Open Letter Wednesday!

Thoughts, vents, confessions, let's hear them!
Dear Old Navy,
Why was your website down ALL DAY yesterday. I'm finally breaking down to buy maternity clothes, and because your site was busted I'm not motivated anymore. I'm sure you will eventually get my business because you are the most affordable, but for future reference it's not a good idea to piss of a pregnant women with a type A personality.

Dear Daylight Savings time,
I love you! Now when I get home I can serve dinner and take the kids OUTSIDE to play because it's still light out! I wish you could stick around all year

Dear Co-Irker,
I know you think you have found the man of your dreams, but he really is a nightmare. You should not B&M about your fiance every single day and still plan to marry him. Things will NOT get better. I wish you would think more of yourself. You deserve better than him. He is a d0uche with a capital D!
Signed, Concerned co-worker to the East
Dear DH,
Thanks for starting my morning off a great note. It was so sweet of you to lay your head on my stomach to see if the baby would "talk" to you. When you do sweet things like that, it makes me love you more than ever. I know you are going to be a great dad and I am so glad we're in this together.
Love, Your forever loving you more wife
Dear DS,
You are AMAZING! At 2 years old you put your dishes in the dishwasher when dinner was over and put your wet diaper in the washer because it was time for a change. Granted you just laid the dishes on top of the racks and the diaper needed to go in the pail instead of the washer but that's not important. You were really cute and a REALLY good helper. I know you're gonna be a great big brother.
Love,
A very proud Mama!
Dear DH,
You are driving me up the wall! PLEASE go back to work and stop getting sick. I know you can't help it and I love you but I can't take you at home anymore. You have got to go. I need some time for myself and I can only get that during nap time while you are at work. So please go back to work so we can stop fighting. Thank you!
Sincerely,
You're exhausted, moody, nearing the end of her pregnancy wife.
Dear Other Woman,
I hope you are happy with my best friend's husband. You deserve each other. It was very classy of you to wait until the day AFTER the divorce was finalized to publicly announce your love on fb. Love the cutesy couple profile photo that was taken of the two of you WHILE HE WAS MARRIED. It's not your fault that his wife just didn't understand him. That his father was never around and now he's confused. I'm quite sure these will be very comforting things for you both to tell his 5 year old DS and 3 year old DS when they are old enough. Provided you are still around. What am I saying, of course you'll still be around. It's true love, right?
Best Wishes,
Keeper of the Karma
Dear Bachelors Degree,

Dear Head Cold,
You Suck!
Sincerely,
Your miserable, cranky, host
Dear New Employee,
Please stop bothering me about your computer access. I told you when you asked me to request it for you that it takes up to a week to hear back. I also told you that I will bring your the information when I get it.
Sincerely,
The lady who is ready for maternity leave
Dear DH,
While you try to help me out in some ways, like moving furniture around so we can get new carpet, going to the store with me so I don't have to lug the bags around and pumping my gas for me, I would really appreciate some more help around the house. For instance last night when you got home and I had not even let the dogs out because my back hurt and I was tired. Even though I complained to you about this and made you dinner, you still went to your playstation right after dinner instead of helping me clean up. What happened to when we use to take turns doing the dishes and we would do them together?
Sincerely,
Your desperate wife
Dear boss,
It has been so nice having you out of the office this week! Would you consider a long-term vacay until I go on maternity leave? xoxo
Best,
Your lackey
Dear co-worker,
You are not beyonce nor do you sound close to her or any other good singer. Please stop singing it sounds like nails on a chalk board, so i can enjoy this cold, miserable, wet day today.

Dear DH,
Thanks for making me laugh this morning when you woke up and placed your hands on my belly and in the most sincere ministerial voice said "I dedicate this baby... to Fisher Price." and then looked at me and grinned and said "I had the weirdest dream last night." What would I do without your completely goofy sense of humor?
Signed, Your exhausted wife that is now finding your goofy humor funny
Dear cable company,
We called to cancel you because you are too expensive and we don't watch you enough to justify the cost anymore... We can get Netflix and the basic local channels and are perfectly fine paying the $15 a month opposed to your $70... Quit blowing up our phones telling us how sad you are that you lost our business (5 calls in one day? really?). Being persistent is annoying, not charming. When you can beat $15 a month, then feel free to call again, until then, BUG OFF!
Your used to be loyal, now annoyed, EX customer.
Dear Strep Throat,
Just go away. You hurt. You bring me multiple fevers, uncontrollable chills, and lots of pain. Me and baby are starving on this liquid diet I have had to have in the last two days. I hope today you can at least stop with the fevers.
Thanks, me & Xander.
Dear DH's employer,
Please give the poor guy a day off or a couple of hours at least. Working through the entire weekend is exhausting and deserves some time off to catch up on sleep.

Dear Saturday,
Please come quickly. I am so excited for my last shower! I can't wait to spend time with husband and see friends and family.
Signed, Excited PG lady
Ooooh I have another!
Dear Physicians that I work with,
I realize today is doctor's day, but it is very rude and arrogant of you, that are here, to keep asking what we are doing for you today to celebrate. We have plans for you but not until a couple weeks from now since most of you have opted to take the week off for spring break. I hope you are enjoying your time on the beach. I apologize that we don't have anything planned for you today, it was not my decision by the big boss' decision.
Sincerely,
The annoyed assistant who just does what the boss tells her to do
Dear old lady,
Please take the ass you left behind when you stole my cute, perky pre-pregnancy ass. I don't recognize it and I'd like mine back ASAP.

Dear DH,
I realize that you're very stressed at work and have tried to accommodate you for the past few weeks. I've even bit my tongue about the fact that all of the projects you've promised to help me with never get done because everyone else's projects seem to take priority. I'm at a breaking point, though. I'm exhausted and can't keep up with working full-time, taking care of our house and working part-time for you too. I need help, not you yelling at me when I break down over how stressed and overwhelmed I am with handling everything baby and helping you run a business, plus keeping up with our normal lives. Maybe next time, a hug and some understanding from you (and you actually helping me) would be a better approach?
Love,
Overwhelmed & Still Teary Today

Dear Co-irker,
Please stop ciphering off my work to other people, i understand that i am about to leave the work force for a 6 month "break" as you like to put it, however i am not an invalid and can continue in my role for the next 8 weeks as per usual. Please also note that by removing my duties from me this early i am left with nothing to do but twiddle my thumbs and post on the bump.
Regards,
