Dear DH - I love you, I really do. And I appreciate you helping around the house. BUT, washing my down comforter was a REALLY BAD IDEA....
Dear co-irker - I really have never met someone so annoying in my life. I know I sound like an evil biotch, but you just are. I don't want to hear a 20 minute story about all your various drs appts the minute I walk in the door. I'm sorry, but I just don't care. Maybe if this were a once and a while type deal, I wouldn't mind listening, but since you are the biggest hypochondriac I have ever met, it's just too much.
Dear house - can you just find a way to clean and decorate and fix yourself? That would be wonderful!
Dear co-irker (yep, you guessed it, same one mentioned above) - I know I'm "in charge" since our real boss is out, but for the love of god, you do not need to come in to my office every 5 minutes to ask a stupid question. You have a brain, and you happen to be extremely competent (although annoying). PLEASE STOP THE INSANITY!!!!
I know your excited about going with us when we order furniture this weekend, but can you please refrain from the high pitched squealing that seems to occur when you think something is cute or adorable? It drives me (and others) crazy. And no, we still aren't telling you when the big u/s is.
Dear DH,
I know you mean well, and I truly appreciate all the extra attention you are showing me while I'm pregnant, but please don't forget that pregnant does not equal stupid. I'm capable of knowing what I can and can't eat and what I'm allowed to do. Yes, I promise going to a baseball game is safe.
Please go away. There is no need for you to make it known that you are hangin around every day after every meal.
Dear stupid male cousin:
You really hurt my feeling on Sunday when you said you thought it would be funny if I got as big as a house. I am so sorry that I have always tried to take care of myself and exercise. If you can't say something nice then keep your trap shut!!!

Tee Hee Hee! Your H sounds like mine! He doesn't want me to go to the Indy race at Barber next month
Stop walking away from me before I am done asking you questions! Just because I am your daughter and you know I am capable does not mean I know what I am doing. If you would take 5 minutes and devote me your full attention, I wouldn't have to continue bothering you with more questions!
Dear cold(as in the sniffle kind not weather) please don't stick around long...it's hard taking care of a baby all day when all you really want to do is sleep and you can't take the medicine because it makes you drowsy as crap. Thanks!
Dear MIL...there are so many things I want to say to you but I am too nice to...so I'll just say PLEASE STOP!
Dear Animals... Thank you for resting so peacefully this morning instead of acting like obnoxious fools - please continue this behavior when daddy gets home
Dear Avery - Walk please!!!! - mommy loves you dearly but you are 17 months old now. you are a big girl and you have strong little legs that you should be using
Dear Mary Poppins - can you please bring your magic snapping fingers and get my house in order for me???
I would just like to point out that you didn't actually clean the kitchen if you didn't also sweep the floor and mop if necessary. You just washed dishes. Same for the bathroom(s). If the toilet, tub, and sink are done but the floor looks like the Kentucky derby was held there, the bathroom isn't clean.

And I thought it was just my DH who did stuff like this!
Dear Parents of Prospective Students, I am sorry our College isn't giving your student a "full ride" to come here, but guess what, no one else is either. And I am sorry that you aren't receiving more in financial aid because you make nearly $100K a year. If you haven't set money aside for your kids to go to college making that kind of money, then I have no sympathy. And yes, you will have to take out student loans. I did, and so has nearly everyone else who has been through here in the last 180 years. You are no different. Apparently your kid?s college was not on your thoughts when you were buying your too large house and too expensive cars and everything else under the sun. I am sorry that society has allowed you to feel entitled to have everything handed to you, but we will not. You can not expect to pay less for a private college education than you are paying for their high school education. I think you may have your priorities out of place.
Dear Prospective Student, I am sorry your parents are cheap and have not prepared for the expenses incurred by your education, even though the obviously could have handled things for you. I am sorry that because of their selfish needs or desires they have not prepared you financial to handle college and have put in your mind that because you have decent GPA and middle-range ACT score, you should be able to get a ?full ride? to the college of your choice because you are just that special. I am sorry they have given you a twisted world view in which people will always cater to your wants and needs without regard for anything else. I suggest you take a step into reality and away from mommy and daddy and realize that you are not always going to get your way. And, oh my goodness,? you may actually have to work for something to earn it. Best of luck in your college career!
Dear Judgemental Mommies, Stop giving me the side eye when I feed my baby with a bottle in public. The worst of you are the ones who say something. You don't know what's in that bottle, and even if you do, did you stop to think for one second about situations that might prevent a Mommy from BFing...like, oh say, adoption? Love, Just another Mommy trying to do the very best for her baby just like you -- can't we all get along?
Dear Tax Refund, Please get in my bank account on Friday! Love, A Taxpayer

This times 100!! I am so tired of answering questions and receiving accusing looks when I bottle feed in public about why I FF instead of BF...really it is a choice, and I have my reasons and I am trying to be the best mommy I know how to be. Thank you!

Dear students, can you please hold it together and behave for 4 more days...it's almost spring break!
