Flameless/Unflameless Friday!
Since some of us need it and some of us are celebrating some future little ones!!! I thought we could do a blend of FF and UFF... !

Re: Flameless/Unflameless Friday!
Unflameless...
I am super excited to have the kids here this wkend... we're celebrating their bdays and got the 'kitchen' room at buca di beppo and then we might see that dragon movie (I love me some kid movies)...
...and I finally finished week 5-after redoing it many times... of C25K! Was hard, but...
...and my clothes are feeling looser, so I feel like I'm on the right track with working out, diet wise!...
Flameless...
FACE/BODY-um, can you get under control?... I gained a pound-how?!? I can't wait to go to the doc's today and see if I should get tests done... this is ridiculous! Completely!!! face---you're more red than you were before you went to dermatologist-WTF!
SSister... Your FB comments are just odd... "Marriage means commitment... of course, so does insanity." wha?! I liked the time before when you stated you were single, but yet you weren't... interesting...
Work... either sh!t or get off the pot. I am so stressed from not knowing what's going to happen... when someone says-if we stay the same, we might not be open in 2-3 mos... um. you have me confused... So, my other choice... return to teaching. Of course, last night and in the paper... no positions are open... teachers are getting cut, etc... yah. nice I pick such good career choices. (cracks neck).. no stress... thanks.
Dear car alarm and stupid teenagers standing outside our window last night - I hate you. I hate every inconsiderate douche in this city. And since that seems to be about 80% of the population, I hate a lot of people. Stop stressing out my poor husband. He works like a crazy man and needs his sleep.
Husband - please go home at mid-day today. I know you like to man up, but I don't want you to be cranky this weekend. (Yes, babycakes, you sometimes get a little cranky. It's ok, I still love you.)
Plan to leave - Stop freaking me out! I'm excited, but I want to cry when I think about spending extended amounts of time away from J. I'm a baby, I now.
Universe - Job up north, please? I'm a wicked good employee. And I say wicked!
Woohoo! I'm glad your hardwork is starting to pay off!
We're back from the family visit/babymoon/work conference in Florida.
Let's just say that it wasn't as romantic as I would have hoped for. We had a nice time, but the first days were spent with family (at their houses) and the next 3 nights DH was too tired to even try to be romantic.
I was underwhelmed by the Magic Kingdom...I guess I was expecting so much more...but it was a Disney themed Six flags/King's island...glad my old college roomie is an "Imagineer" there and got us in for free.
My FIL is a crabby old man with no filter. He actually told me "look what your 2 college degrees got you...no job" and that I should look at taking a job in North Dakota and commute weekly from the Twin Cities (6-8 hours away)...yeah...with a baby. Douche!
TTC #1 13 cycles, CP 6/09, TTC #2 1 cycle
CDing, EP'd for 13 months for #1, BFing for #2
Pregnancy Hypertension - inductions at 39w, I grow big babies: DD was 9 pounds 1 ounce 22 inches, DS was 11 pounds even 22 inches - both vaginal deliveries
Thanks! it's a slooowwww road, though.
Softskate, your FIL needs to go.to.hell. WTF?
Dear stupid employees, If you two idiots don't quit, I will fire you. Get it? Don't make me spend my last week here doing all kinds of HR paperwork, mkay? It's not a good thing for you or me, and I've been wasting too much time on your bs, which is not nice for my good employees. kthnxbai.
Softskate - grandpa needs a throat punch. And I agree about MK...I liked epcot the best
unflameless: DH, you are adorable. When you said you're excited to have a "little buddy" someday and that your life will be so much more meaningful when that happens, it made me melt. You're gonna be an awesome daddy
flameless: self, please lose weight. now. DH, please lose weight. now. if we don't get it together before having kids, it's not gonna be pretty.
Softskate- WTF is wrong with him? UGH, I'm so sorry he says things like that.
Flameless- work, you suck. And co-worker, you had SO better get on the ball....you haven't pulled your weight in about 6 months, something's gonna give soon unless you change.
Dad- you need heart surgery. That's a fact. In the recent past you were sort of making a turn in your health and trying to eat better and lose weight. You felt better then. How come now that you KNOW you have a serious health problem are you continuing to load up on salt and fat and sweets all.the.time? You're back to your old, bad habits, and you don't even care. And, you even shoot down my efforts to live and eat healthy. WTF? I'd like you to be around for a LONG TIME, I wish you could see that.
Unflameless- Wow, I'm in such amazement at what's happened. I can't believe that we have been so blessed. I just hope each day that things are going well, and that everything is healthy. DH and I both go back and forth between excitement and freaking out, but we both can't wait to experience this and start this new chapter in our lives.
