Re: FFFC!

  • Every time I go into Kohl's I go into the baby section. I tell DH it's to think of ideas for gifts for one of our nephews when really I am browsing for little outfits I will someday get to buy for my own child.

    Also, after work I got home, put on my most comfy sweats, sat out on my deck, and cried a little. Just because I couldn't hold it in anymore and had to be some place alone and peaceful.

  • The wife of a person in leadership at my church is a complete new mom AW (and was like that pregnant as well). I kind of want to punch her in the face. I know I'm not the only one in the congregation who is struggling and I wish she realized that not everyone can get/stay KU as easily as her.

    I completely understand. I am also very jealous of those going through IVF knowing that even if I was personally ready, I am so far away from it due to weight.

    I'm sorry you're dealing with disappointment. Much love to you. XOXO

  • This house we are building is going to be ridiculous for just the 2 of us. I am very nervous that some of our friends might judge us for it.

    It will be an amazing home to raise a family in, so I sort of feel like this is one huge CBH purchase, which makes me wildly uncomfortable. But we have saved up for this, and are at a place where this is the right decision for us.

    But still.

    Yeah... the last time I got a pedicure was about 4 years ago. The pedicurist was wearing latex gloves, and near the end, she had to get up and answer the phone, so she took off her gloves and left them on her stool. It was not until she put them back on that I realized she had at least two different colors of nail polish on them - neither of them the one I chose.

    Nope.
