Twatwaffle Tuesday

Mizuiro007

I need this vent today. My family has been upset and I've been helping my dad fact check for my grandmother's obituary today after this morning receiving news that my grandmother had a massive stroke. She has late stage Alzheimer's and has been in assisted care. She had a fall, broke several ribs, has internal bleeding and has been in the hospital.

A short time ago we received word that she did not have a stroke. Someone in the hospital mixed up her chart with another. So that person and the hospital is a major twatwaffle for telling us she only has a few days to live, and now that other poor family receiving such grim news.

Wow that's crazy. So sorry to hear about your grandmother! 

I feel like a twatwaffle because I decided to start eating healthy. I. Am. Starving. And I miss pizza and cookies.

DH is a twatwaffle today for playing with DD up until right now when she's usually asleep. I'm the one that suffers the repercussions of DD being off routine... Like how I've been up since 5 bc DD thought it was time to play. 

"But you get to see her more than I do." "Well you can wake up 3x a night with me since she's decided to stop sttn."

Oh my god. That's terrible And i'm sure they'll send you the bill anyway.

USA and Olive's father are both twatwaffles. I'm from Canada where women get one year, dad's get around 6 months mat leave. Here I got 12 weeks and can take another month UNPAID (lol wtf?) and apparently that's a pretty good deal. I'm pissed off about this. I like being back at work but I'm pissed that HUSBAND gets to care for Olive and I don't. Because guess who decided to stop working and stay home? THAT DOUCHE. So not only does he insist we move to the US when we married instead of staying in canada with all the free health care and amazing leave for BOTH parents but then he snaked my leave out from under me by announcing that i can win the bread and he can stay home and be the parent that sends me pics of my kid smiling and doing just fine without me all day. 

So then i get home tonight and she's holding a toy and he's watching tv. EFFING SERIOUSLY? She's doing this amazing new thing and he doesn't even appreciate it. 

I realize this was the same twatwaffle as last week more or less. But it's SO upsetting to me. This twatwaffle has been front and center for a couple of weeks. This twatwaffle is on tour.

Pneumonia is a twatwaffle, poor Jackson goes into coughing fits and it scares the ever living sh#t out of me. I have to go back to work tomorrow and I'm going to worry all day bc SO'S mom is babysitting and she likes to do things her way she also didn't come see him in the hospital. Oh and you CAN worry yourself sick,  so says my sinuses which are on overdrive. Sorry that's more than one tw

My breast are a TW. Due to DS being tongue tied and not having it corrected for awhile because he was in the NICU breastfeeding is only out of comfort for him, my supply is pretty much nonexistent. No big deal I'm okay with him eating formula as long as his belly is full. My girls are TW because all of a sudden they look like deflated balloons. I have useless deflated balloons. My husband and I will finally be reunited March 27th after 6 months apart and I feel insecure about this (not that my husband had ever had a problem with how I look, fat,skinny, tired, or whatever). Sorry this kind of turned into me venting.

Post partum clothes are twatwaffles. Nothing fits, everything irritates my CS scar, and I have nothing to wear to my DS baptism in Mexico on Saturday.

My body is a twatwaffle. I finally had my BC appt today (11 weeks pp wtf right) and had to explain to the nurse alllll of my medical history. Well it all started out with retained placenta, then hemorrhaging, followed by gallbladder removal and that was all in an 8 week period. She felt really bad for me and let me vent for a while lol. After my appt I went to a Mongolian grill for lunch and let's just say not having a gallbladder really sucks. I'm tired of chicken and vegetables for dinner every night!!!!! Also, yesterday was leg day and I can't even pee without being in pain. So my body is a super twat. I knew there was a catch for having such a great pregnancy and easy baby, the recovery blows.

Mizuiro007

@ammnam14 Do they have you on a restricted diet after having your gall bladder out? I had mine out 6 years ago and have never been told to alter my diet because of it.

ammnam14

Yup, they said each meal can only have 3g of fat which is a bit ridiculous. Apparently there's a huge percentage of people that can eat normal after surgery and I'm part of the small percentage that has to change everything. I also went to an army hospital so they might just be full of crap lol.

My sons ped is a twatwaffle for not wanting to get his lip tie clipped and basically telling me I was selfish for requesting the procedure at this age.

