FFFC: Laugh with the Sinners, Don't Cry with the Saints!

Stina2012 · June 2014

What's going on ladies?

Stina2012 · June 2014

My new favorite show is Little Women LA. It's about six women who are dwarves on Lifetime. I will pretty much watch anything with reality drama.

Stacey099 · June 2014

I have no idea what this IOXNDB(initials are wrong) show is everyone is talking about.

My SIL asked me if I was pregnant again last weekend. I have a horrible body image, so that def knocked me down. She's not the type to ask something rude like that, so I'm sure it has to do with the fact that my fat has migrated from my hips to my belly for some reason. Anyway, my FFFC is I have such crappy self esteem that I went out and bought healthy food and convinced my friend to join my gym to be my accountability partner. All great steps, but totally wrong motivation

This might actually belong in spam...but whatever I've typed it out already!

jemasa33 · June 2014

@summerandmatt‌ That was shitty of her to ask you that. I am sorry. If you are unhappy with you body, it is good that you are taking steps to feel better about yourself I had horrible body image issues after ds1 and looking back, I looked great in every picture.we always tend to have a skewed view of ourselves. I am sure you look great!

Stacey099 · June 2014

>:D< @summerandmatt‌ It's great that you have someone to join you at the gym! Hopefully you can be motivated by you and not your SIL.

My lunch today will consist of peppermint cremes and watermelon. Don't feel like cooking.

jemasa33 · June 2014

I have been asking SD to clean up after herself over and over again and she either does it half assed or just doesn't EVERY TIME. Yesterday I asked her to put her stuff away and she didn't. I decided to take the cotton candy she left out (among so many other things) and to feed it to my two year old as an incentive every time he used the potty.

We just started OITNB! Orange is the New Black. @Stacey099‌

I think I'm going to like it but I'm still suffering from Breaking Bad ennui.

Ahh! Yes ok. DH watches OITNB. And we're 5 episodes away from finishing Breaking Bad. I can tell it's gonna be weird however they end it.

I picked up extra large bottles of both rum and gin for my beach trip and 2 bottles of wine. I think I'll be BUTI a lot next week.

The wine didn't make it... drank it already :P

stephyfaith · June 2014

Last night I got irrationally mad at DD for her constant wake ups.

I didn't yell at her or anything, but I feel bad for being mad at her when she's just being a baby. I think it's just sleep deprivation taking its toll.

[Deleted User] · June 2014

@stephyfaith‌ I loved that for support. I haven't slept in like... almost a year.

Stacey099 · June 2014

@stephyfaith‌ I felt the same way two nights ago when G wouldn't just fall asleep. He would scream bloody murder and then giggle while pulling on my face. Back and forth. I was so fed up and also mad at myself. Babies are tough! >:D<

I only dress my child if we're leaving the house. He usually wears just a diaper all day.

Oh, my god, yes!!!!!(exclamation needed). I'm slightly addicted to this show and dh is convinced I need to get out more.

It's amazing how any group of people can have drama. I mean, J13 would be a great reality show most days!

We have been slowly packing up things in anticipation of hopefully selling our house soon. Yesterday I was working on the attic. A little mouse poked his head out and scared the poop out of me. Went to the store and bought a mouse trap, set it, and went to bed. Checked this morning, and the entire trap is GONE. Like completely vaporized. How does this happen? Mother lovin' mouse....

Dude...that's one badass mouse! My DH would have screamed like a girl if he came across a mouse in the attic, lol!

sparkymcgeee · June 2014

I have a few.

1. Yesterday I walked around with a hole in the butt of my pants all day. Didn't know it was there until I got to work so I was aware all day. I was pulling my shirt down a LOT. Thankfully it was up at the top by the pocket.

2. I realized I'm a complete control freak this week. I know this now because my daughter is taking swim lessons.

2(a). I'm sad for my daughter because the rest of the kids in the class are like family friends or something. My kid is the only kid in the class of six that doesn't have a friend taking the class with her.

(

3. I received an RSVP to Isaac's party saying the family couldn't come because they'll be out of town. Secretly I'm glad. I didn't order quite enough cupcakes and there are six people in their family.

4. I gave my babysitter the cash my mom gave me for my birthday today because I forgot to go to the ATM. Womp Womp.

gutsymama · June 2014

I'm feeling weirdly sentimental about Ivy. I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm 1000000% glad the line is gone, but anytime someone is like, "bah, good riddance, what a bitch" I'm like, "bu..bu..but....Ivy!" She saved his life every single day for the last year. It's like that sister that you can't stand but you kind of feel guilty about hating her, and nobody better talk bad about her because family.

I think I've spent way too much time talking about Ivy like a real person.

thegoodpotato · June 2014

@mimi4347‌ have you seen the movie 'Lars and the Real Girl'? For some reason your post about Ivy reminded me of it.

This guy starts carrying this mannequin around and pretending it's his girlfriend (I think his wife died or something and he went a little fruit loops). The entire town gets in on it and the mannequin develops this whole life that they make up.

I won't give it away if you haven't seen it, but I kind of feel like you would relate to the sentiment.

