Is it a jerk move for me to not ask the 11 other people in my hallway if they want something when I order Jimmy John's?

I never have cash, so I'm always paying with my debit card. It never fails that I order and someone sees me eating and says "you should have told me, I would have ordered with you!" and I feel like a jerk. My old office was in a hallway with only 1 person who worked PT. It was great. Now I'm in the student services hub area and can't get away with anything without a running commentary.

If that happens just say your husband had it delivered to you. Isn't he the best!

I'm in a meeting that has nothing to do with me and it is DRIVING ME INSANE!

I have so much work to do.

My Confession - I haven't been to the dentist in like 10+ years. DH needs to go for his transplant and we need to take Luci, but I have MAJOR anxiety about it. I will need a Xanax to do it.

Another confession - My daughter has had more fast food than probably any one of your kids and I don't particularly care. She is alive and healthy. Its just where we have been in recent months.

meh - I don't think you should care.

My kids don't eat FF and I get side-eyed... there's no winning when it comes to the world of parenting.

This made me laugh. "He's such a good guy. He knows I'm not feeling up to coming and going and the baby was hungry...he totally surprised me. I love him."

The sheer level of uncertainty in my life right now is giving me massive anxiety. I'm hardly eating or sleeping. Our temporary insurance is completely unreliable. I feel like I need to see a therapist but would probably end up bringing my kids with me. Counter productive much? Ugh. I can't handle my life right now. Suggestions? Go see a therapist by myself. Duh. *whine over*

Do you have any Mother's Day Out programs you can try to align an appointment up with? Or ask someone you like from play group if she wants to switch baby sitting once a week/ every other week so you can both get a few hours to get something done kid free.

I think this is a great idea. I also believe there are a few options out there where therapists will work out some payment plans and so you don't always have to be worried about it being covered by insurance.

These are great ideas. Or can you try to set up an appt when DH can be home with the kids? ((hugs)) uncertainty is hard. Seeing someone to talk to is a great idea.

You guys are so smart. Someday I will have my life together enough to figure this shit out on my own

My kids are super picky. When we go on a week of eating nothing but toast and minuscule amounts of yogurt, I cave to mcdonalds. Whatever.

I just can't get it up to care about what others do. Feed your kids all organic or solely on fast food for all I care. Doesn't matter to me. Just feed your kid.
Same with grocery purchases. I just don't care enough to even look.
