Tuesday’s Troubles

Disclosure: If you make a purchase through the links posted below, I may receive a small compensation. Read the full disclosure.

It’s time for another edition of Tuesday Troubles. I’ve said it before, but this should be named “things i’m annoyed / confused / want to complain about”, however I couldn’t figure out how to make any of those into a snappy title, so Tuesday Troubles it is. And yes, I do realize that these aren’t true “troubles”. I know these for sure could be defined as first world problems!

~Does anyone else wish that Candy Crush had an “undo” button because I totally do. Nothing drives me crazier than when I somehow miss getting 5 candies in a row and then realize it a few seconds too late. It’s the worst. Drives me crazy. I am getting all worked up just thinking about it. I probably could have conquered every level already if there was an undo button!

~Why can’t you upload a picture to Instagram from your computer? This has been bothering me for a while now and I just don’t get it. I can update facbook, twitter, etc. from both my phone and computer. But Instragram? Nope. You’ve gotta have a phone. Listen I get that Instragram is suppose to be what you are doing this instant, but I also don’t care. Maybe right this instant I want to post an image from my computer? Too bad. Not happening. Instead I have to e-mail the picture to myself and then download it to my phone from my e-mail. UGHHHHH!!!

~So when I use the treadmill or go for a walk with the kids, I always have to listen to Pandora because I have no songs on my iPhone. No seriously, I don’t. It’s quite strange, but I haven’t for years. Something happened a long time ago during a download or a sync or something and boom, they were all gone. And I was too busy (aka lazy) to do anything about it, so I left it. But I think t’s finally time to fix this issue! So I need some song recommendations! What do you like to listen to?

~I don’t know if it’s like this where you live, but around here, when people see an ambulance or a fire truck, they slow down for about two seconds, make a half-a** attempt to pull to the side of the rode and then continue or their merry way. No one actually STOPS. And if you actually do stop, the jokes on you because the a-holes who didn’t stop behind you will PASS you as you are starting to get moving again. Ugh. Drives me insane. And I am guessing it drives the EMS crews a tad insane too!

~Okay, so I posted my Thursday Thoughts link-up like normal on Thursday. The normal amount of people linked up and all was good. And then I looked at it today and umm, there are 600 random spam links on there. WTF?????? How do I fix this from happening? Pretty sure no one wants to click on p*nis enlargement and viagra links you know? Someone who hosts links ups need to clue me in on what I did to screw this up?? HELP ME!!!!!!

That’s it from here for now! What’s troubling you today?

    It’s so funny that you mentioned the EMS/Fire thing. I was literally on the phone with my husband while reading, while he was complaining about the EXACT same thing. I live in the DC area, so I guess a-holes are a nationwide problem.

    Hi! Not sure if u know cuz I didn’t until a little while ago but if you’ve ever purchased any songs from iTunes under the account you use for your phone you can go to iTunes and go under the more tab at the bottom and then go under purchased and it will say not on iPhone go under that and all your songs are there to download onto your phone! I was excited when I figured it out. Songs I am liking to workout to are ” next to me” by Emile Sande , “what a feeling” by Alex Gaudino, “sweat” David Guetta

    What’s troubling me today… the shipping on my popsugar musthave box! I live in Atlanta, and it’s been in Atlanta since Friday, I’ve been tracking it, and it just keeps getting moved to different FedEx locations in Atlanta and the suburbs, and it says it won’t be delivered till this Friday! It happens with every popsugar box I get, it’s such a tease!

    Nothing’s troubling me yet, I’ve only been up for 20 minutes. 🙂 The small child might trouble me if he doesn’t get out of the shower and ready for school in the next 10 minutes though!

    I’m on a country music kick right now – 1994 by Jason Aldean and Mama’s Broken Heart by Miranda Lambert are in relatively high rotation. Also the Lumineers and Adele, but Adele never goes away!

    try SONGZA instead of Pandora. there are not commercials and its free. also they have customized playlists its the best

    1. Viv

      @clarisse: Second this recommendation. You don’t have to think of an artist…the playlists go by mood or genre. I’m listening to it right now 🙂

    I actually never use my ipod anymore, except for podcasts. I use my phone and have Spotify premium. I cannot live without it. I am a crazy music nerd and listen to music constantly, so $10 a month seems like peanuts to be able to listen to anything I want, when I want. I love sharing music so if you are on there my user is thomyorkesbadeye. Who are some of your favorite bands/singers?

    Anything by Citizen Cope or Ray Lamontagne!!! It will change your life! =)
    I’m so glad I found your blog (MY HUBBY IS NOT SINCE NOW I SUBSCRIBE TO 14 BOXES!) every time I’m reading I realize your my kind of mom!
    I discovered Candy Crush this weekend and I NEED AN UNDO BUTTON, I swear I’m not dumb but apparently my mind does not see the better color connections until after i make my move??

    Okay, I was just wishing the other day that candy crush had an undo button! This game is so addicting it drives me crazy!!! I think we need candy crush t-shirts!!!

    I am also troubled by the shipping on my Ipsy, Birchbox and Popsugar!!! It is so frustrating. I mean, come on…. are they walking it here?

    There’s a great website called Jogfm.com. You can fine music that you can use to find songs that are a certain MPH or steps per mile. I like making walking/jogging playlists with certain beats to help me go faster or even do intervals.

    1. Jamie

      Wow I dont know what happened with that message. lol. You can find music with certain steps per mile and so on to keep your steps up or at a certain mile per minute.

    Haha Candy Crush is giving me anxiety!

    Tuesday Troubles? I had to go to the dentist today. My 40 year old fillings are starting to fail. Pain. And I DID pull over on the way to the dentist when an ambulance went the other way on a two lane road…the person ahead of me did also. There are some of us that do pay attention and follow the rules! I listen to lots of Dance and Electronic stuff while walking. Current favorite songs is Maklemore’s Can’t Hold Us.

    Instagram’s rules drive me crazy too. For the same reasoning, they don’t allow scheduling posts (unlike pretty much every other social media platform out there). I mean we are busy people and if I happen to have a bunch of cool pics I don’t want to post them at once but I want to spread them out!

    A few days ago there was a cop with his sirens and lights on, caught at a red light. I backed up so that the car in front of him could move over to my lane but it scooted like 6 inches and stopped even though there was plenty of room! Baffling.

    I am loving the Foo Fighters newest CD. It’s not super new but it’s a favorite.
