Re: confession session & good thoughts tuesday
Confession: I am completely inspired by Jana and Lesa - their success is absolutely amazing. It also shows me that I'm a wuss, and need to step it up more. I am doing better by going to the gym at least twice a week, but I need to find a third day. I need to show my kids a healthier lifestyle. And I need to get DH involved because he ain't no spring chicken either.
Good thoughts to one of my BF's, who will be beginning the chemo-side of her battle with breast cancer. Hopefully she can see an RE quickly who can extract some eggs, so that she'll have some options once she beats this horrible disease. Cancer sucks.
Confession - I have baby fever and have been off "the pill" since September. Ahhhhh!! But am sick of people asking me when we will have kids or if we are trying....Umm, pretty sure its my vajayjay and none of your damn business. So I act like I don't even want kids to some people, when inside I am dying... But I am still not 100% I should be resposible for someone else's life. Yikes!!
Good Thoughts - To my friend Essie who is still recovering from open heart surgery and in an extreme amount of pain, but is doing incredible recovery wise.
Confession: I have a BJ's size bag of M&Ms open, and all I want to do is sit down and stuff my face with them. But I'm being good... for now!
Good Thoughts for all who need them.
good thoughts to everyone, especially becky's friend and kris's friend
confession: DC-area people wig about the tiniest bit of snow and it is comical but at the same time i'm scared of their lack of skills when driving in inclement weather. going slower and just being extra cautious/aware should not be a foreign concept to any driver.
Based on Alicia's confession, I now confess that I am tempted to go to BJ's and get a bag of M&M's.
confession: in the last 3 weeks, I have cried all but maybe 4 days. i don't know if there is anything in life that makes you question yourself and your abilities more than being a new parent. or anything that has made me feel like more of a failure at times. i basically have no idea what i'm doing when it comes to this little guy and am so confused as to what is "right" and "wrong." he's healthy, seems happy and is thriving...I think...I just constantly question myself. is this normal? ugh.
confession: I suck at the "sleep when the baby sleeps" thing. When he naps, I do things around the house, come online for SOME sort of adult interaction, pump, etc. Then when I finally decide to lay down, he wakes up, and I cry because I'm exhausted. I need to get better at napping right when he goes down.
confession: I am so excited about this storm we are getting, because it means DH will work from home tomorrow and I'm really looking forward to having him around rather than being by myself.
good thoughts: to everyone that needs them.
confessions: i still nap (almost always) when liza naps. the dishes/laundry can go screw.
confession: i'm having a hard time remembering everyone's irl name and i think we need to start a poll/thingy.
confessions: my stomach drops every time the phone rings because i know that one of these days it will be bad news about my grandfather.
good thoughts: to all my nesties & their friends and lots of them to my grandfather.
Oh my good thoughts are going out to all my nesties and their friends today! And Melissa, I am telling you that having a baby in the winter is so much harder. Being stuck inside b/c it's freaking freezing outside and really being by yourself with the baby in the winter is so much harder. I felt the same way as you are feeling now when I had Christian in December '06. Now fast forward to Gianna as a May baby and having the summer off.....you just can't compare the 2!
I got nothing to confess....I am pretty boring right now. But I will say that my neighbor Alicia better throw out that freaking BJ's size bag of M&M's or when I stop by to drop off clothes I will be forced to throw them away myself! What are you thinking????Back away from the M&M's!
