Monday Morning Vent....whats yours?

Mine is not MM related. 

No matter what I do, the last year I just keep on gaining weight!  I changed my diet, etc etc.  Every time I get on the scale the number just stays the same or gets higher.  =(    I have never been this heavy, and its making me sad!  

Re: Monday Morning Vent....whats yours?

  • Aww I'm sorry honeybee.  I fluctuate weight myself.  Are you taking a multi vitamin / mineral supplement?  I switched to a higher quality one from a healthfood store and it really helped me shed some pounds.  Throw that scale out and just love yourself!

  • My Monday morning vent is coming back to work after having 3 days off!  This sucks - I am completely unmotivated (obviously since I am on the nest!)

  • My vent- coming back to work after 4 days off plus the weekend! My work had a fuel leak in the building so we were off since last Tuesday, paid thankfully. But it smells like a gas station in here now, it's gross.

  • My Monday Morning Vent is that we have a new baby at daycare who is 6 weeks old. His mom had never tried a bottle with him and now he is refusing to eat and she wont come feed him. Poor thing has maybe had 4 oz since 630 this morning. He has not stopped screaming. UGH!

    She shouldn't have a baby she refuses to come and feed. That is just cruel. Friggin' cruel. I would go buy some sensitive stomach formula and give him that. If the woman won't come and she didn't leave any pumped milk, than what choice do you have? This is detrimental to the baby. I am a BF proponent, but if the kid is starving, which he is, than he needs food.

    That is terrible!

    My vent is that a few of us just got a huge workload dumped on us, and it is urgent and immediate. Our boss sat down to have a meeting this morning, and said the 2nd round of this workload will come in May-July.  Well H and I just found out on Saturday that we're pregnant, and the estimated due date is June 7th.  But I don't want to tell my boss this soon. So instead I had to nod my head and agree with the dates and deadlines.

  • my vent is DD took off her bedtime diaper this morning and hit me in the leg with it.  Cotton pee particles went everywhere!  I didn't even know this was possible.  ICK!

    That would really suck!  Have you had your thyroid checked?  Sometimes that can effect your weight.

    Congrats to you and your H!!!  That is such exciting news!!  I wouldn't tell the boss this soon either.

  • leak in bathroom ceiling, plumber says it's not a plumbing issue. Roofer who installed our new roof 11 months ago claims it's not a roof issue. In the mean time I have a large hole in my bathroom ceiling until we can get this resolved. Finally got roofing company to come back out to look at it after threating to call a lawyer & city. But they still aren't taking responsibility for roof. They did put a cap on the vent stack that is leaking, we'll see if that fixes the problem. If not, we'll be calling the city building inspector for help.  
  • My vent is the government not knowing if it is "shutting down" or not.. My H will still be required to report for work and eventually will get back pay. (Another reason to have a decent E-fund).

    I know my MIL works for the government.  I was wondering how it was affecting others.  I'm pretty sure it will shut down by the articles I've been reading.  Neither party is compromising.  Big shock :)

  • This Monday was horrible. Just got back from a week vacation and first thing found out our contract is not renewed for 2014, so as of Jan 1 I will be out of a job, unless I find something else sooner. Thank goodness we've paid down our debt, have a budget we stick to, and have an efund. It sucks big time, but t could be worse.
  • I was in a car accident on 9/7, which I did not cause. The other driver and I have the same insurance company. He has delayed communication with them until the past few days and then continues to blame me for the accident. Our claims have gone to management.

    Ideally, I'd like for his liability policy to pay out and fix my car. But, if he is being such an air bag, then I'd like for each of our own collision policies to take care of our own vehicles. I do not want the company to cite me as causing this accident (the cop at the scene did not issue any citations and MN is a no fault state).

    I had it checked about 1.5 yrs ago and it was fine.  Didn't think to have that checked again. 
  • DH got a $300 "running a school bus stop sign" ticket. He's going to dispute it because the video shows he was actually past it when it came out (like that'll work). Also, we canceled Comcast and they said we didn't owe any equipment. Now we get a bill for $250 in equipment. Wtf.
