Friday confessions
I confess that I am going to fall asleep in front of my computer today...for sure. I worked yesterday from 6:30 am to 5pm, from 6pm-7pm, then from 10pm-11:30pm. Then i felt bad going upstairs and waking Ziggy up coming to bed, so I just slept on the couch. I'm EXHAUSTED. I had to work this morning again at 6, so i just decided to work from home.
I confess that I can't stop myself from complaining about my job and my work schedule this week. I'm having a really hard time...yuck.
I confess that I was driving home from work yesterday and at a stop light I thought i saw my dad in another car at first glance. It obviously wasn't him and when I looked again, the guy looked nothing like him, but it didn't matter. I burst into tears at the stoplight anyways. Good thing I was only a few minutes from home. Then as soon as the light turned green, the song "One more day with you" came on the radio. Yeah...i was a mess.
I confess that even when I dont want to now, I see my family at any chance I can get even if its for a stupid party i know i wont have fun at. I just keep thinking that it might be my last chance to see them and I don't want to risk it

Re: Friday confessions
I confess that I'm not enjoying having ALL day training sessions. 2 weeks in....2 more to go.
I confess that I feel like DH and I have hardly seen each other lately and it's causing some stress.
I confess that I'm not really looking forward to FIL staying with us tomorrow night. We're moving tomorrow morning and DH got this brilliant idea to have FIL stay over in our new place so that we could do breakfast or whatever Sunday morning for Father's Day. I'm annoyed because all I want to do this weekend is unpack and organize....not entertain. And I'm certainly not looking forward to having my FIL around for our first night in our new place
I confess that one of the new guys that I work with is super annoying and every time he talks I want to punch him.
I confess that even though I typically love marching band, I really feel like it's almost getting in the way of me enjoying the end of my pregnancy. While I enjoy talking about it, I am not a fan of talking about it non-stop, which is all the kids (& parents) want to do, and I'm also sick of them staring at (or trying to touch! GAH!) my stomach like I'm some kind of alien. I can't imagine what it's going to be like when I'm 7/8 months in August at camp when I'm huge, hot and heavy. I love being pregnant, I just don't like people invading my personal space ALL THE TIME.
I confess that I am sometimes envious of how close my mom and sister are. When I was her age, my mom was pregnant and we had a hard time getting along. Right now they are headed to Pittsburgh on a mother-daughter road trip to see Taylor Swift in concert tomorrow night. This is not the first trip like this; they took a number of trips last year to go to the shower thrown my my MIL, took a trip down here to visit DH & I and my cousin who lives nearby, and some others thrown in there. Mom and I never did stuff like that. The closest we got was when she'd drive to Pitt to pick me up from school for winter and summer breaks. My sister is supposed to be going through that phase where I'm cooler that our mom, because I'm younger, but it seems we are skipping that phase of life.
I confess.... we are moving to.... Windsor, CT. (no posts on facebook) I'm slightly bummed by the fact DH still wants to wait to get a house. I can't believe how expensive everything is. I do not want to live in an apartment anymore. I hate having to control my child every moment because some neighbor is disturbed by his foot steps. Or just the looks from me yelling at him on a constant basis. lol
I confess i'm bummed I have to find a job that will hire me day shift and DH is going to work second shift.
I confess I'm really irritated with my computer as it just randomly deletes everything I type or do.
I confess that sometimes I wish DH and I had just kept our jobs that we had after undergrad so we could be doing things my other friends are doing, like buying houses and starting families. Instead, we went back to school and so are what feels like "behind." It's kind of a sucky feeling.
I confess that I should really get a part time job this summer in case I don't land a good teaching job next year, but I really need a break. I think I'm going to catch up on reading and cooking and everything I want to do instead. That way I'm prepared if I do get a great teaching job...rested and ready to go. Plus free for interviews. :-)
my read shelf:
Windor isnt too bad...and its only like 1 hour from me...so THAT's a plus! :P Look in manchester and hartford for jobs...usually lots of nursing stuff in those areas.

YEAH! Thanks for the tip, i should probably start looking.
I'm glad you guys have figured out where you're moving! That has to be a relief. What about looking in Springfield, MA for jobs? That's not too far away.
I'm was looking into the reciprocity for my license for MA. Lots of potential I already see for me there. If I get the wound care certification i'd be set!
I confess that I haven't been on this boards in many months and I miss you.
I further confess that the reason I came here was to see who is pregnant because we are going to start trying really soon.
Now the best one...
I confess that I poisoned my DH tonight. I had done the first 82 steps of making lettuce wraps and it wasn't until AFTER I put in the hoisin sauce (Chinese BBQ sauce) that I realized the expiration date was our wedding date! (7/17/10)!!! After all that work I was not about to throw it all away! I wasn't going to mention it until my DH's stomach started grumbling and his farts smelled like something died inside him. OPPS!
OH MY GOSH I laughed so hard at this! lol
LOVE this!!
Welcome back to the board Anne! Come back and play more often!
