O/T What are you all up to today then?

HatTrick, 9 September, 2009 at 09:44 Posted on Planning 0 15

Is anyone doing anything nice?

I think I'm allergic to work as everytime I come in this dusty office I can't stop sneezing or itching. Everyone keeps getting bitten, and one of the girls upstairs actually caught a flea jumping on her desk. Its DISGUSTING.

So is anyone having a worse day than me? lol

    I feel your pain, I am also stuck to my desk today. The difference is, I actually have loads to do but have no motivation whatsoever ?

    I've just been feeling really weddingy ever since I booked my dress appointment and don't want to do any work! I'm sure if I explained that to my manager though she would not see that as a valid excuse to do nothing ?

    Going swimming later on after work and that's about it for my exciting day, not sure if OH is coming with me though as he wants to make sure he is back well before 8pm because England are playing.

    Anyone doing anything exciting or wedding related??

    Well I know think im the most unpopular person in the office as I've just had a massive rant to the MD about the disgusting conditions we have to work in. And he had the cheek to say everyone gets bitten and no-one else complains. But I am to be reassured as someone will be going to sainsburys to buy some flea spray at lunch time. Like thats going to solve the bloody problem, the whole place needs fumigating!

    Yuk, moonpig that sounds nasty!!!! I would suggest you all go on strike until your working conditions are improved????? (then hope they dont do anything so you can have time off, yay!!!)

    I have a sort of day off today but i think oh expects me to go into office and do all his admin and other boring stuff. On top of that everything seems to be breaking down. The latest is the dishwasher and the guarantee ran out 5 days ago... sods law that.

    Would like to be doing some weddingy things but have a feeling that isn't going to happen and getting really confused and panicky about what i still have to do. moan whinge moan whinge...

    Ditto! And i love right move, OH and I wanted to move before the weddind and found a place on there that we love and really love, perfect place, perfect house, perfect everything, and so phoned our mortgage advisor as we were only tentativly (sp) looking and said we wanted to move and he said nope, we are about a little short with the money so need to wait about 6 months until the mortgage companies are giving out more, and by then this place will be gone.

    Fleas? Yuk that's awful! Surely that's a health hazzard??

    I'm at work today and have no motivation whatsoever. Keep thinking about things I need to do for the wedding and I'm debating whether to order some clothes for our mini-moon. I don't really need any more clothes....

    Yeah, im not sure if we can get a bigger mortgage, OH is going to speak to his advisor today, he has a smallish mortgage atm, would we need an extra deposit do you think if we want a much bigger one? We know we can afford the repayments but dont know if the banks will agree :-( sad times!

    dont worry,im sure you will find something when the time is right, im always seeing stuff i love and know i wont be able to get it!x
