FFFC

i feel fat, not pregnant

i'm drowning at work and have no motivation

dh doesn't even initiate sexy time any more bc he's been shot down so much in the past few months Sad

Re: FFFC

  • Part of me secretly wants to stop looking for a new job and just grudge it out where I am until the baby comes, then I can collect unemployment after baby is born and have a longer maternity leave with baby Embarrassed

  • Drowning at work, no motivation also- except I should considering 10% of my company got laid off this week.

     

  • I got put on high blood pressure meds yesterday b/c my BP is still through the effing roof and didn't even consider telling my doc how much coffee I drink and asking if that has anything to do with it because frankly, I don't want to know. I'm not giving it up.

    Also, I fell down the stairs yesterday, babe in my arms, and once I determined she wasn't hurt, just scared, I decided not to tell Clint because I didn't want to hear a lecture on how I need to be more careful.

    That's probably what I would do! haha

    I started a countdown of how many work days I have left before Margot's due date. 65 and counting.... and yes, I spent way too much time at work figuring this out when I should have been working on my new class materials.

  • I wouldn't mind if I got pregnant again. 

    I don't want to go back to work.  I would love to be a SAHM.

  • I asked H what if I didn't want to go back to work when i get pg and have a baby.

    He said it's not an option (i;m the breadwinner).

    I wanted to tell him to go screw. 

  • I can't stand nor tolerate women who base their mood and all of their self worth on their current weight.

    If it wasn't for her voice, I'd kinda like Sarah Palin.

  • I'm mad at DH over my birthday plans. I just told him that I wanted to drive up the scenic North Shore, and spend the day in Duluth. He's left it completely up to me where we go eat dinner. When I asked him what he had planned he said "well, I'm going to drive you". Gee, if I wanted a taxi service I'd just call one up.

    Not to mention that we had a huge party for his birthday with a ton of people over. That's not what I want, but I figured he'd at least make a suggestion of a restaurant to go for dinner. humphf.

  • I don't want to be a lawyer anymore.  I keep telling people, "sure I do that!" and then hope they never call me for the work.  I want to grow the face painting business and Reef Botanicals and never have to look at a legal document again.  I'm over it after 15 years.  But I'm scared to really give it up.  Even without "a job" and even though the face painting is probably my primary income right now (yes, really), I'm scared to give up the "real" profession.

    And Melissa, falling with the baby isn't so bad.  My dad once fell down the stairs with my sis when she was a baby... he fell backwards and she rode his belly the whole way down.  She was fine.  His back & tush HURT.

  • Melissa- My mom tripped while walking up some bleachers and threw me over her shoulder. I flew through the air and landed on my butt, biting through my tongue. This was all to say, don't feel too guilty Stick out tongue

    If I don't hear something about our holiday schedule for work soon I might seriously go postal! I put in a request back in August because I really want to go home for Christmas this year. I still don't know if my date will be approved!

    I figured out my EDD if I get KU this cycle. It would be the 4th of July Embarrassed

    Oct.'13 Siggy Challenge: Cheers to Easter!
  • I'm so glad I'm not the only one that is miserable at work.

    My job fired my boss last week (who I loved) and changed all our upper management.  I was promised a promotion I now am no longer getting nor am I getting the raise attached to it.  Then they gave me impossible goals to reach for our next quarter.

    I cannot wait to go on maternity leave.  I wish it was February already.

    I think we all need a vacation!

  • H hates his job, I told him to quit ( hes the only one in his position ) for a few day and get another hefty raise, then I'd totally go part time at work ... he didn't agree.

    H is working, I have been sitting on my as in the recliner since 5:30 watching back logged episodes of Teen Mom, Hoarders and Oprah ... mmm laziness !

    I really need to do laundry because I have to work for 4 hours tomorrow and I don't think I have any underwear !!

     

  • I was going to do a good long workout once Nate was in bed. Instead, I drained the hot water heater into the tub and laid in there for about an hour. And I can't do it now. Who exercises after taking a bath?

    (The next one is a TMI FFFC.)

    I have had accidents 3 times in the past week (twice while sneezing, once during a coughing fit). I think it has a lot to do with the fact that I'm no longer sitting for the majority of the day. Being on my feet more is working those muscles a lot more than I thought it would. The confession part is that I haven't been as diligent as I used to be at doing my exercises. So it's kind of been a wake-up call that I need to keep working on building up my muscle tone down there.

    Two of my cousins were talking about needing to use panty liners after having children because it's never the same. This scared the crap out of me, but I think they were partially kidding. They did say that it gets better eventually. Silver lining?
