goes to work and comes home.

Last night i needed an hour to study, make flash cards and just go over what we learnt in class yesterday. Kylah wouldnt go to sleep and it was 9pm. He tells me its my turn to get her to sleep..

Yeah i would normally jump at it, but i feel like i am falling behind, struggling with all of this.

Blah. I will get there.

Oh and also, i go to Aussie in 22 days. My first ever holiday. I have never had a holiday, yeah i have had time off work on 'holidays' but i have never actually been on one. I am so excited inside but DP is really grumpy about me going. He is jealous, i mean i would be too, but can you not be excited and happy for me just for a day? I want to talk about it, be excited with someone..

Ooooh today I really REALLY need this thread....

Grrrr at emotionally manipulative guilt tripping mothers who make threats (emotional ones) based on percieved slights and imagined offences, threats by TEXT no less.

How DARE she a) think so little of me that I would make the slights and offences in the first place b) think its appropriate to slate me via TEXT and c) expect me to be so utterly perfect that I have to be responsible for her decisions and happiness.

ARGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Stupid effing clearblue test must have been a false positive ,my HCG levels are only 2 and for some stupid reason they want me to come back tomorrow but I don't see the point .

My back hurts , I really want a break from the kids for 10mins cos they are driving me crazy , certain people are getting on my nerves and of course DH is working til late .

Over it , ooooovvverrrr it .
