Stupid tedious day and its only 3,30pm

Recommended Posts

It's only 3.30pm and I'm already eyeing up the brandy bottle :) because everything has gone wrong :evil: First off the kettle broke :evil: then I did a load of dark washing and 'somebody' left a tissue in a pocket so everything is covered in those nasty little bits. Then I did another load and the machine has now decided not to spin, so I have a machine full of soaking clothes :cry:

I suspect the w.machine has gone kaput which is a total disaster with a messy toddler and a mud collecting landscape gardner living in the house :( It goes on....I put the dishwasher on didn't notice it needed salt refilled and when I came to empty it all the mugs are still tea stained and everything looks murky, I wash the whole lot up again by hand because I feel guilty using the w.u.machine anyway :roll: Decided I needed to something which doesn't use electricity so cleaned out my chickens which is always enjoyable BUT I can't make the droppings tray lock back, dunno why maybe it's broken? I am sure DH can have a go at fixing these things but he's gone out and has switched his mobile phone off :evil: For a little light relief I did the Omlet Quiz and managed to score a big fat zero because I knew nothing of the subject. :(:(

 

What else is going to go wrong today :?:

Oh, dear Tessa, sounds like a disaster of a day :shock:

Look on the bright side, things can only get better from here :lol::lol::lol:

 

I do sympathise, my day yesterday was a catalogue of disasters........quite funny now 24 hours after the events, but not at all funny at the time :wink::lol::lol::lol::lol: But today's a brilliant day, finished work for a week, got a surprise weekend break looming, hubby's back in my good books, and I'm off out to see a friend now :D

 

Put your feet up, save the brandy bottle for later, and don't touch any more domestic appliances for today :wink:

 

Oh, and I reckon you'll do loads better on the quiz tomorrow.............I predict a 9/10 day for you then 8)

Disasters do come in threes don't they.

 

My boiler broke yesterday....luckily I was able to stay in today and the chap came to fix in. (That is why I've been on the forum a lot)

 

The pull cord on of switch thingy broke last night in the down stairs loo so that has been out of action. A friend who is an electrician sent one of his chaps round so that is sorted.

 

Last night one of the Sky boxes broke...that can't be fixed till Sunday.

Oh dear..... here's my list

Our central heating pump went on Sunday morning. We therefore have no hot water- the immersion heater doesn't work, & hasn't since we moved here 8 years ago. We are going to my parents house literally down the road for baths. It takes 3 boils of the kettle to wash up. The gas fire is constantly on. Ethan is asleep now in my bed with an earache, & I won't even begin to tell you about my current health problem.

But.... the gas man is coming to put a new pump in on Saturday afternoon :D My washing machine is still working, & my drier- so I can have clean clothes, I have got used to very brief cold morning showers (we have a mixer tap, not an electric shower) & our church family is currently upholding Stuart & myself & the boys in prayer for my health problem.

The best bit is that as a Christian I am not going through any of this alone, I am comforted by the knowledge that my Saviour Jesus Christ is going through these dark days with me, & is by my side.

wow, what a unfortunate eventful day....hope your evening is quiet.

 

Today for me -

 

I have always wanted an indoor fire - tonight I caught my payslips and mortgage forms alight when we were filling the mortgage form by a scented candle on the kitchen table!! :roll: hubby was trying to blow it out :roll: which only made the matter worse and they all went up in a puff of smoke. We now have to wait another week for the bank to send out a new set!!
