    Mine is that I think I'm a lot better than my coworkers. They all have to send me articles to edit, and half of them cannot put a complete sentence together. Seriously... a third grader could write better. Example: "Accompany us was Florida newest Watermelon Queen Ms.Christine ______." WTF. It pisses me off that they make so much more money than me while I have to sit here and correct their work on a daily basis.

    Feels like that in my office too sometimes.

    My confession is that I don't own one pair of shoes for LO.

    You two are funny this morning!

    Mine is that I'm not getting DH the gift he wanted for Father's Day. I can't stand him playing all those F*^@#$*%* golf games on the XBox all the time! So I plan on getting him something to go play golf outside the house where I don't have to see it or hear about it.

    Subsequently, since that gift is more expensive, I'm also going to get a more expensive Mother's Day gift.

    Being a SAHM has made me very lazy (clothes wise). I live in gym shorts/yoga pants and t shirts. I can't make sense of putting real clothes on just to be covered in spit up, drool and now baby food. 

    This wouldn't be bad but now I like wearing t shirts out inn public all the time. Sometimes I miss real clothes.

    My neither. I don't think a baby needs shoes unless they are walking, though.

    LOL love it!  My coworkers are all idiots as well!! 

    Mine is that DH really wants to buy a camper this summer, but I keep telling him we can't until we pay of a couple small things, or one of our vehicles.  I always tell him I'll be mad if he buys one.  Secretly though, I really hope he finds a great deal somewhere and we can get one right away, even though it would be slightly irresponsible to buy one right now....

    I felt the same way during maternity leave. I think if I was a SAHM, Id be in my pajamas all day, every day. And I have been wearing tshirts and jeans every weekend out in public. I don't even have motivation to dress decently anymore.

    I know I would probably stay in my pajamas all day too. They are comfortable and I'm not leaving the house, so who cares?

    I also am in a funk with my clothes. My work button up shirts don't fit thanks to these milk filled boobs and I really don't feel like buying anything new. I'd rather spend that money on LO.

    When I was on maternity leave I lived in yoga pants and camis... I would actually get pissed off when I had to wear real clothes!

    Now that I'm back at work, I have a huge pile of clothes started on my floor of my closet. I don't fit into anything anymore, so if it's too small when I try it on, it goes on the ground. My husband keeps asking me when I'm going to pick it up... I just told him it's not good for my self esteem to have a closet full of clothes that don't fit me, so they're staying on the ground until I lose the weight!

    This is a why I quit my job!!! And yes, I am currently sitting at home in my pjs. I slept until 9. And LO is still in daycare - go ahead judge me, but we paid up until May, so he's going half days so I get some me time!

    I only have 1 pair of shoes that she wore for Easter.  She won't be wearing shoes until she can walk.  There are studies that show if the shoe is too rigid it will hurt their feet and they will refuse to walk with them on.  Also, I think they are pointless. 

    My confession: I am annoyed at DH because he goes to band on Thursday nights.  He gave me the opportunity to tell him no, but I couldn't do it.

    I don't feel guilty for wearing pajamas up until 3pm some days. I do eventually have to get dressed or I feel totally useless. I've never felt bad about wearing jeans and t-shirts in public even pre-pregnancy.

    My FFFC is that I plan on raising DD a vegetarian in our home. I have been a veg for over 8 years, DH for 25 years. The thought of cooking meat makes me wanna hurl. She is free to eat meat at my mom and dad's, at friends' houses, at school, wherever. I just won't make it. I don't have anything against meat eaters at all. Sometimes I miss meat, but then I remember where it comes from and that quickly goes away.

    I just figured out yesterday that Mitt Romney is a presidential candidate; I have no idea who the other one is. 

     And I do not care.

    I can't stand Teen Mom/Teen Mom 2. I don't understand how anyone can say that that these shows DON'T glamorize teen pregnancy...The reality is that they're living in apartments that cost more than my house payment, wear designer clothes, carry $500 handbags and drive newer vehicles than my husband who is a mechanical engineer........ It really aggravates me!!

    I don't have any shoes for DS either. I finally got him a summer hat last week.

    I cannot put down Fifty Shade of Grey. I contemplated calling in sick so I could finish reading it today. Myabe not the best written book but it is definetly lures you in.

    I am starting a new job in 2 weeks, my motivation level at my current position is diminishing quickly.

    Hey redcamaro, has your DH ever played Bocce ball? It's not a one person thing, but it's outside and fun.

    Jeans and a shirt (granted usually not just baggy t-shirt) have always been real clothes to me.

    I'm so infuriated with my DH that I may just not talk to him for a few days. Just because.

    My older two kids are dirving me up a wall. I cannot fathom how at 11 and 12 it is almost impossible to get them to do their chores. It's the first thing they do when they get home, you would think that would motivate them so that they could do something fun afterwards. Instead they will, for example, stand at the sink scratching a hole through a bar of soap for four hours rather than do the 20 minutes worth of dishes. I'm pretty sure I have reason to be frustrated, but I still feel bad about it.

    I think I might be the reason that Kaeldra isn't sitting up yet. I don't think I've been letting her sit without being strongly supported enough for her to figure it out.

    My mom offered to watch DD and LO for a few hours yesterday so I can rest. LO refuses a bottle, so my max time is 3 hours. She told me to go home and sleep. I drove to the nearest Chevy's and had 2 margaritas.

    I have to add another................. this is more of a FFFC.....

     

    DH says we can't get a pet for Lilly........little does he know that I'm going to the humane society next week to adopt a kitten.... He doesn't get to make ALL of the rules.

    Ditto. I believe it's all a sham anyway. Also, I do believe jeans and a t-shirt are real clothes. As long as there are no stains/holes/etc...it is presentable enough for the public.  

    My FFFC: I cried and cried for like a week when I found out my BIL and SIL were having a baby. Why?

    We were going to wait until after confirmation of our pregnancy by the doctor's office to announce our pregnancy to our families (neither knew we were trying so it was going to be a great surprise). We were about 10 weeks along at this point. SIL text me to announce they were having a third baby in September. Our baby was due in November. I felt like my news wasn't going to be special to my husband's family anymore because DS is our first and he was just going to be another baby.

    Also, SIL already compares her two older children to each other and all of her friends' children and I didn't want her comparing my child to hers.

    And I hate to say it about a child, but her oldest daughter is a little spoiled rotten b!itch...I guess that was more of a vent!

    I'm curious as well as to what you meant by the "other" candidate. Please explain.

    Sort of goes along with "Fifty Shades of Grey" comment from the other day, but I think the Twilight series is completely idiotic.

    This is a little off, and not a FFFC at all, but I recently heard the idea of using the write in vote to put 'none of the above'. I really like the idea.

    Why wouldn't you just not vote? Save yourself the two hour wait time & stay home if you don't believe either candidate is worthy of your vote! (It sends the same message.)

    Ah, no. Looks like you would need a large space to play, which we don't have currently. But thanks for the tip! Big Smile

    Actually if people did this, then there would be no majority and they would have to start over. That's the idea anyway.
