Open Letter Thursday
All those things you've wanted to say to the people around you? Have it, ladies,... vent away!
Re: Open Letter Thursday
Dear A's Mom: You were not a good mother. You were probably the worst mother I've ever known. So stop posting on A's facebook like you were the most amazing mother in the world. Seriously? You went to PRISON while she was in HIGH school leaving her to raise your infant. I'm glad you are out now and want to be a part of her life, but STOP BEING SO WEIRD already.
Dear coworker: The haircut did not look good at Kate Gosselin. It looks even worse on you.
Dear hubby: Please let us go on a mini-vacation. Just for a few days. I need time off.
Dear Dad (biological)--
Why is it that all of the sudden after two years, you feel the need to call me up and leave a message about how we need to talk about life things? Im sorry but i just dont know how i feel about you. You have relentlessly screwed me over and messed with my mind and i really dont know if i want to go through that again right now.
Dear baby,
Thank you for letting me sleep the last two nights without waking up. If your that little tingling feeling in my stomach, can i just get a swift kick to know for sure it is you
Love-your crazy mommy
Dear company,
Either offer me a really good salary that I can't turn down or something really low so I can easily make the decision if I want to stay home with Declan or not.
Signed, A good employee
Dear Declan,
PLEASE go back to sleeping all night. You're killing me here waking up at 2AM!
Love, Mommy
Dear Hubby, please quit being such a picky eater! It's so annoying. I don't know why you think it tastes different than the first time I made it. Just eat it damn it!
Dear Doctor, please don't take so long to get me my results this time. Last time was not very nice of you to make me wait a week.
Am I the only one who, for the most part, has a "if it's cooked, you eat it" policy? LOL That's the way it was growing up for both of us... so I know he claims he doesn't like XYZ, but then I try cooking it differently. Now he likes cucumbers sometimes, even said he'd eat tomatoes sometimes, eats salmon (might not love it, but eats it), LOVES sweet potatoes, and even acorn squash. LOL He said to me last night "I'm kind of pissed... all these years I said I hated sweet potatoes and I actually really like them. All those years I WASTED and could've been eating them!" LOL Silly husband.
Greg will tell me if he doesn't like a recipe I make. The only thing he's REALLY dragging his feet on is fish. And truthfully, I can't seem to make that at home to save my life because it ALWAYS smells horrifically fishy and tastes nearly as bad as it smells. LOL
I haven't really been cooking much anymore either. We've had to fill the gas up on the grill twice this year b/c we've been using it so much...and I don't know why, but grilling is "man's work" and Mike's been doing it. I'll get some veggies done (sometimes) or something small, but for the most part, he's been doing dinner since March.
I really need to start helping out around the house more.
This wasn't even a letter...maybe more of a confession. Darn, shoulda saved it for tomorrow!

Dear self:
Apparently, it's not safe to assume that ALL 6 of the containers (same size, same color even) that are all grouped together are the same thing (even if you know that you've got BOATLOADS of stew & chili leftover in there.)
Next time check... because borrowing 10 cents from a CW so you can have more than the container of salsa you accidentally grabbed as a lunch sucks. BIG TIME. As did having poptarts for lunch.
Your dumbassss self.
Dear Neighbors:
I understand your drug habit is important to you but you really need to mow your grass and get the trash out of the front of your house. You've now brought lots of big rats to the neighborhood - a very NICE neighborhood with NICE houses. Move to the ghetto if you want to live like that but get out of my neighborhood.
Your unhappy neighbor.
Dear God, thank you for my good news today.
Dear David,
Plesae stop waking up between 1-3 in the morning, screaming bloddy murder, throwing a hissy fit in your crib and then not stopping until Daddy picks you up and brings you into mommy and daddy's bed.
Dear bosses,
PLease let me know whether or not I'm getting a bonus. It's supposed to get direct deposisted on the 30th. I'm pretty sure payroll had to know the amount, why can't you just tell us?
Dear DH's bosses,
You suck! Two years in a row w/o a raise and no bonus. You keep adding more and more work but don't acknowledge your appreciation at all.
Dear AICPA,
Thank you for giving this girl a passing grade
Dear MIL,
Stop being so damn pushy. David is not your child!
