Re: FFFC
... but I totally soaked up all of H's sad apologies this morning when he realized his snoring sent me away...
My FFFC is that after seeing everyone's awesome tattoos and reading the stories and meanings behind them, I hate mine even more! I only have two that are 10+ years old and mostly hidden but I really wish I didn't have either.
I'm starting not to like the person my sister is becoming. She's been so selfish lately or maybe its just me. She wants two families to travel 6 hours and more for some of us to the beach to see her wedding. Its not actually a wedding its just the ceremony, there won't even be chairs for anyone to sit down, I guess we are suppose to sit in the sand? we are going to listen to her say I do before the JOP. There's no reception, NO CAKE, they aren't even including anyone in the wedding. We have to spend money we don't have for a hotel room for one night and gas there and back. Meanwhile I'll be 31 weeks pregnant in the middle of July with a 22 month old that can't sit still for 10 minutes let alone 6 hours, she's going to be all over the place. Now she's had my shower scheduled for over a month now and wants to reschedule BC her soon to be husband has a business meeting the day of my shower that she can't even attend she just wants to go shopping. My shower is 4 weeks before i schedule my csection, it cant be moved back one week bc it would give me 3 weeks to prepare whats left for DS. He may decide to come early. So she's thrown the shower to my mom which is fine with me but she's blowing me off to go shopping and expects everyone to pick up where she left off. It just rubs me the wrong way.
I'm sorry I think this is more of a vent
However with my monthly bills, this $500 etc, Im stretched to the limit at the end of the month when I really dont need to be.
We talked about once the baby comes, me finally going over to that account or at least having access to it. Otherwise if I need some extra cash he has to go to the ATM and take it out for me haha

I grew up in this same boat. Terrible teeth and no insurance. There was no state insurance option, either. What my mom did was negotiate with the dentist to pay only what they'd get from a patient with insurance, and over a 12 month period. Hopefully you can find someone willing to work with you!

DD due September 1, 2014
We have an ultrasound scheduled for tomorrow. We have to go for growth measuring ultrasounds once a month.
Ive always been team green. The curiosity to know what the baby is is for sure there for me. DH has wanted to know from the beginning, but knows he couldnt keep the secret from me if he found out and I didnt know.
Ive decided to find out the sex of the baby tomorrow. DH will be happy, some of our family will be happy, some will be bummed. But we will know who this little one is and finally settle on a name and get cracking on the nursery (even though we are doing mostly a neutral room).
Im excited for sure, but a part of me is worried that I will be bummed that I found out and I didnt go team green till the end. Especially seeing this is our first and last baby.

I wouldn't have a shower if it was offered, I declined and they insisted. So I'm going to let them do it, BC they got pissed that I declined and said I had nothing for this baby since he's a boy and I only have girl things. And about the vows, if she thought about our great grandmother who 98 and how she is going to roll her walker through the sand and have chairs for us all to sit in and we were staying for more than a one day trip of driving and seeing her say her vows staying the night and driving back the next morning and we could actually plan to do things maybe like swim in the ocean, then I would change about my opinion. I'm going and I'm supporting her vows but I'm definitely bitching about it. She's 21 years old has a 2 year and has only known this guy for 6 months, he paid for the divorce that just came through last month and they were only separated for a year. She's in such a rush to get married and go on a honeymoon while both of them pawn their kids off on whoever will take them. She doesn't know this guy very well and I suppose to spend money I don't have to drive 6 hours to hear I do sleep in a hotel and drive another 6 hours home. I've never been to the beach and this is not how I want my first time or DDs first time to be.

I had a tooth extracted last pregnancy, but I had to wait for the implant until after my pregnancy. It was painful but not too bad after the first day or so I was fine.
If you can't afford to go then don't go, explain the situation and ask if she would be upset if you guys celebrated when she got back. I don't mean to sound rude I just think your looking at the situation from the wrong angle it's her day and if that's what she wants then she should do it and not think about what's more convenient for others.
S14 August Siggy Challenge.....ALL OF THE ALCOHOLS
1) I'm getting more and more irritated with DH for not telling his coworkers that we're expecting. It just feels like he's not excited at all and trying to hide it. I mean, he could at least tell the 2 women who he's really close to...I keep telling him that their feelings will be hurt if they find out after the fact...especially with the personal stuff that they share with him.
2) My skin is so dry and sore, I haven't showered since Tuesday night. I've been taking a "whore's bath" but I just can't bring myself to get in the shower.
I understand everything adds up, I hope you see I wasn't trying to be harsh I just wanted you to see though other side which is hard to do sometimes. I realize I don't know the full story but you can figure it out so everyone is happy
I feel this way about my dang dog. He JUST started this jumping crap and he weighs 80 lbs. I feel so bad yelling at him but COME ON!

That stupid letter was hand delivered to me in THREE hours. Don't mess with the pregnant lady's benefits, yo.
@softsoprano thank you for seeing my point, it actually makes me feel better that I'm not the only one who thinks that. And the vows are to be done at 6 pm and we are going to dinner at an expensive restaurant, that's all, then we leave the next morning.
@aliciak316 I think hormones make everything worse than they are. It all just started piling up and I had a small meltdown
Second showers aren't necessarily frowned upon in this area but I've never been to one and don't really want to be the first. Plus, I do feel bad asking people to give us duplicate gifts 3 years later. Even if I had a shower, we'd probably get a bunch of girl clothes - the only thing I don't need since we've received a ton of hand me downs! :-)

The potential outcomes vary by state, in the case of divorce or in the case of death. In PA, in the case of divorce, a lot of factors come into play and how this issue is handled even varies by county. Where a spouse's death is concerned, you save yourself a huge headache and tax liability if your house is jointly titled with right of survivorship (tenants by the entireties, for those married). Mortgage titling is not relevant to that particular part of the issue; it's who has ownership rights to the asset (not the debt) that matters. When we purchased our home only MH was put on the mortgage because I was incurring student loans w/very little income but I made sure my name was on that title to protect myself JIC.

Maybe I worded that wrong. We are going to eat at restaurant, my sister is not going to be there she did however make the reservations. We were told we could cancel them but her fiancés family thought it would be rude. So I guess its a dinner for the families? Just not including bride and groom.
I will happily match people with similar post counts.
Flash forward to when I told my boss I was expecting in Feb. We talked about our previous convo, hes all good with it.
Flash forward to this week. All the suddent hes not so sure its going to work out and said he was going to talk to the other bosses and see. Im freaking out as day care 2 days a week (we have the other 3 taken care of) is an extra $1000 a month here. That $1000 a month is pretty much what we put in savings. Yeah....DH was NOT happy when he heard that, and my pregnancy hormones have me sitting around crying about pinching pennys and thinking about my LO sitting in day care.
