aggravations

sineaterdoodah — Mon, 01 Sep 2014 05:39:28 GMT

i adore the people in my life,and i think it's returned.

but we do aggravate each other in various ways,needless to say,lol!

right now, MY aggravation is trying to get the people who "live" in my house,ANY of them ,to turn the danged lights off when they leave the room!!!

and what is so hard about putting the barriers BACK against the doors to keep the hot humid air OUT?? 3 seconds is all it takes!

it's hotter than hades here,my A/C is running close to 24/7,and that costs money. we are supposed to be conserving energy,but it's more ME than WE.

i may start starving them. it MIGHT get my point across.

sorry,i'm ranting,i know. but i think i might see other aggravation rants soon,lol!

Try charging them extra rent for the utilities.

That certainly would get the point across

And if you come back and tell me they're rent free

cos you're 'paying it forward'. More fool you.

In that case, if they won't listen, then they're not

'paying it back' - move or chuck 'em out.

Got me 'cranky pants' on today

Other than that, I only live with hubby.

We aggravate the living devil out of each other.

But hey, it has been 43 years.

It starts out with 2 hearts and a diamond.

And at some stage you're wishing for

a club and a spade"

Dunno who said that, but I like it

stawka,you made me laugh,and feel better,lol!!! it's just me and hubby who live here,but our best friend stays here on the weekend, generally. his rental house is all bills paid,so he forgets.

hubby,on the other hand,has been informed that if i find stuff NOT turned off,like his music room,or the dvd player,etc...he loses stuff like a pizza hut delivery pizza once a month. he blew that for august,he's mad,tough luck.

we have a budget. HE chose to let me handle that. HE has to deal with MY rules.

and that means turn the danged lights off!!! and put the rugs on the doors!!!

but i'll tell you,he got ME today. i left the faucet on for 15 minutes!!! i deserved a chewing too,our water bills is high...

mostly,we adore each other,after this long..he's my bestest friend along with being my hubby! 🙂

* i swear,we only want to kill each other occasionally!*

It aggravates me the way hubs never uses the bathmat. Actually kicks it aside when he exits the shower.

I always have to put it back in place whenever I go in the bathroom afterwards.

aggravations:

people who can't shut the front screen door when they go in or out...................... my dog thinks that is an invitation to exit...........and he has no road sense!

people who must reply OK to text messages just to let me know they read mine.

Socks, socks all I see is dirty socks everywhere and never a pair to be found lol

I get so annoyed, my whole tribe has a shower and then gets around the house in a towel until they are dry and then they get dressed. For the life of me I dont know why peeps cant just take their change of clothes into the bath room, dry off in there and get dressed and then come out, so then they wont leave wet footprints all over the floor urgh

Empty ice trays in the freezer.... need I say anymore.

Not necessarily anyone's fault. They evaporate.

Put the trays in ziplock bags.

Hubby and I already yelled at each other about that one.

It aggravates me so much that no matter how many times I tell the ex what can go in the recycle bin and what is normal rubbish he just doesn't remember or couldn't care less.

I once found an almost empty bag of cement mix in the recycle bin because the bag was made of brown paper.

No matter how many times I tell him that not all plastic is recyclable in our area he still throws it all in recycling. That drives me bonkers.

Totally agree. My dog is blind and will just keep right on walking.

Also I have white tiles. I also have a mat outside the doors and a mat inside the doors. Two choices folks. The third option of stepping over them is not on the table.

big lols to all!

second,i confess,i am an ice cube tray emptier,extraordinaire. i look at it and swear there are at least 6 left,hubby takes the tray out,there's one. and sometimes none.

i blame the gremlin who eats ice cubes.
