Re: Mid Week Vents and Confessions
Vent: I hate instructions that just come with pictures. I need words. We got our new blinds and the instructions just have pictures with one word, like "bracket." Uhhh ok that doesn't help me at all. I need something like "Take Screw E and put into the left hole in Bracket D, etc etc"
Confession: Since we uncovered our couches, we've gotten way less done. It was so much easier to get up and get stuff done when we didn't get stuck in the comfy couches.
We have to meet the buyer today at one of our local Credit Unions since we owe a small amount on the Jetta. DH is freaking out that the seller's check isn't going to be good, that the CU is going to cash it and we'll be out the $$ or that the CU just won't take the check. The seller is military and the $$ is coming from USAA, I think we'll be okay.
We're getting $1k more selling it than the dealer offered for trade so it's a great deal... It just would have been so much less stressful to trade instead.
DH's sister is likely moving in w/us for an undetermined amount of time all the way up to possibly February. I really do love her, but there are a million different valid reasons why this seriously annoys me & I kind of feel like a biotch for it.
Vent: I am so tired of my one CW acting like my maternity leave is going to be a vacation. I don't know if he really thinks that, or just likes to give me crap, but it's not funny. Hopefully I'll get the last laugh by not coming back here and getting a new job! The reason he's so salty is b/c two of our outside sales people will be in the office while I'm out, and they're awful and really don't want to be here either. Most negative work environment ever.
OMG, people do that on Hodges too, and I used to DIE every time. I'm so glad we moved!
My vent: MIL's mind is going even worse than I originally thought (like asking the same things multiple times a day, but several different things, not just one), and DH and FIL are either in denial or completely oblivious, and it peeves me off! 1) Dementia is nothing to mess with, especially since it runs in the family, 2) there are usually a host of other problems that come with it, so she needs to see a doctor, and 3) are you so blind that you really think she's just this forgetful? I feel like a biotch constantly saying something about it because I know it hurts DH, but I'm about ready to talk to FIL myself if he doesn't say something! ARGH!
"My 101 List - Updating asap, I swear!
WTF body? You just had a period two weeks ago & now you're doing it again. WHY?!
No vents this week, I'm in a surprinsingly good mood.
Confession: I love the Teen Wolf show on MTV and I think all those little boys on there are pretty darn cute. (I checked, they are all 20 or older, so don't pull out a pedo card or anything, mkay?)
I confess that it's my 2nd day of being back in the office and I am here with you ladies on the Nest! (But I have to log off soon and get back to work
)
Vent: This morning I wanted to get ready and get in the office earlier than I did on Monday, but DH was asking me all kinds of questions about making DD breakfast: "How much oatmeal should I make her?" "How much milk does it need?" I'm lucky he didn't ask me to pick out something for her to wear ...
How is it that my BABY is going to be 3?
BFP-2/25/11; 8 Wk U/S-3/25/11-No HB, measured 6.5 wks; D&C
Mine is a vent I guess. I want this baby out, I'm so tired of being so uncomfortable and the all day long contractions and constant pressure are killing me. Not to mention the random feet in the ribs with little arms pushing my hip bones out all at the same time - you want to stretch? Come out! There's a LOT more room out here!
Plus, I don't want to finish what I'm working on right now for work. I just don't want to think about it.
I said those EXACT words yesterday!!! Seriously, tons and tons of room out here!
