Totally Frustrated

I'm never one to finish stuff. I'm pretty good about doing small projects that can be done a couple of hours or projects that have steps. I just do one step at a time and I'm usually okay with the project on a whole. In order for me to finish a project I have to make a concise effort. I have to think about it constantly until I finish whatever I'm doing.
So I have done all the stuff for my A Week In the Life Project except put it all together. Why haven't a put it together, cause I have no ink for my printer. Why don't you use Tim's printer you ask? Well his printer is out of ink as well. So we ordered ink for his printer. Amazon won't ship the ink here. So we had to mail it to his parents house and I'm okay with that but it is just more waiting and my project just continues to sit here, unfinished.
Now I would have been okay with all of this because I had another scrapbooking project that I was planning on doing while I was waiting for the supplies to come in for the Week in the Life project. I ordered the stuff for this project about 2 weeks ago and it still isn't here yet. But even if it did get here I still can't do anything cause I HAVE NO INK!!
Why don't you just go out and buy ink you ask? Well since our BX sucks so bad they don't even sell it. I have one of the most basic printers of all time and the damn BX doesn't sell any ink at all. So I have to call Croughton today and see if they have it cause at this point I'm so feed up with all of it that I would drive down there.
But Andi, don't they have office supply stores in the UK? Well yes they do and we went down to one of them yesterday to purchase ink. We found what was suppose to work online and then went to the store. So after we got home and we ate dinner it was time to try out the ink. I put it in the computer and my computer said NOPE, WRONG CARTRIDGE! Well I just spent about 40 pounds (about $75 - the exchange rate is really good now) on ink that I don't know if I can return cause well I already pulled the little tabbie thing off the bottom.
So here I sit, one project that just needs to be put together just waiting on ink and the damn mailman and the other one that I can't even start cause well England sucks and so does the office supply stores here. I'm done!
