Title: Question of the Day -- What sets you off?
Posted: 2 yearss ago

OK, we all get a little crazy! Heck, we have so much to deal with, who wouldn't go a little nuts every-so-often?

What do you snap at the most? What drives you crazy every time? Do the kids do something specific? is it the significant other? Maybe something else?

What drives you up the wall consistently

When my lovely daughters "forget" their chores, that is when I threaten to forget to make dinner!  I actually had one of those crazy mornings this morning.  The girls forgot their chores last night, there father did not get done working and doing his estimates until 9pm last night and I have discovered that there is just not enough time in the day to get all the laundry done and go to work!  UGGHHH.  Not a good day, boy I need to vent.

What really gets my blood boiling is when my hubby and i make plans with our friends to go some where and my hubby decides at the last min. that he doesn't want to go. that just ticks me off.

Is this a universal thing?? This drive me crazy too.

As far as kids go, mine are just little so I don't get mad, but they congregate in doorways and it just blows my mind that both of my girls will hang out IN the smallest doorway they can find and just look at you like you're crazy when you ask them to move so you can get through and they resist when you urge them along.

What sets me off the most is when I can't find someting that I need, which I myself, misplaced.  It is maddening to think that I created my own predicament.  I get frustrated, because I can't find what I need, and I can't blame anyone or anything for it.  Yell

When someone else is an idiot or does something idiotic, I simply think, "poor idiot, I'm glad I'm not you."  When I an an idiot or do something idiotic, I say, "urrrrgggghhhhh!!!"

Have a great day, everyone.  Oh, and by the way ... try not to misplace anything you'll need later Wink

When I think about this, it seems petty, but it drives me to madness.  My hubby will fall asleep on the couch.  I can't leave him there because his back and neck will be all crinked up and he won't be able to move the next day.  The thing that gets me is that it takes 30-45 minutes of me yelling at him to get him to wake up enough to move.  Then he acts all mad at me for waking him up but thanks me for it the next morning.  Gggrrrrrr!

In general, repeating myself more then 3x, especially when the person has responded as if they fully understand what I have said - a dialog has actually taken place.

OHHHHH where to begin?!

My kids sometimes make me snap. They love to fight alot.

Drivers out there that do not pull over for emergency vehicles that have thier lights and sirens going. THATS my BIGGEST thing that makes me flip.

I can go on and on and on but maybe I shouldnt. LOL.

People who litter as if the world just doesn't matter.  You know, walking to their car from the mini-mart and unwrapping whatever crap they just bought and throwing the wrapper on the ground as they walk, or tossing a drink cup out the window, etc etc.

Also, tailgaters, people who crowd me in the security line at the airport, and people who berate a service person for being slow or bring the wrong thing etc etc, as if they had never made a mistake.

Oh, and parents who go overboard shouting at their kids in public (or private I suppose - but you can't see them there.)
