It's early im bored and I got nothin, yet!

reinedecajun · June 2013

NO lie my middle son peed the bed until he was like 9. It was awful..I guess this is more a confession than a UO but yeah i've done that^. Indifferent

I'm in a meme mood today.

Yep, unless your a really close friend I have no desire to hold your baby. Even if your a really close friend I still probably dont want to hold your baby. I'm not to keen on babysitting either, unless it's trade for you babysitting my kid. I'll look and say "aw how cute" and "he looks like so and so" that's about it. I'm all fulled up on holding babies over here.

Anyone have freecycle?

I joined a freecycle group about a year ago and I finally left the group this morning. Every time I would see something posted that I was interested in I would email the person and never hear back from anyone. All day long my email inbox would fill with people "wanting" stuff. Like friggin HD TV's, computer's, monitors,cars, cell phones, ipads..im like wtf? I joined trying to find some old furniture to restore or something along those lines and all these people are looking for is electronics, expensive electronics. When I see "looking for 42in HDTV" in the subject line of a freecycle post it makes me want to vomit! Get a job and go buy it yourself!

When people use BIRTHDAY for things that were not birthed. It is that store's ANNIVERSARY, NOT Birthday.

I can one-up the distaste for fake watermelon: I don't like the REAL stuff.

BubbaJug · June 2013

The idea of watermelon, strawberry, whateverelse oreos sicks me out. I also dislike almost all fruit flavored beverages(does not apply to actual juice)... Strawberry Kiwi, sick, get it away, raspberry anything, no thank you.... I will drink the crap out of some peach iced tea though.

I love watermelon.
I am with jfresh on the fruit dislike. My problem with most of it is texture.

I am trying very hard to expose Henry to a bunch of food that I personally would never eat.
100% agree to the bolded.  She's eaten things that I haven't eaten or will not try.
I think the H/man should always drive when a couple is traveling.  It looks goofy to me to see a woman driving with a man in the front seat.  Very rarely do I ever drive when my H and I are going somewhere together.  "It's the man's job" I tell him.  Also, I do it because sometimes I want to nap.

I never drive if mike is with me. Never. I use that time to sit and do nothing

I have another. I have no intention of reminding Josh today is our anniversary. I don't feel like it is my job to remind him. I am not upset about it but will use it to my advantage tonight to get a back rub.

Happy anniversary!

I get really bad car sick so DH never drives! I drove us home from our wedding.. in my dress and all! Better than getting sick!

I used to think I wanted to try for another baby shortly after my first LO's first birthday so they could be roughly 2 years apart. After going through pregnancy and seeing how hard it can be to bounce back, I don't get the desire to have another so soon. Having another even means I quit work, but I have zilch baby fever right now.

I always make my H drive when we're together, not because I think it's his job but because he critics EVERY single move I make. You should have turned then, you don't have to stop, you could have made that light, blah blah blah. I got tired of saying STFU you can drive if you don't like how I do it!
YES!!! My H is the same way. "you're going to kill us making turns like that!" There are so many factors, but needless to say he always drives.

YES!!!!! SHUT UP! More times than I can count I've told him " I don't care to hear another word out of your mouth until we get there."

My UO is that even when seeing old pics of my LO's I do not miss them being that little. Those first weeks were rough, and I will not be forgetting that any time soon Stick out tongue

No baby fever at all over here!

Me too.  I am nostalgic about Tyler getting older, but it does not make me want another.  The only thing I loved about pregnancy was that I felt great at the end, and feeling him move.  No thanks. 
My UO is that I am perfectly happy with Tyler, and I honestly believe that if I had another baby I would not love them nearly as much as I love him, and they would grow to resent me.  I also am worried that Tyler is going to grow up and be a bad husband because I love him so much, and I literally am so obsessed with him, that I will do anything for him.  I need to make a conscious effort to raise him to be a man, not a manchild.  Part of me thinks having another baby would help this, but I literally have no interest.  No baby will ever compare to him.  I feel like a bad person saying that, but it is why I am absolutely not trying for another.

I very, VERY much felt this way about Ben. I was TERRIFIED of having another, and truly felt that she could never compare to him. Truth? She can't. She's completely different and so is our bond, but it's not any less special or strong. I love her the "same" BECAUSE I love her different. I can remember life before her, certainly, but I can't remember who I was before I was her mommy. She's part of me. The silliest thing I ever thought was that I might not love her enough.

I've had similar thoughts, but realize plenty of people have more than one kid and love them equally. I think it's just that you love each kid in a different way. I have no doubt that if I have another, I will hold him/her in as high a regard as I do B and will love him/her just as much. As for the manchild thing, omg, you and me both. I am having to make a conscious effort now not to run to him and baby him. I desperately want him to be independent and I don't want him to be a sissy, but I want him to be his mama's boy forever. It's hard to find the line between making him a mama's boy and being mama's boy. I already don't like the girl he's going to marry because I don't want her taking him away from me! Haha

I always drive unless were going out of town. My husband taps the brakes while he talks, like hitting the brake is his punctuation or something it's weird and he's never quiet so there's that.

I love any leftovers

I have 4 kids and love them each more than i've ever loved anything. Theres not really a way to measure that.

I have zerooooooooooooooooooooooooo baby fever, like artic chill of baby fever here.

Watermelon is so yummy with some salt on it, as well as grapefruit and cantaloupe.

"fruit" flavored stuff is nasty..unless it's a sno cone those are delicious. Fruit flavored Vodka also makes my nice "fruit flavor" list. Drinks

I don't know if this is a UO or a confession, but I have zero intentions to BF this next [currently hypothetical] baby.[/quote

I don't know if I want to BF my [possible] next child either. I probably will for a while but this wearing thing is a PITA and I think it's because she's attached to the comfort of the boob. I am NOT someone who wants to do this BFing thing past a year so I realllly wish that I had quit at like 6 months so it wouldn't be as big of a problem getting her on cows milk. Ugh.

Want a personalized experience?
