I come back from vacation (because that's not bad enough, going from 80's and beautiful to 20's and snow) to hear:
*cough* *hack* *achoo* *cough* *nose blowing* *spitting of flem into a tissue*
from multiple people in the office. I'm barracading myself in my office and I'm not coming out without a mask on my face and lysol wipes.
Seriously people, if you're sick, leave your fucking germs at home instead of spreading them to everyone, including myself with my awesome non-existent immune system.
I am annoyed with my in-laws. They kept DS over the weekend for us. They only had him for about 45 hours and I came back home and he had scratches and bruises he didn't have before I left...one was a huge, deep scratch - really more of a cut. And he had bruises on his backbone like he had fallen on his spine. I can almost forgive this because he is a toddler and he has accidents--even though I felt like it was excessive and probably a result of them not properly supervising him--but he also had bad diaper rash. Come on? How hard is it to prevent diaper rash? We keep destin at every diaper change station in the house. Use it. I just feel like this is absolute laziness. He didn't have diarrhea...which is pretty much the only other reason he has ever gotten diaper rash before. You just didn't bother to change his diaper appropriately or even bother to use a little destin...and that pisses me off.
On top of that, they left my house dirtier when than when we left....which is the last thing a pregnant lady who works and has a toddler needs. There were clean, folded clothes sitting on the couch that I had not had time to put up yet (I had been sick and busy at work leading up to this weekend) and instead of simply moving them out of the way, they just sat on them and now they are all crumpled up and will have to be re-washed.
Oh, and stray cat ran in the house and they just left him in there OVERNIGHT instead of getting him out. We spent nearly $20k replacing all of the flooring and carpet in our older home just before DS was born. Now there is cat pee and poo somewhere in our house on our new carpet that we have to go hunting for...because there is no way the cat didn't pee or poo in 24 hours. Their excuse was that they didn't know how to get him out. In reality, a little food would have coaxed him out, but crap if that didn't work I don't understand why they didn't call animal control if they had to! You don't just leave a stray cat in someone's house to pee and crap everywhere!!!
Ahhhh. It felt good to get that out. Sorry it was so long.

It snowed yesterday. A lot. I live about 45 minutes from where I work. Farthest from anyone in the entire department. And my county shut down because of the weather. I made it into work today. My boss, who told me I had to come in because everyone was expected to come in, did not. Neither did half the staff..who all take the bus to work. Also-the roads are fine. Just wet. This, my internet bffs, is why I put my 2 weeks in last week.
Been there sister. I was the person who would always come in no matter what, until I realized that no one else comes in when it snows/ices and I said "eff this" and I stay home. I hate my job too much to risk life and limb (and now baby) to get here.
I arrived at the airport at 5:30 a.m. for my 6:20 a.m. flight... It is now 9:30 a.m. and here I still sit with no real answers as to when my plane will leave and I've got a pissed off boss to boot. Work travel is very glamorous... [-X
Today is our first day back to school after having snow days Thursday and Friday and I'm sure the kids are going to be crazy!
Also, dh woke up at 4:30 puking and with a fever. I took a shit ton of vitamin c and moved to the couch...I hope that's enough to keep me from getting it!
I have an interview for a promotion. About half the people who were supposed to be part of it aren't here today...including the one person who I thought would be my "make it or break it." Not sure if that is a blessing or a curse.
Oh and I worked all day while it snowed yesterday and had no time to enjoy it
I am pretty involved with our Chamber of Commerce. Tonight is the annual Christmas dinner, and this is the first year we haven't been able to go because DD has her kindergarten Christmas program tonight at the same time. We already purchased our tickets, so we asked DH's parents to take our place. Got a phone call at 10:30 last night saying school was cancelled bc of ice on the roads. I got excited bc I assumed it meant the Christmas program would be rescheduled, so we would be able to attend the dinner. Nope. We have to check the school website all day today for program updates. I know it's not that important of a thing to be upset about BUT, I recently just took over a town event and they are going to talk about it tonight at the dinner too. I was looking forward to it. OH well. Life goes on. At least if the program isn't cancelled, I will get to see my adorable DD say her lines she has been working so hard on!

This totally sucks. Friendly bit of advice- Get a bottle of Nature's Miracle Cat Urine Odor Destroyer. You can find it at most pet stores. It is a god send for both cleaning the stains and removing the odor. It is a little more expensive than the other odor removers but 100% worth it. My cat had a stubborn UTI and we had to deal with him peeing on things for a couple of months and the stuff made it so you couldn't even tell I had a cat let alone one peeing everywhere.
@ASasquatch and @ljbreck - Thanks for the suggestions! We have not even found it yet, but I know it is somewhere. Apparently, the cat ran on to our third floor - which is basically a finished attack that we have a bunch of boxes and miscellaneous stuff stored in - and hid out so now I am guessing we will probably have to move all of the boxes around to find the pee/poo stain.

