confession session & good thoughts tuesday
Re: confession session & good thoughts tuesday
good thoughts to everyone in japan after all the horrors of the earthquake/tsunami last week. so awful
confession: my friend at k-town forwarded me an e-mail from twatface and i may paste it here just to make you girls laugh. it is so condescending. same old tf. makes me so f*cking glad i don't work there anymore.
Ditto Joanna's good thoughts to those affected by the tsunami. The most recent reports of the death toll, wow, it just shocked me. So sad!
Confession: Joanna better post that email because I am dying to read it!
Confession: I need another coffee.
Good thoughts: To Lindsay at her 3 hour glucose test today. To Kris&Jay and her exciting new journey!! To Heather (fenway), that she's finding peace after losing her Dad. To everyone else who needs them right now.
Confession: I mailed out a $75 order today and I'm giddy with excitement. My business is booming and I LOVE IT!
Confession: Dan and I are going away this weekend...just the two of us...no kids...and I CANNOT WAIT! We need some "couple time".
Confession: I actually don't want to cheat on my diet. I think I finally got to the point with my weight that I was just done with it all. PHEW! 40 lbs. by 40 here I come!
Thanks so much Pam...Jay and I are still in shock.
Confession: I am supposed to be going to West Palm beach in May with my best friend. I don't want to tell her I am pregnant until we book because I feel like she will bail on the trip because I won't be able to drink.
Confession: I can't think of any unique ways to tell my parents. I thought of a way for my in-laws but not my parents. Help!!
Good Thoughts: To everyone that needs them
good thoughts: to everyone that needs them!
confession: last night, I was clipping Benjamin's nails and I cut him.
I didn't even realize I was pinching his skin until he started to cry.When I realized it I let go of the clippers and started bawling. He was looking at me with big fat tears in his eyes and his pouty frown, holding his hand out like "why are you hurting me mommy??" I kept saying I was sorry over and over. He was over it after about 2 minutes and I cried for at least 30. 
What's your business? Yeah, I'm totally nosey.
Never done one of these, but I'll try.
Good thoughts: To everyone who is hurting.
Confession: I lost about 80 lbs last year and have been doing really good at not eating processed foods or fast foods. However, last night I had to go to CVS late and picked up a bag of Double Stuff Oreos. I ate about 15. I had to throw them in the garbage this morning
Oh, and I have Oreo crumbs all over my sheets now.
IHO of jen's first confession, i'll share another:
confession: more and more, i stay away from a lot of processed foods but there is no substitute for oreos or cheez-its. every once in awhile, i just need them and not the healthier, whole foods subs. i really think oreos are laced with crack.
good thoughts: to all the families in japan who are faced with loss and tragedy, to all my nesties, to my grandparent and their health.
confession: i cannot stop eating. i don't know why, but it needs to stop so i can look decent this summer playing with liza in the baby pool!!!
confession: i have spring fever!
Good thoughts: to all the families affected by the tsunami in Japan. The news just seems to be getting worse & worse.
Good thoughts: to my mom. She's having some surgery done "down there", and she's really embarrassed about it. I'm driving up next week to stay with her & chauffeur her around while she recuperates, and to be honest I'm a little nervous myself. It's silly, but b/c of some underlying medical issues she has, the surgery & recovery might be a little more complicated - and I'm not ready to lose another parent. I'm SURE I'm jumping the gun, but my mind always races to the worst case scenario. Blah.
Confession: I was running so damn late today (thank you DST), that I realized once I got to work that I (potentially TMI) forgot to change my underwear from last night. Heaven help me if I ever have kids, I'll be sending them to school unshowered & grody. Please don't judge me.
