Re: Open letter Wednesday

  • Dear DH

    Thank you for finally allowing me to relax a little bit!

    Dear LO

    Please move out of my pelvis, you are seriously hurting mommy.

    Dear kids school

    You are stupid and I proved you wrong. Even your own psychologist told you my child is not in need of special Ed so please hire better teachers and stop telling me that she needs a 504, she is freaking bored!

  • Dear pile of crap on my desk,

    Magically take care of yourself the same way I'm magically going to deliver this baby via rainbows and storks.
    OMG, THIS plus the rest of my classroom!

    Dear Bosses,

    I get that you had an opportunity to hire the long term sub that's been here since the beginning of the year and was supposed to be my sub and you took it.  That's fine and I don't fault her for taking a full time job over a temporary one.  I also do believe that you will find someone as quickly as you can and am very glad that you already have a couple resumes.  I'll somehow get everything organized, packed, and locked up in the next two days.  Not exactly what I anticipated doing, but it is what it is.

    I do have a huge problem, however, with how you handled the situation.  You talked to the sub.  You talked to my teammate to make sure she wasn't upset that she wasn't offered this other position.  I, on the other hand, had to approach you to get find out what the hell was going on with my kids, my classroom, and my job.  Not cool.  I feel slighted and believe that I deserve more respect than that.  If people are leaving our school because they aren't happy, you'd think you'd treat EVERYONE involved in the situation with the same courtesy.  I'm going to thoroughly enjoy my 7 month leave and we'll see if I come back in the fall or not. 

    Signed, 
    Your overwhelmed and disgruntled employee


    Dear LO,

    Daddy, big sister, and I are all very excited to meet you.  We'd all really appreciate it if you could stay inside and cook for a few weeks longer.  Daddy will be in California from Friday morning until Saturday night picking up your big sister and I don't want him to miss your arrival.  I also really need your Daddy to be with me when you decide to meet your family.  So please, please, please hold on for a little while longer.

    Love,
    Your mommy

  • Dear Male Coworker, I realize I look tired.. I know this because I AM! I don't need this pointed out to me each and every day that I arrive to work. Trust me, I know I am tired. I slept like shit and I have to drag myself to work each day.. be happy that I showed up. I am counting the days until my maternity leave starts and until then I would appreciate not being told basically how awful I look. After you have carried a child and know the ups and downs of being pregnant first hand, maybe, then maybe I will humour myself to engage in a conversation with you about it. Til then, bug off! I mean this in the nicest way possible, thank you.
  • Dear LO,

    We'd like to meet you. Monday would be good. My uncle and his wife will be in town, MIL will be in town, and DH could go up to MN without worrying if I'm going into labor or not. So...Monday? You ready for Monday? Yes? Ok, it's a date!

    Love,
    Your miserable, sore, lonely momma

    Just curious if the school explained what a 504 plan is. Most parents are unaware due to the lack of district communication....
  • Dear gestational diabetes,
    I hate you!  I should be enjoying food.  I'm hungry all the time and I feel like my life revolves around food, but I dread eating because I'm worried about my blood sugar.  So, if you could just go away, that would be great.  
    Thanks,
    C

    Dear yogurt,
    You are not ice cream.  And you never will be.

    Dear ice cream,
    I miss you!  We will be reunited someday, I promise!  I'm only having yogurt because I can't have you, but I don't love yogurt! You are the one for me!!!  xoxoxoxoxo

  • Dear Wednesday night,
    Please do not try and duplicate Tuesday night. It was not fun getting 0 minutes of sleep!!

    Dear Thursday,
    I do not want to have a bad day tomorrow. Today was terrible. I hate being cranky because I didn't get sleep last night. I then fell slipped down four stairs (thankfully we are fine). LO's monogram finally arrived in the mail and it all messed up...there is a random hole, the paint is peeling, there is a blue smudge...not good Pottery Barn. Finally, the OB said LO is "way up there" and probably isn't coming today. Try to make Thursday more tolerable. Thanks!

    Love, your annoyed neighbor.
