Open Letter Saturday?

With the replies last saturday anyone up for this being a regular thing?

I'll start:

Dear H:
Its cute you think you don't get enough sleep when you are receiving around 8 hours a night. So when i kick you leg over because it is preventing me from falling asleep you need to deal with it.
Sincerely,
Your hormonal pregnant wife.

Dear drivers of America:
Put down the damn cell phone. Your life and everyone else's is too precious to finish that text message.
Thanks,
Concerned citizen who has seen too much heartbreak lately.

  • Dear body,

    It's 5 am on a Saturday, aka your day off. I know you're excited about getting started on painting the nursery today, but you need rest. You cannot be a sicky forever.

    Sincerely,
    Up 3 times in the night to pee.

    Dear boss,

    THANK YOU for being the worlds greatest, and being completely understanding about my needs throughout the last 7 months. Also, the fact that you and your wife are throwing me a goodbye party/shower is so sweet, I had to hold back happy tears.

    Sincerely,
    Your favorite secretary.

  • @laura8388 that's awful! Not to sound totally old but knocking without prior notice at 10pm is incredibly rude to anyone! My neighbor dropped a bottle of wine off last Friday at 8pm (thank you to dh for shoveling his driveway). Dd had just gone down and I was already in bed...the dog went crazy which woke up dd and caused me to haul my huge self out of bed. I was so pissed...but at the same time felt really lame since it was only 8pm! The next day he called and apologized after his wife apparently went nuts on him for coming over before calling with a toddler and pregnant woman in the house!
  • I love the open letters!

    Dear dryer,
    Please stop squeaking and making all my new baby clothes smell like burnt rubber when they first come out.
    -Don't want to rewash

    Dear BabysRUs,
    Please take all my returns without receipts at a good price.
    -Needs a few more things

    I lost my job bc our practice closed when I was 7 months preggs with DD and never intended on staying home- but we budgeted and I did for two years so It was a blessing in disguise. I hope you are able to enjoy some time home with little one before you get a new job! I love working now. Once she turned two work became much less stressful than being at home ; )
  • Dear insurance company,
    Screw you and the horse you rode in on!

    Signed,
    I wonder how you people sleep at night
  • Dear husband,

    Love,
    Your sleep deprived, dreaming of DD wife

  • Dear H's job,

    Fuck you.  He came home last night and went RIGHT back to work until 5am. You heard me.  5 am.  Probably later.  He got 1.5 hours of sleep before YOU made him get up to do more work.  And he's working now. It is SATURDAY, and I haven't seen him all week.  I can do most of the stuff I need to do without him, but I can count the number of baby-free weekends we have left on my fingers and I'd like to spend TIME with him.

    Signed,
    A pissed off, lonely wife


    Dear heartburn,

    GTFU.  I hate you.

    Signed,
    The pregnant lady who has been dealing with you since first tri and can no longer find relief.


    Dear LO,

    I love feeling you move, especially after yesterday's fall, but could you let Mommy get just a COUPLE of hours of uninterrupted sleep?  I know between you and the heartburn it probably won't happen, but please?  Pretty please?

    Love,
    Mommy


    Dear Olympics,

    Thank you for giving me something to watch on mute so I can at least be near DH while he's working.

    Signed,
    Me


    RIP Dr. Irving Fishman - 10/1/19-7/25/10 - thank you for holding on for me.
    You made my wedding day complete.

  • Dear MIL, Please learn how to text. Your phone has a keyboard, so there is no need to type c u 2 instead of real words. And there has got to be an option for punctuation somewhere in that phone! While your at it, stop texting to say I shouldn't work in the crappy weather. It's been a shitty winter, but if I don't go to work then I don't have a job anymore. Much love, Your irritable DIL
  • Dear Time,
    Please fly. I am not having fun right now.

    Sincerely,
    Tired of Being Pregnant


    Dear H,
    I know you're sick, and I'm sorry, but please learn to blow your nose instead of sniffling all the time. Oh, and if you could stop stealing all the blankets from me in the middle of the night, I would appreciate that, too.

    Love,
    Your Frozen Bride


    Dear Roommate,
    I am about 0.2 seconds away from decapitating you and/or breaking your computer. Please discover the wonderful things called "headphones", before I go BSC on you.

    Dear Landlord,
    HURRY UP ALREADY. I want to get out of this shitty little place where my name isn't even on the lease, and start getting my home ready for my baby! I know you're new at your job, but get your sh!t together, man!

