FRIDAY CONFESSIONS

Re: FRIDAY CONFESSIONS

  • My husband wants to throw a birthday party at our house either this weekend or next for his grandmother who is turning 95, and is giving me the silent treatment because I said that I don't want it here.  I'm having a baby in a week or less (I'm scheduled for a c/s on the 12th), I'm tired, I have a shitton of things to do.  I don't want to cook and clean and have a bunch of people over.  His parents have a nice house, why can't they have the party there?
    Yeah, that shit would not be happening in my house either. H just dropped the bomb on me 45 minutes ago that his boss is coming over tonight. Our house is a DISASTER, ugh.

    Oh hell no.  You play the pregnancy card on that one and you have every right to.

    I've been debating whether or not I should apply to get the state license to be a school counselor. I have all of the education and experience to apply for it. My confession is that I'm afraid to tell my H because he will probably roll his eyes and think that I don't know what in the world I want. That would normally seem kind of shitty but the problem is that he's right, and I wouldn't blame him for thinking this is just another idea I came up with to figure out what I want to do with my life when I grow up. I do this to him all the time.
    What kind of commitment would it take? It sounds more like opening more doors for yourself.  If you already have the education, I don't see how this could really be a bad thing.
    It really wouldn't take that much commitment.  It's just a matter of that a new idea comes to me every single day about what I want to do with my life.  I'm pretty sure my H has stopped listening to me about my career path.  He's more like, "Make a decision then shit or get off the pot."  I've been such a flake lately.  I have no idea what I want to do with myself.

    @RiverPlate Your H is smoking crack with Rob Ford. That's the only explanation for his behavior.

    Andplusalso, I cannot wait until scientists figure out a way for men to get pregnant because then I'll be planning GIANT SOIREES when they're 39 weeks pregnant. If I get lip, I'll just be like

    @Shepherdjel  me too. It's been way too long since I logged my books. Its on my to do list but I have been avoiding that one.

    @MrsJenE, I say do it. It doesn't hurt. I am the same way coming up with grand ideas of what I could do for a living. Who knows, you may do it and realise you love it.

    I don't think it's a bad thing.  We all get to waffle for awhile. 

    I get that way sometimes with J.  He stops listening.  So usually, when I finally decide, I've already committed myself and I'm all like
