Friday Confessions anyone?

This has been a rough week for many so I thought it would be fun to kick-off Friday with a round of confessions (all flame-free of course)!
My confession: My husband had been gone for work this week and not only did I eat his 2 boxes of girl scout cookies, but I bought 2 more boxes to replace them so he won't know. I have no food control lately!
This discussion has been closed.
Re: Friday Confessions anyone?
hahahahaha how funny!
I have been very lazy this week! I just feel so tired that I have napped almost every day when DS naps. I have a huge mountain of laundry that I am planning on tackling today!
Good start, Allison! I love girl scout cookies.
It has been a sucky week for so many - on board and off. *sigh* I don't have a confession... I am just counting my blessings today and wishing all my friends the best.
I also have Jackie in my thoughts like CRAZY today and sending so many prayers today. Lots of transfer dust to her!
ETA: According to my appt/us yesterday I am measuring 1w1d ahead. Which means I measured 13 weeks yesterday. Or rather, the baby did. And I was thrilled with the fact that I am measured 7lbs lighter at the same time...which for some strange reason makes me want to eat more! I have not been eating all that great to begin with. LOL.
I'm a little annoyed at one of my friends b/c she's annoyed with me for not being more upset and devastated. good lord, woman, let me deal with this in my own way!!!
This is the same one who wasn't speaking to me for a couple weeks after finding out i was pregnant.
Are you freaking serious?! I think I would be more than a little annoyed. Who wants their friend to be MORE devastated?
Mel that's awesome you're in the 2nd trimester now!!!!!
I, too have a weakness for girl scout cookies. When my little cousin was selling them I bought a bunch and froze half of them for later
OMG I am sorry Leanna because she is your friend but that woman is crazy! First she is upset that you were pregnant and now she is upset because you are not devastated?? Who behaves like that!!!
Wow... there are no words. I'm sorry you have to deal with your friend being crappy on top of everything else! As if you need the added stress right now.
Here is my confession: I yelled at my husband for being such a friggin gossip, that he couldn't keep something I told him to himself for FIVE MINUTES. (He is a notorious gossip... worse than a girl, for real). Last night, something was going on with a friend of mine and the second I finished telling him about it over the phone, he called my friend's brother (who he is friends with) to get the scoop.
But secretly, I am really glad he did. Because her brother's story didn't line up with hers, and I am wondering if I believe any of the story at all now. He calls her "the girl who cries wolf" and he was howling in the shower the whole time I was on the phone with her, and though I was trying to be a good friend and listen, I was dying trying to hold back laughter.
L maybe this person is just not meant to be your friend.
hmmm a confession....my sister and her fam who I am very close to just found out that they are definitely moving to Wellington this summer. I am happy for them because this was what they wanted but I am also selfishly super upset. I get to see her for lunch 2-3 times a week and we randonly get the kids to play together after school. Once she lives 40 min away and Aa will be in school 5 days a week next year I will only get to see her on the weekend and it makes me want to cry. I am just bad wih change...I know it will work out and that we will figure out how to get the kids together but I really like having her 7 miles away...and yes I know I am lucky that in this economy that she is not having to move out of state
Hahahahahaha. This is great! L, with friends like that, who needs enemies?
Mel, I would feel the same way about the 7 lbs thing--time to eat more!
Beth, I completely understand about feeling bummed about your sister. I would hate that, too.
And girl scout cookies? Don't get me started. I hide them so my kids don't eat them--I keep them just for me!
Confession? I am hooked on the Nick cartoon Avatar: The Last Airbender, and we record it. Sometimes I offer to Cedric to watch it (he loves it) as a treat, but really I want to watch it myself!
Tania
Leanna- That is horrible.. Please deal with this anyway you want too..
Im bummed and hate this limbo feeling.. But I am also trying to be grateful and blessed for what I do have, which is so much.
Oh and a bit of a brag/confession... I am a serious diet coke addict i mean hook me up to an IV serious. And I have now weaned myself of no-diet coke and have taken a liking to decaf tea.. AND I am finally over the caffeine withdrawls.. YAY no more headaches.
I love it too! I can't wait for the movie to come out!
Sorry no confession for me today. I've had a really difficult week =(
Leanna - Sorry your friend has to pass her 2 cents
Mel - So happy to hear that your measuring ahead of time. That is awesome.
Jackie - As you know I'm cheering for you. 20 min to go! lol
Leanna - That friend sounds like she has issues. I would keep my distance.
Eli - LMAO @ Anthony howling in the shower.
Rach - Good luck with the house hunt.
