Go.

* I bought earring from kohls to wear for M's party. I wore them, they were too big & kept scratching her. I returned them. I wiped them with alcohol, but ick. Now I won't buy anymore earrings from there in case someone did the same thing.

* I'm starting to feel trapped by my life. I would never leave, but I'm unhappy and I don't know how to fix it. I'm hoping once my synthroid is regulated I can feel happy again.

* Even though I have been doing most of the things my rabbi suggested to incorporate religion into my life, I find that my faith is even further from me. I just can't grasp how I'm supposed to have faith when I can't ever seem to catch a break. My concrete thinking is messing with my abstract thinking. It's like an inner war with myself.

Crazy, I will now always remember you as the woman who wreaks havoc on Kohl's jewelry.

-I'm not good at these so I never post, but I do enjoy them when I actually get a chance to read them.

-I was replying to a post this morning with my LO sitting at my feet playing, and she fell backward and hit her head on the floor. I usually hold onto her but not this time. Made me think of those snarkers who like to say "what are you doing on the boards all day neglecting your children." Sigh.

i feel ya on the synthroid, crazy. i always feel off when mine is out of whack. i hope your's gets back to normal soon! do you mind my asking if you have hypo- or hyperthyroidism?

i also think that everyone feels the same way about faith from time to time. it's hard to reconcile what you can't see with things that are going on in life. (((hugs)))

*dd is about to get her first tooth!! when i felt in her mouth this morning i could feel the outline of a tooth but it wasn't sharp yet, so it's not quite through. i'm so excited! ds didn't get his first tooth until 15 months and i was terrified he would never have teeth. hooray for a normal teether!

*dh is leaving a week from today and that makes me sad. last night he went to bed before i do and i just sat in the empty living room for awhile and wondered what i was going to do when it's just me every night (after the kids go to bed).

*today is a half day of school and i'm SO glad.

*my students don't give a rats a** that i'm leaving. dang punks!

*tomorrow i'm going shopping with some dear friends and even though i don't have very much money to spend i'm really glad i get to spend time with them. *sigh* i'm going to miss them when we're gone.

I'm hypo. So when mine's out of whack I really feel it.

* I'm on the internet when I really should be finishing a report that's due by 1pm today. I'm such a procrastinator - I swear it's an illness.

* DH is sick and I haven't done anything for him, really, except let him sleep and take DS to daycare (he usually does drop-off). I'm more worried about not catching it or letting A catch it.

* I'm feeling guilty about not giving the cats any attention. They used to be our little furbabies, but I feel like I don't have time to love them up properly when I'm working FT, taking care of a baby, and trying to get house things done. Makes me feel like such a jerk.

I want to kick almost all my coworkers just b/c they annoy the he!! out of me and I've only been back a week.

I really need to find something part time but feel a little guilty b/c then most of the financial burden falls on dh and he is already talking about switching construction companies just to work OT...I don't want him to miss out on M&A's baby months just b/c I am greedy and want more time with them for myself...*sigh*

My sister is pi$$ing me off...she couldn't be bothered to stop by my house last night to see my other sister who is in town for less than 24 hours just to do dinner with the fam for her birthday...she practically had to drive right by on her way home from work to see her dog...just not a good time...

PITA sister's gf texted my sister that came in from NY that she needed to plan her trips further ahead...seriously...???? DH and I had no problem with fitting in a quick visit and we have 2 babies, 2 cats and 2 full time jobs!! I am so annoyed with her....I think I'd like to kick her too....

*I'm actually looking forward to going back to work, sort of. I'm sad that I won't be with Nora all day, but I'm also looking forward to getting back to a routine, seeing my work friends, and having some adult conversation. Makes me feel like a bad mommy that I don't want to stay home with her

*A good friend of mine has become my "frenemy" as MH calls it. We have babies the same age and everytime we talk I feel like she is trying to one up me. I have actually started to wish that her baby would stop sttn b/c I'm really tired of hearing about how wonderful and perfect her LO is! I want ot hear something real like she is fussy or won't sleep in her crib or SOMETHING. She can't possibly be perfect.

Me too! My poor cat gets hardly any attention anymore. I feel for him.

i felt the same way when i went back to work after ds was born. he was 4 months old and i was ready for a little "me time" by then, even if it was at work. i was a much better mom for having been out of the house everyday. don't feel bad! you're a great mom!

I wish all the private board girls would come back here - not putting them down or anything, I just miss the whole PAL "family" feeling since most of us traveled through PL-TTCAL-SAL-PAL together.

I think we have the same friend.. except my friends baby is a bit older than mine but she will NEVER EVER say anything except how perfect her kid is and me and my other friends CONSTANTLY feel like we are being judged by her..

lkstor · September 2009

I didn't get my husband anything for our anniversary today. Nothing. Not even a card. Does sex count? Otherwise I'm a bad wife. Particularly true since I don't feel guilty. He said he was going to get me this necklace as a push present... So somehow I feel like we're even???
