I second this. I'll be smoke free 2 years this summer. I used the e-cigarette to quit, and it worked really well. Anything else I tried before that was a complete fail. With the e-cig you can get different strengths of nicotine cartridges. I started full strength and went down a step every two weeks until I Jo longer needed them. Worked like a charm. I smoked for 10 years and loved it. Now I can't even believe I was a smoker once.
I am currently eating chocolate chips out of the bag, not very weight watchers friendly...
I pretended to have a horrible headache this moring so I didn't have to get up with the baby. Dh was very understanding and even brought me advil and water. He then let me sleep until 8:30. I may start doing this more often since he knows I am prone to headaches...
I don't read the posts marked 'sad'. Baby Zachary's death really messed me up for weeks. I still pray for him, but I just can't read those posts right now, it's just too depressing. Maybe it's a coping mechanism? I know life isn't all sunshine and lolllipops, but I don't want to get myself down like that again.
My confession this week was going to be that I don't read posts marked "sad" or "T&Ps", not because I don't care but more because I do care about others, even if they aren't people I know. I also have some family stuff going on, so I'm afraid of someone posting about a similar situation to mine, which will bring up all the feelings about my family's stuff that I am trying to keep out of my head.
I read them because I can't help myself but the scene with the baby getting killed in Game of Thrones put me into hysterical tears. When I think about something happening to me or Olivia I totally lose it. I also thought when she was 2 months that I couldn't wait for DH and I to go away for a weekend. Now I am dreading it.
That scene of Game of Thrones ripped my heart out. I threw my ipad up in front of my face and yelled at DH to stop the show (we had it recorded). He thought I was joking. I had tears in my eyes and felt sick to my stomach. I had to go up to bed. The next day I considered watching the rest, but apparently it was basically the end of the episode anyway so I just skipped to the next episode.
I love sleeping with LO and I don't want him to go back to his crib because then I might have to return to sleeping with my H and I can't stand H right now... He is mean and has been nikpicking me ever since LO was born. I am over being married and really sad about it.
I can't think of a specific instance but at least once a week I read a post where I assume the person is full of it.
LOL, me too. . . like the baby that says "I love you"
Yeah, but my baby totally does recite Shakespeare.
My baby is competing in the olympics this summer. She's a synchronized swimmer.
I can think of a specific instance, there was a poster earlier this week who said that her baby associated the word "momma" with her. I wanted to reply that V associated the word "mom" with me, but only when we said it in Chinese. The mom competition annoys the crap out of me. I don't remember who the poster was, so I'm not trying to single you out; posts like that happen all the time, it was just the last one that I remember.
My AW post yesterday was not meant to be a p!ssing match or mom competitio. it was just so that everyone could AW what their babes are up to. The people that turned it into a p!ssing match are the ones complaining about it.
I actually thought the post was a cute idea. But by the time I got to it it had gone from "my kid can wave" to "my kid is speaking in full sentences." That's why I got snarky.
I was one of the ones the posted about baby waving. I know he's only mimicking people, especially the really excited ones and it means nothi g more than playing with super excited adults... But it's still really fracking cute.

Tonight's confession: I adore lo but he is with me 24/7.... I'm exhausted, burnt out, and miserable. I lost my job and had to drop out of grad school so housewiving is all I do. I love the chance to be with lo all day but dh doesn't help because I'm home all day. He comes home, wolfs down his dinner, and spends the rest of his night playing with his hobbies. I've always struggled with my self worth and our marriage has had it's lumps but sometimes its all too much. I can seriously see how new moms off themselves. I've never felt so worthless in my life.

It makes me really uneasy that you said this, I hope it's really not that bad or that you talk to someone if it is.

Re: FFFC
I lied to my H that I asked about CIO and STTN at the last pedi appt, but I forgot on purpose because I am not ready.
I want some of these. Gap has some cute bright red cropped pants, but I haven't been able to try them on yet.
Ugh, I wish I could have done this. Instead, DH CAME to said appointment and now thinks we should be CIO.