We got about 3 inches of snow, which isn't bad, but they predicted a "coating". I am also the first one to arrive to work in my area, I get in this morning at 5:30 and apparently the cleaning crew did the carpets and left this giant industrial fan turned on all weekend. It was freezing when I got in, lo an behold the heat is broken.
@IbackBevo Oh gross that's so awful! Hooray for ILs right? If you don't have a steam cleaner though I would get one I think they are so handy to have. I have the bissel pet version that warms the water and you use a wand to spot clean the floors. It was about $100 but I use it at home and for our cars I've had mine about a year and I use it at least once a month.
Mine complaint is from last week but some guy came into my office for a price quote, tried to haggle, proceeded to cough directly into my half drank coffee and all over my office without covering his mouth. I have never been more disgusted with humanity.
I lost my phone in the snow yesterday while Christmas tree hunting only to have my husband watch as I searched for it. Ass. I am going back today with some random dude with a metal detector to look for it. Let's hope murder isn't in my future. While all of this sucks, I feel bad for venting after reading @IbackBevo 's story. Too bad you can't trade in in-laws.
This isn't necessarily a "bitch", but i'll proceed anyway. I work with adults with disabilities. Many ASD, but also some general developmental/cognitive disabilities. The individual I see on Mondays and Fridays is one my boss would like to call a "mental healthy"...meaning straight up crazy. There is a part of this person's brain that doesn't allow them to control temper and reactions and whatnot...so needless to say, it's a constant walk on eggshells type of thing. Today he did not want to go to work (we volunteer at a senior center). Instead, he wanted to vent about how terrible all of his other staff are. So I spent a solid 2 hours in a tiny, over-heated, Axe-ridden apartment reasoning with a grown man about being kind to others. In the midst of this conversation, he says this:
Him: Well, I'd much rather just put myself in a graveyard. Me: That would make for a terribly sad Christmas for your family and friends! Him: Why? Jesus died, didn't he?! Me: Ya, but he didn't kill himself, sooo.........
I had to chuckle.
(for the record, he doesn't actually want to kill himself. I'd liken it to when a young child says they want to run away because they don't like the rules or something)
Yeh... @IBackBevo 's post made me shudder and say, "No way" out loud. At least twice. I got nothin' like that...just a MIL who won't leave me alone. So yeh...nothing like a stray cat hiding in my house, a re-clean, and extra laundry to do. Ugh.
I have a second bitch. I'm out of food. I already ate all the breakfast/lunch/multiple snacks I brought with me to work. I have another 4 hours to go. I'm going to be "rip your face off" hungry by the time I get home.
after being cooped up for 4 days due the weather I thought id be super motivated to get out of the house and get to work......but upon arrival to my office I had about 20 angry phone calls from clients and a crap ton of emails to go through so now im just overwhelmed and lost all will power to work.....
DH just scolded me and made me feel bad for not gaining enough weight. I've only gained 3 pounds and I'm 19 weeks. But it's not like I'm intentionally trying to not gain weight! I had very bad morning sickness and nothing seems appetizing. I still eat thou! Then I have to hear it from my family saying I look like a whale and I'm going to "roll" by the end of my pregnancy! Really??! Can't people just let me be!!
Thanks everyone for the sympathy and suggestions re carpet cleaning! I always feel better knowing that I am not being a "crazy pregnant lady" at my annoyances with my in-laws.

Oh hell no!! Why do people think it's acceptable to comment on a woman's weight when she's pregnant?!!?
I don't usually participate in the Bitchfest but today I feel the need to vent..... We rent from a family members and there is another family member who has some personal items in a small room in our apartment (family member let her put them there prior to us getting pregnant). This family member is refusing to move them from that room b/c their stuff was there before our baby! If this ends up being the case we will have my office, our bed, the dogs crate, the baby and the treadmil all in iur bedroom bc there is no where else to put the baby! I'm about to lose my shit over this and I swear that I will move out before May if this is the case. With or without my husband bc I need to do what's best for our child not his childish family member..... Ok end rant. Really they aren't terrible this is just the most selfish absord thing I've ever heard of! It's not like there aren't other options like moving their stuff to a closet or a bedroom at a different house!!!! I'll even pay for the moving cost, hell I'll pay for anything damaged in the move! Just get the shit out before June 1st.... Or I'll be out!

Oh jeez! I have no idea!! I wish there was some kind of law against this! Lol
I cleaned the whole house from top to bottom like I always do every Sunday. I had just swept and mopped all 2000 sqft of my tile and My mother in law who lives with us walks out of her room (who just had a procedure done on her foot and she's supposed to be wearing gauze on her foot cuz it bleeds) and walks BAREFOOT all the way down my hall to my kitchen then to my den with her foot bleeding! And back to her room! Blood spots all over my floor.. I wanted to choke her out! And she never bats an eye. Because she never cleans anything! Oh man so I mop all over and guess what? I wake up this morning and there's fucking blood again! Omg I almost had a heart attack. I didn't even clean it up. She's mopping today I'm over it. Ugh...
I was sick for the last half of last week, and when I finally started feeling better yesterday morning I sliced my finger, basically to the bone, on a metal can top. Went to the emergency room and got stitches and a tetanus shot. Got into an argument with my partner last night, had a shitty commute this morning and almost fell walking into work, and I'm the grumpiest. Bitch, bitch, bitch.
yesterday morning I sliced my finger, basically to the bone, on a metal can top.
Just reading this gave me the chills! I can't stand the site of very deep wounds or cuts...makes me lightheaded. I would of passed out if this happened to me! Hope you're okay thou!

