Have A Good Old Moan....

Royal Mail, normally I stick up for you as generally you aren't bad... but this week, you and the post office strikes have royally  *censored* me!  *cat* *stars*  *gun*  *say*  *nono*  -r-  :-[  ???  😮

🙁

Janine, I feel your pain! I am also getting seriously  *censored* off with all the strikes screwing up my deliveries when I'm trying to send out orders to customers!

Yeah! I sent some really urgent stuff on Saturday as I'd forgotten about the bank hols. None of the UK ones I've sent have got there yet and I'm almost certainly going to have to make two refunds. Bah.

It looks like they'll be striking next tuesday too. At least we'll have the monday though.

Sorry about the stress with Royal Mail!  🙁

The utility company is out to set a new pole for the overhead lines after yesterday's debacle with the trees... I wonder if they'll have to cut our power to change the lines over to the new pole?  I really hope not as I have a loaf of sourdough bread rising to bake... and it'll be ruined if I can't get it into the oven soon.  🙁

At a friends bbq on sunday, all the mosquitos on the planet decided to bite me. But not just on my body, on my face too, I counted 70 bites on my face, doesn't even look like a face anymore.

looong day. Had to go to a distant relatives funeral, was soo uncomfortable all day.
I came home hoping my Dr Marten boots had arrived. I left a note on my door asking them to leave any packages in the box next to my door, I checked the box and there was nothing. Got in and saw that they tried to deliver it but it needed to be signed for. .___.

now I'm sleepy, grumpy and in need of cuddles. I miss my dude.

also I have a doctors appointment tomorrow. 🙁

Oh man Royal Mail strikes! I feel your pain - I used to work in HR for all the postal workers. Generally they never know why they're even striking.

2 of my 3 ratties are poorly :-[
Lily has horrid lumps on her that ratties sadly get sometimes so they seem to be getting bigger each week, then suddenly Daisy has taken a turn for the worst. She's really thin and dozy. Keep bringing the water to her to remind her to drink. She's snuggled with the others at the moment. I don't want to separate her because I feel it would distress her more. They're all 3 so a good age for ratties, which means they spend most of their time sleeping and snuggled anyway so theyre not going to upset her really. I'd rather see them sleeping together than wandering around wondering where daisy is. I hate being a mummy to furries when it's like this!

Aww Meeshy.  🙁  I'm so sorry... *hugs*

I'm so ill 🙁 I've been poorly since tuesday and it's just getting worse, but I don't think it's anything worth seeing a doctor about as I've already got so many things wrong that it's most likely a flare up  of a few things at the same time. Urghhhhh
My entire body hurts and I'm nauseous and entirely drained of energy 🙁

Ugh, Glitter... very sorry to hear that you've been ill.  It takes its toll when it hangs on so long.  🙁  Try to get rest and plenty of fluids.  *hugs*

i'm sorry meeshy. fairy dust* to fix your fur babies <3

*fairy dust for rachel. i hope you feel better soon hun. there seems to be alot of it about lately.

i had a terrible ordeal yesterday whilst trying to  get to my tattoo app. it started thurs night. i had my phone next to me on the blanket & ryan gently took the pillow, whilst doing this my phone some hpw managed to fly across the room, into tots bath. thankfully she wasn't in it we got it out quick & popped it sgraight into a bowl of rice. *touches wood* i think it maybe salvagable. my manager took it with him tohave a look if it's ok. if not i need to claim on the insurance =(

so because of that i had to use the spare mobile. i set an alarm for the am, so i had loads of time to eat & get ready for my tattoo. the alarm didn't go off, but thankfully ryan woke me up. then i gor dressed & went to tesco to buy a meal deal & lucozade sport, so i felt ready for the upcoming pain. i got to tesco & saw my mob was 10mins behind. got to the train station & my phone was infact 10mins late. so i missed my train =( THEN i got on the wrong train(heading to london instead of away form london) got off at the next stop, which turns out there's only 1 in 5 trains stop there. this meant i would be late. the train eventually turned up. got back to my original station. was ready for the next trains, which was a 10 mins late. then 1 min before it arrived they changed platform. i ran up the stairs, fell over, cut my knee in 2 places, ruined my fav tights & tried super hard not to cry.

i was 1/2 hour late, but managed to get the whole tat done. i then bought myself some ben & jerries as a cheer up for making it through the day( i also bumped my bad knee on the store & then fell up our stairs also) went to eat it & it was all icy. looks like it's defdrosted & refrozen in the shop :'( wahhhhhhhhh

yesterday was pretty poop. lolz.

Awwwwww pippaaaaa bloody hell what a crap ordeal!!!!!!! <3 your tat is beauts thought!!! And well done for not crying, I'd've prob cried in the toilets! Xxxxxxx

i nearly let a couple of tears out on the train, but read my book & listened to marilyn manson instead =D thanks though lady =)

awwwh Pips! I would've cried my eyes out, well done for being brave! The tatt is gorgeous
