Post something that made you UNHAPPY today.

Accidentally locked myself out of the house. Thank goodness my neighbor arrived after about 30 minutes of trying to remember the code, so I could call my spouse, who reminded me of the correct code. LOL

My family again. One of my family members cleaned the bathroom. She's also been taking the trash out before I got to it, before it actually needed to be taken out. It was confusing but whatever, I guess. I wasn't upset until I hear her very loudly talking on the phone to somebody complaining about having to do it herself. First, there was some work being done in our bathroom and she told me to leave it alone until she tells me otherwise. She never told me otherwise, so I've left it alone. Second, I have been taking the trash out when it needs it. Why would I take it out before it needs it? That makes no sense.

I missed my dentist appointment again because I misread the time as 1 PM instead of 12 PM. The receptionist was really angry sounding. I called myself The Village Idiot and she said that she couldn't understand a word that I said, so I told her that I'm a moron. She understood that.

Took a long time to fall asleep. Now I am sleepy.

I can’t find my wallet.

I found a pack of shades of brown pens that I need for my art on Amazon and it had been £20 but went down to £14, so I decided to wait until payday to order it. When payday came, the pens had gone back up to £20.

Why is Amazon so greedy now? There's no need for a pack of colouring pens to cost that much, even if they are sharpies. Other colours seem to cost way less than that.

My mom has an old crappy couch that she gave to me and my roommates, so today we were trying to move it into the apartment. After renting a truck, hauling the couch downtown, and enlisting the help of one of my roommates and his mom as well, we got the couch halfway up the stairs before it fell apart. So we went back to get another couch we'd seen on the curb, loaded it into the truck, brought it back to the apartment, and discovered it didn't fit through the door.

This is the kind of absurdity that seems to only happen in my family

The heat and all the wasps.

Just a bit of peripheral info

The graves of two great grandchildren of my first cousin (one either side of my aunt)
One of them didn't even make it to a day old

I see them every time I go there but I always forget how sad it is until I see it

I can't breathe. I hate when this happens. It's like I take a deep breath but I don't feel like my lungs have filled right up with air so when I breathe out again I don't feel any relief.

I'd rather have this than feel sick though.

I got rudely awaken by the a**holes upstairs sweeping a corner of their bedroom and moving stuff about. I really hate them. I had a broken night's sleep as it is, and when I finally do get off I get disturbed by THEM. But I can't say anything, because it was almost late morning and you're allowed to make noise during the day. But how the f**k am I supposed to catch up on my sleep? It isn't fair. I had earplugs in and a fan going but when they sweep with a broom or dustpan and brush it's so unbearably LOUD.

I just don't know what to do any more.
Should I go to the doctor and tell them? Maybe they can help, because this is not a healthy way to live, and because it's a grey area there is nothing the landlords can do. I think having a medical note signed by the doctor is the only way forward.

... how thin is your ceiling? It must be like paper if you're hearing your upstairs neighbor sweeping.
Also, I don't think a doctor can help? they might tell you to take some melatonin or some similar sleep aid to sleep better, but a medical note can't make your neighbor stop making noise.

The floors/ceilings are very thin, and the previous resident up there took all the carpets out so there just seems to be hard floor up there.

Nobody in the world can make the neighbours stop making a noise, but the doctor might be able to help me get up higher on the council housing list. We're on it already, and despite explaining all the issues in the application, we're still in the lowest priority band. It's because our issues with the neighbours come under grey areas, and so an Aspie/ADHDer with certain sound sensitivity issues just doesn't get taken seriously by the council nor the landlords. But having a medical note signed by the doctor might help, because if living in my own home requires reliance on headphones and earplugs then it's time to look for a place where nobody will be living above. I can cope with everyday noises coming from either side or below, but when they come from above it seems louder and more consistent. I mean someone's only got to walk across the room up there and it's like an elephant is up there to us, where as people in the house next door can walk across the room without you hearing it, at least not directly above your head anyway.

Obviously antisocial noise like all-night parties can be a thing, but then I'd have reasons to complain. My current situation is not a valid complaint, as you can't stop people from moving around in their own home. I get that. That's why I need to move but my reasons aren't valid enough to be prioritised a new place.

My Stepsisters mother and stepfather are going through some bad medical stuff. She is struggling with it all.

I just got out of a public restroom and a patron accused me of not flushing the toilet.

Just not having carpet shouldn't make such a relatively quiet activity like sweeping so loud though. There might be something else wrong with the place. I've lived in several apartment buildings over the course of my life and none of them had this issue. In some it was easier to hear the neighbors through the walls, but the only way you would heard them through the ceilings or floors was if they were being extremely loud, like blasting music at full volume. It's really strange, and concerning, that your ceiling is apparently so thin.
