Friday Confessions?

H and I talked about sticking to a strict budget so we can build our savings to buy a house eventually. Both of us right now would rather keep the money to go out drinking than save for a house. Unfortunately, we know we need to start being more responsible with money.

Re: Friday Confessions?

  • I despise when people do not know the correct use of the following words:

    advice vs. advise
    their vs. there
    lose vs. loose

    Drives me absolutely freaking nuts.

  • I have another one...

    While I understand my husband really is sick right now (he really is), I am about to murder him and hide the body in our vegetable garden.  I went home for lunch and he is literally dying on the couch, talking weakly and whining about how he doesn't feel good.  I wanted to punch him.  I haven't "felt good" since effing June.  Shut your trap and finish your part of the mother effing "to do before baby comes" list that you have been putting off since October!

    This isn't really a flameworthy confession: I've been reading a lot of articles about stress & anxiety lately. They all say to cut back on sweets and comfort food and to increase daily exercise. To that I say: F you!

  • I have 2.  

    I have been busting ass all day at long at work today and yet I know I'm going to leave here today with a huge pile of things that are unfinished. I've made an @ss ton of mistakes b/c I'm rushing and have spent probably an hour correcting the crap I messed up. I'm feeling like I suck at my job today!!!!

    Also, one of the ladies in my office had her 4 week old niece up here today and my baby rabies is soooo bad right now that I had to make myself leave the room. I feel like going home and tossing out my BC.

    I second this. And on that note I'm going to eat a doughnut.

  • I would rather spend more money now getting the baby's room ready, instead of spending the money on other household projects like painting, new faucets, lights, etc. I am having super anxiety about getting the room done, and I just don't care about the other house-projects anymore. I just want the farking room finished.

    I finally did buy a crib mattress, that made me feel a little-teeny bit better, but the only things we have for this baby is:

    1. Crib & Mattress (no bedding, and no other furniture)

    2. Bomber Jacket

    3. A sleeper MIL bought

  • I am tempted to go back to work for a day or two, then put in my two weeks notice so I don't have to repay my health insurance premiums that they have been paying for me.

    Although I am dreaming, I'd never be able to swing staying at home.

  • It's late in the day...but here are mine-

    I've been sitting in training for the past two days and want to literally strangle most of my coworkers because they like to hear themselves talk. I think it gives me high blood pressure.

    I'd also like to say F to my job and work from home as a cake baker! Yeah right, not gonna happen anytime soon! :(

  • I just put a giant list in my blog, inspired by this post :)
  • Great blog, Belle!

    I wish our babies were a bit older, because I would totally be up for watching them part time :)

     My Saturday Confession:
    I have a favorite pair of jeans from Express that fit me perfect before whitley, and while I can button them, I have megaa muffin top bec of the way my body changed, but I WILL fit back in them one day. Well yesterday I went shopping and they had those jeans marked down bec they are not selling them any longer, so I bought and bought 2 pairs in my old size bec I like them that much Embarrassed

  • Ok I'm late because H wouldn't let me nest last night...I had to go to Lowes. Blah!  So Brbride526 I agree, F my job.  I love to bake and have always had a silly dream of opening a bakery.  Not it is out in the open.  Also I have a wine hangover.  That is all.
  • Mine is that everyone better show up for Book Club tomorrow or I will be very upset! I'm really excited about the theme I've got going here....so consider this your warning!!!

    Big Smile
