What annoys you about yourself?

All of the above!

What annoys me about myself? All my life I have done what others asked of me, leaving me no time to indulge myself. Since I retired I made up my mind to put myself first. People do not understand the change in me but they will get used to it. Trouble is that every time I say 'No' I feel guilty.

Also as MawBroon has said of herself, I do not understand how tax returns work and being so thick I have to ask OH about it, making myself too dependent on others.

I used to find myself very annoying but, having been through a tough few years, I am actually quite impressed with myself for not falling apart under the stress of it all.

Procrastination for me too (I'm doing it now!)
Also talking too much especially about myself and getting carried away and saying stupid things I regret later (not offensive things just silly or maybe tactless, or trying - and failing- to be funny )

I hate that I cry too easily.

I hate housework and get annoyed when I set a schedule in my head then ignore it.

I dislike myself for being one of those people who always bring a conversation back to themselves, I do try to make an effort not to.

reading instructions are last resort for me even if i don't have a clue

I get so annoyed with myself that I cannot physically do what I did up until roughly a year ago. It takes me twice as long to clean the house (which is far too big for DH and I but he wont hear of selling it and downsizing but I will get my own back when he retires early next year!!)Also my mouth runs away with me, I wish I could 'put up and shut up' but this has never been my forte and has landed me in trouble more than once! I could go on and on but most things I do annoy me .....

Sunseeker You could be my twin,now I am home all day I just put everything thing off until tomorrow where as before all jobs where done as soon as,never had ironing waiting or washing due to done I also walk on egg shells with regard to my DILs and the way they both treat my sons but best keeping my mouth firmly closed as once said it can't be taken back can it.?

Definitely spending too long on the iPad is my worst vice. Parts of the house are a mess and I have so many projects on the go but the iPad beckons and time flies by and then I'm really cross with myself.
Byeee....

Mistress of procrastination, my ironing basket sat on my dining room chair for 3 weeks before I finally did it.

Oven needs cleaning but it's nice & sunny, when I've finished my lunch I'm working in the garden.

My hoover has been in the lounge for 3 days, I was going to do it yesterday but the cat was asleep on the chair, he hates the hoover, how could I waken him?

I'm not likely to change & am very well aware that I will find anything else to do rather than a chore I don't want to do, just hope I don't get unexpected visitors

I have no tolerance for stupidity

Poor spelling annoys me

Are you guilty of these transgressions quizqueen or did you not read the OP properly?

I have no tolerance for stupidity especially if it costs the taxpayer money like when girls keep getting pregnant by different men or people take drugs or drink drive and kill some one. Poor spelling annoys me at work a lot especially as I work in an educational establishment.

What I hate about myself is my inability to stoppppp thinking about my problems. They go round and round and round in my head alllll the time! Drives me mad. I guess if I had more company I'd be better. (Keep very busy, gardening, sewing etc, but those things still don't let my brain rest!!!!!!!)

Shyness. It's been the bane of my life. I thought I'd grow out of it, but no, at 64 I still can't get over it.

Not being assertive enough, trying to please everyone and being a total wimp. Can't seem to find my way out of this trap .... really really wish I could. I imagine what I'll say in certain situations .. then don't. I could kick myself most of the time.

I don't say NO enough. I often do things or go places I really don't want to do/go to please someone else.

However on the other side of the coin I DO spend far too much time in my craft room as I love messing about with paints, inks etc. I should be doing more housework but hey! it's clean enough to be respectable.

I am a bit of an appeaser which causes problems as I actually have quite decided views about some things and couldn't care less about others. When those I have flattered and appeased for general harmony and peace suddenly find I am not a pushover about everything it annoys them.

What annoys me is i find myself saying and doing things my mother would have done,things i didnt like about her

Dont they say, if you want something doing ask a busy person? The more time i have, the less i manage to do. Procrastination procrastination!

FarNorth You could be describing me!! I start the day full of good intentions but end up doing nothing. When I was working I got everything done in a weekend, I think the problem is that now I am retired I think I can "do it tomorrow" and of course I don't!

It's the fine detail of plans that lets me down. I get the bigger picture but that old devil in the detail I will miss too many times. Then not only am I annoyed with myself but with the person who comes along and puts their finger straight on it.

I don't get involved. I don't push myself to get out there and make friends and I could really do with some good friends in my life. I'm too fearful.

I'm annoyed with myself because I don't have the confidence to get out there and meet new friends I appear so confident at work yet out of work I'm a mouse

I have downsizing to do...piles of stuff to sort and I am sat here readings posts on gransnet... Oh and I have work this afternoon and a uniform to iron....oooops did I mention cooking lunch and doing a meal to take to work with me

Gosh, loads of stuff annoys me about me...hahaha

Saying horrid things to my husband who is so kind and generous to me, but I hate the way he is such a control freak. Every time I speak to him he always answers 'yes I know' when he doesn't frigging know coz I've only just told him. Uurgh!
