Confession
I'm totally hiding out in the bathroom at work right now because I'm frustrated that I have to change something I worked really hard on yesterday. In the end it's not a big deal, but I like my way of doing this thing better and I'm so annoyed to change it.
Re: Confession
Oh here's another one. I hate hate hate when people feel the need to post to Facebook everything the pin on Pinterest. I'm seriously about to hide this one girl who does it constantly. She never been good about doing things in moderation anyway and is so a bandwagon person to an annoying degree.
Sheesh, I'm in such a wonderful mood today, huh? Somebody else confess and make me feel better...
That sucks when you work hard on something and then have to change it to do it someone else's way.
The Pinterest linked to FB annoys me too. I'm following you on Pinterest (if I want to), so I don't need to see everything you pin also linked to FB thank-you-very-much.
My confession: Even though I loved not having to be the one to "entertain" Mackenzie all the time, there were times in Palm Springs I just wanted to snatch her out of FIL's arms and say "she's my baby, can I spend some time with her that doesn't involve nursing?". And he is awesome with her and I totally never thought I would be that person.
I had a half day with the kids today and could totally be at home sleeping right now if it weren't for a parent conference scheduled at 3pm. I don't mind having the conference, but the kid was out sick today, so I'm not sure the parents will show up. I left a message with them to check, but no one's called back. So, I'm just going to nest and facebook for a while and then some paperwork taken care of while waiting to see if they show up. Confession part 2: I'm probably going to skip the gym since I would much rather go home and sleep. I was pretty grumpy this morning and short on patience.

My confession: I have a friend coming over tonight who was supposed to be here for 4 days (her husband is leaving on a course and she doesn't like to be home alone)... then she changed her mind that she only wanted to stay one night, and now she's not staying over at all. But before she told me that, she got me to agree to host a scentsy party tonight and I am SO annoyed about it! I haaaate home parties and rarely go to them, but I figured I would do it to support her, but now it feels like she is using me to sell scentsy.
About the pinterest one: I couldn't agree more. It was nice to see them every once in a while on facebook at the beginning, but now I can't stand it.
My confession:
I am on school break this week, and I have done next to nothing around the house because I am totally hooked on ancestry.com. I can't stop. I've got parts of my family tree going back to the 1500's now, but I'm kind of bummed because the parts of my family that I really wanted to know more about, especially my dad's side, I haven't found much.
Another one, I got back from a nice 3 mile run a little while ago, and now I'm chowing down on chips...at least they are pita chip and baked lays...
My Mom and I used to do lots of genealogy and I agree, it is so addicting!! Unfortunately for us, my Dad's side got completely lost because a bunch of people changed their last name for some reason and we weren't able to figure out how to go back further
It's awesome that you've managed to go back so far!
I go through addiction phases with ancestry too. For the side that you can't find info on...is it anywhere that you'd be able to travel to? I dragged my family up to Canada last summer to go search in person and we found a lot of info and records in the town hall that helped go back a little further. We even found some newspaper articles about family members. Pretty cool stuff.
I sometimes wonder how my sister functions in the real world. She just texted me that she needed my opinion because Mom wasn't answering her phone. She got rear ended at a stoplight, the other driver drove off, it was a new car so no license plate, and she was wondering if she should file a police report.
Um.... duh.
Do people have to press a button to make this happen? I'm going to be really embarrassed if I've been doing it and didn't even know it!
My confession: I have had a frustrating post-stress reaction all day long. You know, the anxious, tightness in the chest, shaking hands, feeling. Typical after I have an extended adrenaline rush from a situation, but I thought I was over David's little incident thing. Blah
Second confession: I am disproportionally excited about my lip sync contest LOL
After a little more searching I was able to find a lot more info on my Dad's side. There are still parts that I am having trouble with, but much more info than I had before. Unfortunately the problem is that we don't have much info on my Dad's side, so we're not totally sure the nationalities involved. Although I did find that a large part of his side is English, which is what a lot of my family is. I have to admit it hasn't been that hard on ancestry, my family has been here for 100's of years, many back to the early 1600's, so there apparently is a lot of info.
