    Not quite a vent but a thought...I miss some of the reg WM posters like Luvmygolden & Spenjamins daily postings. LMG-I'll try to remember to post this wkly thread in your absence and if you're reading....feel free to take it back when you're available to bump.

    Another vent-I forgot to bring my lunch and will now have to cut my workout time by 15 min and spend money on a meal today.

  • I did not know the "favorite blanket" was so significant to DS. I am going to scream if I see it again. I washed that blanket 4 times this past weekend! And DS kept asking for it and was looking for it while it was being washed.

    First time: wash off daycare germs

    Second time: peed on it while in the middle of changing pull-up

    Third time: vomited on it.

    Fourth time: peed on it while in the middle of changing a pull-up

  • I love my DH, but cannot understand why he is so adament about being contrary and stubborn.  Finally ate at a restaurant I have been telling him about since we moved to this state...because a random 3rd party told him about it.  He suggested it like I've never said it before (He does this ALL the time...needs a 3rd party to confirm it's a good idea, then he pretends to have never heard of it).

    I told him that LO cannot sleep by himself on the bed now that he's mobile because he can push pillows off , and may roll off. Yesterday morning I woke up to crying...LO had rolled off the bed (DH had gotten up with him earlier and put him on the full bed in his room with pillows around. Ugh! Luckily the bed is not too high off the ground, and he was smiling within a minute...but still!  Why is it so hard to follow simple instructions that really should be common sense.  Why does he need confirmation from somewhere else!  Making me crazy!

  • My SIL was supposed to meet me to come with me for a blood draw for DS.  The appointment was at 9:30.  She got to the meeting place at 9:30.  Really?  Shouldn't you come a few minutes BEFORE the appointment so we have time to get there?

    To the incredibly rude tech at labcorp - I don't know if you've ever tried to hold down a 20 month old who is now having his SECOND arm stuck for a blood draw because they didn't get it right the first time.  I'm holding him as tight and as still as humanly possible.  Also, if I wasn't so busy trying to hold him still and to calm him down at least a little, I would have told you how incredibly inappropriate it was for you to touch the needle entry site with NO GLOVES.  Are you kidding me?  He has CF - your germs are dangerous to him and you work with blood all day anyways - put some gloves on!

    And SIL - seriously?  I appreciate your help and love you dearly most days, but reaching out to take MY child away from me after he's been through two needles, with lots of poking and proding with the needles in, and no blood work, thanks, but no thanks.  As I was already near my breaking point, I'm ever so grateful that DS just turned away from her and snuggled into me.  If he had gone to her, I probably would have bawled my eyes out.

    And the brownie I picked up on the way to work to round out the lunch that I forgot at home, 420 calories?  It's not that good.  They should be ashamed.

    And on more thing, AF, could you please make an appearance?  We're just over 4 weeks since the D&C, it would be nice to know that something is happening the way it's supposed to.

    And, please people, stop asking us if we're going to have another child.  I just don't know how much more of that I can take!

    Can you tell it's been a rough morning?  *sigh*

  • Phone battery died in the middle of the night --> alarm did not go off --> got to work half an hour late when I knew my boss was looking for me "first thing in the morning" for something important, uggg

    Baby monitor battery died in the middle of the night because it wasn't plugged in --> don't know how long my daughter was crying before I came in & got her this morning, but based on how long it took to settle her down, I'm guessing longer than just a few minutes :(

  • Dear customer,

    if you ell me you are ready to move to contract; and I send you a contract, please don't be suprised when I expect to recieve back said contract.

    dear hormones,

    we are in sales, we cannot cry and get depressed just because we didn't get back said contract

     

    Dear DH,

    I know you are frustrated looking for a job, but I promise you - taking a job you don't want/will be fired from /quitting in 6 months to a year is probably not the answer. I love you . just take your time.

    Dear heatwave,

    You just HAD to come when I was 100 months pregnant didn't you????

    On the night you were born, the moon smiled with such wonder that the stars peeked in to see you and the night wind whispered,"life will never be the same" Image and video hosting by TinyPicalt="Lilypie 1st Birthday Pic" width="29" height="20" border="0" /> BabyFetus Ticker
  • Dear Friends,

    Why, oh why, are you having your wedding on a Monday that isn't a holiday at 6:00 PM? 

    Nobody cares that it's your 10th anniversary.  You could have just had a new anniversary.  It's not like it's a venue thing, FFS, it's in your parent's back yard. Most people don't get off work until 5PM or later and traffic around here is awful. While we're, luckily, able to make it, I imagine you will probably end up with a lot of no-shows from people who have stuff come up for work or are just too tired after work and have to work the next morning, as well.

    While we're at it, why are you having an outdoor wedding in July!!??   

    Signed,

    Your tired, pregnant friend who would've appreciated a Saturday wedding with air conditioning.  

    (Especially since DH was off Saturday night and didn't have to be at work 'til 10PM the next day - now we can't much enjoy your wedding because we have to leave by 9PM at the latest for DH to get to work on time.  Yes, he could have taken the night off, but we're about to have a baby, so that's not really feasible.)
