Slipped on the ice in our driveway while de-icing the car.
Left hand in particular is a bit tender & moderately swollen; I'm fairly sure it's just bruising but not noticeably discoloured. I couldn't drive, can't even hold the phone comfortably. Minor bruises elsewhere, but these have eased a fair bit at this stage.
Meant myself + better half had to cancel a treat, now deferred to next year...grrr.

I am so sorry NNA, rest and heal!
That all sounds painful.

Oh no, that's so unfortunately!
I have to drive 2+ hours across the country later this afternoon... hoping when I'm hitting Dublin things aren't too icy but it will be after 6 😬

ESB Boxes in estates and their positioning. Thrown out the front in between two driveways which makes it impossible for larger vehicles to A) see and B) avoid.
Have seen loads of courier drivers, Eir vans, larger vehicles all back into them or in one case beach themselves completely and rip off a part of their bumper.
Oil truck came in today in the bad weather and had a minor skid when backing up... see the result below...
It's pure lazy from a design point of view, plain ugly and just shouldn't be permitted!

Headlice! ARGH! Both kids classes sent out notifications of an outbreak. We've shampooed the whole lot of us as a precaution and I'm about to shave the dog bald. Can't take any chances where headlice are concerned. The cat is lucky she has short hair as is so I'll just give her a bath.

Lice are species specific, the cat and dog won't get them.
Probably best to burn the house down just to be safe though.

These rants are getting very common 😳
Gemma O'Doherty should be tied down and shot with balls of her own shite for her latest stunt. A truly vile and disgusting person.

A neighbour (from waaaay down the hall, whom i have only seen maybe twice in 2 years) knocked (repeatedly) on my door at 2am last night... just to have a chat. Her excuse? she heard me coughing, so I must be up.
(I was not "up" ...and since when does coughing mean an instant invite to socialise with mere strangers... in the middle of the night?)
.....People baffle me, no end

I spent ages doing a shopping list and then left it at my arse. Tried to remember eveything but forgot the half of it. So I will have to go shopping again now which I didn't want to do.

You should get some fabric plasters - I find they stay put best on the heels while they heal (unintended pun 🤦♀️) The boots own brand ones are great

Cold and drafty pubs and cafes get my goat. On cafes too, when you are seated and given a menu and then forgotten about for ages. Blehh.

Pringles have sneakily reduced the size of their tub from 200g to 165g.. obviously no change in price!
Have noticed it happening a lot in last 6 months, dunnes have done the same with their meat, rise in price but what was 400g mince is now 350g

doesn't sit right with me, calling a 6 year old, a young man.
A 6 year old is a child.
Probably trying to get in the mindset where they want to prosecute the child as an adult.

How did a 6 year old get a gun, the parents should be arrested too
It is all too common hearing of gun violence daily in America, they will never change their laws

That would be alarming and unprecedented, very few below the age of 15 are tried as adults - even then it's only under extenuating circumstances (weighing the crime and past crimes committed).
