Re: Twatwaffle Tuesday 08.16.2016

  • Work is my TW, we have these special needs people that come into my shop usually in the day but they decided to come in right as I was cashing up, so I was serving another customer and they were asking me so many silly questions I ended up giving them the wrong change so we were down by £10, it's not a lot but work frown upon it, I have to practically usher the special needs people out of my shop because if I miss my bus it's a 2 hour wait for my next one ( I just managed to get it ) also the traffic on the way back was horrendous, sitting on a hot bus while trying not to have a breakdown isn't my idea of fun. Sorry this is long I just need to vent 
    So...you said "work" is your twatwaffle I'm sure to be PC, but this just comes across as you saying your TW is special needs people who somehow made you give people the wrong change, and hypothetically miss your bus which you didn't....
    Oh no I'm the only one who has time for them as I volunteer at the community center they go to, I just explain things all jumbled up  (silly preg brain) what I meant was I will be docked the missing money with a verbal warning and the fact I have to travel so far everyday is making me think is it worth all the hassle, just a generally bad day I think

  • INSURANCE IS A TWATWAFFLE TODAY.

    I just spent 2 hours on a conference call with my medical group and insurance company because it's been 2 weeks since my Dr office submitted an auth for my NST and BPP's. I'm PGAL and have GD so my doctor wants these test every week so not having the authorizations is super frustrating and nerve wracking. 

    Apparently my pcp dropped my insurance so they changed my medical group. Then they couldn't find a pcp in the medical group for whatever reason, and I was just like, "Look... I'm having a baby next month. I just want to stay with my OBGYN and get these damn tests done. Do what you need to do!" It was all a clusterfuck. It's now all worked out, just waiting to be scheduled for my tests... but DAMN! Holy twatwaffle Tuesday, insurance!

  • @Kaytee1087 I'm my own TW of the day today, too. Between the heat, discomfort, and stressing about everything I have to do, I feel like I've been so moody. When I catch myself I just get so annoyed! Here's hoping we can snap out of it!

  • Apparently I amTW today... I totally forgot with the hubbub of going back to school to pre-select and get something ready for dinner, now I don't have time because I have to leave in 10 minutes, we have to go straight to the bank to cash FI's check after I pick him up from work and it'll be after 6 before we're back home and I know he'll be starving =S Ugh, I hope he doesn't get mad!
  • I am a TW today for forgetting my wallet at home today. I pulled into Tim Hortons to grab a coffee and that's when I figured out I didn't have it. Luckily working where I bank comes in handy so I was able to grab some cash for lunch. 
  • @ibabyloveb87 Chinese Take Out! Woohoo!!!

  • @MRSCORKER I don't even care what this beef and broccoli is going to do to my cankles... GET IN MY BELLY.
  • Count me in to the TW crew! @serenaxo84 - I ate about 4lbs of prunes to ease my 5-day constipation and it finally worked yesterday (thank god) BUT the excessive gas pain last night from so much fiber was sooo intense & paired with probable dehydration from constant pooping, caused some very frightening contractions and I was very near to going to the hospital! Gas pain is really scary sometimes! I'm now going to take a pro-biotic daily and try to refrain from CHEEEEEESE!!!

    @mrskratt and @ mrscorker - so sorry you both have such TW MILs!!

    @sjo_thetwins - you are still cute! You just have EXTRA baby cute!!!

    @scostel2 - I'm in a very similar situation here at my job - its like my boss is in denial that I'm going to be leaving temporarily! I work just under the hours required to qualify for FMLA, and am still awaiting further instructions re personal leave... Oi!! And, my duties will also need to be divvied up among my coworkers, which no one wants to address!

    @avon1979 - sorry about your dog/cat conundrum! I guess I'm cruel, but it cracked me up to read how kitty is now in a cone recovering. (E-collars are the worst and I should feel bad for animals wearing them, but they are funny too!!)

    Love to all!!!!

