Friday Confessions
I confess that i wore black pants and an orange shirt today and I feel like an add for halloween. yuck.
I confess that my nose is so stuffy/runny because i'm not allowed to take any allergy medicine for a week before my allergy testing so it doesnt skew the results, and i keep sniffing so much im afraid its going to gross out my coworkers. But i cant be blowing my nose every 2 minutes! i have work to do!
I confess that aside from scary weird things, the only normal thing i dream about are work tasks...ugh.
I confess that i have not dusted my house in like a MONTH

Re: Friday Confessions
I confess I haven't been able to stop eating. All I want to do is eat. So now I feel like a huge blob. I feel like i have this huge tire around my waist. I need to go to the gym stat.
I confess I had a dream about work last night.
Add: I confess I told DH I don't want to move back to the same area we grew up in. I begged him to try to get a job where you still have to travel a couple hours but be closer to home.
I confess to gaining two pounds since yesterday. We went to a Brazilian steakhouse for FIL and BIL's birthdays and I still feel miserable right now. I feel fat and my stomach hurts and I don't want to go to work.
I'm also jealous because B took the day off today. I would, but I'm subbing for someone who requested me. The only good thing is I'll be working in the library by myself (they don't have the kids coming to the library this year any more) so I won't have to deal with 30 kindergarteners like I originally was scheduled for.
I confess that even though I know it's best for my family in the long run, I really wish I would have taken the summer off. This 4 week course is a PITA and while I am sure I'll enjoy my practicum (internship) I'm not liking that I have work every day when it's a long commute like that and that I'll only get 2 days off (Memorial Day & July 4th).
I confess that I don't want to go to my IL's this weekend. I feel like J and I haven't had any decent time together, aside from our weekend in Williamsburg (mostly b/c my school obligations) and I just want to spend time doing nothing with him. My MIL is also causing me to stress out about baby stuff and I just don't want to endure any of her side comments this weekend.
I confess that I am "working" from home today and have yet to actually do anything work related. I just didn't want to sit in the office all day.
I confess that I feel so guilty that I haven't cleaned an inch of our house in weeks and dishes are piling up in the sink. I even found one with mold on it yesterday.
I confess that I spent the last 2 years trying to get the job I have now and I don't like it at all. I want to do something that take a little creative energy just not answering emails for stupid questions from stupid people.
Side note - "wickeesgirl117" I didn't realize we are pregnancy twins
I am also 20weeks and 1 day today
I confess
I confess that even though you're not really supposed to eat lunchmeat while prego, unless it's heated, I devoured a cold ham and cheese sandwhich yesterday. I couldn't help myself!
I confess that my awkward neighbor who comes over unannounced and plops on my couch for an hour or more just to "chat" knocked on my door yesterday. And I didn't answer. I felt like a horrible person, but I was grumpy and trying to nap and just not in the mood to entertain her awkwardness....plus, I'm hoping at some point she'll figure to call or text first instead of barging in before I have to say something to her (which I hate having to do...I always feel bad)
I've heard varying opinions on this. My sisters Dr said that it was safe to eat so long as it had not gotten to the slimy point. And her pregnancy went fine.

I confess that my hubby took me on a 10:00 ice cream run last night. For a peanut butter and brownie shake. That's sooo bad for you.
I confess that I ignored a call from a good friend last night because she can talk and talk and talk without stopping. I just can't take it sometimes. I feel really bad about it though because she is such a sweetheart. I'm so mean.
Ive eaten lunchmeat...I think as long as you know the place you get it from and it's not old you should be fine....Ive also eaten hotdogs and feta cheese
Additionally, I confess that i get REALLY mad (inside) when people my age (or a few years plus or minus) have no respect for their parents and treat them like crapola. Or when they constantly complain about how annoying or how mean their parents are.
What i would give to take back a few *** teenager fights w/ my dad and replace them w/ happy things (though we had a great relationship , just normal teenager stupidity). I can't imagine how much more difficult it would be for me to deal w/ not having him around if i had been an *** to him.
I also confess that I am getting drained out like crazy right now w/ family/home/work/etc and I'll be so happy when my sister comes back so I don't have to be worrying about my mom being alone at home ALL THE TIME when i cant go visit with her.

I confess that I am completely addicted to Hershey's cookies'n'creme drops. I've eaten soooo many it's disgusting.
I confess that I have not done as much studying as I should for this next test. I'm going to kick myself in the butt today and get to studying.
I confess that I am so envious of anyone our age who is buying/has bought a house recently. I hate living in an apartment and want my own space to paint and fix and decorate.
my read shelf:
I confess to this too. Well not last night, but I have done it more than once in the past, with more than one friend. In all honesty, I really don't think it's a bad thing. If you can't give someone your full attention, it's really doing them a favor by not answering (at least that is what I feel/tell myself).
I confess I am being worthless today when I should be cleaning, throwing crap out and packing for the big move. I am watching all the Pirates movies online because DH got groupon tix for us to see the new one tonight... and I have never seen any of them until now (not because I didn't want to, I just had never seen them). In my defense, DH told me to watched them and helped me set up the site. I just finished Dead Man's Chest, and thankfully all I have left now is At World's End. Then hopefully I can get some stuff done.
Chrissy - wrote you a PM about this a while back. Apparently in my pregnancy brain I forgot to let you know I sent you a PM. oops. Yeah it seems we're both due the 14th
Val - lunch meat is not a big deal. My OB's basically have an "anything in moderation" rule, with the exception of meds (obviously), alcohol and cheeses that you don't know what's in them (i.e. make sure they are made with pasteurized milk). I personally don't like lunch meat so I never really paid attention to that part, haha.
I confess: Having strep throat stinks!! but since I have had no appetite all week.. I have lost 3 lbs.. Is it bad that I am a little excited about the weight loss!
Confess: My best friends wedding is Sunday and with being sick still I have no energy
