Confession Thursday
Re: Confession Thursday
The property management in my office changed the paper towels in the bathrooms. They are thinner and not nearly as absorbent as the others. It is really bothering me.
My confession - Hi, my name is Willy and I have OCD. Don't change my shiz, I can't deal!
It's for one of my bridesmaids. She's having the baby with her H's best friend (obviously her and her H are no longer together but are not divorced yet). I don't want to be judge-y but I just...I'm finding it hard to be happy for her.
I find it really hard not to judge my sister's whole family. They are just a big huge train wreck.
Most recently my sister's divorce to H#2 was finally finalized after 6 years. But I really hope it doesn't mean she's going to marry her current BF. He's a piece of crap. Example, her DD17 was sick and BF and DS21 were home. She called her BF to pick her up since we was at work over an hour away... does BF go get her? No... he wakes my nephew up who said no way... so my sister had to get our dad to go get her... and he's 45 mins away. WTH! He was so pissed to find 2 grown a$$ men at home... Her BF was also chugging moonshine on our vacation a few years ago at 10am. He had 2 kids (8 and 10), and had our stepkids, this was a FAMILY vacation, not get drunk everyday vacation. Yes I had a few winecoolers - when the kids were asleep. You are 5-10 years older than me, GROWNUP!
Oh and my nephew is moving in with his GF... been living at home for a year after his fiancee left him, and still doesn't have a car. He drives my parent's truck, leaving them with 1 car. BUY A CAR and stop mooching. He had a good job installing fire sprinklers, with benefits and quit because they wanted him to go to new jersery (1.5 hours away) for a job. You go where there's work.
Sorry that turned more into a rant...
Frustrated w/ H a little. I think he is feeling pressured w/ the TTC. He thinks that my charting is planning it out too much. I told him I know it could still take a year for us to conceive even by doing it but at least I now know what's going on with my body. I confessed to him that it makes me a little resentful when he talks like its not a big deal if it takes a long time because if it were up to me, it wouldn't have taken 5 years to get married and another year before trying. It hasn't been up to me though. I know it's a not irrational though and I wouldn't have wanted to do either without H on the same page but it frustrates me. End rant.
@Seipel12 Overalls look terrible! I used to have brown corduroy overalls in middle school. I cringe when I look at myself in pictures with them on.
My confession is I have grown to hate Halloween. I loved it growing up and when I was in college. Now that I am a teacher, it's the worst day of the year. The kids are wild, you can't get anything productive done and then they're all hyped up for like 3 days after. I was thankful last year that school was closed on Halloween due to the hurricane.
I want to love it, I really do. I want a house so I can decorate and have trick or treaters and smile when they ring my bell. I just want to call in sick during the day...
ETA- I feel like the Grinch.
I also confess that it really makes me angry that people bring huge groups of kids into our neighborhood to go treat or treating. I truly think that it is sooooo rude. I grew up in a neighborhood that sucked to go trick or treating in because the houses were so far apart. We were never allowed to go to another neighborhood. Maybe I'm just a Halloween grinch too. I really don't ever want to hand out candy again.
I wanna be included...my email is poof
