Bump confessions

Okay, what do you have to fess up to lately?


I confess part of me wants to get pregnant so I can say "F It" to restricting calories and be able to eat for two again. I also confess to being thrilled that a relatively new coworker (who was a bit of a crazy chick) couldn't hack the job and resigned.

I have to fess up to smiling and playing nicely with my coworkers when I know they are all backstabbing, two faced jerks who would throw me under the bus in a minute (they are all men, by the way). I asked for a transfer a week ago, I just have to bide my time.

Sometimes working in male dominated field sucks, doesn't it?
I confess that I was bumping pretty much all day yesterday.

I have to fess up that I think I love my cat  Noobie more than my other cats (I have 5).

Sort of….

I hate my mother. No seriously. I hate her. Well...sometimes...when she drinks and calls me and all her make-believe drama becomes my problem. Soooo...pretty much every night.

I miss my dad. He used to handle her. He was never mean.

Ugh Im sorry girl….I know this one too well. My mom drank too and also got mean. Sadly when she's gone…..you will still be heartbroken. So try and love her anyway……i know its hard. Hugs.

I have to fess up that I hate my best friend's new friends. It's like I've been replaced since I got married (she's single and so are the other girls). But they are older and act like they're still in their 20s. And it's kind of sad that this is the selected lot to take my place. Ugh

I have to fess up that I hate my husbands brothers girlfriend. She wants to get married, he doesn't, so two months after my husband and I got engaged she "accidentally" got pregnant. She thinks she's my DH's BFF and texts him pics of the baby all the time but can barely mutter a hello when she sees me. I've never gotten even a thank you for any of the baby gifts I've given them, to top it off she still mails things to us and uses my maiden name, she sucks! now that I'm having trouble TTC I hate her even more. Would have been nice to get along with her being as though this is my DH's only sibling and I don't have any family of my own. It felt good to vent that.

+1 on hating mom

It's confusing and it's a bitter pill to swallow to finally see that she was/is an extremely needy person with no genuine interest in anything, including her children except in how it reflects on her.  It took some growing up and a whole lot of distance to see it.  Now that she is getting older and has old-person-problems, I can't help but feel resentful because she refused to take care of herself her whole life, and doesn't follow advice now.  I still maintain a superficial-on-my-part relationship because what's the point blowing things up now?

eskimozie

Ha! NeonNoon. That sounds so familiar. Since my dad died, she (and all her problems) has become my responsibility. She is really going to have a fit when all my time and energy is diverted to a LO. I can't wait!

My confession is I will probably never return back to work after maternity leave (if I get lucky enough to get pg). I HATE working for Corporate America, and want to be with my baby for as long as possible. I say eff them and I will just work for myself!

@IFinTN - I am currently working full time, and I also work at night doing my freelance design company. I am really hoping I can quit the day gig and just do the design company. Fingers are crossed!

I confess that I really, really hate going to the gym. I wish I liked it, but ugggggh.

A friend of mine at work declined a promotion and that will basically put her out of a job. They've been advertising this position to replace her, so she knows it's coming. I told a friend of mine, who applied and got the job. So I feel guilty that I aided the company find her replacement. Part of me feels really really bad about that and the other part of me feels like the company was going to replace her anyway and was actively looking, so I might as well get a referral bonus doing it. Plus I helped another friend who was looking for work, find a job.

I totally can relate to not returning to work (for someone else) after maternity leave, if FX I get pregnant. Before having TTTC it was a lot easier dealing with a stressful job and a pain in the ass boss. Now I have zero patience.

I confess to retyping this message three times bc I'm so aggravated right now.  I think I'll leave it at that.

I was wondering how this works because I plan on not returning to work after leave if FX I get PG. Our current plan shows that if I got PG right away, I would have a baby, be on leave for about 3 months and then return to work for about 5-6 months and then leave at the end of 2015. I would love to just quit after leave, but I'm worried about any potential repurcussions.
