Hey all! How's it going?
QOTD: What would you do if you discovered that your SO was smoking pot?
Re: Morning!
Hey, all's good here LO is having her morning naked time, she loves handing out on her play gym.
Last nights Lux class was good but DH didn't have a great time with LO. I think she cried for a large amount of the class BUT she did take her bottle.
QOTD: I'm not sure. I would probably leave it as long as it's not in the house and he didn't leave it lying where E could find it (best not n house).
Hey all, not much going on here, trying to get back into the swing of work and working out and it's just not happening. I've crashed at 8pm the last two nights (so since we arrived) and then keep getting up early, so I'm just not feeling it.
QOTD: Join in. If I found out afterwards I'd be annoyed he didn't tell me so I could join in. He will smoke a few joints a year, if that, so it's not a big deal to me. If he did it regularly, I'd have a problem with it and we'd have a serious discussion.
Good morning. Nothing exciting going on here today. I can feel myself getting BFs cold, so it should be full blown just in time for Paris on Friday
.
QOTD: I know that he's really not into drugs, so I would wonder why he was doing it. If it was a couple times with friends though, no big deal. If he was doing it any more than that then it would be a problem for me.
Good morning. I'm super tired today, fortunately I don't have much on my agenda. I rode my bike trainer for 45 minutes this morning, I might do yoga later, and other than that I'm just working.
QOTD: It depends on the context. If he was doing it regularly, during work hours, or before driving anywhere I'd be extremely upset with him. If it was like a once in a blue moon thing and he was responsible about it in terms of his chances of getting in trouble or it impacting his life in any way, then I wouldn't make a big deal about it.

Morning! Going to the doctor's for some tests and later searching for something similar to receiving blankets. It seems they are not popular here.
QOTD: If he was hiding it and doing it all the time there'd be a big talk to figure out what the deal is. If it's just every once in a while with friends and he's up front about it I don't see it as a big deal. He knows I hate the smell of any smoke though so he won't be expecting a kiss or anything! Also, I definitely wouldn't want it in the house.
Hopefully today will be better than yesterday. I found out one of the players in the programme I manage passed away on Sunday night. He was 21. I have to admit, that hit me harder than I anticipated. I hardly knew him, but .....
However, I turned that into a good session at the gym that I am feeling today.
QOTD: Even once and a blue moon, I would not be pleased. Years ago -- more than a decade -- I dated a pot dealer. Yes, I was in a phase and I want no association with pot or any drugs for that matter. I have few strict rules and drugs is one of them. Luckily for me, DH has even explored pot or anything, so I think I am safe.
Morning! DD slept 2 4-hour stretches last night with a 2-hour one tacked onto the end. It was the first time since April that I have been able to get 4 hours of sleep in a row (the first 4 hour stretch, which she does occasionally, is from 8-12, so I can't take full advantage of it). I'm guessing it was due to the vaccinations she got yesterday (the third round but the first that has made her sleep better at night!) and am wondering if I really have to wait until April before her next ones ;-)
QOTD: I would call a priest for an exorcism even though we're not Catholic. DH is militantly against any kind of smoking. He can sniff out a smoker from 500 yards away around several corners and can smell it if I was standing next to someone who was smoking at the bus stop. If I found out he was smoking anything, the only explanation would be that he was possessed, I think. Hence the priest.
Good morning!
M is much better today. This afternoon we're going to a new park in a nearby village with a friend and her son.
I have an interview tomorrow so I'll also be preparing for that.
QOTD: If he was hiding it from me I'd be upset. If he was just smoking once in awhile with friends, but was upfront about it I wouldn't care. I used to indulge once in awhile when I was younger, I don't find it is a big deal.
Morning ladies. Another busy day at work, with an offsite this afternoon. After weeks of feeling underutilized, now I'm pretty spread thin with a lot of deadlines coming up. I'm trying to avoid working late at night, but it may come down to that.
QOTD: Wouldn't bother me if it was an infrequent occurence. I'd be a bit worried if it was more regular, or interfering with work, since that's not really DH's personality.
Cecilia arrived 12 October 2012
Morning!
QOTD: Like most of you, I'd be perfectly fine with it if it was occasional, not interfering with daily life & if he was upfront about it: it's really no big deal to me. I would be very pissed if he did it in secret.
Hi all. My mom is here so we're going into town in a little while to do some shopping and then we're going to meet H for dinner.
QOTD: I'd be mad that he didn't share.
He'd never do it, though. It's not worth risking his job over.
Morning. Not much going on today. We babysat for some friends last night. Their one year old is teething and wehad a heck of a time trying to settle him. Poor guy was miserable, but H and I were cracking up (nervous laughter I think) thinking about what was in store for us.
QOTD: If it was very infrequent and he was honest about it, it wouldn't bother me. But he hasn't done it in a least a decade, maybe more, so I'd be really surprised.
I am having a meh day.
QOTD: I'd be surprised because that's not his style. I'd be annoyed if he was hiding it. I'd be concerned if and only if it resulted in problems, and I think for most occasional partakers, it doesn't. Cigarettes, on the other hand, I'd be LIVID.
Morning! :-) Today is a good day, nothing too exciting! Busy day at work and then heading to Zumba.
It's also my 3rd wedding anniversary with my DH :-) He's busy with grading, so hopefully we will do dinner this weekend!
QOTD: It would probably de-stress him, so I'd be fine with it! :-P Seriously though, ike the others said if he was hiding it, I'd be upset, otherwise, I wouldn't be freaking out or anything. We'd just have to have a discussion about it!

My Doha Adventures
Morning! Everything is going fine. We wanted to run a quick errand this morning before work only to discover how inconvenient Belgium is (I should have known) and the stores don't open until 9am or 9:30am. DH and I hung around and went into work late so we could pick up one more chair for our table. We have 6 people for spaghetti dinner & italian wine tonight, so we needed one more seat. Now we have two fancy desk chairs at the heads of the table, and 4 matching regular dining room table chairs. I'm ready to dinner party!
QOTD: I don't mean to sound like a total b.tch, but I would be PISSED. I've never done it, and I know DH only did it a few times in high school but wasn't impressed. I am very against smoking, not to mention that we're both not supposed to do it for our jobs. We'd be having a long conversation...
IN's October Siggy Challenge: Halloween Costumes
Still sick from a week ago and now so is DS and DH. Although, DH is doing better than me. Went to the Midwife today, and although I feel like crap LO is still awesome. We are laying low as we are sick.
QOTD: I would not believe it. This would be so extremely out of character. He would not even do it for medicinal purposes, even if I encouraged him.
