For like the last month or so, whenever DH and I have our alone time we have been waking up DD. (She's still in our room, mommy is just not ready yet, but I'm working on it) So last night, we got busy on the couch, and we STILL ended up waking up DD. Apparently, she wants to be an only child....forever.
The Jahi McMath (13 y/o CA girl who was declared brain dead two weeks ago, and her parents don't want her taken off life support) breaks my heart. I cannot imagine what her family is going through.....but I think they should let her go. Her body is being kept alive by machines. IMO that is not living.

I totally agree. It breaks my heart too, and of course that would be the hardest thing to make that decision but you never would want your loved one to suffer like that.
LO is sick and I get disgusting, pure joy out of sucking the snot with our baby comfy nose (like a nose frida). When I can get up the sinuses and get a loogey it's like when a vaccuum picks up a penny! And I feel very rewarded even if he sorts hates it.
I am not sure why this is coming to mind today.... but here it is:
I am NOT a fan of my MIL. I think she shi*s all over DH and I. One night last year while I Was pregnant, she had to stay at our house. She lives with her mom and her mom was in the hospital. She was all freaked out about her brother trying to get in the house to rob her. (She dellusionally thinks she has tons of stuff worth tons of money)..... and she showed up at our house with a Vera Bradley bag of silverware...... Well, she never came back for it - so I put it in the basement.... In the same room we had a mouse problem. I'm not her storage facility.

I'm too lazy to take down my Christmas decorations. Everyday I say Ill do it tomorrow. To top it off, I get a huge urge to knock down the displays in the stores because they keep celebrating one holiday before another passes. I saw St Patricks day stuff right beside the valentines day stuff yesterday.
I really love seeing maddie in her helmet - we just focus on her facial expressions so much more, just 2 more weeks till it's off for good!
But, I confess I'm more excited than I should be for her to have it off - so I can go back to all her headbands that have been hanging out in a drawer for 3 months.
I was relieved when DD woke up the other day when my husband was trying to initiate sexy time so I didn't have to tell him I wasn't in the mood because my hemorrhoids were flaring up. Hawt.
And aren't the freaking PP hemorrhoids supposed to be gone by now?! WTH?
My boss just sent out an email reminding us that annual reviews are coming up. I am so checked out lately (and have been for the past few months) that I'm not even sure what i would say about my work performance, and HE'S so checked out that I'm not sure how he'd even evaluate me.
I'm confessing that I'm waiting on an offer from another company and I hope I can jump ship before I have to deal with the annual review process. It's a bear here.

Haha..this is me too! I think a huge part of why I love the frida is because I can actually see the snot that is being sucked out. I usually get grossed out by bodily functions but surprisingly not this one.

I confess that I am equally as, if not more checked out than you
Seriously, it's killing me. And I need to check back in. I am hot to trot on finding a new job, but not nearly as close....
And during my review when I was pregnant - I felt the same way about my boss. he had totally checked out on me. And what happened? I got a horrendous review. And that was the beginning of my strong desire to GTF out of here.

Im right there with you ladies.. I cant even begin to explain how much it's killing me to be sitting in this office on this Snow-day instead of at home with my baby girl
Sometimes i consider not coming back on this website/board ... then i think to myself "what else will i do during my 8 hours at work everyday". plus i think i would miss my cyber "friends" too much

My boss has my back, so that's good. he promoted me during my last review, while I was on bedrest, and right before maternity leave. But I honestly have no accomplishments to discuss this time -- our world is in chaos, so that is 50% because of me being checke dout, but 50% because of leadership. Sigh.
I dont' want to be a SAHM< but I'm over it with this gig.
I admittedly don't take good photos and I know this place isn't a popularity contest but... I go back to HDBD to see how many people have liked DS photo. And it's usually not as many as the posts near by. And that makes me sad sometimes. And I then I feel unpopular.
And now I feel dumb for posting this. ">
You are not alone in this, don't worry. And FWIW, I think your little red haired guy is adorable!!
I didn't have a chance to grocery shop the other night so H and I had healthy choice frozen meals for dinner...My confession: I gave LO some. in my defense they were the 'all natural' ones so there were no preservatives in it. It was tortellini which I'm sure is the same as the pre made refrigerated pasta at the store, right?

aww no! he is super adorable! I know sometimes when I try to like things on mobile it won't do it for some reason. I go back and check later and my like isnt there; so maybe its happening to other people too

@melissad23 once again I believe we are the same person. I told everyone not to call me on Sunday and I want complete quiet. Mommy time is going down!!!!!!! <:-P
I have another one. I had Happy Hour plans tonight. We bagged them because of the weather but I am not telling DH that until the last second. He has plans tomorrow night and no way am I doing ALL the duties tonight and tomorrow night, and I know that will happen if he knows I am around. He has way more fun than I do and I am sick of it.

@Kate_C. Mine flared back up the other day too - what - the - f ??!!??!
Last week I thought about posting asking if I was the only one who still had these! Glad I'm not alone at least.
Someone posted this on my other BMB last week and the consensus seemed to be that they never go away without surgery. And all of those babies are now over two. This was not the news I wanted to hear.
Boo. Is the surgery a big deal or a minor outpatient kind of thing? Maybe I need to go see my GP so I don't have to be surrounded by the sweet aroma of Prep H for the rest of my life.
Also, glad to be the president of the PP 'roids club. It appears we have a lot of members.
I am so grateful I escaped roids. They scare the bejesus out of me and you all aren't helping

I have another confession:
I haven't had my hair cut since June. I've been coloring it at home thanks to the eleventy billion new post-baby grays I now have, and I'm embarrassed to go to the salon because I think I've been doing a crummy job coloring it.
In a parallel universe, pre -baby me is squirming with shame.
