Can we vent?
I just need to complain for a minute. The co-worker that sits next to my cube is so freaking loud! I've listened to her talk on the phone about personal issues for the past 2 hours. 2 hours!! Leave your personal issues at home!
Anyone else??

I can't stand my in-laws. IMO, you don't get to watch your kids get abused by another man and sit by and do nothing, then do nothing to help guide them throughout their childhood and adolescence, depend on others to take care of them and make them get a job at 14 to buy their own food, not get to know them at all, and then when they get married and have children you want a voice, say, opinion, and the right to get excited. I know it's ridiculous, but I don't even think they have a right to be excited about this baby. And if you refer to my future CHILD (aka, we don't know if it's a boy or a girl) as Ian, Jr. ONE.MORE.TIME. I swear to Lucifer I will fly across the country to ring your neck personally. It could be a girl. It could be an Erynne, Jr. We aren't going to name them a junior at all! And stop making fun of me for my nickname choices. And stop being excited. I know it's ridiculous, I should be happy someone is excited I am having a child, but you don't get to tease me or be excited for me, not when you treated me like *** the whole time I was dating your son and getting married. I had to listen to how I wasn't good enough b/c I was fat and not Mormon and going to college instead of doing nothing w/ my life, so you sure as hell don't get a say in anything baby related. This baby is not just from YOUR side of the family, and the only person I consider family on your side is my husband. And he recognizes my family as his own, because you know what? They were there for him. My dad has been the person he goes to for advice. For friendship. For guidance. That's what fathers are supposed to be, and you are the farthest thing from it.
A confession to go along with it...this is all stemming from the fact that my SIL is coming in August to visit the baby after we asked her to wait a few weeks/months and my FIL keeps referring to the baby as Ian, Jr. and making fun of me for putting up a picture of a pee stick that read "pregnant." I know I'm overreacting and irrational. But I don't care. And I wrote a rude reply on facebook for all to see to go along with it b/c I don't want him to even write on my facebook. I'm rude.
Ouch!
Holy crap C! Esp since you didn't loose any teeth like that other person. WOW.
I hope everyone has a better day!
Ugh I would be upset too! You're SIL should really wait on that visit if you told her so! I don't think we are facebook friends...hmm

Sorry.. that sounds very painful! Hope you feel better.
H said no
He really did think about it and kept going back and forth so I appreciate that.
Before we had that big discussion he told Ava "I think we're going to try for another you in about a year".....crickets.....really we are? haha
I'm still going forward with my plan of taking my whole check to pay that loan off just so it's paid off in case something does happen with my job (you never know) and then will take it all from now until baby number 2 arrives because by then we'll need a new vehicle and we can pay cash and there will be some left over so that I could stay home at least for the first year
Plus we can also do some home improvements here and there.
I told H ok if you plant baby #2 in my head you better get serious mister haha
I've been sick for 2 weeks. I'm exhausted because I'm only sleeping 2 hours at a time. I got attacked by 3 people today at work. I lost my voice. I'm falling apart and my body can't handle my job anymore...want me to keep going?
I'm pretty sure I failed my test Monday. I don't really remember, I was too tired to care.
Oh and FI and I got in a huge fight over the weekend and he told me he wanted the ring back. He apologized and said he didn't mean it but I'm still pretty upset about it.
But on the plus side, my evil neighbor child moved and the cattens (cat + kitten) and I have been harrasssment free for 4 days.
K....
Can you change job locations? And, sorry to hear about your fight with FI. That sounds extreme.
I'm ok with my job when I'm healthy. Just was a rough day for everyone, none of our kids had good days. Thankfully I didn't get too hurt, just a bit banged up.
I told FI that I don't tolerate stuff like that, and it really is over if he says it again. I made it pretty clear I wasn't joking.
::hugs:: to all. I hope you guys are able to enjoy a nice big glass of something this evening.
As for me, I am just tired of not knowing where we will be in 2+ years. DH and I just want to be settled down but we know we need to discuss our 5 year plan before we can pick a life and move forward with it. We even found a house and neighborhood that we love here in Tampa, which is probably what is prompting our whole "what should we do, move back home or stay" mentality. I want a career but I need to pick a new one if we stay here. If we move back, my career will never let me spend time with our baby boy, so that's also out the window. Anyone wanna tell me what I should be when I grow up? Ugh, I am always feeling lost.
Oh man, tell me about cschissell! Or, the jobs I know are in demand and can be found anywhere are in fields I suck in (i.e. accounting or nursing).
How are feeling? Hope your welts have subsided a bit from this morning.
Holly Crap!! Glad you didnt knock your teeth out like the other poster mentioned.
That is totally something I would do though!
I had an amazingly good day today. My vent is from yesterday. It was my first day back to work in 33 day. Where does my manager put me? In Adult ICU. I haven't had adult ICU in at least a month before I went out. It was off the charts psycho crazy with critically ill patients. I go up to the unit only to find out that all of my pc passwords expired while I was gone, rendering me useless. I couldn't get meds, couldnt give meds, coudn't check ventilators. I was working with the Dr. I hate and things were starting off super bad. I dont think it was even 8 am and I was in tears. I've never worked so hard in my life. My legs were practically on fire by the end of the day.
Today I was supposed to be trained on this new protocol that they implemented while I was gone. I call the educator at 4pm to ask when she was going to get to me and she said she couldnt b/c my manager asked her to help the ICU therapist do breathing treatments today b/c she was so busy. WTF?! I had to do it all by myself yesterday.
Im sorry.....hospitals are a sscary place to work at...for me anyway. I REFUSE to work at a hospital! Hope you get all those passwords updated and that training done asap!
