Return of the Grumpy Old (and young) Women (and blokes if they want) Thread!

[Cal Soulshadow]

Look on the bright side - at least your knees get chance to recover.

[Sally Buttons]

Roof blokes couldn't come because some pikeys stole their van last night with all the ladders on it, grrrrr!

[angels_and_daemons]

Cal, think you're behind the times... I lost that job that I had to cycle for an hour each way... so my knees are recovering nicely...

This job I lost was a pants temp job that was ruining my wrists and shoulder... I'm over the moon that I don't have ot do several thausand repititions of the same movements anymore, but the money was rather helpful in paying bills, I'm back in benefit land again now

[Cal Soulshadow]

Ah OK. You do seem rather prone to RSI. Perhaps you should take up yoga or some form of stretching/flexibility-based exercise.

[angels_and_daemons]

I have exercises already for my shoulders, but yoga is certainly something I want to do... my knees are a cartilage problem so I take glucosamine sulphate...

but you're not kidding that I'm prone to these problems... I've been increasingly wondering if there is something bigger causing all these problems, but I can't afford to go private, so have no way of knowing properly... if I could go private they might look at the whole picture and it could turn out I'm not eating the right foods, or I don't do the right exercises, or I've got systemic artritis... my GP seems sympathetic, but the waiting lists are huge here

The cat was sick again... this time on the beige hall carpet! Nice. I hate the fact that our new house has carpet in practically every room. Including the bathrooms. Now whats all that about?

[Lenore]

I hate carpet in bathrooms and kitchens our last house had both yeurck. Both kids have virus and are hitting eject on both ends. nausea will just not leave me alone am absolutley shatterd daves working horrendous shifts all week so im on my own with two poorly little ones all day every day am stuck in as they cant go out of reach of the loo or the sick bowl. and i keep bursting into tears for no fecking reason.

I can heartily recommend belly dancing. It works on flexibility in the arms and shoulders as well as using the torso muscles that inevitably noone likes on themselves.

[angels_and_daemons]

Actually I'm gaining quite a bit of belly...maybe it should be taught to dance...

So now I need to find a yoga class and a belly dancing class... hmmm *wanders off to check yellow pages*

Bastards. Arse. Bottom. Pogo-stick-sucking mothers-of-sealing-wax.
And also damn and feck.

The PERFECTLY good car I was meant to buy tomorrow has been sold this evening. BAD BAD WICKED NAUGHTY EVIL car-salesperson who lulled me into a false sense of security with his reassuraces that "It'd be highly unlikely that someone will walk in this evening and pay cash - so I'll see you Thursday morning!" Could I go down to get it today? No. Why? Because the 5000 quid I was INTENDING to make up the balance won't clear to my account until midnight tonight... so that was why we said Thursday.
Guess what happened? Someone just happened to walk into the dealership, pat my car on the bonnet, smile at the bastarding car-dealer and say
"Here's a big wad of banknotes. Cheers, mate." AND HE SOLD IT TO THEM!

Bastarding bastard son-of-a-motherless-barsteward. Twice. Obviously.

[Bustywench]

its now 2 months and 5 days since I last got to see my computer...the whole situation has just drained me out so much that I have lost the energy to insult any more.

[Sally Buttons]

I've got to go to the dentist tomorrow, possibly to have a tooth out, and I'm frightened! Also, the infection which was under said tooth, now seems to have migrated to the surface and is right under the top of the gum next to that tooth and could pop at any second, argh!!!

You have to put your foot down. For instance, "half an hour of vacuuming or no Nintendo for you!"

Half an hour!?!? I could have done my whole flat by then!! You are mean Cal Soulshadow.

Bloody Irish and their wads!

[Sally Buttons]

The roof blokes came again this morning, and what does the weather do but immediately start pissing down with rain and blowing a gale, so they couldn't do the work!!!!!
My mortgage offer didn't come in today's post, grrrrrrrrrrr!

[Ebony&Markus]

Unemployed again! Yay me
