Thanks for all the hugs ladies. I'm feeling better this morning than yesterday so I'm hoping that means today is a good day. 

------On a more happier note---------

We are getting new living room furniture, its my early Christmas present!! It will be here Dec. 3rd. Yay to finally having something thats new and ours! We've had hand-me down furniture for about 7 years now

Hooray for new furniture!  We bought a great big sectional sofa recently and we absolutely love it.  Before that, all our chairs and couches were hand-me-downs or super-cheap things that fell apart quickly.  I hope you love your new living room as much as we do!

We got this exact set. I've had my eye on it for a few years but we always had other financial priorities come up. I'm super excited and feel more adult now lol.

I am judging the shit out of the ladies sitting behind me waiting for the previews to start for Hunger Games. Your baby is making noise because it is bored, and you suck at life for bringing your child to disrupt everyone else's movie experience. That baby does not give one fuck about this movie, get a sitter or stay the eff home!

I hate when moms bring babies to theaters. I'm all for moms' rights, but this is rude to everyone in the audience. When I went to see the last Fast/Furious movie, a baby was startled by all the noise and her approximately 17-yr-old mom kept getting up and walking out, then coming back. She did this about six times and it was SO distracting.

I never understand this. Yes, I understand wanting to go out and do adult things and SOME of those things you can do with baby. I always give the side eye when someone brings a toddler to a symphony concert. They aren't interested in 3 hours of music!!! We have awesome children's concerts where they can listen AND be loud and squirmy if they need to.

Hooray!  I wrote an article for work and submitted it to a ton of newspapers, and 2 papers printed it!  I'm irrationally excited about this.

Can I trade DH in for a new one at 5years in (and 19w pregnant)?! Is this an option?! Ugh.

Mamamonzo

Must be nice to sleep until 10:30 right? Where's our TP thread for the day because DH is about to get that and a kick in the balls. Augh.

I always wait until the weekend after Thanksgiving to put my Christmas decorations up...but I feel like Thanksgiving is falling late this year! I might just do it today...1 month until CHristmas eve!!!

Last night I was a little upset at DH for going to the bar with his buddy for the second weekend in a row. Well, we texted all night up until I fell asleep right around 11:30.

Around 12:40, he bursts into the room and says "omg baby I'm so sorry". I asked him what was wrong and he just kept saying "this might be the end of us baby, I'm so sorry..". So, finally I just told him to shut up and tell me what was wrong and he told me it was best if I just saw for myself, gave me a hug, asked if I would love him no matter what and led me to the kitchen.

Well to my surprise, he snook away from the bar, went to Walmart and got me a brand new Kuerig (mine was broken), coffee, coffee creamer and some Reese's cups! Lol! He really had me going for a minute. He successfully surprised me, which isn't easy to do. He said it's our anniversary present

I'm not a huge fan of Seinfeld, but, this reminds me of when Elaine sleeps at Jerry's parents house and her back gets stuck. Then they give her muscle relaxers and she gets all loopy and starts yelling "STELLA" at a party. I took muscle relaxers back in the day and I never got that loopy, but I would always yell STELLA for fun. Sorry your back is killing :-(

You clearly weren't taking enough muscle relaxers! Or you should have added some pain killers in there!

Sorry you're in pain calli! I would add that to a list of reasons not to spend the night at the inlaws! (unless of course you like yours)

The closest movie theater to us also has a night for moms and babies. This theater has a 21+ side too, which is awesome. Huge, comfy leather seats, and it serves beer and wine I think there is waiter service too.

That's the type of theatre we're doing to see Catching Fire on Tuesday. If you're a rewards club member, it's a free VIP upgrade Mon-Thu, and with this pregnant back, they are the only chairs comfortable enough to sit through an entire movie. Did I mention they sell bacon popcorn up there??

Stace0616

I seriously want to stop there right now and get some bacon popcorn to go. Bacon is like the only meat I've ever consistently been ok with during pregnancy. It DOES count as meat, right?

I seriously am considering doing away with my FB and Instagram account.  I am not on either one that much, but I can't take some of the people on their anymore.  They are my friends and I love them, but their constant posting of status and selfies (like 3-4 a day), it's just rubbing me the wrong way.  I seriously just had a friend post a picture of her when she first got up with the caption "I don't always look rough, but when I do, I always look this good."  Arrgghhhhhh...

Then another friend posts the same stuff on FB and Instagram, so it's like a double whammy.  She NEVER smiles, just makes this face.. I am not even sure how to describe it.  It's always tagged "Selfie Monday, Selfie Tuesday, etc."  Maybe I am just extra bitchy, because I have been feeling like crap and not sleeping, plus had to work two of my days off... who knows?  I promise I am not normally so negative!

I told my boss I was too pregnant to work a 14 hr shift on Black Friday. She cut it down to 5. I'm not ashamed

When I had DS they actually had specific theaters/times/showings that were mom and baby friendly to try and avoid that kind of thing. I forget where to find the information, but I know a bunch of the girls on my BMB tried it out and it was nice. You're not stressing about your baby crying and ruining the movie because everyone has a baby and might do that, kwim?

I just found out my theater does this! We were at Hunger Games last night and they had an advertisement for first Tuesday of the month it's a movie geared towards families where parents can bring ther babies. Great idea! But unless it's an event like this, babies in ANY kind of theatre is a major no-no. I'm pretty sure this isn't a thing I'm going to regret saying bc I'm a first time mom; it's a hard rule for me. No babysitter, no movie. And, as a theater person who's spent their life watching parents bring too-young children to the theater, I can firmly say that my kids will not be exposed to that kid if culture until they are old enough to sit through it and behave themselves. Children's theater and theater in the park excepted, of course.

Maybe delete those specific people instead of your whole account? I had to do a Facebook cleanup recently, but it was nice to get the incessant whiners/selfie-posters/workout junkies off my feed.

You can also take them off your feed without deleting them in case you want to keep them as a contact down the road.

This is what I do. It's better than unfriending, and I can still keep my FB account.
