Where did this summer go?? We've been on the go every weekend and because we've been so busy we've been focusing on one week at a time. Now summer is gone. It wasn't even hot enough for us to call it summer. I want a do over.

Wanting to strangle my BIL right now.  He watches DS once for us, now I have been dealing with daily tantrums of him wanting a cookie from the cookie jar... he may be ok with letting his daughter eat cookies, pudding cups, & teddy grahams all day, but I am not!  DS didn't even know there were cookies up there til this.  Just waiting for the phase to pass. I have a hard enough time getting him to eat normal food as it is, I did NOT need this added on top!

It's my first Monday back to work after 10 days off.  Need I say more?

Back pain I get it! But you are really intruding on my plans of getting our house in order! UGH!

I agree about wanting a do-over for summer. DH spent most of our summer studying so I feel like we didn't get to do anything fun!

Another thing... why oh why do I keep waking up at 3 in the morning? It wouldn't be so bad if I could just get up, pee, and go back to sleep but I feel like I'm just laying there for hours. My ass is dragging today.

@mrsjenni Mondays are usually hellish for me but I feel sorry for you today--ease back in if you can.

Over the weekend I went grocery shopping and this asshat of a Mom literally said, "Anyday now" behind me as I was walking down an aisle (there was more than enough space to manuever her cart around me I only had a hand basket for cripes sake!) I stopped, turned, gave her the death glare and said, "Wow patience really is a virtue.  Go around me if I'm not going fast enough." 

To which she replied, "Oh you're expecting, sorry I'm just trying to get out of here before the lunch rush hits."

And I then said, "Well if that's the case then by all means princess let me clear your path!"  She got all red and hustled passed me.  DH just laughed the entire rest of our shopping trip!

We've had a "reasonable" summer, as far as temperatures go, but lack of rain. Now, we are going into our 8 hottest days this year. So far, they haven't agreed to let school out early (our middle school is 3 stories, and not air conditioned, if that is let out early, they let all schools out). I hate heat + humidity, always have, and I can't wait for fall temps.

HeartOverMind

Ok, I'm going to be really petty right now, but if my co-worker does not stop coughing I'm going to flip out. OMG! I can't even concentrate. He coughs one pathetic cough like every 10-15 seconds. I want to freaking throw something over the divider. I would be less annoyed if he would actually COUGH- but these are little pathetic...I don't even know. UGH! Is it time to go home already?

Effe you season change related allergies. Effe you!

Also I like getting my u/s cervical checks but man I hate the dildo-cam! I have to shave and get all presentable for it.

WOW! What a jerk! Good for you for saying something. I always wish I had the guts to be more vocal about rude behavior!

AshleyM0125

I walked into work today and (as if I'm not feeling big enough already) the girl I work with was like, Wow, you look so much bigger today than you did Friday! You really look pregnant now!

I know. I am pregnant. Thanks.

For all those missing summer, feel free to come visit me - I'm O.V.E.R. the 100 degree weather and I don't think there is an end in sight!!!

19 weeks tomorrow and I still haven't felt baby move. I know, I know, give it time, but I am getting impatient. Come on LO, give me something!

Arrgcr

It's been over two weeks and we are still fighting fleas... We've done bombs, carpet powders, keeping the cat up in the garage, sprays, and now we are onto the borax, salt, and baking soda homemade stuff. Next will be diatomatous (misspelled sorry I don't feel like looking it up) earth. It's disgusting to say the least. Luckily they aren't in any bedrooms but they are upstairs in the loft and in the living room/dining area, hallway, and downstairs bathroom. We hang out in the bedroom as long as we can until we have to venture out lol.

My work email hasn't been working since last wednesday and I havent been able to access emails (have a home office so have to do it by phone). Been on the phone 4 different times with IT reps and noone can seem to fix it. SOO ANNOYING!!!!!!

SvedkaStoli

My project is going live tomorrow and I got stomach flu! Although I am secretly happy to spend a day in bed.

pennstated912

This NEEDS to be Friday. I can no longer wait for my A/S.