Ah, thanks, I'm fine now! I'm super squeamish too and think that my immediate reaction was crying and exclaiming, "Noooooooooo!" Definitely almost fainted. Yuck.
We had our anatomy scan today. Baby is healthy, and we are so glad. HOWEVER. We are Team Green. The ultrasound tech didn't do a great job of telling us when not to look and kept jumping all over the baby's body without warning. I am 99% sure I saw a penis. So now I'm pretty sure we're having another boy except its not confirmed and the surprise is spoiled but not officially. I'm just cranky and upset. Blah. Hate Monday.
ETA that I'm not upset baby is a boy but that the tech wasn't careful. Now I wish we'd just found out officially so I could know for sure.
I'm pretty jealous of all you guys who have schools closed because I wouldn't have to work today if school was closed so I was kind of looking forward to a 4 day weekend. Although it makes me nervous because my husband and others still have to go to work usually and it's scary when the roads are bad. We also usually get snowed in for a couple days because our subdivision is like last priority and we are at the end of a coulda sac but would of liked to sleep in and get things done around the house!
My husband is switching to nights for work for the next eight months. Tonight is his first night. I hate when he works nights. He's miserable and that makes me miserable.
My car wouldn't start this morning. I was already running late, and DH was in the shower when I discovered that it wouldn't start. So I had to wait for him to dry off and come help me jump it (which I really could have done myself, I guess, but whatever). I ended up taking DH's car anyway so he could try and get me a new battery today, and I was like 15 minutes late for work. (I'm a teacher, so that was a pain in the ass. They had to have another teacher come sit with my class for 15 mintues)
Then the heat was out in one of the classrooms I teach in today. I borrowed space heaters from 2 other teachers (which are prized possessions around here since they are 100% against the rules) and one of them broke during class, so after 85 minutes of freezing my tits off and listening to 17 freshman girls complaining, I not only had to tell the teacher I borrowed it from that I broke it, but the teacher in that room after me had to suffer through a frigid 85 minutes as well.

Ugh, that's so annoying! The first thing I said when I walked in for my A/S was "we don't want to know! Please tell us when to look away!" It kind of sucks that they just figure everyone wants to find out then.
My bitch: Today I got invited to a 1 year old's birthday party. I first met this woman and her son in February at a local mom's group. Since June, I've seen her twice and that's been our only contact. I now feel obligated to go and give a gift and it's putting me in a bad mood. Maybe I'm the tacky bitch, but this is why I only invited my kid's grandparents, aunts and uncles to his birthday party.
I feel totally helpless about our financial situation. Last December I quit my job to go back to school and DH was going to support us. He decided he hated his job and quit and now can't find another one because he jumped around a lot. I'd go get another job except no temp job will get back to me, probably because I am overqualified and no permanent job will hire me because I'm (now obviously) pregnant. So there's not much I can do as we piss away our savings, DH whines everyday, the bank refuses to modify our mortgage because we refinanced after 2010 and SNAP (CT's food stamps program) won't return our calls.
1. It snowed here last night. No big surprise, we live in New England. The problem is, every single person in the state suddenly "forgets" how to drive the second anything starts falling from the sky. My 10 minute commute to work took almost an hour because everyone was driving around with their heads up their asses.
2. DH woke up this morning, saw the snow and decided to work from home. Granted, DH's commute would make my head explode on a gorgeous day, but still. I'm 18 weeks pregnant, exhausted from decorating the tree and house all by myself last night, and I still managed to get up and get my shit together to head into the office. He's sitting at home cuddling on the couch with the dogs, and I'm bitter.
@Empireceo Don't go. It's not like you see her anyway. Tell her you have a prior commitment that day. If you think your LO will have a good time, maybe you should go! Haha. I don't like being invited to 1yr old bday birthday parties for kids I see once or twice a year, plusalso, I don't have any kids!!
My bitch: it's too darn windy and cold. On the way from an assembly earlier the wind blew my 120lb body about 5-7ft! I have kindergarteners... You best believe those little ones were flying past me and there was nothing I could do about it! I felt helpless and more so seeing those tiny beings and their worried faces as they were being blown. Smarties held on to a pole and we ran to the hallway as soon as the gust stopped. So scary. I've always hated the wind and more so now!

The image in my head of this is so freakin' sad!!! Poor babies!
This past Saturday my husband and I attended my work Christmas party. My husband was ordering himself cocktails that had limes and lemons on it, he doesn't use the lime/lemons so I snatched and ate them the way I usually do. My boss's wife went on to lecture me about how bad it was for the baby and the baby would thank me if I just went to the bar and asked for some of my own limes. My sweet husband ended up getting me my own plate of limes just to keep me happy.
Later she asked if I should really be dancing being pregnant and all! Ah! Stop making me feel like I can't take care of my child! Leave me alone!

Later she asked if I should really be dancing being pregnant and all! Ah! Stop making me feel like I can't take care of my child! Leave me alone!
