Re: Confession time....
LMAO. You know the best thing about flowers? They can cover up anything you are embarrassed of.
I confess that today while starting to read a book, it said god 10 times within the first 3 pages, so I threw it in the trash can. (No offense to anyone)
It was an old torn up book called "The Art of Loving" that I got for $0.25 at GoodWill, I figured it'd be a cute self-help type book, but it was all about loving god before loving yourself, so I had to give it the proper burial.
I love flowers, if I could carry them with me everywhere I would.
AND..I got a big one... I have postpartum depression and have gotten the number of a shrink but I am kinda scared to call. I mean I know I need to but I kinda feel like its admitting I have failed a little bit.
I can't seem to fix that...
And Montana...it will be ok...make the call...one step at a time :-( We are here for you if you ever need to talk
In all seriousness, I'm sorry you're going through this. You have NOT failed at anything, and I hope when you go he/she will make you see that
Montana, I don't know what to say that won't seem trite. But I've dealt with depression on several occasions and I am severely afraid that I will have post-partum. So I will just say that so many people go through that and it doesn't make you crazy/weird/bad. Do get the help that you need though, because fighting it on your own is impossible and you'll feel so much better after you do.
This. and you have to know you didn't fail in any way, shape, or form. It's a brain chemistry thing, not anything you did (or didn't) do. Make the call, you'll feel better once that's done. We love you, and just tell us what we can do to support you.
OMG that book sucked (no offense to those who like that genre). I wish I'd watched the movie instead of reading it for 10th grade honors English. I disliked it pretty much to the last page.
And I confess that I have avoided getting sick while everyone around me has, and now I feel like I am getting sick. Right before I have to work an almost 30 hour weekend. Stupid Oscars...
Bananas always make me think of the chiquita banana song
Indeed it does, Michelle. Indeed it does.....
LOL!!!! Yeeeeees!!! I laughed entirely too hard at this!
All of this 100%. You are in no way letting Logan down. It must be so scary and difficult, but you can do this and will be happier for it. Lots of love and good vibes.
Getting fit for IVF!
Thanks ladies! I know I just need to do it, and I have many excuses (sickness, weather, holidays) but I think its just time. Its a weird experience because I have never dealt with anxiety or depression so I feel a little on the nutso side some times. I mean we all have a little crazy but my anxiety makes my even more so.
Thanks again for the support!
I confess that I too have flowers on the brain. It's like if I could just get one of those flowery looking shower caps that synchronized swimmers wear, I'd be totally happy. Yup. True story.
I confess that I don't mind cooking, cleaning, doing laundry, and all that other 1950s housewife stuff. I actually kind of like it. I hate it when our apartment is messy, and I hate it when we're both too busy & end up eating something frozen & unhealthy. I think it's probably because I grew up with a stay-at-home mom, and she was always around.
And finally, I confess that I love eating while watching "I Used to be Fat" on MTV. Or "Biggest Loser." Or "America's Next Top Model." DH hates it. He can't eat while he's watching people try to lose weight. I'm just a creep.
ten-tenners' may siggy: me & mama on my wedding day
What's LittleMissNewlywed Cooking?
Don't worry Sara, I'm the same way.
MY confession, I feel kind of guilty that I am so productive when Nick is out of town.
Us too. DH and I have spent more than one Biggest Loser episode eating ice cream.
Kenna your Siggy makes me smile.
I confess that I am a horrible housekeeper. I have been trying so hard to keep up the house and I just can't seem to get the motivation to keep it. I blame it on the DH saying he is lazy and messy- but I'm just as bad if not worse than him. I also try to blame it on my mother and her hoarding tendencies- but it is my fault again that I have so much stuff that I'm attached too. One day soon I hope to have this mess under control and life to be less stressful because of it. I have been slowly making progress in the past month- I just hope it doesn't take me a whole year like it feel like with this pace.
