zircon Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Monday - The Washing machine blew up - now have damp dirty washing in a black bag ! Tuesday - Cannot find receipt for said washing machine, (but as I have the instruction book they will honour the 5 year parts warranty - expect a £96 bill for labour) Machine is only (exactly) 2 years old Kettle blows up Wednesday - Smell of damp dirty washing is not a smell that Johnson & Johnson are expected to take up. Wii ceases to function - no power - have got receipt but too late to phone to sort out. Thursday - Dash has a prolapse. Rushing around before work to "sort her out". She is very very peaky, cleaned her up and removed the softy that was mostly out ! . Hubby to keep an eye on her all day, her best friend Dot is really worried, she is just following her around. I have a 2 hour meeting across town, which is bound to bore the pants off ! and I forgot to leave the kids the money to pay for their hair cut tonight ! My PMT has subsided/develeoped into full blown tears.....I think I need a holiday (but wouldn't go because of Dash !) Anybody got any hugs ?

n2hec Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 And I thought my week was bad. Puts things in to perspective. Things can only get better..... Keep smiling, I'm sure it'll all be OK by the weekend. Hugs on their way...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura & CTB Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Sending hugs from me too - sit down with a glass of something nice later and I hope things improve for you soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjules Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Oh you poor thing, what a terrible time. Hope you little chook is better soon. It's just the pits when appliances break down, especially a washing machine - when you have a family you rely on it so much. Have a virtual hug from me and have a glass or two of wine tonight. It won't fix anything, but you won't care so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamebird Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 I was going to say "look on the positive side - you should be congratulating yourself on how well you coped with each crisis and you can now pass on your knowledge of prolapses to other chicken owners" - but to hell with that I'll just send big hugs instead and a bottle of wine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zircon Posted April 17, 2008 Author Share Posted April 17, 2008 Update: Daughter sent home from school ill Meeting was 3 hours not 2 and was a blast (not!) The Washing machine is repaired. Dash is a little perkier, having spent the morning in the utility room and is now having a good old barge at the new hens. Things are looking up !!!!

chelsea Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 as sure as "eggs is eggs" if one appliance goes wrong another 2 appliances will join it! sorry about the time you are having, and hope Dash gets over her prolapse. I find sitting in the sunshine watching my girls for half an hour or so eases my stresses! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
