Confessions?
You know what to do!
In the interest of saving time and space I will write my confession right here!
I can't believe it is 2 weeks til Christmas and I have only purchased a few small things for DH. We haven't done ANY shopping for anyone else yet, although we do know the big things we are getting.
I don't know what to get DH for a big thing.... I have given him a ton of ideas for me, but I only know 1 other thing I am getting for him (the move "Inglorious Basterds" comes out on DVD on Tuesday)
And, we haven't even thought of Christmas cards yet. How did this year fly by so fast?????

Re: Confessions?
Hey - thanks for remembering Jenny! I can't believe it's Thursday already. Good luck getting everything organized for Christmas!
I confess I am annoyed by the H&F Board lately. Stupid confession, and it's not really bothering me, but I just find it crazy the things that some people think. If you're curious and bored... read the monster post entitled, "Food YOU Won't Touch." It's from today. Skip the middle and go straight to my responses at the end if you get bored:)
I don't have much real stuff to confess, hence my silly confession above. Other than... man I can't believe how cold it is here. -12 this morning on my way to work with almost a 20 below windchill. Brrrr and Grrr...
I confess that I wrote in my blog that Kevin and I have decided to TTC and I forgot that my one real life friend reads it. She texted yesterday and said she was really mad at me for not telling her and so on and so forth. But I wasn't really telling anyone. I don't want to make a big deal of it and have people asking, "so you KU yet?"
I have my interview tomorrow morning and I am really hoping it works out. Fingers crossed!!?
Meag,
I read that and wondered because you hadn't mentioned anything here that I was aware of. Still. Your friend should understand that it is a pretty private thing. And just because you have decided to start trying doesn't mean its going to happen tomorrow!
*hugs*
good luck on the interview! (and on the TTC!)
LOL Lisa, I started to read that article and then quit. I was like Uhm, well i must be a fatty mcfat unhealthy freak because I eat alot of the stuff that they were saying they "WONT" eat this, and they "WONT" eat that...whatever. I am going to find your response now.
Good luck with your interview!!!!
I just finished reading that whole post. Good grief. There is one person imparticular in that post that I do not care for. She is rather aggressive.
Oh confessions:
Today is my 25th birthday. I'm sick, which really sucks. But here is my confession: I am pissed at DH's family. It's 9pm and not one single one of them has called me to say happy birthday, no one has text me, or anything. I made birthday cakes for everyone this last year.... His mom, whose birthday is Oct 6, his brother, whose is November 8, and his grandmother whose b-day is Nov 21...I made a cake, and went out to dinner for every single one of their b-days. And not one of them could call and tell me happy birthday, seriously? ......
His mom told me last weekend "well I wanted to take ya'll out to dinner on Friday night, but you are already going out with your dad, and since its YOUR birthday , I guess you can choose who you want to go to dinner with"
uhm, okay?
When we went out to dinner for MIL bday alot of the family went, and we went to cracker barrell.....they started singing happy birthday, very loudly, and very opera-y right in cracker barrell. This is just not my cup of tea. I am very reserved, and quiet, and I surely do not like making a scene. My face was SO red... So ever since Oct they've been saying they are going to take me to dinner and sing very loudly.... (and they would, because they intentionaly try to get a reaction out of me...this would not be the first time his mom has tried to get a reaction out of me)..... so i've been objecting to going out to dinner w/ them. I have no desire to be embaressed, i'm not going to let them.
So I don't know if they are mad at me or what, but i'm mad at them. Chris and I have been together 5 yrs this coming March, and i don't think they've ever said happy birthday to me.
Chris told me this year it would be different because "We are married".... He said he is mad at them, because he expected more.." honestly, I didn't. I talked to him earlier this afternoon while i was at work, and i told him no one from his family had called me or anything, he was surprised. I told him not to call them and say anything to them...i wanted to see what would happen. I was right. I'm not stupid, I know they don't like me, i can see right through the fake. I'm over them.
sorry this was long. I guess my feelings are hurt because this last year I felt like I really went out of my way for their birthdays. Oh well.
Happy Belated Birthday!!!!!!!!!
I guess my confession is Christmas related.....I am so tired to Dh's mom trying to control EVERYTHING!
She calls me last night and I didnt get to the phone fast enough, so Dh calls back and she doesnt answer...great. I call her a few mins later and she goes I just want to make sure you are still coming over on Christmas....uh we dont want to but yes we will be there. And make sure you bring 2 presents...cause we are doing chinese christmas....ummm ok. Then she tells me if you want to do something for our step-nephew you can...what the hell. Dh and I both want to stay home all day on Christmas and let Kelsey play with her stuff and relax...but noooooo.
I am just bitter cause everytime I go over there I have an allergy attack....I am allergic to something in her house...no fail within 5 mins I cant breathe in there...it sucks. And I have to sit there and deal cause I dont want to be a complainer.....
you are better then me, bc I would complain. I wouldn't go somewhere that made me unable to breath. MIL is horrible about smoking in the house. UGH its horrid. She got this air purifier thing so it has been better but lately she quit using it. Saturday i walked in after going for a run, i turned around and walked right back out. I literally could not breath when I walked in the house. Saturday was cool and crisp and i had literally just finished running 3 miles. i didn' tfeel bad at all, i dont care what they thought.
gr. i just dont like my mil i think.
Happy Belated Birthday Jena!! I'm sorry DH's family is so rude as to not even acknowledge your B-day. Hopefully you and he at least did something fun.
On a side note.. I think we created a pretty good confessions posts for not starting until late Thursday afternoon:)
I agree, rather aggressive is a good way to put it.
Also - I see you have another 5K coming up soon, per your siggy. GL!!
