FFFC
Flame Free... so let's see what you've got!
Love 9.3.03
Marriage 12.1.07
Baby Carriage 8.3.11
Re: FFFC
I've complained about this before, but I'm really sorry my cat is under the impression that I love typing or sleeping around his huge furry body when I'm not occupied by the baby. I cannot stand being touched 24 hours a day. I feel bad for the loss of attention he's experiencing, and he certainly isn't getting the love from DH, but IT IS DRIVING ME INSANE (as I type with his head firmly glued to my left hand). MOMMA NEEDS A TOUCH BREAK.
*draws invisible space barrier around self*
I don't want to go back to work. I know I have to and I will enjoy feeling productive again... but being unemployed has been so.much.fun.
If you'll excuse me, I'm off to the pool for a date with another UE friend and a rum and diet to enjoy my last weekday of freedom.
I really want to blow off work this afternoon, but I can't since both my bosses are out.
I have no plans of being productive today.
haha @ LB. so it only took a week for you to go from bored-crazy to loving SAHW life??
I'm hosting a foodbuzz dinner tomorrow, but DH has to work all night and can't be there so I didn't bother inviting anyone. Instead I'll cook and photograph everything and pretend we had a dinner party and bourbon tasting flight.
I'll come over
I struggle with this now and again. Moreso before James though. Feel free to pm me if you want.
It's really tough for us because he is just now recovering from some depression issues and his self-esteem is horrible right now. I want to be supportive and I think I do a good job but it's really hard to have all the pressure on your shoulders for such an extended period of time. I'm ready to move on to the next step of our loves already!
No, he's not SAH, but we've always had a very high income disparity between us and I feel the responsibility of that.
I went through that when DH was in graduate school. He was around his classmates/friends all day then at practice with the teams he loved, he travelled on the weekends with them while I was stuck working 40+ hr. weeks at an accounting firm, which I hated, with no friends in a town we went to just for him.
It was a really, really hard first year for us, by the second his classmates began texting and calling me when they were doing things so I got out more, plus I found a new job that I liked more, but still, the weight of making all of the $$ was difficult, and when DH complained about schoolwork I went ballistic on him because it was his choice to go to grad school, and it put us both in a hard position.
If you need to vent, vent away because I can totally sympathize.
My MIL has been driving me crazy since she found out I was pregnant. She has to know everthing that happens ASAP. DH and I have been together for 9 years and she has come visit us a total of 2 maybe 3 times and has never tried to have a relationship with me. Now she wants me to share every detail with her (including how much weight I have gained). It is to late for us to be BFF.
I sent out a recorded phone call last night for business, and somehow it went to FIL's cell by accident. No biggie, but then he and MIL freaked because it confused them and they instantly thought something was wrong. They called my cell twice (it was plugged in, so I wouldn't have heard it anyway), and DH's once. We didn't hear them because we were putting the boys to bed. I happened to check my phone and MIL called again while I was checking voicemail.
She was hysterically upset that we hadn't answered the first three calls within 3 minutes! I told her we were putting the boys to bed, and she told me we should've had them with us! Then FIL says he can finally sit down to dinner since he's not worried any more.
I wanted so badly to say, "crawl back out of my a$$, will you?" They do this crap all.the.time. And it kills me because had they listened to the recording, they would've known what was going on. Then DH gets all worried about his dad's blood pressure, and I have to calm him down.
"My 101 List - Updating asap, I swear!
Ok here's a really embarrassing confession. As I lost weight, my chest went from a full D to a regular C. Now that I'm pregnant, they're busting out of my D bras, easily a DD. But that's not the worst part... I never used to get THO before, but now, I have it all.the.time. and it makes me so self conscious. And it hurts!
I want my THO-less, C boobies back
I'm at this point right now. I wish DH would get a better job.
Confession: either I'm just having a moment, or I have no clue what THO means.

Titty Hard On
If you're planning on bf'ing, get used to THO.
Lovely. Well, it seems to catch DH's attention.
Holy hell, you must be all boobs!
Agreed! Not BFing yet but ever since I got PG my nipples have constantly been hard
Nestie moms...correct me if I'm wrong, but won't this likely change after LO is here and her milk officially "comes in?" (Whatever the hell that means.) lol I'm so happy for all of you, but dear god this thread was good birth control.
