Confessions?
I just needed to get it off my chest.......ok.....here it goes.....I still haven't taken down my Christmas tree! UH.....I know....but it's so pretty.... and it makes me feel better when I get home from work and plug in my tree...lights up the whole room....I like it.....
Re: Confessions?
Dont wry my DH wants to keep up our trees ALL year long! We took them down tho a couple days ago.
I confess that I almost screamed my head off when I took a girl to the clinic today who had just been found to have LIVE lice in her hair. What does she do when I say bye? Turns around and gives me a HUGE hug. AH!! Just ran home and took a shower, blow dried and straightened my hair hoping that it will help!
My Blog!
Oh, our tree is still up. And further more I just found a present I forgot to give my mom!! We are taking it down tomorrow even though I almost don't even want to. I just love it so much. I love just walking in a turning the tree on and nothing else.
I also confess our apartment needs a major purge. We have way to much stuff just shoved into corners and boxes. It makes me insane, but as I am tidying today I am serious overcome with a feeling of "when we move we are screwed." So much stuff....

Oh I confess my tree is still up too. NO worries! Hubby and I have been too busy with work and my Uncle's passing (he was finally called home yesterday morning) to take it apart and de-decorate. Alas, this weekend is the deadline we set for ourselves. Christmas is over.
I confess that I'm dreading seeing some of my relatives at the visitation for my Uncle next week because they drive me insane. With emotions already running high, I just need to remember to keep my mouth shut and I'll stay out of trouble.
And I confess that I'm having serious cravings for curry! Hubby doesn't care for it but I'm making it anyways and he's gonna have to like it. I made him his favorite dish the other night when he begged even though I had planned something else so today is all about me.
Witty- so sorry about your uncle.
I confess that I am so mentally ready for a new job I don't even have yet. It will be mine...but we have to make it look "official" so I'm stuck sitting here, waiting for the job posting...urgh, I'm pretty much mentally checked out of my current position and the new one is in the library...something I actually want to do with the rest of my life. I almost can't take the waiting anymore! I've been waiting for the budgets to get passed and the position to be created for 2 months...it is so close, yet still so far.
Sorry...that was more of a vent than a rant

Sometimes I wish I had given my parents more helll growing up, then maybe they wouldn't pressure me so much. I'm tired of my mom telling everyone how "well" I'm doing, when I'm not doing well (as far as school is concerned).
I also confess that I brought a salad to work, but then I found pizza in our fridge leftover from our meeting yesterday, so I ate that instead.
I confess that the plan was to take the tree down tomorrow but I really don't want to.
I confess that moving at the end of the month is very intimidating for some reason. I'm glad we are because it's a wise move financiall and we can save $ for a downpayment much easier, but I'd honestly rather stay put.
MY BLOG!
I confess that last year we left our tree up until MARCH...at some point DH had started calling it a lamp..LOL..
I didn't want to do that again so I took it down last week.
I confess that I have yet to start eating healthy and we have already ate out Sunday, Wednesday and Thursday...::sigh::
However I was sick so who wants to cook? Chinese and pizza is way easier!
I confess that I am struggling to focus on work when all I can think about is moving to San Francisco (which we plan to do in June)! It also doesn't help that it's been frigid and windy in NYC. HATE THIS WEATHER! I am however, very sad at the thought of moving so far away from my twin sister. I've been pushing it aside for now.
I also confess that while I am excited to start TTC in a couple of weeks, I am troubled by the thought of giving up wine for a while. How will I cope with anything?
witty- so sorry to hear about your uncle.
I confess that 1 of our 2 trees is still up. We took the first one down last night. And I have absolutely no excuse for having all the xmas decorations still up since I'm currently unemployed.
I confess that it really annoys me when moms have a pic of their baby/kid as their profile pic on FB. I don't want to see your baby's fat cheeks, I want to see your face so when you request me I know who the hell you are. Maybe it annoys me because it furthers my fear of losing my identity when I have kids.
Also I confess that I've spent WAY too much time on the internet lately. Not really doing anything productive, just wasting my life.
I confess that I really wanted the Wii Active for Christmas and although I got it I have yet to use it (and really feel like I won't want to use it any time soon).
I also confess that I'm trying to figure out how to convince DH that we need to move. This should be relatively easy as he's unemployed right now.
My final confession: I want to take next week off so I can sit on the couch and alternate between reading, napping with DH and our dog, and watching House Hunters. If only.
I confess I made Curry (caved and did Thai rather than Indian) and he gave it a 9 out of 10. I'm going to broaden his horizons yet!
And thanks everyone for your condolences. As expected as my Uncle's passing was, it still makes my heart hurt. Trying to remember happier times when he was healthy and at ease makes it easier I think.
Aww witty so sorry for your loss...I completely understand your heart hurting. I lost my favorite aunt 2 years ago and it still hurts every so often.
My confessions are this...I've tried so hard this week to stick to my resolutions and so far been fairly successfull except 2 nights of eating out. Though I've stuck to my trying to be a better wifey resolution I fight the urge every night to just sit and watch TV and play online. Tonight I gave in and haven't moved since DH left for work. I hear the dishes calling my name in the kitchen.
The bright side...tomorrow is Saturday, a new day and I can have a fresh start.
I confess that I had been doing great on my workout goals and went a full 2 weeks without missing but then skipped yesterday's workout and instead of making it up today I didn't. I also confess that I probably won't workout tomorrow either meaning I will be right back where I started soreness wise when I get back to it. However the combination of cramps and a sinus infection are just too powerful for me to get motivated.
I also confess that after DH kept me up until 2am with his tossing and turning and then woke me up at 5am when he got up for work, my day just went downhill from there. So by the time he called right as I was trying to break into my house with a credit card after being locked out (with a car full of groceries) I may have let him have it and I confess I still (after several apologies) feel really bad about taking out my horrible day on him.
I also confess that after the day I have had today, all I want to do is sleep tomorrow.
Well technically, in the christian religion, the Christmas season isn't over until the bapstism of Christ, later this month. So you're good...really.
I confess...I started to make brownies tonight, and then decided to just eat the batter. Now I'm pretty sure there isn't enough left to make a full batch, so I'm just going to put it in the fridge and eat off it the next few days. That's terrible! Can you tell my new year resolution was NOT to loose weight. Haha!