Sorry, I know it's not Tuesday anymore, but oh well.

Whatever animal is stuck in our wall is a twatwaffle. At first I thought it was a squirrel or chipmunk that fell between the wall frame from the attic, but now I'm thinking it might be a bird that got in through the dryer vent. My DH says he'll handle it and that he "knows people," but after seeing a youtube video of a bird stuck in a dryer hose and almost knocking it off the dryer and getting into the house, I'm paranoid. And I need to do laundry.

Yes, yes, it's not been Tuesday for a while. I don't even know who/what is a twatwaffle in this situation, but someone is. The borough we're buying our house in requires an inspection of the sewer connection before title can be transferred. The house we're buying, like basically every house in the borough, failed. The sellers hired someone to fix the problem, work was done. Borough came back and put a camera down, found abother problem. So, we were supposed to close this coming Monday, but the sellers couldn't get a contractor to start the work until next Thursday. Now we're not closing til the end of the month. We have a place to live now, and no deadline to move out, but I was really looking forward to moving into our own house, decorating a nursery, etc. It could be worse, but it's just disappointing and frustrating that the borough is so ridiculous about the sewer thing, and takes its own sweet time to inspect the repairs. Seriously, the original work was done 2 weeks ago so if the borough had inspected tem back then we would probably have been able to keep our closing date.

A lady at my church is a twatwaffle. Her and I and another guy were joking about how big DS has gotten and he said "that's mothers milk". Currently I'm in the process of transitioning to full formula for a few reasons and so I made some kind of joke about how I can't keep up with his appetite.  THIS GIRL goes "but you're contributing, right?" In a very condescending way. This decision to stop pumping and nursing has been hell on me. I know she doesn't know that but still.

That is so frustrating. We actually had the same thing happen when we bought our first house and had our first daughter, but it involved some electrical box thing. 

Actually, I wish the borough our first house was in had required a sewer connection inspection when we bought it. If it had, we might still be living in Pennsylvania!

Sometimes I forget what foods have dairy and what foods don't. Right now DD is up with a ridiculous amount of gas. Who ordered a vanilla bean frappucino today like an idiot?? By the time I realized what I was drinking I was half way done. I am a major twatwaffle.

Yup. I ordered something with hollandaise at brunch last week. DD was gassy and spitting up for two days. 

To be fair, I would think that a vanilla bean frapp us just a combo of ice, sugar, and syrup 

I know it's way past Tuesday, but housework is a TW. I can never feel caught up. And if I spend time on it,  I feel guilty for not playing with DD. DH is also kind of a TW for making comments about it. He claims he's not criticizing and that my time with DD takes priority.  He'll get a taste of it when I'm back at work and he takes paternity leave in a week. (My school is NOT a TW for l for giving employees 6 weeks of paternity leave!)

@mhuber223 I feel the same with housework and am a twatwaffle for going to cloth diapering and giving myself even more work.

Hubby got a good taste over the summer. I was so sick I was barely functioning and he was unemployed so he had DS and all the housework. I've gotten a flood of compliments since on how amazing and wonderful I am.

I do live in Pennsylvania. Lol

I am a TW. I dropped my phone in a clean toilet. So far it still works perfectly but I might lose some pictures of Cole. 

Court11152325

@ATolentino89 I dropped my phone in the toilet 2 weeks ago. Phone died, but my phone had just backed up that morning so I wound up getting a new phone with more memory and all the pics were safe. I've never cared so much about losing pictures!!

ATolentino89

@Court11152325 we have been having issues with our wifi at home so the last time I backed up was two weeks ago. I tried to back it up when I got home since its been working but I don't have enough storage. I don't want to delete the back up and risk losing it all so I just sent my mom and husband the pictures from the last two weeks. 
ETA: I literally cried for 5 minutes at the thought of losing pictures of him.

I am a tw...

I decided that I don't need my husband for everything and that I can handle putting the double stroller together. Well I missed one little direction and now it is  unusable. I called Graco and they won't have replacement parts until May! Ugh. 
I'm now on my way to Target to see if they can help me, even though it is not in any way their fault and I'm way past my return date. 

Hopefully they will recognize me because I'm there at least once a week, if not more, and help me out. 

I have never been this annoyed with myself. Ever. 


ETA - Target was nice enough to let me exchange it. Thank you Target!!