  • my husband bc he flushes the toilet every damn time I shower. 
  • I knew I shouldn't have said anything earlier about having a good day =/
  • @von1976 I can sympathize with your pet issues. Our dogs chase the cat. The only exception is nighttime when we all sleep in the bed together. Otherwise, game on. Our big dog ripped out a pretty good chunk of kitty's fur once, and that's the closest we've gotten. We do have the guest room gated, so kitty can jump the gate to safety when he needs to, and that seems to help. Cat door to the basement is another dog-free zone. Glad your kitty is doing OK and is on the road to recovery. Hopefully this was a one-time thing.

    My husband POOps while I'm in the shower. No matter what time I would wake up to get ready, hearing the shower running is like his trigger.  Thank goodness he started a new job and has to get up before me now. :p

  • @mrszoess hopefully our next house will have an extra bathroom. For our starter home we couldn't swing it. I'd even settle for 1.5 because I'm not a big fan of cleaning said bathrooms. But some separation would be nice. You guys have got
    it figured out (besides the timely flushing) :)

  • see??? second bathrooms make happy lives! even a half bath works bc he can poop elsewhere!! 
  • @AllyTheKid what happened doll?
  • @sjo_thetwins I got my feels hurt and ended up going to bed alone for the second time in less than two weeks to sum it up.
    I feel a little better now that I've slept though. I wish it wasn't so hard for people to communicate BEFORE they let petty things build up into something bigger, then decide to open their mouths. 
  • @AllyTheKid I'm sorry you had to sleep alone without wanting to. It's the worst thing to me, not settling whatever it is and then going to sleep upset and alone. I feel for you on the bottling up emotions too. I've been on the receiving end of that a few times and it's not fun. I hope you get whatever it is squared away today. 
  • Hope all is resolved today @AllyTheKid

  • @mrszoess agreed! spare bathroom for my husband makes me a happy wife!!
  • @sjo_thetwins Thank you, I hope so too. This is so emotionally and even physically exhausting, my anxiety goes through the roof when there is tension in our relationship and it just drains me and turns me into a worthless, miserable lump.
  • Hugs @AllyTheKid! I hope things are better today!
  • @bnsmith85 Thank you, me too. I just apologized (even though I didn't effing do anything) so maybe he'll quit ignoring me now.

    He needs to get it together and quit being a jerk! @AllyTheKid... I was going to say, "or else!"... But let's face it, I can't do anything lol (nor would I #notapsycho)
  • @bnsmith85 I just typed out a big, long, whiney response then deleted because I felt dumb, but just wanted to say thank you again <3 
  • Anytime... Any you know I've had more than my fair share of long complaining responses lately bc of the dog stuff especially... So if you need to vent, I'm here for ya! 

  • I hope things get better soon @AllyTheKid. DH and I went through a rough patch this summer (because of work stress on his part) and I thought I was going to lose my mind. I usually end up apologizing just to smooth things over as well. Hang in there!
  • @AllyTheKid hang in there!

    TTC only since Dec 2015. I had some weight to get off. Been working hard in the gym for over a year.

    IT'S A BOY!!! 


  • You ladies are the best, seriously <3 
  • @Kittens22
    My MIL did the same thing to us when we told her we would be moving shortly after this baby gets here. She never asks to see her grandson and always makes excuses when we invite her to spend time with him/us and she only lives about 20 minutes away. 
  • @BluMommy I wonder if it's when they realize we will be much farther away, they start to feel guilt for the way things are, and their natural reaction to that feeling is to suddenly play the victim. Either way, it sucks. Sorry that you have that to deal with too! Does your hubby/SO take sides at all?
  • I know I'm a little late here but my Dr is being a real TW I have GD and I'm on two different insulin now, and everytime I go in for appointment he sends in two students which what ever I get it they need to learn but he doesn't even check their work! I feel like a teaching aid not a human being.
  • @Kittens22
    I lucked out and got a hubby who always has my back. His parents are super snobs and the hubs and I have pretty much always been blue collar public servants  (I was in EMS before having our son, and my DH in a LEO) so they look down their noses at us, and their relationship has always been really crappy. I don't think my poor hubby really knew what having a supportive family was like till he and I got together!
  • @AllyTheKid I'm just catching up on this thread & I'm sorry you had such a crappy day! I 100% feel the same way when there is relationship tension so I totally get it! Hoping things are better now & that you have a wonderful day today!