  • Dear DH,
    Thank you for shoveling the huge amount of snow/ice from the driveway and walkway and cleaning it off the cars. Even knowing more is coming this afternoon.

  • @anonymousmotherofone  One day when all of the king sized blankets and sheets were dirty we made up the bed with two sets of full size sheets and blankets, one on his side and one on my side (we still used a king fitted sheet).  Best idea we ever had - no more fighting over the blankets!  For appearances' sake (if you care about such things) you can always throw a properly sized coverlet over the top of the whole mess.

  • @kaking That actually sounds like a genius idea, thank you! We just washed our sheets the other day, so I'll have to wait until next time, but for now I'll just have an extra blanket on my side for when he decides to hog the blankets!

    We live in Arkansas now, not upstate New York.  Go away.

    Dear coworkers,

    At first I felt embarrassed for how solicitous you all were being by sparing me a lot of nuisance work by handling all of the projects that won't end until May.  With five weeks left to go I'm really appreciating it.  You all are the best!

    Sincerely,

  • Dear McDonalds,
    I have been talking about damn shamrock shakes for at least a month. The fact that I finally talked DH into driving me to get one and you tell me the shake machine is broken is not sitting well with me. You are lucky that there are two McDonalds in this city!

  • Dear husband,

    Thank you for sticking to your word and going with me to pick out flooring for our boys' room! And double thank you for surprising me and installing it TODAY!

    Love,
    Your greatful wife


    Dear DS,

    Please stop screaming EVERY TIME dad turns on the table saw. You should be used to the noise by now.

    Love,
    Mommy with a splitting headache
  • Dear House,

    Please stop throwing us curveballs that have cost us more than $5K in additional materials cost than we had planned. We only have 6 or so weeks till this baby is here and would really like to get all this done.

    Sincerely,
    A fed up homeowner

    Dear Friends,
    Thank you, thank you, thank you for giving up your weekends for the past few months to help DH and I. We appreciate you more than you know and would be lost without you.

    Love and gratitude,
    DH and I

    Dear DH,

    Thank you for putting up with my freak outs over spending more than we had alloted. I know that you want that new shot gun and I was hoping to get it for you for valentine's day, but it to going to have to wait. You deserve it for all that you do and I will make it happen as soon as I humanly can.

    Love,
    Frustrated and feeling broke wife
  • Dear DH,

    I'm truly sorry that you ate something that upset your stomach. However, contrary to what your moaning and groaning indicates, you are not going to die. I'm not certain that we needed to cancel all of our afternoon plans when you are working tomorrow and we only have a handful of weekends together pre-baby left, so that you can take a nap bc your tummy hurts. If I canceled plans every time I didn't feel well I would never do anything, much less work 50+ hrs/wk. Wake up please, so we can hang out and do what we had planned!

    Love,
    Your hurting, aching, uncomfortable every day wife

    Dear Facebook friend,
    Please stop live blogging your pregnancy, especially if all of the posts are going to be extremely self-righteous. If a fellow pregnant woman is annoyed, I can guarantee all of your other friends are even less tolerant.
    Love,
    Your friend who is also super pregnant but doesn't feel the need to tell the world about every symptom and development on a daily basis

  • Dear Sweet LO,

    Please go head down and stay there for the rest of your cozy stay that lasts at least 3 but no more than 6 weeks.

    Love,
    Your severely uncomfortable and scared of a c section mama

    Dear DS,

    Thank you for being totally awesome at swim lessons and just hanging out while I got changed. You are definitely improving your chances of getting to go back the next 3 weeks!

    Love,
    Your oversized mother who already has issues dressing herself without watching a 2 year old

    Dear M14,

    Quit talking about donuts! DH brought me home 2 on Thursday and I bought 4 more today. I'm already gaining too much weight lately and this isn't helping!

    Love,
    A sugar overloaded aLsMay

    Dear insurance,

    Thanks for being awesome only when you have large claims. Next year I will hate you but this year, since I've reached my max out of pockets in Jan, I will enjoy going to the chiro for free 59 more times this year!

    Love,

  • Dear puppy,
    I know DH is gone and you are on full guard dog duty, but I think I will be okay going to the bathroom by myself. I promise you, that's the only place I'll be getting up to go the entire evening beside laying on the couch. And You are going to tire yourself out if you follow me there every 20 minutes.
    Love,
