Monday Moan-day anyone?

I'm tired. Body hurts, been fighting bronchitis for 3 weeks now and I feel exhausted from it. It's pissing rain here and I woke with a migraine. Baby girl has a nasty cough now too :( it's her first birthday next week and I'm not quite sure what to do besides a smash cake because her dad's family aren't involved and I don't have many friends to come celebrate with us. I need a couple days away from my kids to regroup :)
Oh and baby's out of milk, it's pouring rain and I don't drive and her strollers are soaking wet Fml.

Anyone else wanna bitch? Lol feel free !!

Re: Monday Moan-day anyone?

  • My grandmother is dying.  She's been in out-patient hospice care for a couple weeks now, it's just awful to see her deteriorate.  My grandfather died in the hospital and she vowed she wouldn't go that way.  We're all trying real hard to deal with this as best we can.  On top of that, BD contacted me because he wants to see *my* daughter.  I know his mother will be in town tomorrow and he knows that I know.  I think he requested to see her because of this.  First, he was telling me that the only thing keeping him from killing himself was my daughter.  Then when I told him he would only be allowed over if my boyfriend was present, he started throwing out stuff like "well, good thing about Illinois father's rights" or whatever, to which I reminded him that he's not on the birth certificate so he can't claim these rights.  And that I knew he didn't even have a lawyer.  Then he threatened to go to court, I said bring it, he began going all over the place with "I started a savings account for her, I just want to kill myself, I want to see her one last time, I want to be part of her life, I'm a shitty person, you'll be happy when I'm dead".  I'm contemplating calling the police because I don't know if he's serious, or if he's suicidal or homicidal.  Of course, my dad, his mom (or parents) *AND* my boyfriend will be over when he comes so I just don't know if he would try anything.  I'm not sure I can handle his bullshit when all I want to do is be with my family, with my grandma.  I can't take off work to hang out there as much as I really wish I could.  I feel really stuck.  I'm sorry, this is probably the most depressing post of the day, but that is what is on my mind. :(

    I'm so sorry to hear about ur grandma :( that's not easy at all.
    As for Dbag, what a jerk!! My BD pulls the same shit, every weekend. Gets drunk and says all kinds of crap, 'I love u, I'm sorry, my life sucks, I keep effing up, nobody loves me, I'll be dead soon so I can't cause anyone else anymore pain..' It's irritating!!! I was being supportive after all he did til I got mad and told him to just go do it already. How is it that these men can do all kinda to us and their kids but they will drain the LIFE out of us??
    I hope u get to spend some time with ur grandma Hun xo

  • @roxalot sorry about your grandma, but hopefully she'll find some peace and comfort. So glad she go to meet your LO.

    To Pm for you computer click on the envelope in the top right corner or click on a users profile and the "send message" . From mobile, go to forums then at the bottom "go to inbox" and I think you can do it from there.

    Btw, how cute are those bows on your baby???

  • Bows are so adorable! I wish Ella would keep hers on :(

  • Oh, Harley only keeps them on for about long enough for me to take a picture before she starts crying.  She's going to end up being a tomboy much to my delight.  My mom said that she would help make Harley be a girly girl but I just don't think that's going to happen, LOL
