In work - yesterday. Disagreed strongly with a senior member of staff. Got a bit of a dressing down for it.
Personal life - also yesterday. Forgotten I was supposed to attend a family thing, mother was not pleased
Fab - not really been told off. But a "left on read" or deleted message is as close to a "get back in your box, fat lad" as I get 😂 |

If someone feels they need to puff chest out unnecessarily and read the riot act aka rules and regulations (like when I'm at a new place with my work) I just say I'm new here and educated is better than condemnation" |

This morning. I was big spoon to my dog, stroking his belly when I fell back to sleep. He did not take well to to losing out on the pets, whipped his head round and gave me the worst kind of 'I'm disappointed in you' face. |

This morning, by our 3yo. How dare I ask her to hold my hand to cross the road. She walked into class, still fuming. They asked her why she was sad, and she gave them the silent treatment! Can't wait to pick her up... 😅 |

I got that telling off look yesterday from my dog, he watched me put all his toys in the washing machine he was ok with it till his fav Geoffrey the Giraffe went in, he then spent most of the day going out into the garden looking at him drying on the line and coming back into the house and huffing at me. |

Oh, I remember now. 2 nights ago I accidentally stood on the cats tail. That was a real screechy bitey telling off  |

Last night, by my daughter, when I asked her about something that she had literally just told me about.
I don't always hear her properly I'm afraid. I never know whether it's worse to bluff that I've heard her, and try to work it out from context, or say "I beg your pardon, I didn't hear that, could you repeat it?". She gets annoyed, and I get, "Dad! I've just told you that!"/"You didn't hear what I just said, did you?"
This is Karma for all the times in my youth that I got got annoyed with my Mum in the exact same way.

Yesterday by a district nurse. Apparently I put the wrong medication in mother-in-law’s pillbox. I didn’t. I was willing to die on that hill, but I have mellowed so much with age that I barely recognise myself. Took the telling off.
Whatever.

It doesn't always seem it, but these years are lovely to look back on. Such a fun (and exhausting) age
Our threenager gives us more jip than the actual teenager 😅 |

Oh, I totally agree. I also have three older teenagers, and they generally avoid conflict (and communication!) entirely 🤣 |

Very similar: My granddaughter when I asked her to give me her paw (To cross the road.) I was told curtly:
"I'm not an animal." "I'm a hooman."  |
