I'm barred from cleaning out the litter tray for a few months but instead it being cleaned by the OH I get to live with the uncleaned and malodorous litter tray as he forgets to do it before heading to work...AGAIN.

TA I don't have anyone to change the litter for me and am basically going to spend the next 6 months terrified of the risk of toxoplasmosis. As if pregnancy doesn't come with enough problems! Also TA I have become a hormonal freight train and have already unashamedly used the "it's my hormones" excuse to the point that it will be defunct very soon

Leaving work last week, I had a lecture scheduled for that evening. I left with enough time to drive to town and do a small bit of shopping before class for an item I needed. As I stood up to leave, a colleague said they would take a lift from me into town which was fine. I said "see you downstairs in a minute". Twenty minutes later, still no sign. WTF? If that was me and I wanted to cadge a lift, I'd make sure not to delay the person at all! Eventually called their extension and the shocked response - "Oh you're still there!? I thought you'd gone!" - well, no that's why I said "see you downstairs". Got stuck in rush hour traffic and had to rush my shopping 0

I cried at a dog food advert the other day because the dog was happy. I feel your pain, I'm like a stranger to myself.
Just have a supply of single-use gloves, antibacterial hand wash, hand sanitizer, and be very careful of your special self. I hope you feel a teeny bit calmer soon
My TA is a crick in my neck so bad that I can barely turn my head at all. 0 -

Use gloves and put the gloved hand into a nappy sack , scoop the poo up while holding the bag , turn inside out and close the sack .Unroll the glove off and immediately dump both into the binTA I don't have anyone to change the litter for me and am basically going to spend the next 6 months terrified of the risk of toxoplasmosis.

Wash your hands with hot water and dettol soap and then with a disinfectant
You will never come in contact with the poo then .0 -

I've had cats (some indoor) for over ten years so am hoping I am already immune. I wear gloves, wash (and shower) after and use special wellies etc. But still can't shake the fear. Mine have an enclosure that requires a once weekly deep clean, and I dread going in. I was considering maybe paying a student cash in hand to do it once a week. I know I'd have done it for drinks money when I was at college! Pet food and pet sitter already eat into wages - TA the responsibility of animals and how much they cost!:P
Actually another TA, working with someone who just came back from mat leave who was also obsessed with toxoplasmosis and keeps telling me it can be air borne! She doesn't even know my news yet, why is she talking to me about this!? Stop talking! 0 -

Ah you poor thing, all that worrying isn't great for the stress levels. I'd tell the colleague to shut it a couple of levels, that would drive me insane and there's no need for it. Hopefully she'll be more sensitive when she's in the know.
I think paying the student (even a secondary student would love the extra cash!) is a great idea because of the worry it'll save you. Go for it and let yourself relax a little
We recently adopted an elderly doggy and between his diet and his arthritis meds and our regular check ins, the cost really does add up. Our remaining cat is like a bargain by comparison!0 -

You probably have thought of this, but in case, if you contact post primary schools that do further education classes in veterinary nursing or pre veterinary, they will have enthusiastic students who would have time off to help and would love a pet parent ref for college."Have you ever wagged your tail so hard you fell over"?-Brod Higgins.

Record second episode tmw on BBC 1 then you only have to sit through half the amount of adds on Wednesday.... I think there's episode 3 and 4 also. I was too busy having a strop resetting everything to fully pay attention.
No I couldn't even treat it as a comedy 0 -

I bought new glasses for €239 in Specsavers in July and I can't wear them.
I've had them loosened, tightened, all sorts done to them, but no matter what, I get pressure pains on my ears and end up with a splitting headache within an hour.
Its like the arms of the glasses are too short for my ears and aren't sitting right, but they've been so unhelpful. They're blaming the shape of my head and saying they can do no more.
Such a waste of money and I'm stuck wearing my old ones, of which the prescription isn't strong enough. Extremely TA'd.0 -

Id persist with this. They are at fault for bad measurement regardless of head shape. Id get back onto management of the store. Hope you get somewhere with it.0 -

If your old ones were a comfortable fit then the shape of your head has nothing to do with the problem. I agree 're. keeping on to this. If they're not fit for purpose you should at least be refunded.
Ta the good old splitting open spaghetti package. They could just as easily package dry goods in brown paper anyway. Unwrapping excess plastic takes as long as doing the online shopping.0 -

Could be a difference in the temple length, this is normally written on the glasses
