I feel like I've earned another badge here. On D14 I pissed someone off big time. So much so that she wishes she could spit on me. I feel so honored lol.

I'm so upset . I have to write employee year end evaluations tonight and had all these plans to drink some good red wine while doing so. Well, we are out of red wine that isn't being saved for special occasions. So I was gonna run by the store on the way home from picking up N from daycare.

At daycare I realize I forgot my cc. So I'm still determined, and we go home, get my credit card, and head back out. I pick out some wine and then when I'm checking out they ask for my id. Facepalm. I forgot my id.

It's too late to go back out again because we need to eat dinner and I need to put N to bed. H won't be home til 9:30 so I can't run out after she goes to bed.

And now I feel like I'm an alcoholic because i feel like crying over not having red wine. Except I must be a red wine aholic because we have white wine and we have beer. I just don't want those right now.

@huckleberry08‌ That's what I tried to tell MH when he said maybe I cared about the wine too much!

@steamboat123‌ I just rummaged through our closet with the nicer wine and sent MH pics of 4 bottles asking where they came from. He keeps track of all our wine and I don't. If I didn't ask I might end up drinking a really nice bottle we bought on a vacation that cost like $75 and should definitely deserve a nicer occasion. I'm hoping there's a $20ish bottle of wine stuck in there that I can justify. All the bottles look the same to me

@riansmommie‌ she is obviously just jelly of your twitter fame

Funny you would say this because it def ran through my mind as well lol.

Red red wine! I'm so happy

Yay you got your wine!

So flame me if you want and feel free to disagree, but I wanted to bring @violet1183's unpopular opinion today up as a topic.  I know we've all kind of shied away from any kind of private group, and the facebook group didn't really work out at all, and we hated the idea when the bump came out with private gropus, but I really like the idea of having a group of our own.  I don't need new J13 friends anymore.....  

Any other opinions?  Anyone interested?  Does everyone completely disagree with me?  

WasNotWas

I won't be joining any groups...I'm fine the way it is. We are such a small boring group (in the best way) that I'm not "scared" of randoms

Agreed.

I don't want to split the group up -- it definitely wouldn't be the same if people were missing.  Just wanted to bring it up to see what people thought.

numbersgirl08

@heelibrarian yeah, I totally get that feeling too!  I don't want anyone to feel left out or lonely.

WasNotWas

I mean, poll or no poll, it's your level of comfort. If you don't feel comfortable posting here, you should start a group. I don't think anyone would feel left out if you offerred it to everyone. Everyone might not participate tho

Full disclosure, if I had to start doing something differently I most likely would just stop doing it. I'm just too lazy for change. At least social media change. But I wouldn't get hurt feelings if everyone left.
But you never know what bomb I'll drop to summon quasi-celebrities.

Only one more employee evaluation to write!  This wine is really good too.  And I don't have to work tomorrow - like, for real, ever since I started my new don't-work-on-Friday schedule, I don't think I've had a Friday where I haven't worked at least an hour, and most of the time more.

I think I might get away with only about 30 minutes of responding to emails tomorrow!

Wait, is it not fair to the employees that I wrote about at the beginning, when I first started drinking this wine, vs now?  I think I'm still unbiased.

Having another oh shit life is about to get crazy soon moment again. Looks like my FIL found us a 2012 suburban we can actually afford. Just waiting for the approval from my hubby to say yes or no. How the heck am I only 4 weeks away from having three kids!? What did I get myself into lol.

I don't recognize my tits, for the third time since 2012.

So since Grayson decided to stay up until 2 am last night and I have to be up at 6:30 for work I am going to bed early tonight! He is passed out already and hopefully stays that way. This is also my home away from home and I am so thankful for all of you. It's been a fun couple of days in the bump world! Now lets get back to our scheduled programming

I was just going to ask you if the last few employees were getting rave reviews haha!

Well, we do 360 reviews, so the first two I did were for my superiors.  The next 5 were for those that report to me.  So I guess it's fine that I hadn't had any wine when reviewing on my superiors since by nature of work  hierarchies, I'm not as tough on superiors.  

numbersgirl08

I mean, how terrible would it be to have a private group and still post here too?  Maybe that's too much for some people to check, but I'd probably check both.  And those that want a way to share more could do so over there, but still talk about fun random stuff here.

?????

I just don't want to lose anyone.  It wouldn't be this group if we didn't have some of the people who'd already said they wouldn't go.  But I'm with others who would like a place to be a bit more open about what they post.  Everything I say goes through a test in my mind: "If MH saw it, would it be a problem?  If my in-laws found this, would I care?  If my mom read this, would I be ashamed? If someone at work figured out who I am, would I be in trouble?"

Crap, maybe I should take back my drinking-wine-while-writing-reviews comments.

If we do have a poll I hope we can wait at least a week to make sure things have died down.

daffy2k

FFTC - I may just be naive, but I never feel that worried posting anything on here. I mean, I know better than to post my home address and phone number, but for the most part I just don't think anyone would bother tracking me down all the way out here. Either way, I'm cool with whatever. I don't have time to check any other boards so it would just be a shift to the new group if that's what we decided. I do totally see the appeal of a private group, especially if people are sharing personal issues that they don't want friends or family to find. I leave it up to the group

daffy2k

Ok, so real question- DH and I were just watching the CO Avalanche game and he made a comment about how now that pot is legal in CO going out for a smoke during the game must just be tons of people smoking dope (fogging the reef is actually exactly how he put it). My question, if anyone knows the answer, what happens with random drug testing when marajuana is legal? We've always been told that pot stays in your system way longer than anything else, so doing it on your own time after work would still show up next day or even a few days later. Are there new drug policies in place within companies? I just can't wrap my head around this one...

daffy2k

@smpeachey‌ that's actually exactly what we were wondering so thank you. Obviously doesn't apply to us up here in Alberta, at least not yet. We were just discussing it. DH said that companies probably still had no drug use policies, but then we were saying that maybe that could be discrimination. Like saying I can't have a glass of wine when I go home from work, kwim? The whole thing seems like it could be really confusing and a real grey area when it came to work-related stuff.

daffy2k

Well that cancels out his game day theory then @steamboat123‌ , lol. Thanks for answering ladies. Curiosity got the best of me and figured you all would know the answers to my questions

Don't be, yet. 4 hr car ride on my own, with both boys during nap time. It will either be magical or terrible...

Good luck @WasNotWas‌!

@riansmommie‌ I was freaking out about the transition from 1 to 2 yesterday too. B has been roid-raging/standard toddler melting down all week. Today is the last day of his steroid, hopefully, so I hope I get my sweet guy back and he isn't semi-permanently a terrible two.
Good luck with the new car! How was Rian's gymnastics competition?

Good luck @WasNotWas‌ - fingers crossed for magical.
