Dirt Road Anthem

Re: Dirt Road Anthem

  • Update: the baby was alive and well but they cannot tell me what heck is going on why I'm bleeding. They called it a threatened miscarriage so DH is all upset and thinks the baby is going to be lost. I'm hopeful but being very careful. Thanks to everyone I tried to love tit you all but my phones acting up and I feel like shit

    I'm glad the baby is looking good. Hopefully the bleeding clears up soon, I know how scary that can be.

  • I'm watching 4 kids at one of the casinos for a friend of the people I babysit for. They are freaking wild. Now i see why the pay is so high. To top it off my stomach hurts. Not nauseous but hurts, it's so uncomfortable.
  • Cranky and nauseated, my lovely husband offered to pick up some food for dinner. I happily took him up on his offer and asked for Pho. Fast forward to me discovering that it had three measly quarters of a meatball, sprouts that were brown, no hoisin sauce and half of the broth spilled into the bag because the lid wasn't on tight. Cue internal pregnant tantrum. Poor dh could see that I was roiling inside so he kept asking me if it was good and telling me he loved me. I don't know where I am going with this but he is sweet and I'm never ordering from that place again.

    That's a crime. Pho is one of my favorite meals



    IKEA was a massive fail. They didn't have my dresser or Jens rug. @FrecklesInside‌ we may be coming to new haven. I'll pm you when I get home !

    You guys. They are serving cheeseburgers buffet style at this wedding. I took one bite of mine and almost puked.

    They also had macaroni and cheese, it tasted like something you'd buy in bulk already cooked, from a food supplier.

    I'm trying really hard not to be a snob, but...meh. I'm a snob. Pregnant lady needs some better shit to eat.

    This happened to me at a wedding once (not pregnant) and I wanted to cry. I felt like I was going to starve. Booooooo!
    It seriously sucks. I might stop at McDonald's on my way home, that's how bad the food is.

    I'm ready to leave already and they literally just cleared our plates.

    It doesn't help that I hate the guy getting married and I don't know his bride. He gave me a hug earlier and I'm pretty sure it was because he felt like he had to. They didn't include my name on the invitation or the place cards. So. Fucking. Classy.

    I'm a huge wedding snob. For the amount of money it costs me to go to a wedding, especially when I have to stay overnight- you better host me right. We went to a wedding last month with a 3 hour delay between ceremony and reception. I felt so sick cause I was starving so we had to go to a bar down the street so I could scarf down a burger. I shouldn't have to do that when I'm forking out over $350 for the event.

  • I am just catching up between naps...so tired this week!

    @cafecreme‌ - I am so very sorry. I use dinner a'fare (not sure the exact spelling - but there is a website if you search online) for meal delivery. The meals are prepared and delivered frozen but not cooked - and it takes minutes to unwrap the meals and usually then just heat in the oven. I know there are places in several states but the company will ship nationwide. I still order from the location I used in GA and they ship with dry ice up to NY. We also use beetnik - again the food is shipped frozen and we just heat it up. I highly recommend both.

    @meladoriestar‌ - I am thinking of you and praying for your mom and your family.

    @cinderella105‌ - I am so sorry. My heart aches for you. Both my best friend and mother in law went through similar situations as you describe - and by leaving the men both became successful in their own right and their children admit to life being so much better after as well. I know this probably won't make it feel better at this time - but taking care of yourself right now is the most important - and by doing that you are doing the best for your children. Hugs. And I am so proud of you for taking the steps to help yourself.

  • Ok @meowkitten‌ -I am so jealous of the pretzel pizza. I thought I was in heaven with a grilled ham and Swiss on pretzel bread but now I feel a big empty space...

    And my cats are also very aware of my pregnancy. They a snuggle with me and bunt against my bump. One sits on it - I say she is trying to help hatch little Rooblet - it is the cutest thing!

    @SNLT1012‌ yeah... One time it was in bfe Wyoming and I thought I was going to starve since nothing was open afterwards. The second time was actually my BFF and she like lost her mind and forgot that we keep kosher. So there was pork in everything. Even the corn bread.

    Uhhh.... Thanks? So we ended up at sonic that night RIGHT before it closed.

    We literally bent over backwards to accommodate all of our guests and make sure they had enough food. To the point that we made our own apps for pre pre cocktail hour because we couldn't afford to buy them through the caterer. Then cocktail hour then dinner. We had three meal options plus super kosher option plus one friend who is insanely celiac so she had a special meal. It was a pain in the ass but everyone (except me) was full at the end of the night. :)

    This is exactly how I would do my wedding. Guests pay an arm and a leg to come and they need to be treated right. None of the weddings I've been to in the past few years have been remotely close to nice.

    And @wendyld‌ yes. They did not put my name on the invitation. S and I have been together 4 years (2 years longer than the bride and groom, btw), we own a home together, we've been together through a deployment and the loss of our son. But my name wasn't on the invitation. SN and guest.

    Thank you for the suggestion. I ended up using one that someone else recommended. I might end up shipping more, so maybe I'll try the ones mentioned above.

  • @SNLT1012‌ there's some stupid etiquette rule about not listing a guests name unless they're married. It makes no sense. We wrote the persons SO name on the invitation because uh, if they're close enough to be invited to our wedding then we obviously know their name. The etiquette board on TK will make your head explode
  • Hm. Thanks @janda426‌. I definitely don't know the etiquette rules but if that's proper etiquette it makes me feel better. I thought the rule was if you're inviting a couple that lives together both names go on the invite.

    I think that was the argument on TK. One side said just put the names on the invite and the other was all strict etiquette says not to unless they're married. Some people took it even further and tried to say you don't even have to invite a guest if they aren't married. That got shot down immediately.
