Confession Tuesday
Okay ladies, to get this board moving, spill the beans. Anything that you need to get off your chest, say it here. And no flaming.

Re: Confession Tuesday
ok, this whats on my mind...
my cousin totally wanting to be at my delivery. first of all, i haven't even gotten to the point of being any where near delivery. second, when she gave birth to her son, she never called me to let me know she was in labor. her husband informed me after she gave birth to go. the reason this happened was b/c she and my mom were in a fight. i think it was silly in her end to treat me like that when i had nothing to do w/the argument. and yes, maybe i'm being childish b/c its been a couple years since but i'm hurt by it. i've mentioned it to her but she just brushes it off like it never happened. so now when she says "i'm going to be there taking pics of everything" i just roll my eyes at her.
LOL! That is too funny!
My confession:
I was able to get all of my work done in 1 hour today. So for the rest of my 6 hours I have been doing home work, reading blogs, and sketching this idea of a bookcase I have in my head for our living room. What can I say.
I would think that it's a very personal thing as to who you want to be there. If you don't want her there, I don't think you should have her and she should understand as a woman that has gone through it and was able to decide who she wanted there.
girl i'm with you!!! i cannot imagine dealing w/ppl at my house now. i'm just sooo tired all the time.
For me, that is a VERY personal event that does not have an open invitation. My mom has already mentioned a couple of times that she wants to be in the delivery room (and I'm not even pg), and it is driving me cookoo!
I'd say "it is a very intimate event that I want to enjoy alone w/ DH as we our family grows."

Girl you have NO idea!
Sorry you're already having to think about delivery and who's going to be in the room with you. You would think your cousin would be a bit more understanding considering she's already been through this. It amazes me how much people seem to "forget" or disregard...nevermind the fact that it's not like you even mentioned that you wanted her in the room with you. She just invited herself and assumed it would be ok with you. Just take one step at a time and try not to let it bother you.
My boss was out last week, and out this week, and I've been on slow motion at work.
I'm working on a project with a coworker, and slowly I have grown to detest the man. We now call him Speedy Gonzalez... he's always on the go w/ way too much energy.

Its really getting to me. I've already expressed to everyone that I just want my mom and DH there. But it seems like it doesn't get through her head. I might have to carry a sign that says ONLY MOTHER AND HUSBAND ALLOWED IN DELIVERY ROOM.
OMG and my coworker is sooo slow its annoying. I don't have energy but when things need to get done here they get done. Maybe they can hang out w/each other and their qualities can rub off.
No sign needed.
Just don't call her when you go to the hospital. And tell her you left in an emergency and was not able to call anyone, because that was the last thing on your mind.
IF Buddy's with the fabulous LnA5909!!

i know im late but...
I cant stand my place of work. I want to quit and stay at home!
I agree with Sherly about not calling your cousin and agree with Nikki about not letting it bother you so soon. Just do what she did to you and leave it. Even thought two wrongs don't make a right, this is kind of personal so she should understand.
Virgina I am right there with you. I am about to pull my hair out from all the rediculous and stupid people that come in here everyday. I can't wait until October when I can take my vacation.
And now my confession (late as it is) I hate working in an office by myself all day long and working with all men and then going home to all men and two male dogs. lol There is not one other women here to vent to and I don't think that its healthy for me to be so stressed out as often as I am. (but it has gotten so much better since I joined the nest so thanks girls).
