FFFC

Lately I am finding myself thinking of the future and I only see myself, DH and DD. It makes me feel guilty because we have always planned on at least trying to have another child and to give DD a sibling.

I have a lit of health issues and I feel like if we wait we won't be able to have another one but neither of us is ready for another one yet. I will not let the fear of not being able to get pregnant influence us.

I confessed to DH that I have a gut feeling that DD will be our only kid and he was surprisingly supportive and I feel like a dick for thinking he would be anything else.

I'm so very sorry, @jack19.

I can't even fathom the emotions that arise out of a situation like that.

I woke up with the worst kink in my neck ever. I'm planning in letting the kids watch TV while I sit with a heating pad on my neck and pout. Oh and I'm running a 5k (run or dye) with SD so I need full use of my neck. Tomorrow is my break away from the babies and I'll run it drugged up with a neck brace if I have to.

How did you get that kink in your neck???

For scientific purposes and all...

Sometimes I think if it weren't for LO, SO and I wouldn't be together.

I'm the opposite. I think DH and I would fight less if it weren't for DDs.

Sorry you are feeling that way.

We definitely would have less conflicts if it weren't for LO. But since we were only together a few months before I got KU (I'm a slutty slut) I've been pregnant or PP most of the time we've been together. We have a lot of outside stressors right now and I'm just praying once they go away we'll be better. Thank you

Anecdote for the day.

My cousin got KU at 19 with her DD after one month together with her then BF.

They just dropped off their DD at college and their DS is 16. 

It can happen.

I think I'd make a good SAHM once my kids are both school aged and I wouldn't have to actually parent them all day long. I could handle afternoons to bedtime. And then I'd have time to hit the gym, cook more & volunteer & have hobbies...

This is what I am hoping for right meow!!!

This really does gross me out. I don't know why.

Similarly, I get super grossed out if I touch a pole on the subway and it's warm.  So disgusting!

My hair is wet every.single.day when I get to work. I haven't the patience to blow it out.

The worst part about the weather getting cold is that I can't leave my house with wet head any more. In the summer I seriously wash and go all the time and my hair is usually dry by the time I get to work (hour and a half minimum commute each way ftw). But once it hits the 60's I can't roll like that any more. I HATE the cold and the thought of wet hair + cold makes me scurred.

It only hits in the 60s around Christmas here, so I don't have that issue.

I do, however, live in a place where women have stylists get them ready to go shopping at Target, so I lose no matter what.

@jack19 I didn't read your post before it got deleted. I'm sorry you had to deal with some sort of sexual harassment/assault and sorry too that you weren't supported when you did finally confess. It's shitty all around

You can unlove tit things!???!!!!

I own 2 blow dryers, 2 flat irons, and 3 or 4 different sized curling irons. They rarely get used. Especially since I discovered the salon down the street where I can show up with freshly washed hair and get a blow out and flat iron for $15.

I'm in Canada and all of this Jimmy john's talk has me very curious. Here are my obstacles:

1) I'm in Canada
2) if I go to the US it's to visit my 2 SILs that live there so I'd have to be willing to spend time with them
3) I have celiac disease and I would have to cheat on my gluten free diet to try it.

My FFFC: I'm willing to sacrifice a visit with my SILs and 2 days of diarrhea to try this sandwich. BE HONEST WITH ME IS IT WORTH IT CAUSE ILL DO IT.

I'm thinking about getting Chinese for lunch, even though I know I'll eat to much and feel like shit afterward.  

I did this Wednesday and felt like I had a rock in my stomach the rest of the day and all night.  IT was soooo yummy at the time though.  I'm reminding myself of said rock as I sit here staring at the menu in front of me.

My hair drier got taken for some home improvement project.  I haven't cared enough to replace it.  I only dry my hair like twice a year anyway.

@mamaREB29 In my experience Jimmy Johns sandwiches are 90% bread and lettuce, 5% other toppings and 3% meat. The other 2% is air. I don't get the JJ love at all.

@ReeseFox you almost knocked some sense into me until I saw @HilarityEnsued's post about the Unwich. Must try.

Nah don't do it. I like JJ but not enough for 2 days of the runs.

@ReeseFox, I can't wait for my new flat iron to come. I go to the beauty school sometimes to get a wash, blowdry, and flat iron all for $10. I was actually upset when the price was upped from $5. 

Confession: one of my flat irons actually belongs to my mom. It's a really nice CHI one that she ordered off HSN and never used. So I'm borrowing it indefinitely.

I was going to buy these really nice PBKs wall letters for Dd's room, but they were $20 a letter. So I told Mil about them and she bought them for Dd. Score.

Seriously, it's just sandwiches. There is nothing spectacular, no miracle ingredients. It's totally not worth the hassle.

CurlyQ284

((@jack19)) I know you wished you could have helped your friend but kids aren't equipped to deal with situations like that. Hell ADULTS aren't equipped either. I hope you aren't beating yourself up.

Here are some more ((hugs)).

LaurelBee

I live within 5 miles of 3 JJs. None of them will deliver to me! When I was pg with Dd, I needed a sandwich in a bad way and Ds was napping. I tried to bribe the delivery man. I even wrote a letter to JJs home office! I got no sandwich that day, bastards.

I got irritated with FIL yesterday over a fucking pumpkin.

Back story: He tells me in October that they will take Emma for a day, so they can make a big ordeal out of the first ever pumpkin they've been able to grow. He then tells me not to buy her a pumpkin. It just irked me, ya know. Like, we had plans to go to a corn Maze and pumpkin patch in October. Don't freaking tell me what I can and can't buy.

Just annoyed me.

Some days I feel like I'm totally ignored on TB.  I also think this matters to me way too much.

I bought a donut on the way to work this morning, along with a dozen donut holes "to share".

No sharing occurred.

DH and I would like another baby eventually, but sometimes I get nervous that I won't love him or her as much as I love DS. 

I've never had just one child, but from what I can tell from other parents this is totally normal.

For me it is the opposite - sometimes I think I love DD#2 more than DD#1 - then I realize it is just because DD#2 is such a good baby and DD#1 is a crazy threenager.

This is me too. I would like a happy medium. I am either ignored or under attack.

I always "see" you @Libby1978 we're homegirls and all.

And poor @mbenit4 People either love you or love to hate on you!

I used to want and enjoy sex way more before DD2 was born. Now, all I can think of is the rippin and the tearin she did, and by the time I relax enough to enjoy myself, the whole thing is over with.

This does not apply to post "oral sex" sex, which I am totally fine with and get into and have way more fun that DH probably does. But quickies? Yeah, you can keep them.

Quickies are for DH. They put him in a better mood and shut him up. I get nothing from them usually, but I can fake it.

Maintenance sex.

Welcome to my world!!!

We should just go ahead and comment on all the 4-5 hour old posts.

I suppose that's a perk of slow boards like the Dad's Board. Anything that is less than a week old is still relevant.

@Manneek1977  DS1 still wears pull ups to bed every night and he's 5.  Do we have the same kid?
