LuckyDad:
The truth is, I'm at the point where I really need to move on. I'm frustrated because I know if I can find another job willing to make me an offer, there is a 90% chance my current company will match it. But I also know my current company won't match it unless I have an offer. It feels very messed up. I like my supervisor, but I'm frustrated she's not the type to really fight tooth and nail for promotions for her people. She's a very pleasant person which is great in terms of the way she manages, but not so good when it comes to her battling for resources.

Related note:

DH has a good job; it's stable, it's interesting, it has great benefits, and he likes it. I do wish, though, he would even have an opportunity to move up. His job changed title, which was technically called a promotion with a slight raise. He will soon hit a ceiling for pay, which is fine, but I really feel he has more in him than this job provides. He's wicked smart, so I kind of feel his intelligence could be further challenged KWIM?

I signed up at the gym a few weeks ago. My kid will not stay in the gym daycare. I've gone 2 whole times and that was only because someone else was watching him. I'm not renewing for the month of May.
I plan to get a DVD and try to exercise at home.
That's what's holding me back from joining a gym (well, that and I can't afford $45/month + daycare fees though I'd make it work if I was really motivated). DS still sometimes doesn't like going to the church nursery and he's been going there for 2 years now. I don't think he'd handle the gym one well, though who knows.
A couple weeks ago Robin recommended Jackie Warner DVDs and I bought a couple - they're good 30 minute workouts. And the Jillian ones are pretty good.

I think I'm going to get the 30 day shred. I figure since it's only a 20 minute work out I can probably fit that in at home. I hope.

Confession: I'm butt hurt that only mbenit has recognized my boob related confession. Which is silly. If you all could see them, you'd be impressed.

I don't think they've looked this nice since before I was knocked up.

I am jealous of your impressive boobage. I haven't had a well-fitting bra in years.

I love weddings. I have enjoyed most of the times that I was a bridesmaid/maid of honor as well.
I am super curious to know the names of the LO's that are disliked. That didn't come out right, but you know what I mean.

I'll share his name - Gareth. I think the G in combination with the th sound makes it so ugly. No offence to anyone!

Get fitted and get one. I thought my nice boobs were long gone. I keep checking out my own boobs.

I'm not gonna lie, I was more surprised you put bras on before washing them. Then I thought maybe I'm the weird one for washing all lingerie before wear. So there's that.

I may need a picture of the cleavage to know whether I'm impressed, though. What kind of bras are they?

::cups ReeseFox's bewbs::

There's a well-fitting bra for ya!

But seriously, a good bra means the whole world! Clothes fit better, you stand a little taller, and who doesn't like their girls in an upright position?

People wash bras before wearing them?
They're Nordstrom.

I do because I buy them in the store and I know sometimes people try them on. If I ordere online I might not.

Holls2011:
I sometimes purposefully wait to pay a bill based on how much money I have in the bank.nbsp; I will have the money to cover the bill, but not enough to feel "safe" if something huge came up.nbsp; So I have to pay late fees a lot of the time.nbsp; nbsp;It is something that I am trying my hardest to work on.nbsp; I have money issues since my parents always had trouble paying bills.nbsp; Now I can't feel comfortable unless I have a certain amount of money in the bank.nbsp; I also avoid doing major things eye exam, new glasses, getting wisdom teeth removed, get a new car, etc because I am terrified that my nest will be dwindled and something could happen.nbsp;

I do this too. I wish I didn't, but when I don't my anxiety goes through the roof.

Back to MASH - have you seen the movie? And heard the lyrics to the theme song? I was seriously creeped out the first time I heard the words - guess I'd never noticed that the title of the theme song is "Suicide is Painless".

And now I had to look it up on Wikipedia and the film director's son was 14 when he wrote it.

I wash panties and things like that but not bras. My breast have been around. They can take it.

LOL

Hey, Rondack! Nice boobs!

My confession: I asked DH for $100 to buy a new dress. It may have cost $150. I may be asking him to put an extra $50 in my account later and pretend like it's for something else.

My confession would be that it would drive me crazy if I had to ask my DH for money to buy something...

LOL, it's not as bad as it sounds. I SAH, and we have separate but linked accounts because its easier for us to keep track of our budget like that. So it's "our" money, but it comes out of his paycheck. 

Give him a BJ in the dress and then admit it cost an extra fifty bucks. I doubt he'll complain.

I plan to. I'm currently on a weightloss mission in conjunction with a weaning mission so I want to let things 'settle' before I spend the money.

Because I used to work the back stock room at target, I wash everything before I wear it. This shocks DW, because she's normally the germophobe in our relationship where my motto is "It's probably fine". But I just assume all clothes are going to be somewhat dusty and dingy from their transport chain.

My early UO: If you can't remember the last time you have a BJ then it's been too long.

There was a time when I wasn't 100% sure if DW spit or swallowed.

I make significantly less than my DH and we have separate accounts, so I end up having to ask him for money all the time. It's not that big a deal.

Yet somehow it feels like it hasn't been long enough.

I can't remember the last time I bought a 100-150 dress. Maybe prom? A bridesmaid dress?

Signed cheap

I have never bought any article of clothing (or shoes, purse, jewelry) that cost $100. My prom dress was like 50 or 60 bucks. Shiit, the dress I got married in only cost $30.

We're on a budget, so in theory we both have to ask each other any time we make non-essential purchases.

In practice, DW buys clothes whenever she feels she "needs" them.

I like Michael Buble. nbsp;There, I said it.nbsp;

I like him more as a person than for his music. He's super funny. He recently hosted our music awards show and he did all these fake skits with celebs. It was awesome.

Holls2011:
I just was asked last night for the first time. I don't know what it entails, but I happily accepted. Clearly, I am na?ve.

This was me last year when I was asked. I was going to be 7 months pregnant at her wedding and still accepted. I will go out on a limb and say I hope I'm never asked again. It wasn't necessarily a ton of work, but it was more work and money than I ever wanted to put into a party that I had to attend sober. And pregnant as hell.

Now I'm running into the problem where people are asking me to photograph their wedding. They think they are getting a free photographer, and I always feel compelled to do it for free since it's usually a close friend or family member, but it's so. much. work.
