Stuff that happened to you that doesnt deserve a thread

Just aced my COVID-19 Preparedness and Implementation inspection from the DMR (Department of Mineral Resources and Energy)!!! Our small mine is 100% compliant and is allowed to continue to operate. :campeon:
 
Went Chop-chop this morning to scout for new quarry locations.

I went to work this morning and having vaped last night my batts were half capacity this morning so I decided to charge it and vaped on my second set.

It's still at work charging, because I forgot it. Now I'm changing through the mod:facepalm:.
 
Bad things always happen in three's. Atleast now it is done, because honestly I don't think this day can get any worse, and I can't really take anymore.
First - Freya had to get surgery.
Second - My cousin is in ICU with CV-19
Third - Just found out my uncle in Cape Town passed away. Today has not been a good day. Treat every day like it's your last. Say what you want and need to say to those that you love. You never know when you will no longer have that opportunity. Stay safe guys and girls, please look after yourselves. I'm calling it a night.

Strongs for you.

My grandmother passed away last night.

This whole year needs to come to an end.

@Dela Rey Steyn Whew! What a day! My condolences on your Uncle's death and I hope that your cousin pulls through.
 
Sooo.... My wife's GHD Straightener decides that on some mornings it just beeps constantly and doesn't heat up. Yesterday morning this happens again and she's not a happy camper, so I decide I'm done with this hassle and I order her a new one. R2200 gone... Last night I decide to read up on why it is doing this, because if it's a small issue I might be able to fix it and sell it secondhand to recoup some of the money spent on a new one. Imagine my surprise when I read on GHD's website that the constant beeping is a BLOODY SAFETY FEATURE!!!! Apparently it's called "Shiver Mode" and kicks in when the internals are below 8 degrees celcius. This is to prevent condensation forming when the straightener heats up from cold conditions. :facepalm::rofl:
 
Our dishwasher of 10 years finally packed up a couple of months ago. (No, it's not my wife, but rather a very fancy LG) Day in and Day out I have to hear SWAMBO complain about "the dishwasher this" or "I'm so tired of doing the dishes". What I find funny Is that I replaced the dishwasher with a new one 2 days ago... Completely different brand too... Even left all the blue protective tape on it... And she still hasn't noticed the new appliance. :-D:-D

Maybe try sneak in another dishwasher (a wife!) and see what happens? ;)

I must say it is a mission to strip those stuff they are tightly packed
 
So ive decided.
If i ever get diagnosed with a terminal illness, David Attenborough needs to tell me.
But he must explain it to me over a 2 hour period.
Then I can die.
 
Completely forgot about this thread. Thanks @Resistance for rating some of my posts :-D

Sooo... whats happened since I last posted here... Fixed the dishwasher (yes, the LG... The marriage one is still whining and costing me money. ) @Balsak it was the pump, thanks for the advice and recommendation.

Then proceeded to donate the LG to a friend's brother.

Bought myself a 3d printer and started a small side hustle. Already made enough back to cover cost of printer, supplies used and a little bit of spare cash.

Discovered a restoration channel on youtube and now I want to buy damaged things and restore them. Those vids look so relaxing...

Bit of an "all over the place" post, so I guess I'm in the right thread :tearsofjoy:
