    So hows your day gone?

    This morning started badly, drove 15mins to work only to forget I left my security card at home, so turned round in view of the gate to drive home & pick it up. Got back to work 20mins later only to be sent home due to a power cut! No complaints there!


    Got home went for a hair cut, managed to block my new debit card, I thought it was the same pin as the one I lost, when i called them they said the 'new' pin was sent out yesterday! doh. Second debit card didn't work, been so long since I used to I couldn't remember the pin! Two blocked cards. Go for my 3rd debit card...and I can't find it! Three cancelled cards.

    Ho hum, got some cash so got hair cut, went to post office to pick up a few packages I have treated myself too over the last week. Opening all 4 of them reveals they are _all_ either damaged or have bits missing!

    I am not having a good day today! Not having from a girl I like for a few days is only going to make the day end worse I fear!!

    Someone please make me feel better by saying they had a terrible day as well, misery loves friends!

    I have used 3 out of 5 of my sick days this year so I am in work today feeling like ****, body aches and I want to go home to bed however "sister-in-law" is coming around tonight so I have to be social.

    Re: So hows your day gone?

    Some bloody great truck has reversed into my missus car today, while it was parked....

    Leamington Spa police have no CCTV on that area, so looking like a new bonnet and wing on her car, bang goes the no claims bonus, up goes the premium for a claim and so life rolls on.

    gutted.

    Re: So hows your day gone?

    *notes to self: always check wheels for street 'mess' before taking hold and removing.

    wd40 conducts electricity, so make sure the top of a 45amp battery hasnt got a trail of it on the top. ooh sparky

    avoid saggy looking grids and divets in pavements. because big holes might suddenly apear.

    /end notes*

    theres other stuff thats happenned/happenning that i dont want to bother you with (at the moment) so i'll leave it there.

    Re: So hows your day gone?

    I have a whopping great abscess in me gob. My own dumb fault, had one there before but it went away so never went to the dentist to get the underlying problem fixed. Which also pretty much what I said last time I got the abscess. I'm an idiot, an idiot in pain.

    Hope it's at least brightened your day. I have to admit, watching idiots hurt themselves usually improves mine, just wish I wasn't the idiot

    Re: So hows your day gone?

    I`ve had a very boring day spent watching blu-rays, the commonwealth games and playing on my pc. Broke my foot at work last Thursday so i`m signed off for at least 4 weeks. I`m chomping at the bit to get back to work after only 4 days on the sick!

    I can sympathise with the cabin fever, not been able to work for a few years now, I always liked working, didn't realise quite how much til I couldn't. Got very depressed at first. If you have one, spend some time in the garden, eat lunch out there etc. Seems silly but it helps, I promise. Another good one is your mates, hop in a taxi and go round for an evening, rather than them coming to you. If you're anything like me by the end of the week you'll be sick of the sight of your own house.

    Hope your foot heals well.

    Re: So hows your day gone?

    I'm sorry but my day's been completely awesome (mostly!)

    Had the last piece of dental treatment today, all the pain is now gone (thought it was horrible having it done). Also meant I left work at 13:30 to boot.

    Had an awesome weight loss this week as well, 5.5lbs off, bringing me within 3.5lbs of my 3 stone mark! Not to mention one of the girls at aerobics class has asked to come speed dating with me, and she's pretty fun to talk to as well

    Funny thing is, while sat in the A&E department I was sitting there hoping for the news that the foot was broken, then when the nurse said it was I was quite gutted. I`m not a huge workaholic but I hate sitting around doing nothing and it leaves my work mates with exta load.

    If only i had such a thing as a garden, first floor flat with a poky little balcony. Foot actually feels fine, apart from not being able to bear my weight, but work wont have me back until im signed fit for work by my doctor, at least another 2 weeks.

    Yeah I didn't realise I'd miss it either. Glad your foot's not to bad, sounds like you'll be back in no time. Probably be sick of it again in no time too.
