let's hear 'em ladies!! i wanna read some juicy stuff!!! 
Re: CONFESSION TIME!
Lets see.....this could be long...
I am so over the way my co-worker acts around me. She doesnt follow through with anything. She always thinks she can do whatever, come whenever ,leave whenever just bc she has been here longer. UM no. I get here earlier than her and she gets to take lunch before me...what? and the fact that I clean the entire front office every day to come into it being a mess stuff pilled up everywhere bc your to lazy to do anything with it! wow ok im done with that one.
another one is why in the world is our money not covering bills like it used to...what is going on! we make enough to cover everything and for some reason we are coming up way short the past month....ahhh I hate fighting w/DH about money
last one....if I could I would be jumping DH tonight but my little friend is here and i cant!
I feel ya on the stupid coworkers...I'm currently ready to karate chop my stupid receptionist in her ugly face. OMG. She is SO rude... I mean just now as i'm typing this she is checking a patient out and talking on the phone w/ i assume one of her friends and completely ignoring the patient.. UHM HELLO STUPID!!!! and she is SOOOOO loud. I mean she literally yells when she answers the phone, or when she talks.. I don't know if she has a hearing problem or not but she needs to get that checked. We have another co worker who is super loud but she has a hearing problem and she said that is why she is so loud- i don't know but holy gosh ... i can't even hear myself think she is SO loud, and i can forget trying to hear anyone on the phone!!!!
I don't know why I bother telling her anything bc she doesnt listen to me- I audit all of our patients charts for errors, and this morning i found the same error multiple times, so i let our girls know they need to be more careful- i might as well have been talking to the wall. UGH!.....why should they care about the errors, they know im going to come behind them and audit their charts and fix any errors...can we say annoying!
and once again i am starting my period before it is time.... I was on it for about 35 days, 'ive been off since last monday, and now its starting again. AGH!
I confess that I am thinking a lot about babies lately!
more than I should be since we aren't going to start TTC for at least a year, but I stalk the getting pregnant board all the time, and we've already chosen baby names.
I've started charting, more so we can start to not use condoms, since neither of us has ever done it without one. I don't want to go on the pill again since it makes my sex drive go WAY DOWN and if we are planning to TTC in a year or so I don't want to have it mess up my natural cycles. ?So, with the charting and stalking the preggo board, I have that urge way more than I normally do, even tho we are not ready financially, house wise, or in general, I still want it.
Also I confess that I am totally sucking lately at the weight loss thing. I am heavier than I was when I graduated high school (by about 20 pounds) which is no big deal really since I was heavier than that and lost weight right before grad, but I still wanted to go to my reunion thinner than I was in high school. All that's changed is my hair. (it was super short and spiky 10 yrs ago)
Anyway, the weekend in Boston was great as far as exercise, but crappy as far as food. I have 0 will power when there is junk in the house. and I eat when I'm bored.... ugh!
I know I HAVE to work out, but I just have 0 motivation. I think once I get back from Canada at the end of June, I will start looking for a job, and then maybe I can get in a routine of working out after work each day.
At least there is bowling tonight and that is ?SOMETHING physical.
*sigh*?
to make matters worse...i get the cold shoulder for taking 10 mins longer for lunch...HOLY CRAP! you just took a 45 min lunch when your supposed to take a 30min and you were 30 mins late this morning?? what gives...
and DH knows im stressed and in an awful mood so he says he is going to hang out at his dads until I go to bed tonight. I wish I could just go home right now.
Kevin was not feeling well yesterday, his throat was scratchy and his nose was runny (aka he has allergies) but he is SUCH a wimp! It's usually me that is sick, we've been together 3ish years and he has only been sick one other time but good Lord... he called in sick to work, laid around and napped all day. And it's not like he has it tough, or had to get up early or has been more busy that usual. And he doesn't get paid for that, so now we're missing out on a day's pay. *sigh* men.??
I must confess that I hate, hate, HATE moving. I have been clearing out my apartment in Seattle and came down to Portland to do the same thing at my parent's house. So I'm not quite to packing yet but still this is driving me crazy. I hate being in this gray zone between places and feeling like nothing is going to last either.
I just spent a few days with DH and some members of his family in St. Louis over the long weekend. It was nice, but then again FMIL came out with the first hints about having a baby. Good Lord woman! We have been married for barely 3 months, we are living on opposite sides of the country and I am starting a job where I will get crucified if I get knocked up during the first two years. I feel like I have to be polite about it, but she has an older son (like 35) who got married last summer and I'm like why don't you hassle him and his wife about it? Drives me crazy!
I'm getting kinda burned out at work and I would love to be taking a summer vacation but we're not. DH doesn't have alot of time off left because of the HM.
Got in a dumb argument with DH last night before bed. I asked him if he wanted to go to a baseball game and he says no they suck. So I say if they suck why to we have to watch them every damn night?? He didn't like that, yeah real mature I know.
We have cake all the time at work for b-days and its annoying and doesn't help my diet. I got the email that we are having cake at 2:30 great. I told DH and he says ooh I want cake bring me home a piece. So I guess I will bring him some and hopefully not eat it myself.
Michelle - at one of my past jobs, I think we managed to have cake, donuts, or some other sweet for some reason about every other day. By the end of that, I felt just ill. That's SO tough when everyone else is having sweets (espeically if it's a birthday or congrats occasion) and you have to try and say no. GL with that one.
It sounds like there's a lot of general burnout this week.... well I feel it a bit too. I hope the weekend comes quick for everyone!
Confessions
1) I've been spending TOO much time at work looking at stuff for these b-pics. It's crazy, but suddenly I have these photos to plan and get ready for and I just am so focused on it.
** Not a confession, but DH's Dad's surgery went well. The cancer was further along than they thought, but it was still contained in the one area they were operating on. Everything should be good after the recovery process!!
I'm tired of not being able to find a job. I feel like the money I wasted getting (both) my degrees isn't going to lead to anything, especially my MBA.
I'm getting very anxious for our HM and feel like I'm slacking at work, but than again I've felt like that since I finished school and am not writing papers during my spare time at work.
My mom thinks I'm pregnant since I have to pee every two seconds (got up three times Monday night to pee, and twice last night), so much so she tested me for a UTI and ran a pregnancy test. It would be nice if I was pregnant, but I think that's wishful thinking.
