  • Kind of a 2 in 1...

    Today is my last day at this job and Monday I will be going to my old position (making less but at least I will like it more). 1st confession: While I am happy my old job took me back, I am annoyed because I am replacing a girl who is KU with twins and she will be working with me very closely for the next month before she goes on leave. No, she isn't IF, she is a big ol' fertile that got lucky with twins and complains about her pregnancy all the time. It will take all my strength not to cry each day on the way to and from work...

    Well, my boss keeps telling me that she will miss me and she is sorry it didn't work out blah blah blah. A few weeks ago I asked if this past Wednesday could be my last day because my new job has me live on campus and I have a lot to do to get us moved. She said no. No good reason, just no. I thought well, maybe she is planning a goodbye breakfast or lunch for me today. Afterall, she did that for a student worker who left us, and they did a lunch for a secretary who was here for all of 7 weeks. Yeah, no breakfast and almost no one is in today and boss has a meetings all throughout the day. I don't think there will be anything. I mean...I didn't expect it, I really don't like it here, but I have worked my a*s off for these people and they owe me...big time. It just stengthens my feelings of happiness to be GTFO. Still hurts my feelings though.

    Your current boss sounds like a complete beyotch.  She is always doing insensitive things to you!  And I'm sorry about the PG lady.

    Me - a few weeks ago I said that I was going to try not drinking for 30 days.  While I have cut it down significantly, I did not follow through with my plan.  Now that I'm in my FET I'm using that as my reason to cut WAY down, like to zero (maybe).  I guess my confession is that I failed.

    Thanks hun. And I can totally relate to yours too. The plan was for me to not drink anything starting this week. Well, I am going to pre-confess that this weekend I will be drinking. Possibly a lot. LOL, I figure I am only on estrace so what the heck, no biggie.

  • My confession is I do not have to work Sunday (one of the three days a year Target is closed), but I have to work Monday 5am-1:30pm...but the bosses know I'm in the middle of a treatment cycle and I told them I'd let them know when my IUI is because I alway take that day off work and let them know 24 hours ahead of time so they have time to try and find someone to take my shift.  

    No matter what day I have the IUI, I am thinking of lying and telling them it's Monday so I can not work.  I really hate ad set up day and having to start at 5am, and this is a good excuse to get out of it.  I mean screw it, I got the promotion already and it's a reasonable excuse, why not take advantage?

    Ouch - poorly run offices can suck so much! I spent 3 years in one.

    For me - I am not celebrating good friday or easter by going to church with my mother for the first time in my whole life. She is devestated, but honestly, I just couldn't do it this year and I don't care. I told her that if the worst she is facing is not celebrating easter with her daughter for 1 year, that is a hell of lot better than what I am facing which is the potential of a life without children ever so she should get over it. Really not the way I talk to my mother ever, but I think PMS and bitterness just got the better of me.

    Absolutely agreed! I would! Plus, one more day to lie around and relax if it is on Sunday can't hurt!

  • I am really, really pissed off at DH this morning for several reasons:

    1) he forgot to lock the front door again when we went to bed (2 nights in a row)

    2) he forgot to set the house alarm again

    I am just fed up with this "oops" reactions. Why don't we just invite some robbers in to our home and give them what they want?Your idea- of having a handgun will really solve the problem too (sarcasm here).

    3) Then he told me this morning- "I am going OOT the end of this month to look at some "claims." Uh, ok buddy. Well, you are going  OOT, you will miss:

    our local neighborhood association grand opening of a park that I told you about oh, half a dozen times. BTW-I am on the board.

    You will also miss my race that I asked you to drive me to.

    And finally you will miss my family's combined birthday dinner that I also told you about.

    When I get pissed off at him, I shut down. I know that is not good but I need time to calm down and formulate how I want to talk to him. It is just frustrating that he doesn't think ahead and then just tells me these things. When I have things I want to do, I ask: "do you we have anything going on this date?" No? Ok, well I plan to do this.

    Oh and he constantly complains that he wants to work our front yard...well if you happen to be gone almost every weekend-it is tough. I can only do some much.

     ok, this is more of a vent than a confession. Sorry.

    Any ideas or help would be appreciated.

  • I have had to control my pissy-ness with DH this week. Sh!ts me up the wall that:

    1. he gets a call from an aunt to have Easter bruch with the extended family in Sunday. We talk about it, he does not ask me if I want to go, but speaks to his mother and brother and then states we are going - Hello, do I get a say in this at all

    2. We are looking at buying an investment house, currently owned by his mother and his brother (BIL) is the realtor. BIL screwed up our house purchase and cost us $ and time as he is incompetent in my book and now knowing we are looking to buy it at a fair value, not to rip MIL off, goes out and finds other possible buyers just to raise the selling price. Is he that stupid, has he forgotten the reason why you sell to family to guarantee a sale and therefore a commission, and do the best for all? How DH wants him to earn a commission for buying and selling and as BIL screwed us over again by gettting a higher value we have to pay more $$ than we are wanting to pay. I work in a professional field and work with people that know what they are doing. BIL clearly is a hack at this and makes me so crazy with the flipping and flopping with advice and plan forward. Just kills me.

    I am clearly emotional this week and have held these emotions all in this week. I just need some sleep and to get over the bloat of the ER.

     

    Multiple ectopics, 2 failed IVF's
    IVF #1: Did not get to ET, embies all failed PGD (major chromosomal defects)
    IVF #2: We have 2 chromosomally perfect embies as a result of PGD (Boy/Girl) 1 failed the thaw (Girl) Transferred 1, yet ended as a c/p
    Thought it was the end of our TTC Journey 6/20/2012
    SHOCK BFP 9/28/2012: IT'S A BOY! and everything is normal !!!!!!

    I would be p!ssed, too.  But remember, like the show Whitney when she said men like when you don't talk and shut down when you're mad, so you should talk a whole lot.  I would b!tch at him and make him kiss your a$$ til he left and then continue it when he got back!   

    I will have to remember that for future things he p!sses me off. When I get p!ssed, I say some mean things that well, I do not mean. 

    Overall, we have good communication, it is just when these hiccups happen...especially at 7 am when I am trying to get out the door to go to work.

    Oh and I was so ticked off, I forgot my lunch today. Tongue Tied
