While out looking at flooring for the house renovations the other week, the car tyre on my mom’s car went flat.

No biggie right?

Well wrong! The nut bolts were too tight so we couldn’t get them off to change it. Mom then calls her insurance company as she has breakdown service with them to get them to come out to us.

This is when the problems start!

Unknowingly, my mom’s europe wide breakdown coverage was canceled in 2008 without prior knowledge. It is supposed to carry on automatically yearly, but now they are saying its void. Mom was so pissed off, we were stuck in a shopping car park in the pouring rain and a flat tyre! Mom shouted down the phone and said once her car insurance was up in October, she’ll be looking elsewhere!

We then call my brother & ask him to come rescue us, which he does 30 mins later. In the meantime while waiting, mom calls up The AA breakdown service which she pays for but on my brother’s car. She explains the situation to them and they quickly change the breakdown coverage into joint names (paying extra) so that it can be used on any car and they organized someone to be out within the hour.

My brother then arrives and manages to get the nuts off after several attempts, jacks the car up, takes off the flat tyre, puts the spare tyre on the car, tightens it all back up…. Then The AA guy turns up lol! The AA guy then checks to see if the nuts are tight enough and pumps the tyre with some air and after signing paperwork sets us on our way…. To a garage to buy new tyres!

Moral of the story?

Yay to brothers who can change tyre’s
Yay to The AA for coming out fast
Boo to Norwich Union Insurance Company!

At the end of January the power port of my laptop broke so I put it into a shop to fix, 2 weeks later I got it back & had to pay £115 for it as I had to get a new charger along with it!

I’ve now had the laptop back for 2 weeks & it’s broken again after the guy said he fixed it & it won’t happen again!

I’m pissed off & have to wait until Monday to go back to the shop & demand them to fix it for free!

& they better *grrr*

Update: Just took it back, it’s still under the warranty they gave so they’ll have a look again & see what’s up. I just hope they don’t come back now & say that there is another problem!

I’ve had a migrane for 14 hours now! I’ve tried sleeping, drinking lot of water, lying down in a darkened room, eating…. but nothing worked and to make matters worse, I had no pain killer at home & by the time I figured that out, the pharmacy was closed!

I woke up with the migrane at 10am and now it’s 12:30am and it’s not as bad as it has been all day, I don’t feel that my eyeballs are going to pop outta my head but I still feel all weird!

I’m going to go back to sleep now & see how I feel when I wake up

*screams at the top of her lungs* :grr:

For nearly 48 hours my blog has decided to battle a bad case of PMS & take forever to load resulting in no one really being able to access my blog! I have no clue why >.<

I thought it was because of the changes I've made over the past week or so, but I switched to a blank default theme & that still won’t load therefore it’s not the theme or the plugin’s I use. The weird thing is, I can access the dashboard/admin area and type this post but viewing the theme (any theme) won’t work *cries*

It’s not a server problem (at least I don’t think so) because I host Sou’s blog and it’s working perfectly, same with my forum & a few sub-domain’s I’m working on in the background.

Therefore, I’m clueless….

Update: Finally it’s up after a few days of downtime & I’ve jazzed it up a little! God I’ve missed this place!

Just when I was going to get into bed, dearest little doggy decides to vomit on the duvet cover!

I run to get a cloth to clean it all up & flush it down the toilet when I start heeving and proceed to vomit as well after seeing/smelling other vomit!

I shouted for my mom to get me water & she burst out laughing I’m now in bed feeling queezy & the dog is snoring his head off like nothing happened!

No more little treats for him!

Really… I do! I hate the fact my lips get all chapped up, your skin gets ultra dry, your hair looks so miserable, you freeze to death like an ice cube & you slide all over the place from ice :grr:

Recently the weather has been terrible, I really don’t remember it being this cold at the same time last year! It’s so bad that I’ve resorted to keeping the heating on in my apartment 24/7 (something I never do) and covering myself with a huge ass blanket for extra warmth while sitting on the sofa, but still I’m freezing >.<

Last week, the temperature dropped to -5°c while at my grandfather’s mom’s house, we were both shivering like mad, turned the heating up & drank some hot chocolate but when going to bed it was so bad I had to sleep with socks on, plus little doggy dog was curled up next to me for extra warmth, so he was like a mini hot water bottle

Anyhooo, I don't think I have anything else to bitch about, the temperature is currently 7°c and raining. Well I could start bitching about how my favourite shoes got all wet this afternoon while out shopping with my parents (dad is back in town until Monday ), my poor shoes... I hope they survive!

I'll leave you all with pictures taken last week with ice all over the place *shiver*

Oh yes it is!

So I went to the doctors with mom, still coughing my guts up in the waiting room, he was 20 mins behind with his appointments, damn idiot!

Eventually we go in & I couldn’t speak to tell him what’s wrong, so mom explains that I’m coughing green phelgm, sometimes blood, hard to breathe and she thinks I have bronchitis again

The doctor said nothing

He took his little scope thing and placed it on my back in various places and I breathed as best I could without going into a coughing fit

He goes back to his chair, asks if I’m allergic to anything & prints off a prescription. He doesn’t mention his thoughts on what I’ve got, why I’m getting this alot, not even what the pills were

I seriously hate this doctor, can’t stand him but I needed an appointment and he was the only one available! He was the same doctor who said nothing was wrong with me, then a few days later was diagnosed with PCOS!

Fast forward to today, I’m still in bed and feel like crap and my period decides to show up! It’s been 5 months since it last showed up & now when I can’t get much sicker, it shows up & makes me feel worse!

Damn this crappyness!

I’m officially freezing my big ghetto ass off right now! I’m lying in bed watching Gilmore Girl’s Season 6 (addicted thanks to my mom!) with the heating on (which I rarely do since it get’s so stuffy!) and I’m still shivering! I have socks on (which I rarely do), 2 jumpers (cause I’m frikin cold) and my trusty PJ trousers which my mom says looks like I’ve pooped my pants cause they hang to low, ghetto style LOL (yes I’m aware it’s a bad bad image to have in your head).

It’s supposed to be 0°C tonight, but it feels like it’s -10°C and the weather will be pretty much crappy the rest of the week, ending on Friday at -2°C *cries into her pillow*

So yeah, it won’t suprise me if I end up with a nasty chest infection as I normally do around this time, better stock up on drugs and lot’s of them!

Toodles, I’m off to watch Gilmore Girls again and try get warmer