It's a REALLY good movie.

stephyfaith · June 2014

Thanks for all the support ladies. It's so nice knowing there are others who feel the same and are going through similar stuff. It usually doesn't get to me as much, but for some reason I was having a really hard time falling asleep last night and every time I did, she would wake up. I would seriously kill for one night with no wake ups and the ability to sleep as long as I want. Maybe in 18 years?? :P

Hugs to all the sleep deprived mamas.

sparkymcgeee · June 2014

I don't feel like I've slept soundly in four years. This may be one of the reasons why I'm done having kids. I miss sleeping through the night.

lancomechica · June 2014

I ugly cried last night watching Vinny sleep knowing he turns 11 months today. I am not handling this well. I am crying now. I am going to have to invest in waterproof mascara and eyeliner (which I hate) if this keeps up.

I want to be back on vacation. Work and school are for the birds.

I am taking a "half day" and getting a massage later...I am using that as an important appointment to get out of a meeting.

@Stina2012 the sinners are much more fun!!

lancomechica · June 2014

Hugs @stephyfaith I think I got irrationally mad recently when V would not hold still when I was trying to change him. It wasn't like I yelled at him or grabbed him tightly or anything but I was mad...like "WTF baby!! Lets get our ish together!" I try to never be like that because of the slippery slope.

We were at our family reunion the other weekend and my cousin yelled at her kid who is like 6 and wasn't doing anything bad and told him to "Shut your damn mouth and sit your ass down NOW!!" Poor kid. He was so embarrassed...you could tell. He was around new family he has never met and wanted to play with the babies. He wasn't causing a ruckus or anything. I don't want to ever be THAT mom.

@BetsyD2010‌ I could have written that myself. DH is super hands on and a great dad. But he knows I'm always bringing up the rear and double checking everything. I'd love to know what that feels like.

When dh and I bicker I sometimes get mad and tell him that I'm jealous of his life and it must be nice to be him. I'd love to know what it's like to have someone clean my house, do all the laundry ( wash, fold, put away), cook for me, organize and keep track of the schedule, all important parenting duties.... Like geez, he has it good.

stephyfaith · June 2014

@lancomechica‌ I definitely do not want to be that parent that yells and humiliates their kid! Yikes. Sometimes we just need a reminder that this too shall pass and everything will be ok.

lancomechica · June 2014

missymr said:

@lancomechica‌ She said that to a six year old? Yeah is be judging that pretty hard. Regardless of the behaviour if the kid that would get a definite judge from me.

Yes...I think he is 6...maybe 5. He is young. Like going from Kindergarten to first grade.

I will admit I was judging hard and so was my sister. My dad was like "Well everyone parents differently...maybe they think your way is weird". Love my dad but he always has to throw some kind of..."don't think you are better than other people" thing in there.

That happened to me once. Except it turns out I actually had rats so the mouse traps I bought weren't effective enough. I had caught a few, then once when I heard the trap snap, I went down saw that I caught another one, but was waiting for DH to come home before I disposed of it. When I went down later there was no rat, no trap, and a bloody trail. I never did find it, even after we moved and emptied out the basement. @-)

I imagine that his rat freinds came and hauled him away for a proper rat burial.

queenbone · June 2014

I have to do a Father's Day do over tomorrow. We went out with my BFF and her husband for their anniversary last Saturday and I drank way too much. The next morning I was too hung over to make breakfast in bed, or change diapers, or take care of the kids at all. Instead I vomitted and went back to bed. A-hole of the year over here.

Fortunately I was very good at observing Father's Day Eve, if you know what I mean ::wink wink nudge nudge:: so he wasn't too mad at me.

thegoodpotato · June 2014

I am already into the irrationally angry portion of the pregnancy. And now I want to cry for no reason (because I know I shouldn't be mad?).

Honestly, the hormone roller coaster has never hit me this hard before. It's like the logical portion of my brain is telling me I'm being stupid, and my brain just doesn't care.

DH and Nikita are just setting up camp for her first camping trip...I secretly hope shes the same sassy little thing she is at home...just so DH has 2 days in my shoes. And thats only 1 kid. He will have his hands full with her in general as shes afraid of just about everything.

I can hear an echo in here.... echo in here.... echo... echo... echo

EagleWife · June 2014

Hi everybody. I read Black Betty spam a lam from yesterday today off and on during work and just now caught up on today's spam. I really need to get deep into my classwork because I have a short paper due at midnight tonight. I. Have. Zero. Motivation.

(

This is the class that I dropped out of last term and now I really need to kick it in high gear.

But hugs to all the mamas that need them this week.

>:D<

And my eye twitch just started up. Ugh.

I just got back from an outdoor beer garden/pier party type place with some mom friends. I poured two cups of sangria into my water bottle for a roadie :>

FFFC: I have a ridiculously giant pile of laundry covering my bed that I need to fold, instead I just pushed it to the side so I could lay down and take a nap. So I am currently laying next to a giant clothes mountain. Hope it doesn't topple over and smother me in my sleep!

I do that ALL the time.

merc5411 · June 2014

I have a question.... When you block someone does it stop you from seeing their posts or stop them from seeing your posts? Is blocking someone the same as "putting someone on a post-it"?

I stopped for a quick check at my favorite loft store (had to pass it for the meeting) and bought all the things without looking at price tags at all. 2 dresses, 3 skirts, 1 shorts, 1 dress pants, 5 casual tops, 2 dressy tops, 2 scarves, 1 necklace. It was 40% + 20% off. Still, I always read tags and calculate and worry. I just piled it up and tried not to look. This is only my second pp shopping trip. The other was in September and involved 3 tops and 2 skirts. Lots of navy. Guess that's the thing.

I think we have the same stripey dress. I have to wear mine with a push-up bra under it, though, because otherwise I look too flat in it. Kind of negating the "breezy summer" look I bought it for.
