Confession

I have been intentionally letting our foster dog poop in my neighbors yard. I have to take him out on a leash and I swear he will only poop if it's somehow illegal, like in someone else's yard. He goes in the tall ground cover next to the driveway, where they have never and would never go because they are a zillion years old and it's a steep hill. They are miserable, mean old c v n t s, and I find myself chuckling every time as we sprint back to the house. 

 These are the same old bags that left the note about my compost right after we moved in.  

Re: Confession

  • I'd let my dog drop land mines in the neighbors yard Too, if they were azzholes.  
  • I bought three cantaloupes at costco. I ate most of one last night and got a tummy ache. I am about to go cut up the second one now...

  • I took a pregnancy test this morning because I can't figure out what is going on with my period. I am charting and by all accounts the temperature drop should mean that the period is on the way. Still nada.

    BFN-- which I am only slightly disappointed by. H & I discussed TTC around Abby's 2nd birthday vs. her first. I am a little disappointed by that, but I think it would be best all around. I need to lose weight and H (for whatever reason) believes that two year spacing is better for the kids. He is a very methodical person, so I am sure he has done research or some shyt. lol

    So now, where the fook is my period?! Unless I just tested too early and completely fooked up NFP (charting to avoid). It worked for 8 years prior to Abby so I can't imagine I would suck so royally at it now. WTF, body. WTF?

    There have been a few studies recently which say that in terms of resource allocation (both financial and opportunity cost wise) a 4 year gap is optimal for child development, and especially benefits the first kid.

    I didn't look much further than that since that's the gap we're shooting for, so I was all 'sh*t yeah!' and that's about as deep as I got, hah.

    It takes your body an average of 3 years to fully recover from the trauma that is child birth. Yikes!
