    I'm feeling extra stabby and emotional but I'm not sure if I'm overreacting. DH has been working on starting a band and has been out all day with his new friends. He left about 10:30 and now it's 5:40 (so dinner alone I'm guessing?) Then tomorrow he works at 5am, has class, then will be doing more band stuff afterwards...so won't get home until 10/11PM.

    I understand wanting to follow your passion but it's just been hurting my feelings. Yeah, I'm boring now but I don't feel that I deserve to just be left alone all the time and eating dinner by myself. Whenever I bring it up, he gets super defensive and makes it seem like I'm not being supportive. 

    And today he even told me to not call him while he's with the guys unless I know for sure I'm in labor. Because last week, I called him to say I needed the car to take the dog to the vet when she was really sick and he was embarrassed apparently.
    He was always passionate about music when we were dating and playing, which I think is awesome. I just didn't expect it to be like this.

    So here's one for you! I had a friend randomly drop by with her toddler. I really wanted to send her away but I know she drove an hour. Yes, her bad, but whatever I couldn't turn her away.

    Her kid was such a monster and made me so irritated and nervous. She was banging on the baby's swing with dirty cookie hands, she took my entire diaper caddy apart, pulled wipes out of the box, tried to "pat the baby" but it was more like hitting. When I changed him she was standing over him and practlly kicking him. She also stole his paci and put it in her mouth (it's now in the garbage).

    She then took one of our heave coasters and threw it on the coffee table, leaving a big scratch on our table.

    Why would you let your child act like this!?!? I know I don't have a 2 year old yet, but her behavior was totally unacceptable to me, and if Lucas was acting like that we would be out the door.

    It was the most stressful visit ever.

    Hmmmm....I have no clue! But I certainly hope my 2 year old doesn't do this. Didn't the mom bring some of her own toys and stuff for her to do?

    Wtf man! You should have asked no told her that she needs to control her kid in your house. How does she not know that she shouldn't have her two year old causing that kinda trouble while visiting someone's home especially with a new born? She was completely inconsiderate and had it been one of my friends I would have said something. I'm so sorry. That must've put a damper on your day. Especially since you've been turning down visitors. Did she show up unannounced?

    This. Friday I thought I looked pretty with a navy dress and grey open sweater. I was even telling DH how I was so happy my face still looked like my face, when last time I was a chunker. Saturday I woke up and showered and holy hell my face looks five times larger. DH said it looked the same to him. :-S

    After having minimal (for me) contractions every 8-10 mins all week, today they start getting painful and every 3 mins apart again... It's like this kid is just plain against me working. We will see what happens tonight. Either come or don't come, but don't keep making me guess kiddo!

    This has been the strangest day ever. DH got up just after 4 because he couldn't sleep. I got up at 10:15ish so we knew we wouldn't make it to church and didn't bother rushing around. We went back to bed at like 11ish and slept until around 1:45 I think. Then DH worked on making breakfast and I cut pineapple, snacking as I went.
    Cue me barfing up the pineapple, peeing on the floor and upholstered chair in the process.
    Now I feel hungover. Thankfully breakfast was still tasty. DH is showering now and we are gonna hit Costco. Wondering if he will actually be able to sleep tonight after our lazy day...

    That is absolutely unacceptable! I don't even know what else to say to that.
    What did the girls mother do while all this happened?

    Shiiiit I made the mistake of leaving this thread. I'm having like crazy preggo rage at someone who just did that "I'm laughing at all you FTMs saying never..." thing. Fuck off. You know what I know as a STM? If I cared enough about something before I had kids, I made it work. Some things I realized I didn't care enough about to fight, but when I cared, I stuck to my guns. I hate that condescending BS. Gah, and I just broke my own sanity preserving rules about not discussing mommy war crap.
    I have bed shared and co-slept and that statement still made me defensive and ragey. I hate when people make obnoxious comments like that.
    ^^ This. I do it but thats because I'm comfortable with it. But I would never tell another parent/soon to be parent, " never say never" or "just you wait". Just because it works for me doesn't mean it will work for you.

    That is extremely rude and there is no reason for any child to behave that way, especially in someone else's house. Sorry you had to deal with that.

    Smart man.
    Yes but I was more concerned that I also looked like a whale Friday when I thought I was looking good. Pregnancy is such a bitch.

    Making a rack of lamb for dinner. Never done it before... But I love eating lamb and that shit was on sale. I hope it turns out.

    Mmmmmm, lamb. So cute; so tasty.

    DH hasn't cooked for us in a while so I bought him the ingredients to make lamb curry!

    It better happen!

    I woke up with the best intentions today. It was sunny and a balmy 40 I think.

    I started a major clean up of our bedroom! Well the room is clean and mopped but I just moved the unfolded laundry to the hallway... Plus I have the dirty laundry in the hallway... It is a mess! I've only done three loads of laundry....

    Then I walked the dog and now I don't have the energy to put anything away... I felt really productive but I feel like nothing is really done!

    Soo, we have a cat! He's the most friendly, talkative cat...with us. No one else has ever seen him - he hides whenever anyone comes over. He also found a hole in the fabric under the box spring of the bed and likes to sleep in there.  Anyways! We got a new mattress delivered this weekend and when the delivery guys moved the old mattress, the cat was sleeping in the box spring. He kind of rolled out from the bed and onto the floor, frozen in terror.  He was completely frozen stiff on his side, laying on the floor! The delivery guy literally jumped like 10 ft and yelled "IS THAT THING DEAD!?" LOL. DH picked the cat up and was like "What?? No!! We are not hoarders!"

     Sigh, you probably had to be there. But, I can't stop laughing about it!

    That is hilarious! Poor kitty though!

    Hahahahahaha I find this incredibly funny. I'm picturing it like in a sitcom, laughed outloud and then a curious DH wanted to see what was so funny, and he laughed too. Awesome.

    Lamb worked out in the end. Packaging directions lied though. It was in the oven for the stated time and when I cut it apart, it was almost raw. Finished them in a pan and then it was great!

    I felt kindof like a contestant on Chopped. "I've never cooked this before, what do I do? Shit. That didn't work... must save dinner!" Except if I was a chef, I'd know how to cook lamb.

    I realized I just used up all the greek yogurt on the cucumber salad I made though and now I won't be able to make my normal dessert smoothie thing. That's how I get my daily prunes, so I hope I can still poop tomorrow.
    I wouldn't know how to cook that either! Glad it came out well in the end. DH is cooking the lamb curry as we speak. Hopefully it's not so spicy that I can't eat it. Or go into labor ;)

    Good luck with pooping!
