Monday Bitchfest

I feel like the fact that I always start this means you guys think I hate my life. I don't, really. I just hate my work, and after two blissful days off, stoopid bitches always rear their ugly heads on Monday morning.

What do you guys have?

Re: Monday Bitchfest

  • I'm having the opposite problem this morning! I wish I COULD go to work today. But after yesterday being 50 degrees and melting most of the snow we've had for several weeks, mother nature decided to start fresh. So now we are experiencing "Maximus" or whatever they've named this storm. DH is stuck in the middle of a 24 hour shift so we don't even get to enjoy the day together. So I've got my cranky pants on today. I'm sick of snow!

  • My kid. She got up this morning, scampered down the hallway to throw away the pullup she peed in, scampered back to her room, and got dressed. Then proceeded to yell down the hallway like her legs were broken. Some stupid shit about her water bottle.... This is a regular thing, not getting up to come ask for what she needs, but yelling down the hallway instead. We've started ignoring her.

  • I don't have much to complain about because we have a snow day that I will not have to make up because I'll be on maternity leave.

    But....I decided to plan a yummy supper for my husband since he has to work today. I just looked in the fridge and we have no butter or milk and I want mashed potatoes. I'm horrible at driving in the snow so don't want to go to the store. Boo!

    I have a snow day. That's nice. But DD has peed in her pants twice and it's not even 10 am. She NEVER has accidents at daycare. I had her clean her pants and panties this morning thinking she might realize how much work it is...but I think she enjoys it. Urgh.

    ETA: Make that 3 accidents...three!

  • Preface: We are staying with ILs until we buy a house (which should be soon). They have been very gracious and have opened up their home and lives to us. I am very grateful. 

    Bitch: MIL can be very trying, so I've learned to brush most of the ridiculous things she says/does off and carry on. This past weekend she was babysitting our nephews who live about ten minutes away. Instead of staying at their house with them, she brought them to stay the weekend at her (our) house. On Saturday afternoon, after he's been puking all morning, we find out the youngest most likely has strep and a sinus infection. All she said to me was, "Eh, it's not that big of a deal. You might not want to sit too close to him." WTF? Not "I'm going to take them over to their house so you don't get sick" just "Eh." So I holed up in our bedroom and didn't come out. She texted his mom that nephew was sick and SIL (mom) decides to come home early because she doesn't want me, the pregnant lady to get ill. MIL brushes it off as NBD and says he's fine, he just needs a hot meal and some rest. My H was a Navy Corpsman and looked at nephew's throat--it was awful and H told his mother that the little guy needed to go to a doctor, not just down a hot meal. Suddenly MIL changes her tune, "God, he is really sick. He looks awful. Something is really wrong with him." No shit. So at 7pm, she takes him home and SIL returned from her trip early. The next morning, MIL says to me, "Well, you're probably fine. Strep is one of the most difficult things to catch." Meanwhile SIL keeps texting me to check in and make sure I'm ok.

    ...I am sitting at my desk with a sore throat and chills, kinda pissed off at MIL for being so blase about things and kinda pissed off at myself for not just going to a hotel or something. 
  • DD has been sick since Tuesday, so I was really looking forward to going back to work. Walked in the door this morning, and immediately wanted to turn around. Nope, nuhuh, don't wanna, can't make me. Oh, wait... No car to go home with. Insert long string of cussing here. But as of Monday of last week, EVERY CLASS is my FAVORITE CLASS. At least until I start throwing them out again.

     

    I definitely feel like the co-worker that yells at everyone. I am trying REAL hard not to do that this semester... Not good for my velociraptor.

  • My coworker came in sick today.  I love her, but seriously, she knows I'm pregnant and has been coughing and sneezing ALL MORNING.  She was out last week because she was tired and not feeling well and then told me she was sick all weekend as well.  She has plenty of accrued time off to take but doesn't want to waste her "time off" on a sick day.  What?!  That's why you have them! I've got my Lysol wipes ready to go...I cannot, I repeat, CANNOT, get sick!

  • My car decided to start breaking. Will cost me over $2000 to fix that. Then got the bill from when I went to labor and delivery because I was dehydrated from the stomach flu. $1000 bill there. Isurance covered $12. I guess it goes towards my deductible, but I feel like money is being wasted! Sometimes I hate being an adult!

  • I am so tired of being sick and tired. And everyone in my household being sick and tired. I know that is pretty much what I bitch about every Monday, but it is never ending.  Last week's horrible cold is now a sinus infection.  Some form of illness has pretty much been circulating in my house for months on end now and it seems to trickle down to every aspect of my life from being too exhausted to do any housework to even affecting me somewhat at work.  I really need this to end.

  • I have a few:

    1. I am need a weekend where I don't have to do anything so that I don't feel exhausted on Monday morning.

    2. I hit every red light on my way to work today, making my 6 mile drive take about 20 minutes.

    3.  I seem to gain a pound a day even though I am not eating 3,000 extra calories a day.  I am going to be huge by the time May comes around at this rate.

