- i get mini panic attacks every time i use a vending machine. i think my junk food is going to get stuck, and my craving will never-ever-ever be satisfied.

- i'm now 41 days from my due date, and it's still hard to believe that i'm pregnant at all. i'm wondering when this whole thing will sink in.everything we've done to prep is just "going through the motions" and following checklists. it's hard to believe that it's ME that's pregnant.

- MIL has invited us over for dinner 2 days in a row, and we've accepted, because i don't want to cook. i'm hoping she'll invite us again today, so i can have another day-off.

CongratS! I hope the 3rd trimester is treating you well!

And yay for free food!

I have a sore throat and I'm exhausted, and I'm probably going to skip the gym tonight for that reason. I missed spin class last night because I felt like death. But I won't have time to hit the gym tomorrow or Friday, so that puts me taking a whole week off, except for skiing on Monday. So, while everyone else is working on their new year's resolutions, I'll be sitting on the couch. Maybe I'll watch my DVR'd Biggest Loser premiere just to rub it in my own face some more.

At least I can eat mostly healthy whilst sitting on the couch. But my Saturday morning run is going to be rough

confession: i both love and hate people at work. but because i'm nice, i feel like saying hate is the meanest thing ever.. so i treat them extra good. it doesn't make sense but it's what it is.

for the longest time i didn't wear underwear to the gym.. it always chaffed and i didn't like it. i'm thankful that i've lost some weight and it doesn't chaff lie it used to because i found holes in my pants yesterday and luckily i had underwear on.. otherwise my butt would have been showing.

i really want cheesecake or icecream and some sort of fast food right now. i feel shitty and for some reason eating something unhealthy seems like a good idea. i'm out of it.

jenn- it'll sink in when that baby girl is in your arms..

S/O underwear, I have a super random confession... mine is on inside-out today. I just noticed, 6 hours after getting dressed in the dark. Whoops.

I've heard it can be 'good' to let yourself indulge once a week. maybe decide ahead that it's something that won't throw you off completely (I wouldn't go on a 24hr marathon of fast food) - get a burger, fries and shake Friday night. It would satisfy the craving and be a nice reward for sticking to your diet all week. You might also find that you feel better when eating the healthy food and worse when eating the 'bad' food, so you'd actually start training your body to like that fast food less!

my confession: I secretly enjoy when H is annoyed or mad at his mom because I want that to be fresh in his memory whenever there are discussions of them visiting or moving near us.

for instance, he has this stupid idea that, regardless of our living situation, we should host his parents because they are family and 'you don't make family stay in a hotel'. Um, we live in a small apartment, with cats that she is allergic too. And she drives us crazy! It's not like we have an 8-bedroom mansion and are making them sleep on the streets. He's started to give in a little and realize it's not really going to work (they want to visit for 2 weeks in June), but I swear he forgets how much he hates living with her - so visiting them for Christmas was actually good for me because it reminds him what it's like

Confession: I want to crawl in to a hole and hide for a long time. I just don't know how much longer I can do this. Things aren't getting any easier for me and/or H. It's like neither of us can catch a break right now.

We just found out that his BFF has been doing and dealing some pretty harsh drugs. Thankfully, he started a 21 day inpatient treatment program, but H isn't doing too well. There's now a chance that H will have to drive to CA to go get all of his friend's stuff from his apt and try to tie up his loose ends for him. He won't let me help either.

Confession 2: H is starting to get cold feet about getting the snip snip and it's starting to look like our only option. I'm 3% worried he's going to want kids at some point.

- This is the first real day off I've had since before Christmas, and I'm cleaning like crazy because the light in the kitchen is being all wonky, and neither H or I want to call maintenance to come fix it because the apartment is so trashed from both of us working OT and the holidays and stuff. BUT I get really fed up that my days off usually consist of trying to run all the errands, cleaning, etc., but on his days off he *might* do the dishes and take out the trash. But if I don't clean like crazy today, then the apt is still going to be trashed next week when we have a friend flying in from TN. Ugh.

- The house we've been in the process of buying has most likely fallen through, and the idea of starting over the whole looking and signing mountains of paperwork process is really overwhelming to me, especially the idea that the next house could fall through too.

-Despite the gripes, I'm in a pretty good mood though, so that's confusing, but good

ETA: We went to see Girl with a Dragon Tattoo this weekend, which was good, but one of the previews was for the new movie about exorcisms or something, and I'm a HUGE scaredy cat, and even though I had my eyes closed and my ears plugged, I could still hear basically everything that was going on because we were in a freaking theater. So, now I'm creeped out, and don't want to take a shower because it's just me and the furbabies, but I need to leave the apt at some point today to get a new sponge to clean the dishes haha

LegalBritt:
Dh tends to be really controlling when it comes to home decorating. He usually has a vision of what he wants something to look like and can not be flexible enough to stray from that vision (this is a quality in him that is evident in every part of his life). All of the things I like for our nursey he poo-poos saying that it's too much and our nursery should be very minimalist and simple so the baby isn't over stimulated. This is based on a book that he read that is now gospel to him. So he's taking all the fun out of thinking about nursery decorating. I don't want a plain nursery. I want something beautiful and whimsical and wish he would just let me create my vision for once.

my H will be a Dr in June, will that be soon enough for him to email your H and tell him that (insert the one you want here) bedspread and paint color are ideal for babies?

lol yes although H is pretty strict about not wanting to be called a Dr until he actually graduates (it's a pet peeve of his when med students say they are Drs when they aren't) - although who are we kidding, we're a bunch of internet 'strangers' and my H could just be a love Dr

hahaha, this reminds me... one of the people we were in Hawaii with is a gal who has her doctorate in psychology and is about 1-2" shorter than I am. I'm of average height -- 5'5 -- but DH is always teasing me for being "short" (he comes from a family of giants; at 6'1, he's the second shortest guy in his generation!).

Anyway, DH was teasing me about being "short" in front of her. So I turned to her and was like, "I'm not short, am I?" "How tall are you?" "5'5!" "Nope, that's average height."

So then I immediately turn to DH and was like, "See?? SHE says I'm not short! And SHE'S a DOCTOR." XD
