Confessions anyone?

Sometimes I wish I had a "southern" accent. 

I'm thinking about going back to my oringal SN. Sometimes I see my own posts right now, and I think "Who's Luna?"  If I don't recongnize myself, I'm sure a lof of others don't recongnize me either.  Plus, I'll get my old post count back.  Wink

I just walked outside to leave mail in the outgoing mail box.  I saw our truck in the parking lot and got all excited thinking DH got out of work early.  Then I realized I had dropped him off at work this morning.

Re: Confessions anyone?

  • I'm excited to go visit my ILs this weekend. not because I want to see them necessarily, but because I won't have to chase DS for a few days. Pregnancy exhaustion is killing me.

    I don't want to believe DS will be two soon.

    We went to purchase DS's toddler bed. On the way back out to the car, I kept pushing my keyless entry and got angry because the doors wouldn't unlock. I have DH's truck.

  • I have eaten two bags of ruffles chips by myself this week.

    If I had the chance to go home, I would.-on that level, I hate that everyone (back home for the most part) thinks that living in Italy is a perma-vacay.  

    I am blaming DH for not taking out the trash when I could be sweet and do it myself, doubtful I will however.

  • 3hrs ago, I saw this beefcake of a guy roller blading down the street.  He was wearing booty shorts with a slit on the side.  I'm still laughing bc it was so freaking random.

    I'm eating sugar free ice cream for lunch.

  • It's almost my lunch break and I'm dying to just go home and eat ice cream for the rest of the day until I go into an ice cream coma. But I'm stuck at my job and after that FI and I are going to the gym so he can practice swimming ( a little imperative for him to be able to swim for the Navy). Today just drags as it always does on the Friday of a holiday weekend.

  • DH just called. He was supposed to be home from deployment tomorrow night. His flight home got canceled due to sandstorms. He won't be home before I leave for a month. I'm very upset...

    :(

    I'm sorry. 

    I've seen a lot of military surprise homecomings. It wouldn't work on me. I always have my back to the corner and my face to the door. Looking for terrorists, criminals, various other threats, and husbands.

    I'm PCS'ing this month and I hate to be FIGMO, but I am. (F* It Got My Orders for the newbs). I can't say I'm FIGMO to anyone at work and sucks because I just don't care anymore.

    On that note, I'm purposely taking my remaining use-or-lose leave in increments designed to miss all the legal assistance, will drafting, and meetings that I hate. Not exactly responsible or something I should proud of, but that's what I'm doing. What can I say...I'm FIGMO.

  • The headband/flower I'm wearing in my hair today is Annabel's.  I found it at Children's Place and it doesn't fit her yet, so I wear it.  I bought two.  

    I'm on my second soda of the day.

  • The more and more I hear of the things my MIL is doing to DH's brother and SIL, the more and more I dislike her. 

    Another confession:  Last weekend my mom bought two baby outfits.  One for a boy and one for a girl.  I'm kind of sad that we won't get to use the little girl outfit.  Its adorable and reminds me of the dress I wore for my Kinder graduation.

  • I'm a little irritated that someone got to leave early today. If I'd had that option, I wouldn't have taken off early yesterday and would've taken it today, but I didn't think we'd be able to take off early right before a holiday. The drive home is going to be killer now. Awesome.

    Do you plan on having more kiddos?  Save it in case you have a girl next!

  • I spent the last 5 minutes of my drive home for lunch screaming OMG OMG OMG over and over again in my car. I'm still saying it in my head and probably will for the rest of the day. There are just somethings you do not tell your daughter while she is driving. " I'm going to dinner with a "friend"(read as Lady Friend) tomorrow night" is one of them. I'm happy that he is finding people to have dinner with and go to the movies with but it is seriously freaking me out. Like really. He's not ready for anything big yet like a relationship but I'm not even ready for him going to dinner with people. He went out with a female coworker a few weeks ago and that did not bother me nearly as much as this is. I know I need to just let go, he's a grown up but really you do not need to tell your daughter this while she is driving and you should make sure she is sitting down and her husband is near by when telling her these things.

    That's hard to hear. I'm sorry you were along in the car.

  • DH is going to days soon.  While  I am happy that also means that i have to put up with him making fun of the stupid shoes i watch (and some the ones he makes fun of are legit ones to make fun of). 

    I start my new job on Tuesday and i have nothing ready for it.  I also really want to go out and spend money we don't have right now on shopping (read things for the house and for me).  But I will wait untill I start getting regular paychecks and we see how all our finances fall with more money coming in.

    I feel like parents tell their kids things we don't want to hear in the car because we can't escape. It's like entrapment. My mom constantly does this and tells me things I don't want to know. Like when I was 16 and on the car ride to Fla I found out I was conceived there. In the summerhouse we went to every year. In the room that was then mine. Ew.

     

    Anyways, I know it's probably difficult to hear. I'm thinking of ya.

  • Also, I think I've been drunk more times since H has been gone than I had ever been drunk before.

    Something about living alone aside from cats makes you want a strong drink.

  • I like a guy from church and I am getting the feeling he kind of likes me too.  Yup, it's freaking me out a little bit.  But, I think it will be fun to just go out and just have fun...right?Surprise  Oh, and I will not be telling my family about this anytime soon LOL

    Find something else to do besides drinking, before it gets too out of control.  I know I drink more as well when DH is gone, bc I go out more.  A lot of my gf's are single or want fun night away from hubby and the kids.  So, drinking is usually connected.

  • I'm having contractions and these things f*ckin' hurt.  I wish they'd just get to the 5-1-1 point so I could go to the hospital and get this show on the road!  I have no clue how some women put up with weeks/months of braxton hicks. 

    I don't want to be on MSNBC, yo.
  • I am so glad my parents are taking care of Peanut right now.  It feels awesome to have just a few hours without a baby attached to me.
