My Daily Winge;
Wouldn't it be nice to buy something and actually have it look like the picture that is being advertised. For example,
isnt it strange how you buy a canned food and it might show big chunks of meat, yet your lucky to get 1 scrawny piece of meat
( well Im assuming its meat-who really knows!!) Another classic, is the convienient frozen meals, ohh they look so good, with
lots of meat, and again, lucky to find 1 piece amongst the rice and veges.! Oh I love veges, but even they can fall victim
to the false advertisement picture.. Somehow they dotn look as fresh and crisp as the pic showed..
But good thing is, we as consumers do have the right to complain if something isnt satisfactory. I once bought a pack
of individual snack biscuit type things and 3 out of the 12 pacs were opened and left them stale, after the 2nd time of buying
these bags, i wrote a letter to the company. About a week later I had a visit from a rep from the company with some free goodies.!
There was even a bag of the individ ones I had complained about, and you wouldnt believe......YEah 2 of the pacs inside were
opened and stale!!!! Good one guys!
Few days ago;
I dont know why, but ODD SOCKS, just frustrate me. I can do washing and when it comes time to fold and sort the clothes,
there always manages to be odd socks.! So I put them aside until the other shows up, but when finally the other does, Ive
misplaced or (thrown out the other from totally being p'ed off.)..I dont know why it bothers me so much, but i just find it
hard to believe that sox have feet of their own and up and walk away.!
A Previous Winge:
I wonder why the clothing industry doesnt cater for "short" people..Well, not unless you are short and the right
size for your age. It doesnt in this country anyway.
I have this huge problem, that if I buy 3/4 length pants they arent 3/4 on me, instead they are long. If not that, then
the crutch hangs down low. AS for even buying pants/jeans, they are miles too long that I end up cutting half the damn material
off that Ive paid for..maybe I should ask for a "short" discount. Then there is the problem of dresses, seeing a
manequin where its dressed and the dress comes to knees..NA uh, not with me, more like then a 3/4 length dress, oh and not
to mention, if you are quite "supplied" up top, good luck finding a dress to fit that area, as well as the rest
of your shape.
Not everyone is tall, and thin, and its setting this stero type perception of how we should be..Really craps me off.
Once a winge;
Today, as the warmer weather is approaching, I seeked out my summer clothes, only to find Im not as slim as I was last
summer.. Things either didnt fit, fullstop or are quite tight and leave alot to be "undesired", eg the spare tyres!.
Why is it so HARD to lose weight, yet so damn easy to stack on.?..It seems to take a lifetime waiting every week to see
if you lost some, yet gaining, I swear is within a blink of an eye..Smelling food, seems to just add on those kilo's/pounds..
You can bust your ass to lose weight, but it takes no effort to gain..SIGH...
Time to get out those walking shoes it seems..IF THEY STILL FIT!!

This morning I woke after having a dream that put me in a foul mood. Wouldnt be so bad if the dream was a positive one.
I wonder why some dreams reflect on us throughout the day and we cant seem to shake them..

Today I don't really have anything to winge about, as I received a phone call last night of something I have always dreaded.
I have been "blessed", I guess you can call it, with not having "lost" anyone to death, although my Pop
did pass away, but I was only 18 mnths old.
This is about my beloved Nan,( my mum's mother). She has been diagnosed with Acute Leukemia, so basically it's rapid and
down hill from now. My Nan, has always been fit and healthy, (yes she smoked-but still seemed to be more active then myself).
My Nan and I have this unspoken bond, and even if months or years pass without communication, we never feel like strangers.
I have smiling thoughts, of I would suddenly write to her out of the blue and within days I would receive a reply. She would
write back the same day she received mine. Nan, never liked a fuss made over her, and she came across as "cold",
and shallow, but you have to look past the exterior, and within her is a lonely, big hearted old lady. I always saw that.
I can tell Nan anything, and she has also told me recently that she can tell me how it is and I dont judge her. God love her
though, makes me laugh, she can swear like a trooper, but thats Nan, take it or leave it.
I have cried all night. I can imagine it must be hard losing someone, but for the 1st one to be someone who you love so
so dearly is unimaginable. I fear that I will not be able to recover..Ok, Im sure I will in time, but initial thought is that
I'll mourn forever..
So this 1st (to be) loss has given me quite a kick in the guts. Please dont take every day for granted and put off seeing
those you love.. Love you Nan.xx
A Previous Winge;
Hmmm, ok now this one is for anyone who is with someone that has an "ex" that doesnt like to be fair. I am the
victim, so to speak, of a jealous ex, of my partner. The reason for this is there is a child involved, and the "ex"
is threatened by me with this child. (I really am a nice person and don't winge all the time- which is why I created this
site, if not for anyone else to read but for my own self to express)
I would think that an ex would be happy to know that their child will be with another woman, or talk to another woman,
and the child is being treated good. So why am I a threat? I have 3 children of my own whom visit their father and his new
g/f, and to me I am at peace, knowing this woman treats my children good. She doesnt try to take over my own parenting ways
or over spoil them so they "love" her more, as in a childs eye. A child loves his/her father, but a mothers love
is very strong and the bond is never usually broken. This isnt fair also to the fathers or the ex that is the victim whether
it is mother of father, as they are put in a position of loyalties. But I sit back and accept that I have to bide my time
in order to be even able to talk on the phone to my partners child. Luckily I am patient.
To all a nice day...Over and out.!
First Winge;
This one if for all the mothers, fathers, and carers of children whom stay home from school sick.
Why is it that when they stay home, they miraculously come well by 10am?.. Then by 11am, they have all this energy, and
want to play and they want YOU to play with them..then they are bored.
Time and again, I say, "thats it, you are not staying home again, or if you do, you are staying in bed resting all
day". But what happens, they stay home and so we go through it again. Or you send them to school, only to have the school
call you to collect your "sick" child. Then you feel bad as a parent for sending your sick child to school..shame
on you!
I remember as a child if I stayed home from school, I HAD to stay in bed all day, so why do I cave in for my children
and allow them to play the play station and get out of bed?
Today my eldest daugter is home sick, and yes, she was "better" by 10am, and she played with her pet rabbit,
and played the play station, despite me saying this morning, she was to stay in bed all day. Once again, I caved in. IS she
going to school tomorrow, YES.!!
