Re: Confession Session and Good thought thursday
I confess that I have really been neglecting my husband's needs lately. We are not very intimate and I don't know what my problem is but my sex drive just isn't there. I wonder if it is a sympton of my thyroid disease. Anyway, he has been so patient but I am really starting to feel bad. Now I am broken and I can't make it up to him. Hopefully, I figure out what my problem is soon
I confess that I am really sad about my uncle that just passed away yesterday. I haven't seen him in about 15 years (he lived in Texas). But we shared a birthday and for the first 21 years of my life he sent me roses on my birthday (1 rose when I was 1, 2 roses when I was 2, etc). He sent me cards for every holiday and birthday and always made me feel special. I started a photobook for him from the wedding since he was too sick to come, but never got to send it because I still haven't gotten my pro pics. Even though I rarely got to see him, I always knew I was his special niece. I confess too that I've only cried about this alone so far because since I found out yesterday DH and I haven't had a minute alone and he is gone for the night now....
Good thoughts to Chelley & Christie! Christie, I'm so sorry to hear about your uncle.
Good thoughts also to my DH. He's been sleeping TERRIBLY lately & I feel bad for him. Even when he's sleeping, he's not getting decent rest b/c he's been sleepwalking again & we don't know what's triggered it. Last night he got up, walked out to the living room, turned on the TV, and then came back to bed. I woke up a little later & heard it & was so freaked out. Anyway, he's really getting run down & I feel bad b/c there's not much I can do for him.
Confession: I'm very frustrated with our sex life so far in 2011. The first week of January, I had the flu. Then towards the end of that, DH got an ear infection & sinus infection that lasted like a week. Then with classes & work & neither of us getting any sleep because of the nocturnal lumberjack girl (I'm just assuming. No one else could make that much noise.) moving into the apartment above us, things aren't steadily improving. Ugh, I'm hoping for a solid weekend. :-/
Confession: I'm pumped for "Jersey Shore" tonight. No judgey!
ten-tenners' may siggy: me & mama on my wedding day
What's LittleMissNewlywed Cooking?
Confession: I am ready for another baby. Mentally but not physically and I dont know when I will be physically and that frustrates me to no end.
Confession: I have been crazy jealous that L calls dada for Mike but not mama for me. Well not so jealous anymore. She is sick again this week and all she does is whine for ma-ma. Cute, ya not so much. I cant even go pee in peace.
Confession: Mike's 91 yr old grandma is a pain in the ass. I am fairly certain she is the most manipulative person in the whole world. and Mike bows down to everything she says. The latest..She told us that when we came out in March for Mikes nephews bar mitzvah that we should only stay for 3 days AND that we couldnt stay at the house because it was too much for her if we did. BUT Mikes brother and sil and their 2 crazy wild boys get to stay at the house and they will be there for 5 days. WTF? How about telling them to get out?
Confession: I am a hypocrite. I complain when people dont call me back and then I see them on FB and lately thats been me.
Good thoughts to those that need them. Sending many thoughts and vibes to all my nesties who are struggling.
Confession: I screen calls and refuse to answer when I see MIL's number..... even when she calls multiple times in 5 minutes
Confession: I am terrified of having children. DH would make a great father but I always feel so awkward around babies and children. I'm almost positive that I'm meant to be a mother to children with fur.
Confession: As much as I love my husband, I hate hate hate being back on first shift. It is nice to be home at night, I was missing my TV shows, but I really want to go back to seconds. Lance keeps telling me to go back if I want to, but I know he doesn't want me to.
Confession: Lately I have been in such a strange, mean, yucky funk. I don't want anything to do with Lance, I just feel so crabby and bitchy. I am hoping that our vacation is going to help spice things up between us, because something has to happen. I am feeling like I made a bad decision getting married, even though I know that is definitely not the case.
Good thoughts to all of my fellow nesties that are going thru rough times. Love you ladies, keep your heads up!
Confession: I'm scared out of my mind that tomorrow/monday might be dh's last day of work.....but happy that he's looking and trying to stay positive and we'll get through this....we've gotten through enough already just tired of struggling
Confession:scared about my father's knee surgery tomorrow.....he's been through alot and its SO routine compared to the cancer that he's beaten....
Good thoughts....Just finished the requested supplemental documents that were requested following my application for a local guidance counselor job....*crosses fingers*
Good thoughts to you all
Getting fit for IVF!
Confession: Ross was fired Saturday, and I REALLY want to quit. I'm jealous that he's been jacking off all week, and I've had to deal with the fall-out and all the questions from our coworkers.
Confession: I might hold off on filing our taxes for a little bit. I'm waiting for one more w2 (Ross worked two jobs for a couple months in 2010), but everything else is done. H&RBlock says we're supposed to get a really big return, and I really want to buy a house. Nothing fancy, I know anything in our price range is going to need work, but I like that kind of stuff. Ross is a little iffy, and I confess that I think as soon as he gets a job I'm going to start leaning on him about it. I don't want to get our tax return, because I know it will get eaten up by bills, until we're ready to plunk it down as a down payment.
Good thoughts: Continued T&P to our Nesties with recent losses.

Confession: I'm a day late responding to this because I just slept for 12 hours straight. Seriously, I have never been so tired in my life.
Good thought: I'm sending out many friday T&P to everyone since it seems to be such a bad week here.
a day late, but none the less:
Confession: DH and I are also haven't had the best sexlife recently. The last few months of wedding planning weren't great, then right after the wedding and especially on the HM we both were all about it. Since those events, it's really dwindling. I too, Chelley, think my BC has played into my lack of interest. But I feel bad for DH. The other day he downloaded a karma sutra app and I honestly just had no interest. Poor guy.
Confession: 2 of my friends are getting married this year, and while our wedding was perfect for us, when I hear about theirs and theirs plans, I'm getting a tinge of jealously. A lot of it isn't practical, like one is having a trolley. Our ceremony and reception were at the same venue, so that would have been plain stupid. I think I just miss planning
Confession: My parents and sister are going to Europe in spring and I wasn't invited (not that I would be able to go moneywise/workwise), but my sister told me earlier this week that my dad debating inviting my bro and SIL and even paying for their flights (my sis is paying for her own). When my sis said that I would be angry, my dad's response was "I paid enough for her fvcking wedding"...well Dad, I didn't ask for a specific amount of money and you offered what I thought you were comfortable with spending. Thanks for acting like it wasn't worth every penny...my dad doesn't know that I know he said this, and honestly I find it really offensive that my dad would even say anything like that, especially behind my back.
Good thoughts: To all of those who's loved ones are struggling with health or financial issues. We love you and are here for you to talk to!
ETA: (Wow I'm a bad wife): good thoughts for DH. He's supposed to get a company review on his performance every 6 mo and has not had one in over 1.5yrs. He has it today and I'm praying that things go well and DH will get a raise that will make him happy enough to stay (he loves loves loves his job, but is paid $hit and has been deeply considering looking for other another company to do the some kind of job but get paid a deserving salary)
