Sorry @petey1106 ....a better one will come along. Just you wait!
I'm so tired. Between a teething baby, and a H with a terrible hacking cough, I just cannot catch a break! Thankfully, I think we came to an agreement on our house deal so we are all systems go on closing for mid June. We should be in our new place by the beginning of July!
Which leads to my bitch. If someone decides they want a viewing I have to run around like a mad women tidying, pack up all 4 animals, grab the baby and go to my parents. This happens multiple times a day.
My favorite band is on tour. They're not coming to my state.
It's Monday and I don't want to be at work. I also want to take days off and looking at my vacation banks it's depressing. I need someone to donate all their vacation time to me. I don't know how I will be able to save time for baby #2.
Was that enough bitching for one post? ;-)
My bitches:
The spanish language varies greatly from country to country. There are many words my South American inlaws say that mean different things to me and my Puerto Rican family. Many words aren't used in Puerto Rico or vice versa.
Well, the word that my inlaws use for "bottle" is offensive/rude/derogatory in "my" Spanish. I do not want my son saying that. I've asked MH to talk to his parents multiple times and while he has, they continue to say it. The problem is that they watch N 2 days a week. I will seriously be MORTIFIED if when he starts talking he calls his bottle that word. They said it again in front of me on Saturday and MH corrected them, his mother replied: "well, that word isn't offensive to us so I'm not going to stop saying it". Ummm, it's offensive to me!!
I sat DH down Saturday night and told him he needs to have a stern talk to his parents once more. If ever I word I said was offensive to them I would immediately stop using it. Heck, I've learned to use "their words" around them even though they are not words I normally use when talking to my family in Spanish.
I'm just really pissed that they don't stop and don't take me and "my spanish" into consideration. And Lord help me, if N does start calling his bottle that word I'll probably go ape shit Puerto Rican.
Bitch #2: My MIL told MH that for her birthday she wants him to shave off his beard as it makes him "look old". I chimed right in and said "oh, he is NOT allowed to shave that beard. His beard is sexy and I love it". I was already heated over the bottle debate and this just threw me over the edge.
FTR: MH loves his beard and wouldn't shave it anyways, he's also allowed to do whatever he wants in regards to his facial hair
Also, I'm sick and tired of the run around from Doctor's offices. If it's not S's doctors it's mine. Just make the fing appointment already. Why do I run around in circles and jump through hoops to get a referral.
Andplusalso, I just want to go back to bed. I can't but I really want to. It's days like this that working from home are extremely difficult.
@lokilahve - come regulate?
Add me to the list please - apparently I'm "impossible to shop for," so H made me a couple pancakes with ingredients he bought yesterday morning after I had gotten up with LO, fed her, put her back down for a nap, etc., etc., and called it a day. All I wanted was a card or small gift that I could keep in memory of my first Mother's Day. We had words last night - the thought that I have nothing tangible from my first Mohter's Day (other than some photos of LO that I took while DH was gone all afternoon) just really upsets me. Sorry to the other ladies whose Hs couldn't be bothered either.
I spent my first mother's wiping a shitty ass, cooking and cleaning. The same as any other day. I am seriously contemplating planning a spa day for my self for father's day.
My only bitch is that it's Monday. Boo.

Now im curious @V&G101808 ... what is the offensive word for bottle?
If they don't stop then I'm stepping in and I don't care if I have to get rude... its been mentioned enough times. I'm over it.

Yes I agree. It is also offensive here in Mexico...like really? You want your titty? Fuck id die. Hoping they will get some sense and undertand your side. Keeping my fingers crossed for you.
He's trying to kind of make up for it today but not feeling it.
Oh and AF is starting.
And LO isn't feeling well although the doctor said it's probably just teething
Bleh.
ETA- since it was Mother's Day and that was the only day that worked for the godparents until after August, I decided to buy roses and give one to each mom just as a small gesture of appreciation for them coming on "their" day. My good friend overheard MIL telling DH's aunt that I try too hard, aunt agreed and said I must just like the attention. I'm so sick of his damn family.
