The Trivial Complaints Thread ... #3

I hate when I overfill molds while pouring resin.  It's not a big deal but it can make a mess.

On top of everything else I posted about earlier, I'm pretty sure that my mom took my Fitbit thinking it was hers and now I have hers because she thinks it's mine.  They were right next to each other.  They're the same model, but different colored bands.  I'm sure that I had the one with the blue band, but my mom says that she had the blue one and I had green.  I think I know which color I had.   My mom insists that the blue band one is hers though.  She grabbed the blue band one and synced it to her phone and said that proved it was hers.  I really don't want to argue about something as trivial as which Fitbit belongs to whom. but my mom hurt my feelings because I was just trying to do something nice for her and plug in her Fitbit because she said that hers needed charging after mine was done.  I thought I took mine off and put hers on but she said it was the opposite.  I just changed the one that I'm wearing now to a purple band. Looking at the green band was making me sad.

I tried to diamond paint this afternoon, but I'm adjusting to my new glasses and the marks on the canvas and the drills were blurry.   I tried to work on it anyway, but I kept missing where the drills should go and having to adjust them.

I have a new pain in my left side It's about the middle of my back where my ribs are. It hurts while I'm sitting which really sucks because sitting is the least painful thing I can do. I'm wondering if I slept funny. It hurt yesterday too. I spend most of my time at my desk or craft table so this is really inconvenient.

We've gotten a lot of snow today.  My boss already gave me permission to call in tomorrow if I need to but my dad seems to think he'll get up and plow the drive in the morning...with broken ribs.  He fell on the ice last week and broke them.  Seriously, I can't convince him that it is absolutely okay if he DOESN'T plow the drive in the morning!  My dad is very stubborn and then wonders why my mom gets frustrated with him.

There was just a series of very loud booms that lasted for like 5 minutes. People on Nextdoor are claiming it was fireworks from the casino that’s around here, but they way they were spaced and the sound didn’t really sound like fireworks to me. I also don’t see any events for tonight listed on the Casinos website. Whatever it was it sounded scary!

Ugh. I think I'm starting to catch the flu darling daughter dearest is just getting over.

I still have pain in my side but it's gotten better. Today though, my ankle is bruised and hurts. I vaguely remember banging it on something? Maybe? And my eczema has spread more but it's at the pain stage and not the itchy stage. I think I like it better when it hurts and not itchy.

I saw that cat again. He always seems to go the same direction and I can't see far enough to see if he goes to an apartment. He must belong to someone. I hate that they let him out, especially since people speed on this road.

Sorry your feeling so bad. I don't understand why it's alright to let your cat roam, but not your dog? They can both be hit, stolen, attacked by other animals, plus cats decimate wildlife.  It ought to be considered neglect.

I actually got in an argument on Facebook with a lady who claimed she CAN'T keep her cat indoors because "he likes being outside". Would you treat a child the same way? "Oh, but she likes ice cream so she eats it whenever she wants." No. You can absolutely keep your cat indoors and yeah, he might try to run out, but that's when you stop him, or go get him, or put him somewhere before you open the door. And if your cat doesn't like being inside give him more to do. Play with him, get some some interactive toys, get another cat. No cat NEEDS to be outside!

Good writing! I totally agree!

In the UK outdoor cats are a thing & have been for as long as most of us have known. Cats having access to the outdoors is also a thing here.

However if you live in a country where cats are an invasive species who've only come in within the last couple of hundred years, keeping them indoors should be the law, if only to protect native species who can't defend themselves from cats. This would especially apply to Australia & New Zealand, but I can see the States being more indoor-oriented to cats too, partly due to this & a good part due to car-centric lifestyles

[BlackCurtains]

Well, I don't want to argue about it anymore, but they decimate the local wildlife in the UK too.
