    Is anyone else as pi%#}<> as me? Yes I know we should count our blessings daily, many are in genuine misery but just sometimes everything and everybody gets on your wick so much you could scream ..

    Firstly I am so fed up of the rain and the howling and gusting wind, really getting on my nerves.

    I've also had a look at the TV schedule for tonight - The Bridge is finished. Instead there is rugby, Winter Olympics. Game shows, old dated and tired films and repeats ... We are going to end up having a neighbours fest, very tragic for a Saturday night.

    I've also got a cat lodged under my armpit who won't go and sleep elsewhere so I he is constantly in the way as I'm typing.

    My main angst is the on going problems I am having with emails. OH could not get it sorted out on the old computer so he installed outlook 2010 on the new computer a week ago which was great except it isn't.

    I have a very long list of inbox folders and message rules on the old system which works fine for me, everything that comes in slots straight into an inbox folder I just have to set up the same system on the new computer but its not exactly the same. If OH would listen to me and let me just try and work it out for myself then I might get the gist of it.

    Old system re downloaded years old emails in triplicate, long deleted so once I've set the folders up again I can delete as I go along and restore harmony and order again to my emails.

    Instead OH has showed me a help video which I did not understand one word of and printed off some sheets which again make no sense - something about pst files, saving emails and folders and archiving. None of which I've ever needed to do before, I just want to get on with the process of making folders and message rules.

    So then OH says he has lost a set up disc. I say have you had a look in the black folder (the folder has all of the stuff and discs that came with the computer) OH ignores me and starts looking in every nook and cranny and corner and drawer for the missing disc. I give up figuring out OUtlook 2010 as he is in the way and leave the computer room to him still looking for the disc.

    I retreat to the iPad with the annoying black cat.

    an hour later OH asks me where the black folder is and I point him at the correct set of draws in the dining room - he can't find these draws as he has only lived here for 25 years. Underneath the black folder is the missing disc OH has been looking for.

    OH now says I am making him Ill.

    OH is watching his 3rd game of football.... I am totally with you in this feeling!!

    The annoying thing is that it sound like it was faulty all along then! We have had one we got from Lidl for probably about 10 years, paid around £80 for it though!

    mhoc - I find punching the bed helps :eek: Where I used to work when my manager got on my nerves I used to go and punch a box of crisps, although in the end I had to leave or I would have punched him!

    I think its beyond this. If it was daylight and not so foul outside I used to go and take the angst out on the compost heap but then I worried about the branding worms I was cutting in half whilst I was turning the heap over. angst vacuuming is also therapeutic but I'm even beyond this ...

  • Keep safe bubbs. The village I live in is nearly cut off by flooded roads. Thankfully my house is at the top of a hill but the pub and some shops and houses in the valley are flooded by our usually dry river!

    Got the shakes from overdosing on inhaler after breathing in dust emptying my vacuum.
    :hello: The grass is not greener, it just looks that way from a distance :hello:

    OH has had endless hours with Top Gear this morning - I think this is what started it all.

    Our thoughts and prayers.

    I don't think I would be going to bed tonight with the worry of it all - do you manage to get any sleeps at all?
