Good morning peevers.

I'm posting later than usual- it's been manic here for the last day.

Yesterday we had to rush our daughter from her where she works part time to the railway station with minutes to spare. Her friends who are staying in London hadn't given her the address despite a request or two and their mobile phone wasn't working.

Long story short she is fine and with the family in London.

My heartfelt peeve is when people cannot get their flipping act together and pass on important information.

POTD;

Lack of communication.

....sort of like when my daughter took the car to get the oil changed and neglected to 'pass on' the information to me that the mechanic said the oil pan had a crack in it.

It's hard to see our kids frustrated too.

Inconsiderate friends!

Yes, those are the moment you definitely don't forget about. The $$ moments of Mom, I didn't realize it would cost you.....sigh.

That's a good peeve, Jezer. Our guys on the jobsite are frequently snarky with eachother, and it's usually always because of a lack of communcation.