    I also forgot to add that I have a meeting after work every day this week(I am a teacher).  I get to work at 7:15 everyday, work through lunch and will be lucky to leave by 5 this week.  Ugh.
  • @Sherlot and @MrsKTen I HATE when people do crap like that. If you're sick (or the kid your babysitting thing) please keep away from me! My supervisor did that back in Dec. and lo and behold I came down with bronchitis and was in the ER later on for it. I totally blamed it on him to his face (even though EVERYONE in our house had bronchitis before hand and thats most likely where I got it from, just wanted to make my boss feel like an ass)

    My bitch fest Monday... Since I quit my job last month I've had some crappy luck finding a new job. Even my back ups (like target and bed bath and beyond kinda places, which we have like 3 of each around here) are not hiring. To make matters worse, I went in for my follow up for my back injury (which goes through workman's comp from my old job). Dr says since it's getting worse, and will only get worse as my pregnancy goes on, that I am limited to sedentary desk work and can't lift more than 10lbs. So... there goes ALOT of jobs I could be applying for. If the workman's comp insurance finds out I'm doing anything other than what Dr says they drop my case and won't pay a dime and file insurance fraud. Which they've done once because I had to go for drill with the military and they said I don't follow my restrictions there. I have stricter restrictions being pregnant in the army than that!

    Long story short... I hate sitting at home and feel like a waste of space to my amazing other half. He's working his butt off and pretty stressed. We are ok financially but only because his parents are amazing and letting us live with them until we move at the end of the year back to PA where I grew up. I really wanna get back to work and make some money to help but I feel like I can't now. Hell yesterday we went with friends to the aquarium and less than half way through SO had to go get a wheelchair for me cause I could hardly walk anymore. 

    The cold isn't helping the pain either :( But I got the puppy chilling on the couch with me!! She's such a cuddle bug!

  • DH is mother henning me again. Love the man but unless he's going to make himself available round the clock-I'm going to have to get up from bed rest occasionally beyond bathroom privileges. And when I get up to use the bathroom I'm going to take advantage of the movement if I want to change scenery from the bed to the couch. And when I move, I get to take my snoogle.

    He gave me such a dirty look when he found out I'd dragged my snoogle into the living room by myself :(

  • It's Monday, I have a cold, and I'm sick of getting thrown in the middle of family drama. My sister texted me yesterday to inform me that she's cutting out communication with my mom and to not let her communicate through me. I have better things to do with my time than deal with her crap. I decided to actually go through with cutting her out of my life. She made my decision easy.
  • One of my closest Aunts decided to bitch to my mom the other day about the date my cousin and I picked for my baby shower. Never mind that my cousin posted a save the date a month ago, on FB, on our family FB page, and sent out an email asking everyone if the date worked for everyone. Since she didn't hear a word from our aunts she went a head and booked a place for the date we choose and ordered the invitations. I irrationally cried off and on all weekend thinking all 9 of my dad's sisters won't be attending my shower because of the date we choose later to find out that it's just because my cousin is the one hosting the shower and not one of my aunts
    ( who by the way never offered). I knew there would be drama for my cousin hosting, but didn't think my Aunt would be that catty about it.
  • My husband changes his mind so damn often it's driving me nuts! First he wants a doula, then he's highly offended by doula suggestion, then he wants one, now he doesn't. Ughhhhhhh. You're wasting my time and patience man! Forget it! I'm not contacting any more doulas if he changes his mind again.

    Oh my husband is the same! But with jobs, cars, houses etc. We just had a big argument about this last night. Ugh, men.

  • Today is the 9th day straight of working non-stop on this bleeping project. Because at 6months pg i love working 75hrs so far, and won't get a day off 'til Thursday. I can hardly function.
    And this weekend was awful. Apart from working 10 hrs sat and 11yesterday, I made time to see my 15yr old bro's hockey games, and his a**hole coaches have been giving him hardly any ice time even though he's one of the better defs, levelheaded, a team player, etc (nothing like other bro lol). Talking a whole game of 15, 20 or 30 second shifts, vs the weaker line doing 3min shifts! The poor kid just got so sick of it that he left the ice in the 3rd.
    And, cherry on the sundae, my pup, who often stays at my dad's farm because it's more fun for her, hasn't been seen since Friday morning :( I'm fearing the worst.
    All in all I just really want to cry.

    Mine will admit he changes his mind but will say "you've always known this abou me". Last night I said "buddy, this isn't changing your mind about a hair cut". Lol! He constantly has a new idea about something and will talk an talk about it. Then next week it's something else. I've learned to block it out :)
  • 1) This is my compressed work schedule week so I work 10 hour days for 4 days to get one day off - this means I have to get up at 5am. I woke up at 4:45 am because Squish decided it would be a great idea to punch or kick the crap out of me. Thank you, little alarm clock. 

    2) It was f*#@ing pouring cats and dogs this morning. I have to walk 1/2 mile from my home to metro stop. I had on my wellies and a giant umbrella. Pants = soaked. Work bag & purse = soaked. 

