Open Letter Wednesday

MammaBear81

I've seen this post on a few other boards, so I figured we could try it out here.  If we like it we can keep it up, if not, oh well!  Here's mine!

 

Dear Mother Nature,

Seriously? April is a week away, or did you forget?

Dear DH's Interviewer,

DH has been working really hard to change his career path and finally be able to be in a job that has room for growth.  Could you please see past the dumb desk job he's been stuck at for the last two years and see his potential, it was the result of the sucky economy, your field is where he really wants to be.

Dear DD,

Thank you for waiting for mommy to come home to take your first steps! I know I won't be there for every "first" but this was a good one to save for me, thanks!

Love, Mommy

Dear Work,

Thank you for hiring mean, crappy, know-it-all people for me to work with every day.  It truly makes work a joy, um, I meant nightmare.  Also, as far as my temp replacement goes, I'm glad it has taken a back seat to everything else that is going on.  Just an FYI, I have 42 days left until I'm blowing this pop-stand!  I hope you can get your heads out of your arses and realize training will take more than a few weeks to complete.

Signed, Checked out employee

Dear DH,

You have been really awesome about walking the dogs and being nice to me for the past few months but I am freaking pregnant and you had something to do with that so please rub my back daily and don't do it half as@ed. If you could also learn to cook for me and win the lottery while you are at it so I can stay home I would be greatly appreciate it.

Love, Your sick of being pregnant wife.

Dear Place Where DH Interviewed,

WTH is the matter with you?  Do you have no manners or respect?  DH took a day off of work for an all-day interview and prepared a 30 minute presentation.  After stringing him along for months saying you hadn't make a decision, you don't even have the decency to call and say he didn't get it.  You honestly suck and I hope the person you hired is a tool.

Sincerely,

Wife of the Greatest Employee You Will Never Have

Dear Boss,

I am truly sorry that your boss has not hired anyone like he promised to at the beginning of the year.  I know one of those people was supposed to cover for me while I am on maternity leave and that sucks for you but complaining to me is not going to make me feel bad about maternity leave.  Also, don't tell me that I may be seen as "not a team-player" and a "hardass" if I insist on going by what is in the employee manual regarding leave.  The company wrote the thing and if they don't like it they can shove it.

Sincerely,

See you in the Fall

Dear DD,

Just because you are two doesn't mean you need to take terrible two's to heart. I am sick of you not listening and having to put you in time out all the time. At the moment if you could take a nap, that would be amazing! Other wise i will never get anything done and your daddy will have to wear dirty clothes to work tomorrow.

Love,

your very tired mommy

Dear Property Management Idiots,

 We have mold growing in our living room.  You hired an unlicensed, rude, unqualified individual to repair the leaks.  In DECEMBER!  Yes, I understand that now that the city is requiring permits that it is taking a bit longer.  Your hired employee, however, has never been on our job site for more than 7 hours in one week, including working illegally on Sundays.

We are having a child arrive into our home in 8-12 weeks.  Your hired employee has not begun to repair the damage in our apartment, which when done properly should take 4 to 6 weeks.  Said employee has no certifications or training in mold removal and that makes me very concerned.  

Have no fear, if the mold is proven to have caused any ill effects for my husband, my child or me you will be facing a lawsuit.

 Sincerely,

Angry Momma

Dear Late Night Brain,

Please stop choosing my 2 am bathroom run to suddenly go into overdrive and not allow me back to sleep for over an hour.  Let's wait until morning to continue obsessing about the nursery not being done and all the projects we still need to do.   And please, oh please, STOP getting horrible songs stuck in my head at this time of night.  I feel like I need to be committed to some sort of mental institution when I realize that I'm singing "Never smile at a crocodile" in my head repeatedly while I lay there in the dark.   

Sincerely,

Sleepy Little Me

Dear Girl Scout Cookies,

Please stop making eating an entire sleeve of you in one sitting far too easy to accomplish.

Dear Bestie,

The wedding in 9 days is mine, not yours.  Please stop managing to make everything about you.  I've been dealing with you doing this for the last year and am ready to scream because you are the only thing that will make me turn into "bridezilla with crazy pregnant lady hormones."  Please just help me get through this last stressful stretch, then I promise everything can go back to revolving around you, including my baby shower you are planning. 

 Hey, thanks,

The woman the day is actually about

Dear Nesting Instincts,

LEAVE ME ALONE!!!!!!!!!!! My house is spotless, the laundry is all caught up, and there is only so many times that I can vacuum cat hair off of furniture in one hour before it just becomes pointless! It's turning into spring and he's shedding, get over it! Also, I realize that you are very frustrated about getting the nursery projects done, but there is nothing I can do until DH gets paid next week, so stay off my back until then! Also, under no circumstances will I anal retentively organize my closet and dresser, or alphabetize the contents of my refrigerator!

Sincerely,

Your Reluctant Slave

Dear Husband,

 

When you moved in, you took over the kitchen cleaning responsibilities as well as the yard and the garbage. A month later YOU DECIDED you wanted to cook dinner as well. I appreciate that, but that does not mean you get to give up all your other duties. To date, the kitchen hasn't been cleaned in two weeks (and the last few times it has been cleaned it is b/c I have done it), we get letters from our HOA about our yard and the garbage cans being left out.. which brings me to another point.. if the garbage is going out every week, why are there bags of trash in the garage? Is it b/c you put the bags in the garage and FORGET to put them in the trash can so that they never get taken out?

I love you (I mean I am really, really trying to love you at least) but it is just the two of us right now.. this is about to get a lot harder on us. I will gladly cook for myself OR us every night if that means that the grass gets watered and mowed. 

Also, remember that time you told me I was EXACTLY like my mom.. the alcoholic who told me I was stupid all the time when I was growing up? Remember how when I got upset over that comment you asked me if I was about to start my period? Remember? I do!

Thank you, 

your wife who does your laundry every week and makes sure that the toilets are clean!

You can come to my house. There would be plenty to keep you busy.
