Monday's PityPartyB!tchFest!

willamina28 · January 2011

I'll join today

1. I've been chart stalking IRL friends, knowing that they will probably get KU on the first cycle. Makes me feel like a b*tch but I can't help it.

2. A PG friend this morning was asking me about TTC, like how hard it was for me, blah blah. I thought it was nice. Two seconds later, without even responding to what I said she goes into how she only has x days left until baby. Gee Thanks for your concern.

I hate AF - she showed up yesterday. I really never thought I'd be starting cycle #9. To top that off, we have to take a break for most of February, so unless I O really late this month, looks like cycle #9 will be a bust. I kind of wish I could go home, crawl into bed and sleep until March. Sob story over!

Oh hon, i know how you feel, i'm in the same boat if this cycle is a bust... onto cycle 9.

To top it off 3 and a half months ago, i got 4 months worth of VIP FF in a deal... i have 13 day left... i really thought when i purchased it that i'd HAVE to get pregnant before it ran out... crap a doodle doo... my chances of that are riding on this cycle... the odds aren't on my side...

This is me exactly! Sucks! And I know I am not KU because Sat am my temps took a nose dive. Sucks a lot! Hope yours turns out better!

I am home from work because I had a bad headache and was kind of shaky this morning. Also I decided I needed a day off and this was pretty much the only day I could do it. Feeling a bit guilty, but I have been covering for a co-worker who is on an unplanned medical leave and I wanted a break. Also, we have an ice storm headed this way, so who knows, we may be out tomorrow, which means I will get even more behind on things (although I would not mind another day off). Also, tired of hearing peoples opinions on TTC IRL, I just want to get KU already! Although I know I will then get to hear everyone's opinions on pregnancy and child rearing.

I'm planning my sister's baby shower. I'm having a hard enough time with the fact that she's pregnant by mistake and can't even take care of herself let alone a child and here DH & I are trying to no avail. Her emailing and texting me 30 times a day telling me what she wants me to do for her shower, how she wants things to look and what the cake should be is making me want to rip my hair out and scream. Of course she should have some input but this is getting to be a bit much. I don't want to say anything because I don't want to come off as a jealous horrible big sister so I am sucking it up and smiling...and then venting here.

Squish, sorry to hear that. I went through something similar with my little sister (21 when she got KU and was REALLY not equipped to handle children). At the time we were just getting ready to start TTC and it was frustrating for me. My family was set on "rescuing" her and all I could think was how hard it has been for DH and I to keep putting off trying because we wanted to wait for the right time. It's totally selfish that I felt that way, but only natural and you just have to allow yourself the freedom to feel crappy about it for a little while. I can't imagine how much tougher it would be to find out now that I'm actually TTC, so kudos to you for keeping your cool. Our big sister turn will come soon.

I have 7 left. I though "maybe this will work out perfect, and I'll have just enough days before I get a BFP".... wishful thinking. Oh well.

I'm so sick of my coworkers whining and not following process. It makes for such a mess and these processes are not new!! Put on your big girl/boy panties and deal with it. Whining week after week just makes you sound like a whiny little b!tch! Argh!!

Also, BOO for cycle #10 and 1+ year TTC. I never thought we'd still be at TTC after this long.

(((big hugs))) Me too

I am in a similar boat...except SIL isnt far enough along yet to have a baby shower...but I hope to the heavens that she doesnt ask me to plan it. Because I dont think I have it in me to do so. I've vented about her before, but she is also VERY not equipped to have kids. It was totally by accident by some boyfriend she just got back with, and she can barely afford herself let alone a child. Im interested to see how it all pans out. It just makes me sick to my stomach to know that while we were trying and trying, and had just experienced our miscarriage, she was out being stupid and having unprotected sex. I cant even imagine talking to her or looking at her for a long time...thankfully H feels the same way so we're keeping our distance for now.

So sorry she is being a baby shower diva! She needs to appreciate what's being given to her! And kudos to you for throwing it...you are far stronger than I am!!

