FFFC

catmagick

Okay ladies, let's hear em. Flame free (but not really) Friday confessions! Because it just wouldn't be the Almost-Weekend without this thread!

Mine is that I'm completely terrified of starting my new job next Friday......the 13th!!! What?! Who starts a job on Friday the 13th?!?! Oh, and also that I still cannot figure out how to do a new siggy pic because I can't figure out how to resize it with the new Bump. This makes me feel like a jackass.

Also........I may or may not be overly excited about being the person to post this week's FFFC........

My parents had bought a new house awhile ago and gave their farm to my brother. My brother sold the farm for 55,000 (was bought in 98 for 25,000) and I was told I'd get a small portion... Uhh yep didn't happen. Apparently they decided a new rv was more important. I can't help but to be pissed.

S/O to yesterday's bra UOs. I wear my bras for like 2-3 weeks before I wash them unless they start to stink. I have two bras that fit and I rotate them.

Ditto. I alternate between black and nude. I wash them probably once a month.

The grime helps the hair on my bewbies grow

I watched saved by the bell this morning, while eating frosted flakes.  Then listened to backstreet boys.  Clearly, I miss my childhood today.

@catmagick I used imgur to resize my pics before I put the code in my siggy. I had a hard time with it, though. That's why I just went with the really tiny ones. 

My FFFC - When school started 3 weeks ago I told myself I wouldn't Bump at work. (I'm busy enough already!) Yet here I am, as my students take a quiz. I'm dreading the inevitable day when I forget to close this browser tab and "Trying to Get Pregnant" shows up on my SmartBoard.

This sounds like the best.morning.ever.

Totally was.

I even added extra sugar to my frosted flakes.

I just bought a ten pack of undies at Costco because I really, really need to tackle the laundry pile downstairs but I am too lazy. That will buy me a few days (or ten).

The Bump is blocked at my school.

Friday confession.... I pester and whine to the DH about how I want to go somewhere and travel. He kept telling me that I just needed to 'pick a place' to go and we'd make the plans and save up the money.  So I said Costa Rica.  And now we're actually in the stages where we can legitimately plan - set dates, buy flight tickets, etc - and I've become a mess over it because I'm friggin' scared and I have no idea why.

 

Hi there - we went to Costa Rica on our honeymoon and I did a ton of research on it before booking.  Feel free to PM me if you have any questions!

My FFFC: I just made a horrible newbie mistake (you'd think after 8, almost 9 months of this I would know better!) I was having back/period cramps yesterday so I figured I'd test this morning before I got my period, just for the hell of it. I got up and peed/tested at 6:30 with a FRER, but while I was testing, I got more cramps so I figured the hell with it, and went back to bed without looking at the test. When I got up at 7, there was a faint line...DH couldn't see it at first, then he's all "well it's invalid, yada yada yada" and I know he's right, but I can't help hoping. I'm still having light back cramping, so that can't be good.

Is this a confession because it's a crazy FWP?

My sister was due September 4th with her second child. If she goes into labor by early afternoon today I'm going to go visit her this weekend (she lives 6 hours away). Although I loved being able to meet my niece, her first, an hour after she was born and would love to have the same experience with her 2nd, a part of me is hoping it doesn't happen today so I can go next weekend instead. I'm nervous about how I'm going to react holding the baby while bleeding from my C/P.

kramja01

@cramcakes Thanks, I'm crossing all my fingers and toes right now--I'll test again tomorrow. I know I've been trying less than a year, but it feels like forever and I so SO want this to be it!

I'm so sorry. Hugs to you.

@macylynn27 I'm really sorry. Good luck with the visit

I have two:

1) I have more secret boards on pinterest than public boards. I have way too many guilty pleasures.

2) I won't let my husband cut his hair.  He has this Jax Teller season 2 thing going on that I love. It's driving him insane. But I love it.

AandJ28

Hugs to you both @EmilyA724 & @macylynn27!! 

@SmurfyLite - I have 3 secret boards on Pinterest (all baby related because no one knows we're TTC) but would love to have more... I thought only 3 were allowed?? Have they changed that?

EmeJay

I've been late to work every single morning this week because of back to school traffic. It gives me a lot of anxiety. I could leave earlier, but since I already have a 1h40 commute, this would bring it to a 2h commute.

I've started to talk with SO about moving even though we bought our house last year. Ugh.

SmurfyLite

@AandJ28 - I only have 2 public: Recipes, and home. So maybe it isn't THAT bad. But still. I have a baby one, just titled "#2", and a Christmas one that I started pinning to in February because I'm one of THOSE, and a cheesy quotes one (inspiration, love, stuff nicholas sparks would thumbs up)

EmeJay

Sorry @EmilyA724 and @macylynn27

My BFF and I had our due dates 3 weeks apart and today she's going for the U/S where she'll know the sex of the baby. She's very excited and keeps on texting me and even planned a whole day of shopping for us on Sunday.

I must say that I'm over the moon for her but it still stings a little.

::BIG HUGS:: @macylynn27 @EmeJay and @EmilyA724

AandJ28

@SmurfyLite - maybe that's why. I have like 15 public boards... and I'm also one of the crazy Christmas people! I pin and buy holiday stuff all year long.

@kramja01 FX for you! I would be peeing on everything in sight if I were you

@EmilyA724 & @macylynn27 Hugs to both of you! 

My confession, we got our chromosomal & DNA testing back this morning. Before I could tell my Dr that we didn't want to know the sex, he told us. It was a girl. I think I'm more sad now than I would have been if he had said boy.

Also, I wear my bras for a week or so before washing them. I have 6, but I pretty much rotate between the same 2. I feel better knowing some of you go even longer

@emilyA724 @macylynn27  and @emeJay, creepy internet hugs to all of you.

I'm really sorry EmeJay. There is a girl at work that found out she was pregnant a week after my first C/P. It's really tough seeing her and directly comparing to where I would be in my pregnancy. It must be even harder when it's someone so close to you. ::Hugs::

I prob only wash mine like every month or two. I have about 4 that I rotate though.

EmilyA724

@beckynsean11 I'm so sorry. It must have been really difficult to find out the sex. ::Hugs::

I'm so sorry @beckynsean11. Big hugs to you.

I'm sorry that the Dr. told you before you could tell him you didn't want to know! That sucks!! DD1 is a girl and I inner cringed when I found out. I was so afraid she would hate me. She doesn't I hope the rest of the tests came back ok!

beckynsean11

@EmeJay Hugs to you too lady! It's really hard to have a friend who is so close to where you would have been & have those constant reminders.

Yeah - That's ok though. I'm so happy for her and I get to buy tiny people clothes. *hugs to you*

@thekikimonster - I may or may not sometime eat a spoonful of coconut oil direct from the jar

DH is travelling for work this weekend and this is only the second time him and I have slept apart. I tried to sleep in our bed and I was so restless without him there that I slept on the couch instead.

@emilya724 @macylynn27 @emajay... ((((Hugs)))

I have a friend that I actually meet when I was pregnant. She's my bf's neighbor. She doesn't work like me so we hung out a lot for a while because we were both pregnant and had a lot in common. She was much further along than me. When I had my mc she was so sweet always checking on me and we've kept in touch since. She had her baby Tuesday .... It was a girl (mine was a girl too). I'm going to go see her next week when she gets home to take some newborn pics of her baby. I do that for all my friends. I kinda don't want to but I'm sucking it up because she has really been a much better friend to me during my mc than some friends that I've know a lot longer.

beckynsean11

@Pintobean39 hugs! 

EmilyA724

@Pintobean39 That's really nice of you that you're going to take pictures. Good luck and I hope it goes okay