    3) I have to be in court for a 2pm trial. I hate afternoon dockets. The judges are sleepy and NO BODY wants to be there. 

    4) We're having brussel spouts for dinner. I loathe brussel sprouts, but they are DH's favorite winter veggie. Gross.

  • My MIL is never going to see my kid if she keeps her shit up.  Trying to correct me on why we didn't have my stepkids over the weekend ("they weren't with friends you told cj not to go get them" Ummmm hell no i was pissed they didn't want to come down!!) and what my husband does or does not eat ("cj hates potatoes without lumps in them" um, nope, he won't eat them if there ARE lumps in them) and why we live 30 miles away ("its because you won't move up to this small town because you are a city girl" um, actually, I grew up in a town with less of a population than you have, we won't move because my husband, your son, refuses to drive that far to his job every day).

    It's all really petty shit, like, really petty, I've just had enough.  Especially since his ex-wife, the kids mom, is still "the daughter of my heart" and I can't even rate enough to get called "my son's wife".  I am ready to throw in the towel.  If she wants to see the grandkid(s) she'll have to rely on DH to take him/them up there to see her, and he HATES going to their house because he and his dad do not have a good relationship.  But I'm going to stop going out of MY way to make sure we see them at least once a month, with or without the kids, because I'm tired of never being good enough.

    AUGH.  Thanks. I feel better.  It's not my only bitch for Monday but it's enough for now.

  • My dad called me at 7am this morning to remind me that it's my mom's birthday. DUDE. I am 31 years old. I don't need a reminder call at 7am that it's her birthday.

    And if we're really being honest, I don't care if I forget her birthday. She hasn't called me in over a month. She's supposedly so excited about her first grandchild, yet she can't be bothered to call or even text to ask how I'm doing.

    Also I have the winery's holiday staff party tonight--yes in Feb. I was planning on skipping until a close coworker told me she put in her two weeks. Now I am going to hang out with her. And it's at a skating rink with rock walls lazer tag etc because the winery decided to let the 200+ employees vote on location. Wtf. seriously I just want to go home and sleeeeeep.

  • Yesterday we decided to drive 90 miles for a double date night with another couple. The granny was staying with the two kids in exchange for the couple doing grocery shopping for her while they were in town. So on the way to the movie the granny calls and says that they need to come drive home NOW because she doesn't want to stay with the kids any longer. Aaah! Lady we drove all the way here and now you change your mind?!

  • I had to go in to drink the glucose Kool-Aid today. At my OB's office, the lab tech is upstairs, so they suggested I come in ahead of my appointment, drink the Kool-Aid, have my check-up, then go back for the blood draw. I went in to lab's office, and there were 3 people sitting in the waiting room. I saw the sign in sheet had the last person that signed in list their arrival time as 30 minutes prior. Sure enough, I had to leave and go to my check-up. Check-up was great, LO is as healthy as a horse, and sounds like one on the doppler too!

    I went back up after my check-up and everyone was gone. The tech recognized me from having left earlier (she had just come to the front desk from out back as I was crossing my name off to leave), and I asked her if it was a good time for the glucose 1hr or was she still busy. She had nobody ahead of me, so we got started. Bottoms up!

    She said that all 3 of those people in the waiting room were there with a 4th person who was out back getting her labs done while they were all pacing the very small waiting room, and they ALL had signed in on the list without needing anything done. All 4 of them signed in!!! Plus one of them coughed all over the front desk and the tech (not the one having labs done, one of her groupies), so the tech had to sanitize the whole desk area. We spent several minutes talking about the fact that people don't get it's cold and flu season and that most things are transmittable that way.

    Drank the Kool-Aid, waited the hour in peace while chatting with the tech (she's very nice!), and was finally on my way.

  • Another day, another snow storm here in NY.  I effing hate complaining about winter, but getting the 5:45 call that my DD's school was closed woke me up and ruined my day.  The hubby offered to come home, but I figured I could use him for WEDNESDAY's storm OR next MONDAY...because apparently it is just.going.to.keep.coming.

    And I woke up yesterday and realized that my time to travel is running out, so I have to get trips to Toronto and Cali out of the way in the next few weeks.

    I hate Mondays.
  • At work its a bad time for hours so they cut everyone ... Their great idea is hey let's have the 6 month pregnant lady pick up the slack in the backrooms by having her pick up heavy cases of food all night!
    Great because now after 4 days of this shit I've pulled a muscle in my ribs ... Now it hurts to cough, sneeze l,augh or breathe deep.. along with the peeing I do with some of those thing and the raging heartburn/indigestion makes me a very unhappy person for 9 hours a night!
    I'm pretty sure I shouldn't be lifting 40 plus pounds all night long at this point ( unless I'm into crossfit) ...

  • My only bitch of the day is more snow and then more snow Tuesday into Wednesday and then possibly again this weekend.  Which means placing bets on when they'll actually plow our street and what kind of job they'll do when it plows.  I can't wait til Spring.  but then that means that baby is almost here and I'm not ready for that!
