Monday Confessions?

I am bored...let's hear some confessions! :)

-I watched an on demand marathon of the Duggar show (with the 18 kids).  I got sucked in and couldn't stop!   They seem like such happy people and I found myself liking them.

-I ate about 12 pigs in a blanket appetizers at a bridal shower this past weekend.  

-I am secretly praying for rain this weekend bc I have a "family portrait" scheduled outdoors with the IL's .  We all have to wear white shirts and jeans.  Mind you, it will be all adults (IL's, SIL, H and me), so I think the whole matching outfit thing will look ridiculous.   Plus, I hate white shirts...it is an unflattering color...

Re: Monday Confessions?

  • hahahaha!  you crack me up.  

    no confessions, other than the fact that:

    1.  i am secretly hoping my husband takes a job in NY and we can move there because i am bored in the suburbs. 

    2.  i also really want to get pregnant and we are in limbo with our health insurance.  i really want my next baby to be within 18 months of the first but time is ticking. 

    3.  i have been binge eating and i have no idea why

    4.  i have decided that i now HATE baseball. we have to watch every baseball game cause of my husbands obsession with his fantasy league and i am sick of it.....trying to have a good attitute though because we are taking HQ to her first game on the 4th of july and i really want to get her a little baby phillies hat!

  • -I haven't even had the baby, and I'm already dreading coming back to work! I'd feel much better if I was heading into a teaching career - but that's obviously up in the air. I'm getting discouraged because I know how competitive it is. I don't want to be stuck here forever : (

    -I sometimes milk the pregnancy thing with my H, and I think he knows it. obviously most of the time, I do need the help! 

  • These are good ones. Good luck with the photo shoot, Krista!!!

    -I'm mad at DH for not getting our dog tested sooner. Of course our dog's health is #1, but now we have to put other things on the back burner b/c of the cost of the heartworm treatments.

    -I was a complainer this weekend. It was my bro's graduation, and I kept complaining I was wet (we stood in the rain for over an hour to get into the graduation), cold, hungry, and tired. I was miserable to me around, and I feel terrible now.

  • 1.  I am skipping out of work with the excuse that something came up....the something I speak of is technically that I am straving and am going home to get a snack.

    2.  I am desperate to finish my masters.  I keep putting it off because I honestly can't imagine going 4 months without my income to do an internship.  This might be the worst catch 22 I have ever faced.

  • Krista, that sounds horrible!  You're lucky that your IL's wanted you in the pics ;-)

    1. I didn't get anything done today.

    2. I vented to H about the baby shower I went to on Saturday being horrible and the dad heard me.  It wasn't that it was bad, it was that it was 4 hours long, I didn't feel well and I didn't know anyone.

    3. I don't even want to move anymore.  I can't even find the time to clean our small place now--how the h am I gonna clean something that's twice as big plus a yard to maintain?

    4.  I feel super duper fat.  I've been eating like a cow and I busted another pair of capri's this weekend with my fat @ss...see blog. :(

     

  • I have another one - I want to be a Real Housewife. I've realized I'd be very content staying at home with my son and having lots of money...lol. A girl can dream...
  • I confess that I don't want to go back to work tomorrow and that the thought of going back makes me want to cry.  I have no idea why.  I feel emotional.
  • Im going to Pittsburgh on wednesday to visit family and Im a little upset DH isnt coming with me.  We were planning on this trip back in march, but since then had decided not to go to save gas money and spendng money for the house fund.  well my mom called last week and said my dad couldnt go out with her because his knee is in such pain (hes getting a repalcement next week) So last minute I decided to drive out with her so she had some company(and I wouldnt be spending money for gas since she was driving, and pretty much paying for everytihng).  I really want to go out because a lot of family I havent seen in a while will be there, and DH said he thought he could come.  well now he cant.  He says he cant take three consecutive days off work.  He wasnt denied the days, he just out right decided he wasnt going to take those days and didnt ask his boss at all.   Now i know it was decided with only 9 days notice, but if it was his family he would expect me to go, with even less notice and be able to take the days.  And then this mornig decided he was going to take the day off just because.  that I think bothered me the most. 
  • - I ate so bad this weekend...it's involved lots of chocolate, french fries at 1 in the morning, and a huge breakfast buffet!!  and I don't feel like doing anything to make up for it

    - I'm so nervous about my fiancee expanding the gym...I know you have to take risks in life but anything with money makes me nervous

    -After having the weekend away with my fiancee I just want to run away from everything and hide out with him and leave everything and everyone behind...yes it would be selfish but god it's so nice not having to worry about anything or anyone

  • I know what you mean, Kristin...sometimes I wish we could just stay on vacation, or stay down the shore and not have to worry about money or bills or work.  I could def be a Real Housewife too, Toni!!
  • haha going along with what people were saying about living at the beach/on vacay or being a "real housewife"....

    ...I confess that I sometimes buy mega millions tickets and get myself all pumped up about what I am going to do with the $$ when i win.  I have spent car rides home from 7-11 thinking about how I am not going to lend people $$ bc they say that is bad, but I will buy gifts.  How I don't want a huge mansion quite yet, so I will buy a modest single family home to start with.  How I will donate $$ to my current job, but say sorry, I am not coming in ever again. 

    ...then I watch the drawing and have all my dreams crushed!  Gosh, I need to win the lottery!

    I do the exact same thing.  I have the house picked out I'm going to buy, the car, several new handbags, the list goes on and on.

    I'd be surprised if someone DIDN'T do this.  It's such a let down!  LOL

  • I want to move to Raleigh NC tomorrow.  I already found the house I want.  The H just needs to be transferred there.  He's going to go look to see what's down there tomorrow when he gets to work. Everyone keep there fingers crossed.