My confession: I feel a little guilty that DH is overwhelmed with work and the house projects, but he did tell me he wanted to handle everything so I could relax. I've been napping everyday after work while he goes to work on the house. I know I should be packing or doing something productive, but it just feels so good to sleep right now. I've never slept better in my life! So, starting this weekend, I'll get on top of packing since our tentative moving date is the 20th! Yay!
Leanna - That's just awful of your "friend". I'm sorry but I wouldn't wish or be disappointed because a friend of mine didn't feel the amount of heartache that I thought they should.
Beth - Sorry to hear about your sis moving.
Rach - Best of luck house hunting!!!!!
Mine isn't much of a confession. I've now been sick for over a week and I'm sooooooo over it. I've been working my ass off too lately and its getting old but I don't think its going to ligthen up anytime soon. Oh and I'm so happy to be back home. Even if the whole single mom role is exhausting its nice to have "my family" back in our home. Last but not least I'm still on the hunt for a jogging stroller! I can't make my freaking mind up!!!!!
I would really want to TTC #2 within the next year but hubby doesn't seem ready for another one just yet...I haven't even "started" working on Mikey's baby book, haven't printed one picture since I found out I was pregnant almost 2.5 years ago, and I'm still breastfeeding!!!!!! Help me Howard!! (I guess this counts as 4 confessions!!)
Leanna, I'm so sorry that your friend is being such a pain. Rachel, I'm soooo glad the plans to move are panning out. Good luck on your house hunting. Jess, I'm sorry that you've had a rough week. ::hugs::
My confession is that Emma's 4 month doctor appointment coincides with my MIL's birthday. At that point, MIL will already be taking care of her since I will be back at work. MIL has been itching to come with me to one of her pedi appointments but she hasn't yet (so far DH came to her 1 month and 3 month, and my mom came with me to her 2 month). So I know there is really no polite way to get out of bringing MIL with me this time. I am dreading it because MIL is always questioning certain things regarding Emma's health, development, etc., and it annoys me. I just tell her what I think and how I want things to be, even if the pedi has told me something slightly different or suggested alternatives. I don't want MIL to use the excuse that the pedi said XYZ to question my decisions. Anyway, I really would like to wait a few more months for Emma to start solids. Even if my pedi suggests starting them at her 4 month appointment, I'd like to hold off until 5-6 months (this is just my personal opinion/decision based on things I've read and research I've done). Now I'm really scared that pedi is going to recommend starting solids in front of MIL. Then when I tell her that I don't intend to follow pedi's advice, I know she's going to judge me and my decision.
Okay, that was a really stupid confession and more of a vent. But basically, my confession is that I just have issues with MIL getting *TOO* involved with DD's care. I can't be a hypocrite because she is helping us out big time by taking care of her while I work, but at the same time, I don't want it to turn into a situation where she will start to think that she knows better than I do what's good for the baby. I just don't want her to question my decisions or judge what I decide to do.
Dh and I were talking last night about "sacrifice" being the big topic of discussion this week. Several people mentioned it and described their situation. Anyway, he said we can possibly consider me being a SAHM for a few yrs before kids go to school. Now, since we bring in 50/50, I never even considered it a possiblity, but really hope it does come true!
We have 7 embies still growing, and that scares the sh*t out of me! We find out tomorrow how many will freeze. SCARY!
L - your friend isn't being fair to you. Everyone copes with loss differently.

When I was PG, I would stuff like this all the time....I ate an entire gallon of icecream in one week and ran out to replace it so he wouldn't know!!
No confession today...I finally bought my double stroller that I've been obsessing over and am very happy with it. Now, I'm on the hunt for a jogging stroller...let the obsession begin.
i have a confession-
i love the name we chose as a middle name. and i love EVEN MORE because my MIL is slightly pissed we used my mom's name.
You know that woman hasn't even called to find out how we're doing or if we need anything?? She hasn't even held her granddaughter yet!! They showed up at the hospital at like 8 pm the day she was born, I was falling asleep and S had just eaten and after much coaxing had finally fallen asleep. They didn't even say congratulations or anything wh en they walked in. They looked at her and said "what a chunker." wtf.
my 2nd confession is that i'm TERRIFIED of march 23- p goes back to work for 24 hours that day and I don't know how I will handle 2 kids at once for that long. And I don't feel comfortable going out of the hous eewith both of them alone just yet... I think I may have my mom take care of abby that evening :-/ i'm a wuss.
i bought 4 boxes of samoas and told DH that I only bought 3. I hid the other one from him and ate it all in one day LOL (i was pg, in my defense.)