Also, MIL, if you think it is such a bad idea that we are finding out the sex of the baby and you don't want to know, then don't f'in come to the reveal!! Telling me over and over that you disapprove of us finding out isn't going to change our minds. Also, stop trying to make this about you. DH and I created life and for once this is completely about us!

OSUWifey09

I am really hoping this week goes better than last week. It was absolute chaos.

My mom and I got into it this weekend over how I discipline DS and how I'm handling my household. We got into a screaming match. Klassy. My poor dad had to talk me down so that I didn't have a breakdown; I know I've been stressed out a lot lately, and it's no bueno. Ugh.

DS slept like hell last night and kept waking up, so I kept waking up. And I have to drive 3 hours roundtrip for my a/s. I need some caffeine or something.

purplepenguin2011

I just need the holidays to get here to keep me distracted.  I'm so over work these days.  Things have just slowed WAY down for me and i'm just not engaged.  I'm finding myself wishing that it was January just so I can be on maternity leave!  So i've decided that I need the holidays to get here to that i can decorate and plan and have something on my mind besides baby and how much my job blows right now lol.

You go girl! Tell it!

Ooo I have another gripe lol. That reminds me, my mil won't even let you say the word 'boy' around her now that she's had a dream its a girl. She'll correct my husband if he says 'he or she'. Last night her reply to DH was 'Dammit, its a girl I told you.' Like really? Just because you had a dream when I was pregnant with DS and it turned out right doesn't mean it will every time! I'm sure someone dead was holding this baby too like last dream. *shudders with the creep factor*

We were out-of-town all weekend and got back really late last night. We got up this morning and our internet was out. So I spent an hour on the phone with Century Link getting it fixed. What pissed me off is they kept saying how I could chat with an agent through the website. Hello?!?! We don't have internet! How the heck are we supposed to chat online?

TNgoldengirl

Annoyed with MIL. She buys my DD new clothes/toys every single week..which is fine for her house, as long as it doesn't become a problem when LO gets older and starts expecting it or goes there to get something we wont let her. Fine line between spoiled brat and being well taken care of. But I'm tired of all the ugly Walmart stuff, just because its on sale! Eck!! Venture outside our little town and at least find something cute.

Then, she comes over to help paint living room, which is a huge help..but DH tells her to bring food. So she brings deli meat, cantaloupe, and watermelon..all of which I have plenty of. And a whole loaf of white bread which will end up being thrown away, because we eat wheat, which she also brought. They just annoy me so much because they know I hate wasting food and asking her to bring it makes me look bad like I didn't have any.

I am grateful for her and she means well. But oh how I wish we lived a city over sometimes so we could have room to breath. Hanging out with her 4 whole days this week took its toll!

She's got a 50/50 shot

MIL keeps telling me that we are having a boy (even though she doesn't want to know!! Ahhhh) - because "someone" has to carry on DH's last name. Sorry, lady, as much as I would love a boy - that's not why.

I have been interning for a huge mortgage company for the last 3 months- when I left my old job to come on as a paid intern here I was nervous because I needed a career with benefits for LO and not just a 3 month thing. The man who recruited me to the company said 90% of interns get to stay on for full time positions and I had nothing to worry about- the whole point of having interns is to have them stay on if they want to.

I have been contacting my boss every couple of weeks throughout the summer about how much I want to stay on - and how can I ensure that happens- she made it sound like it's a sure thing and I'm right in line to stay on.....

and now they aren't keeping ANY interns- not one.

Cheers to job hunting at 5 months preggo!

I just want to go to bed and sleep for days.

Amen girl! Some people's reasoning blows my mind! She'll be upset if you're on your tenth kid one day and it's all girls!

