  • Got laid tonight, and I think standard missionary is officially off the table now. ::sigh:: I just got too squished up. Damn big ass belly.
    Yeah, I think I've hit the point where "sex makes me feel like my insides are going to fall out my vagina for hours after" stage :(

    @michaelad3 that sounds amazeballs - I need that recipe like right now! Raspberries and any kind of dough are a major weakness of mine, and I'm drooling imagining the deliciousness!

    Edit: I found the link you posted for the recipe - yay!

    It's raining right now and the temp is dropping. I'm actually kind of freaking out.

    It rained for hours, alllll day long. The high was 50 something but it flooded all the roads... It's dropped down 20 degrees in the past couple of hours and the high is 1 tomorrow.... Super duper worried everything is just going to be a major ice rink. Of course I have to work my stupid part time job, because why would you close a gym in January?? Be safe? Naw... Gotta get that work out in.
  • I knew I would regret the hot chocolate I drank an hour ago.  Now the acid fire devil is a-rising.

  • I'm watching Dateline, and the first story about housing in big cities made me angry for all the parents that are fighting their landlords just to provide a safe and healthy place for their kids who have asthma because of said housing.


    Now the second story is about kids who feel like plastic surgery is the only way to end bullying when it comes to their looks. Why are kids so mean? I know I was bullied some in middle school, but I never thought anyone had it that bad...

    My momma bear is starting to show - all of this makes me so angry and sad!
    This!! DH put it on and we just ranted and raged over all of it. I can't be toooo mad at the show since it sparked a lovely productive conversation about what our parents did right and what we would do differently regarding self-esteem and character building etc etc... It is super fun to put on our judgey pants together and hypothesize about how we want to be the best parents who ever lived, not gonna lie.

    Yes. I thought I was going to suffocate last time!! Sorry, DH, not happening.
  • I wonder how long this thread is gonna be by the time our babies are born
    At the rate it's going? Pages in the 700s by April. Assuming we hit 300 by January 11th, that's about 150 pages per month (I think the thread was started Nov. 11th).

  • Sometimes I want to 'Love' a post to show my sympathy or support until I realize 'loving' your insides falling out of your vagina might not appear how I want it to. There should be a MMMMHMMMM finger-snap button.
    Hahahahaha this is me all the time. There should be an "I relate" button without having to love it!
    Yes! This knitting site I was on had the following buttons, and it was awesome:

    Agree
    Disagree
    Love it!

  • Ok, we try to keep Sundays as a day of rest. We're not great at it, but we try to not do anything we don't want to do on Sundays. Hubby just did all the dishes that have been slowly accumulating over the last four days (we've been eating out a lot, so our usual "whoever cooks doesn't clean" went out the door, and the water cups have been piling up) AND cleaned out the refrigerator. <3<3<3

  • When a dog rides an elevator, do you think he realizes he's just on a different floor when the doors open?  Or does he go, "Holy shit, the world just changed before my eyes!"?


    The things I think about... :P
    This made me laugh lol

  • Well my first real potential wedding client was a bust. She wanted a 10K wedding for 2K. ha not happening. Told her the best I could do was 5K and she wasn't hearing it. Oh well I can't make miracles happen.

  • If you aren't near a Trader Joes (like me) Biscoff spread is really good too! They have it at most grocery stores, Target, and Walmart. 
  • I am done painting baby's crib and changing table until we find out the sex. I'm so excited! We still have so much to do but at least I got some stuff done!

    DD was awesome today even tho she didn't take a nap

    I got some lovey time with DH after DD went to bed and now my back hurts like hell. :(

    DH dragged me out of the house in nesting mode today (read: refusal to shower or spend time doing anything but work on prepping the nursery to paint), and we ran into my friend at Target who is also my hairdresser. She totally caught me with a greasy head buying preparation h wipes, and DH and I had absolutely zero shame. Pregnancy may be doing awful things to my body, but my capacity for embarrassing things rolling off my back has grown astronomically. I'm into it.

    Isn't it prep h that you can use for dark circles under your eyes? No shame in that.

    If I remember Miss Congeniality correctly, that's the other use for it.


    Hehehe, this made me giggle. We were definitely standing in the aisle with different butt wipe options in our hands weighing pros and cons. It probably would have mortified me pre pregnancy and I would have wanted the under eye circle excuse, but not today! I'd much rather discuss my hemorrhoid problem than another asshole asking if I'm sure it isn't twins. :)

    Yeah, so fuck this "work" thing.  I'm staying home tomorrow to bump, watch Downton Abbey, and drink hot chocolate all day.  


    After all, new year = new PTO ;) 
    Lucky!! Our PTO is accrued not yearly. And tomorrow I go back after 2 weeks off. I'm going to die.

    Sorry if I missed it but are you a planner? Caterer? Just curious.
    Planner. Amateur at this point but here's to hoping ;)

  • @Pineconey - we were told we can call in and use PTO if we feel it is "unsafe" to come to work.  I'm trying to figure out how to tell my boss I feel unsafe/scared over a possibility of my car breaking down without sounding like a total wuss.  I've heard stories from people about how long AAA is taking to respond to roadside emergencies, and even though I have no reason to think my car actually WOULD break down, it'd be the worst day ever for it to happen.

    Also, I'm still pissed at my employer for making me work Christmas Eve, day after Christmas, and New Year's Eve.  Soooo that's working against them right now too.  I've been busting my ass at work and had to spend Christmas just DH and I while everyone else took time off for the holidays (since I've only been here since April 2013).  So I feel like I've earned a day off to rub my belly and put my feet up ;)

    I wouldn't even really explain it; I'd just go with something like, "In light of the inclement weather, I won't be in. Toodles."


    If I was your boss and read Toodles at the end of the email I would give you employee of the year!! I forgot how much I love that word!!!

  • I don't wanna go back to work!!!  :((
    I'm spoiled, I know. But seriously, can it be maternity leave already? I don't want to do anything but stay home, play with my dogs, fix my house, bump, and go for walks. And see friends. And eat. If I might end up being a reluctant SAHM anyway, can we just start that now? Please?

    I noticed I have linea Negra today. Stop looking for them. I just don't even look at my naked body anymore. It's too strange to me.
    I was lubing up before bed and boom three litte squiggles poking out to say hello
