  • Don't feel bad. I ate a bunch of crap b/c it's trash day. My excuse: I could maximize cabinet/panty/fridge/freezer space by finishing off the last of things. I emptied a few containers... into my mouth.

    You really should take at least one day for yourself. I had a week and a half and it was wonderful. I got to read, took myself to movies, and wondered the mall. Can't speak for moms with older kids, but even if I am out on my own I never feel as relaxed as I did then.

     I totally agree with this.  Even now that Tman is in school all day, I still do everything on my own super fast and am always thinking about him.  When I do something when he is home with daddy, I feel like I need to get back ASAP, even if he's in bed.  The only time I feel truly relaxed is when we all go to bed.

    TTC #2 for a million years: SA normal, CD 23 bloodwork shows nothing amiss, ovulation detected. Next step: ? maybe CD3 bloodwork to check eggs? All out of pocket, so limited IF tests/treatments.
  • I want to have McDonald's SO BAD OMG. But I know I'll feel like poop after I eat it. LOL I'm thinking I'd be better off going to Mongolian Grill - but it's so expensive! Maybe I'll do Jack in the Crack. I dunno. LOL

    I have NO desire to spend any time with DH's family this weekend.

    Also, I'm kind of happy I'll have the house to myself (and M of course) on Sunday, since DH has to work for most of the morning/afternoon. This means I get to play Lego HP! :)

    This. I has almost a week to myself, and it was great. I got to sleep, clean (nest), DH and I got to spend some more time together, and it was nice to have a "calm before the storm". :)

    I always feel terrible that I can't wait for M to nap. I love spending time with her, but when it's naptime, I'm happy because I get some time to myself (or DH and I can do things without worrying about her).

  • It makes me sad that I have to wait three more weeks for Girl Scout Cookies to be available. I kind of seriously want to main-line some Thin Mints right now.

  • My confession: I'm hosting a clothing swap tonight, something my circle of friends does once or twice a year. I set it up several weeks ago and got a good number of yes RSVPs, but in the last 20 minutes or so I've gotten text after text of "oh bummer, sorry, can't be there after all" and it's bumming me out. It shouldn't, but it is. These things are 100x more successful when people actually show up... and bring stuff to swap!

  • Confession: I'm starting to rethink having a baby so soon. If I get KTFU by this summer, I won't be upset. But I just don't know if I'm ready to let go of my freedom yet. I wouldn't push it back that much, maybe another year, but it's been in my head recently.
  • Confession: I have turned into Miss Piggy. 

    I had McDonald's last night cause I was halfway home towards my couch to nap on and food to munch on when D called asking to be picked up at Montlake. So I did it, but I had to eat. So I picked up McD.

    Then my boss today wanted Arby's and so I got Arby's.

    I am having a hollow day and I want to eat people's faces off.

  • My confession: DH has had a really rough week at work, so he mentioned just wanting to hang out at home this weekend, rather than going to Vancouver, like I wanted. But if I have to stay in the house all weekend, I'm going to go stircrazy! The few friends I've made who live close to here all have super sweet/fun plans for this weekend (because it's pre-VD). So I'll probably just run errands and feel grumpy.

    That's lame. I hate it when people do that kind of stuff. It always bums me out too. I know it is not personal, but it is hard not to take it that way.

    CostCo is selling their pepperoni pizzas for 5.99 for the rest of this month.

    I might know this because we have some in our freezer. ^^;
