I noticed we didn't have one of these for this week so here we go.

My current B-fest is how much of a glutton my husband is. We had enough cereal left to serve a good 2-3 bowls. DH who is on a "diet" decides AT TEN O' CLOCK AT NIGHT he's going to have cereal. He eats it. All. By himself. Serves himself three times. I was GOING to have cereal for breakfast tomorrow before we leave for Atlanta because I have a feeling he's not going to want to stop for breakfast on the way and I'm not the type to skip breakfast. I get hangry. And now I don't know what I'm going to eat because we're down to barely anything since this week is grocery week. The last time I went to the grocery store I bought TWO bags of cookies. One of which was a family size. They lasted all of 4 days. 4 DAYS Y'ALL. Did I have some? Yes. But I'm not the reason why both bags were gone in 4 days. I know this is stupid but its really grinds my gears when I buy enough food to last for two weeks (we do groceries bi-weekly) and certain things are gone within days. Especially considering ONE OF US is supposed to be on a diet.

So then, walking around downtown, she points to one of the more expensive restaurants in the city and asks since she treated us to dinner (because obviously it still burns her that she paid), would we treat her and her BF to dinner there. Granted, I really don't think she knows how expensive it is, but she just has an incredible intuition for being annoying. She really just thinks we don't take her out as much as a doting son should.
I mean shoot we are having babies. Ita not a new thing.
Then again, DH's parents would much prefer to go out to restaurants, but a) they always pay and b) after this baby comes + when BIL & SIL start to have babies, I think we're all going to be about done with family dinners at actual restaurants for awhile.

All morning long, I'm like "Don't take it out on DH. Don't take it out on DH. Don't take it out on DH." And then I text him, "Didn't realize last night's dinner was going to be a quid pro quo." Gah, couldn't help myself.

And I am a person who has been super annoyed by the precedent that other women have set by simply "not returning" after maternity leave. That precedent has made it harder for women of childbearing age to find employment because employers look at their past experience with women not returning and in turn discretely discriminate against women in hiring and promotions, especially when the employers have spent a lot of money training and providing benefits for young female employees for the women in turn to stay home after kids. Employers, large and small, know that they have a greater risk of losing their investment in their employees when they hire women. It is a real risk and economic loss. I hate that precedent and struggle from both the female employee's and the employer's perspectives. But it is not entirely the fault of either side when you understand the employment laws and cultural norms silently manipulating them.
I am not sure how to respect women's choice to stay at home and provide fair employment opportunities to women who continue to work, but I share your frustration.
