We haven't done a confession session in forever! I think it's time for one...
Re: Confessions
- Some how I have gone from being the little sister to the big sister. It's very strange. My oldest sister is now asking me for advice and I'm the one doing everything first. It's very strange.
- Same sister picked her wedding location as the place where we went on our honeymoon. I will go anywhere she chooses to attend her wedding, but out of all the destinations she could choose this was the one I didn't want her to choose. I have not and will not tell her this.
- I want my MIL to stop asking me when I'm going to get pregnant.
-I want to sell our condo, but I don't. We don't have anywhere to live if we sell it soon. I'd also be kind of sad because I put so much work into it and I'm pretty proud of how it's turned out.
-I feel horrible because my MIL's bday was March 8th and we still haven't given her her present. I also haven't given her any of the things I got for her in Ireland, which was in February. I'm a bad DIL.
-I'm jealous that H gets to telecommute and I don't.
-I'm trying to get toned up for Vegas/summer and lose my winter weight, but all I want to do is eat.
I have more. Lots more...
I fired our food sales lady and don't feel bad about it at all. She was a complete moron and I said if she can't get an order right in March, she will be unbearable in July.
I got a season pass for the boardwalk and cannot wait to go on all the rides, possibly alone, but it's cool.
My one and only employee, besides my H, annoys me.
I'm procrastinating w/ important work and a quickly approaching deadline.
I HATE my step-son's mother. And her mother. Hate hate hate hate hate them. I hate them with a fiery passion. They are nasty, miserable, bitter women who can't and/or won't move on. They are horrible and sneaky and vindictive and make a hobby out of trying to ruin H's and my life. I could seriously write a book with all of the nasty things that they've done.
Ditto to the 100th power. DYFS was sent to my home 2 weeks ago from the psycho I have to deal with.
Don't let them know they bother you. You're the better person and your step-son will notice this.
Thank goodness I'm not alone in the world of crazy psychos and their ridiculous DYFS drama!! Yeah, I've learned it's best to just ignore them and go about my business, but man they get under my skin. My SS told me a couple of weekends ago, "Kristen, I love you, but don't tell mommy or grandmom that or I'll be in BIG trouble." Come on now, how freakin' wrong is that?
Same exact issues. They are told not to go anywhere alone with me or she will ground them. So they go home now and just lie about their weekend, since it's either get up at 6am and follow daddy around at the shop all day, or sleep in and spend the day on the boardwalk with me. The biatches don't realize all they are doing is hurting the kids.
I confess that I want to yell "just because you can, doesn't mean you should!" at DH's family. They all think it's cool to have kids that they're not mentally and financially ready to have. And then they want to tell me that they weren't trying to have a baby and they weren't using condoms or BC. The BC was making her sick, so she just stopped! Get off my back. I'll have a kid when I'm ready! Just because I think you should be financially stable, have a good job, and have your own benefits before you try and have a kid, don't make me feel like the black sheep!
I confess that I'm pissed off that I just spent my entire lunch break, and then some, interviewing for a pt job that only wanted to pay me $7.25 an hour. Thanks, but no thanks!
Oh - I have another very conscience-freeing confession!....
I've recently nixed 'fake' friends out of my life. I am no longer making an effort or putting up a fake front for someone who has no desire to care about our friendship. It feels great!
I've made room for new friendships
I want to skip class and go to C&P's for crab fries and beer.
I really really need a tan. I think I look horrible so pale. I'm so envious of you ladies that are going to warm places in the near future.
I think I'm about to lose it about my wedding video. I keep playing the conversation over and over in my head...the one we've never had because my videographer won't call me back. I was contemplating contacting Nydia Han to do some investigation.
I confess that:
-I keep on stalking petfinder.com, looking for my new puppy
-That I need to get my ass to the gym, and that I've probably been confessing the same things for months now, but just don't have any motivation
-That I don't care for the guy my sister recently started seeing. I'm trying not to judge, but I think she can do better.
- Even though I'm excited about my wedding I have many days where I wish me got married on an island like we wanted too
- I'm sick of being the person everyone comes to for help and advice but not once do those people ever offer it too me....it's really starting to get to me!
- We've been talking alot about TTC right after the wedding and I have this huge fear that I'm gonna have an issue that makes it difficult and it scares me so much
I love the idea of getting rid of "fake friends" I have some people that never once pick up the phone to see how I'm doing and I keep trying to just forget about them but I always end up calling them to see how they are...yup I'm a wimp!
Krista, I think they came out really nice. Don't be too critical on yourself because you look great. (I'm a photographer's blog addict, so I saw them yesterday.)