Is it Friday yet?

brookelynpaisley · January 2011

I hate people. We put an offer in on another house on Saturday, and come to find out, it's owned by a husband/wife investment LLC. Evidently, they're divorcing and couldn't agree on whether to take our superior offer or an asking-price cash offer, so they decided they'd just pull it from the market. It sounds like the wife is being really immature and trying to screw over her soon-to-be ex-husband, and we're in the middle because we want that house. Last we heard, the wife tried to get more out of the cash offer, and since it was also an investor, they walked. So we're waiting to hear if Mr. and Mrs. Happily Ever After can get their shiit together and agree to sell to us. I just freaking want to know.

lol I usually have my BB in my back pocket and I'm just waiting for the day for it to fall in the toilet when I go to the bathroom. It's fallen out more than once and hit the floor. Hopefully I never hear that *splash!*

Thanks Ladies. It's nice to hear I'm not alone in this. It really was a kick in the imaginary balls when we found out. I'm happy for her that she's having a healthy pregnancy & baby and she'll get to experience motherhood, I'm just upset that she's so immature and doesn't see how life changing this is going to be. When she should be saving her pennies, she's out shopping for things for herself. My parents have provided all her baby furniture and have been stocking up on things she's going to need and she has no shame about it.

My parents tell me I should be excited that I'm going to an Aunt and I am happy for that and excited but I'm sad too. I'm sad it's not me and I know it's selfish to feel that way but lord knows we can't help what we feel. The only reason I agreed to hosting the baby shower is because all of her friends are too immature to know what the hell to do and I don't want it to be a huge embarrassing bust for her. Planning this shower for her is literally taking all the strength I have but I'm determined to get through it because I know it will only make me stronger.

Geez! You'd think they could come together and make a decision if for no other reason then to get the money and part ways. They need to grow up. I hope you get it though! I know you said you really loved it so I'll cross my fingers for you that they can put their grown up panties on and make a decision.

psychgirl33 · January 2011

This is less pity and more b!tchy, but what is it with SILs? Mine is also KU and very immature and irresponsible. Don't get me wrong, I'm way excited to be an aunt and I'm totally happy that she's excited about the baby.

But she's been having my in-laws pay all her bills for over a year because she claims she can't make ends meet. The baby daddy is a loser who lives with her, just finally got a job after not working the last year (unfortunately it's a minimum wage job). He managed to rack up $90,000 in debt while pursuing his B.A. (which he never finished). But they do have a 58-inch flat screen TV and a new truck (that my in-laws make the payment on).

The worst part is that she makes decent money. She makes the same thing MH makes because they work at the same company in the same role (different locations, though). Which means she's just blowing money left and right and then telling our in-laws that she can't make the mortgage payment or her car payment and having them pay it. The house is in their name, so they can't let it go unpaid. They were going to kick her out, but then they found out she was KU. I'm guessing they'll be paying her bills forever now...

ETA: She's a really nice girl and I do really love my SIL, I just really wish she would grow up and take some responsibility!

Man that's a tough one. Sounds like she is getting a free ride and has no qualms about it. I hate that! Especially when everyone else works so hard to pay their bills and provide for their families.

How annoying. We went through this last year. The husband and wife were actually already divorced and had been living in separate parts of the house while trying to sell it (the husband was living in the freaking basement!). Our offer was the first offer they'd gotten in a year of it being on the market, and they still were complete a$$es about it. I hope they get their shiit straightened out soon and that you get this house!

thanks hon. If no BFP this cycle i refuse to buy more on principal that the last 4months of it hasn't helped me get pg, so why bother? Back to basic charting for me...

Ahhhh... It reels us in and spits us out! Lol as I said above, not buying more, that's it. Maybe that will get me a BFP! Cause having unprotected sex in my fertile window doesn't seem to be working! Lol

Oh boy I could really use a b!tchfest right about now:

I have water dripping into my house from two different windows. It's going to take the home insurance co 1-2 days to just get an adjuster assigned to my case, and we are supposed to get another winter storm tonight and tomorrow, UGH FML!

I dropped my iPhone into the toilet on Saturday, and this is the SECOND time I have this in as many months. Learn from my mistakes ladies ... don't leave your phone in your pocket and then hit the loo. It has disaster written all over it.

I have to laugh at this because I've done the same thing. I had my iPhone in back pocket...as I slipped off my pants I heard the *kerthunk* into the toilet. Sigh. On the bright side, I was due for an upgrade, but it still sucks.

"kerthunk* is the EXACT sound it makes too LOL! I took DH's upgrade the first time I did this last month and I don't have an upgrade until May! The good thing is that my old phone (the first one I dropped in the toilet!) seems to have dried out and is working so I just switched my sim card to that one for now. The newer one is in a bag of rice at the moment! Aye aye aye!
