    Dear DS1,

    While I am flattered you love me so much, the "one more kiss mommy, one more hug mommy" game in the morning has got to stop. Mommy has to get out the door and go to work, and your delay tactics are breaking my heart. When daddy has to pull you off of me kicking and screaming, it makes for a very emotional and guilt ridden drive to work. It's bad enough to shake this confident WM's confidence. Please stop. I love you. And I promise once busy season is over, I'll take a day off and we will just spend it together, you and me and no baby. Mmk?

    Love, Mommy

    Dear LoCarb-

    Start listening to yourself and following your own advice.

    The good angel that resides on your shoulder


    Dear Nonnie and Mom-
    You will not be happy with the news I have to share with you. Be gentle on me. It's been a bad year with a string of awful events. I don't need any  more drama. And Nonnie-sometimes I wish you didn't keep a journal of dates and you were not thoughtful sending cards on special days. Then I could avoid the situation longer as rec'd by specialists.

    -hesitant to call you

    Dear @LoCarb

    Hope you are okay.

    Big hugs, creepy Internet stranger

    Dear @Privacywanted

    I hate tearful goodbyes too! Hope she was easy on you. And I hope you are all feeling better.

    Hugs to you too, FD

    Dear old firm -

    Please just sign the release so that I can get access to my 401k account. I want to roll it over and be done with you for good. Wasn't it enough of a kick in the ass that you "laid me off" the day that I was giving birth after you made me work 60 hour weeks throughout my entire pregnancy? Do you really need to screw around with my 401k too?

    Signed,

    Sorry that my getting pregnant caused so many problems

    Dear Realtor:

    Don't call us to tell us how excited you are about this buyer. Don't call until you have an offer in your hand.

    Signed,

    Tired of getting disappointed

    Dear DS:

    Thanks for being the bright spot in my day.

    Signed,

    A Momma who misses her baby badly

    @PrivacyWanted - I'm sure there is but at this point, I just want to them to sign the form to release my 401k so I can roll it over and be free from them.

    Dear Delivery Company,

    Don't call me at 7:30 am to inform me (with and automated recording) of my delivery on "Wednesday Sept 4th from 9:30am-11:30am."  Hello?  We both work over here.  Morning delivery is not an option, and why are you calling 2 hours before to set this up?!?! WTH!

    Signed,

    Dear Shakinros,

    While its good you had the talk with your boss about applying to grad schools and transitioning out of the senior leadership position you've held for 6 years, if you don't pull yourself together and get more productive, you'll be out of a job long before you have a graduate program to start.

    Nose to the grindstone, lady.

    Love,
    Me

    Dear DD,

    I am happy to hear that DCP rocked you to sleep this morning. I know you will adjust quickly. Me, on the other hand, I'm not so sure about.

    Love,
    Mommy

    Dear Boobs,

    Please produce more than 10 ounces per day. We need at least 12.

    Sincerely,