My mil and SIL believe her dream so much, they are already buying girl clothes... My hubs told them to keep the tags on and receipts and they took offense because they 'are right'. So out of spite they threw the receipts away and are washing the clothes to 'help us out' O_o

Are you for real? Find out where they bought them and get a store credit - whether or not they are right :-P sorry, I'm feeling vindictive today lol

Arrgcr

I know. I feel the same way too! If it turns out to be a boy, they'll prolly keep it all 'for next time' or something. Ugh! I feel so hateful today sorry lol

LadyJ2949

I'm sick of people commenting on my body. If it wasn't appropriate before I was pregnant, why all of the sudden do you think it is ok now?? I keep getting the "wow, you're really pregnant!" Or, "look at that belly." My favorite was "you must be having twins.""

I was at a wedding last night and people who hadn't seen me in a while (who obviously didn't mean to insult me) were saying a variety of the comments above. I just don't get it.... do they have any tact whatsoever??

brideandbreve

I have another migraine.

I have another 4 hours here today.

I scheduled my anatomy scan for tomorrow morning instead of today, and now I'm wishing I had scheduled it for today because today sucks so bad.

I had it out with my MIL on Friday afternoon.  MY H and I sat down with her and explained that we didn't appreciate her second guessing our desicions, constantly!  We brought up numerous references about daycares, how many children we are going to have, what I can and can't eat, exercise, where we register, what we register for, etc.  Basically we said all of her input is not welcomed unless we ask for it because it hurts our feelings the way she says everything even if that isn't how she intends it to be.   It was a great weight off of my shoulder and even though there were tears on her end, she understood, I think.   As far as the clothing and food... my MIL will do the same thing but she does this because she wants to, not because she feels like we can't take care of ourselves.  If is her way of making a contribution to our happiness.  I usually just tell her what to bring now so we avoid having to throw things out.  We also told her to check with us first on what she is buying for our child.  Not that she has to with everything but we also don't want a household full of "stuff" useful or not.

I'm going in for the third time today to try to talk to my principal about being pregnant/maternity leave. I'm a music teacher so I wanted to give him enough of a heads up to plan for it (since the musical and concerts are going to be during my leave and I direct those). I've gone in two times during his office hours and he hasn't been in so I specifically made an appt. to talk with him today. I'm over it though. Just be in your office when you're supposed to be there so I can try to be courteous and give you a heads up. I'm kind of done driving across town to tell you in person. I could have just sent you an email. Hopefully he'll be there today ORRRR he can just find out the first day of school- how's that for communication. arg!

juliasmama2010

I feel like I'd be more productive at work if I were at home. I hate coming to work when I have absolutely nothing to do. I have a pup to take to the vet and sleeping to catch up on. Wish I were at home!

PreDempsey

My MIL has a ton of girly stuff from our nieces that she is holding on to for us (since before we were even married) and wants to know the sex of the baby, even though we are team green..

She wants us to have the tech write it down so we can sent it to her so she knows if she should keep the stuff or not. I totally understand it but in the back of my mind I'm kind of like well if we don't know, no one gets to! From the time of our a/s to the birth it's only 20 more weeks and since they live 13 hours away we won't get to see them any time before that happens. Am I being petty?

TNgoldengirl

@predempsey if she has held on to that stuff for that long, she can wait 20 more weeks! I think it's so funny how all these MIL, aunts, etc think they should get to know, even when the parents don't.

mj0413

I'm in that same boat! I graduated in May with my bachelors and can't find anything. Now I'm starting to show and I just don't know who'd hire a pregnant woman! Or if it's even worth it! Ugh. Makes me want to SCREAM.

First day of school after a week of cold/cough from hell.  I was coughing so hard over the weekend I think I pulled a muscle below my belly - OUCH!

Also I like getting my u/s cervical checks but man I hate the dildo-cam! I have to shave and get all presentable for it. 

Lol to the dildo cam. And getting presentable? Worst part of the whole thing! Hell, I can't even reach my calves without holding my breath. And my bikini area? Pfft! All by feel, and I am so nervous I will cut myself, ha ha!
