Thanks freckles for the confidence boost. I am going at this one more time and then I'm throwing in the towel.

I'm so sorry you are going through this. I just want to say you sound so strong. Remember to stay strong and do what you gotta do!

@melleasndrs‌ I am sorry you are going through this. My husband is an alcoholic and addict and is very active in AA (he chooses not to be anonymous). He has not had a drink in over 5 years but every day is difficult. I strongly encourage you to go to al-anon and encourage him to go to meetings. And as tough as it is support him when he is doing well, and walk when he falls. My H is an amazing man, and to be honest, all of the sacrifice has been worth it to help him get clean and stay clean.

Good luck and hugs to you.

I have not shaved in over a week. I am avoiding a pedicure just because I don't want to shave.

@Skrittens‌ Thanks hun. Oh and I am right there with you on the shaving thing! Screw that mess.

Wait let's talk about these different flavors of macaroons...

There was key lime, piña colada, pink lemonade, and orange creamsickle. They were all delicious :-) but I think pink lemonade was my favorite.

Also, good for you for having 3!

My FFFC: I think I'm ready to go back to work PT, but my disability pay is so close to what I make working FT, that it's hard to bite the bullet. I don't want to abuse the system, and I do feel bad that I'm not the only one who's paying the premiums I'm now drawing from, but at the same time I know lots of other employees who have gone on disability or "stress leave" for much longer and for much less reason. My doc hasn't even suggested going back to work yet, but I still feel guilty

I do miss my job and my coworkers, but if I'm getting paid more on FT disability than I would make for PT work, where's the incentive? You can say it: I'm a lazy moocher.

You think you're ready or you ARE ready?

My FFFC is: it drives me crazy how many people say nauseous instead of nauseated. I didn't notice as much before I was pregnant, but now I hear and read it every day. I love the wine idea! I guess my other FFFC is that I will probably drink a small amount of wine later in my 2nd and 3rd tri.

This is a very good question. I guess if it's a question at all, maybe I'm not. But on the other hand, maybe I just need to rip off the bandaid? I don't know, I'm really confused/conflicted about it.

@wishiwasprego (and everyone stocking up on wine) can I interest you in a bottle of THIS? It's amazing. And @wishiwasprego, not sure how far you are from Michigan (even though I know you've said you're not terribly far from Chicago, so I assume not too bad) but you can day trip to this winery/brewery and try it. It's UH-MAY-ZING.</blockquote

Pst. Once we'll figure out that we're not old men in basements and know each other a little better, I totally live near a really great wine trail in Michigan. Party at Lola's whoop whoop!

Granted it's not like Traverse City wine good but it's still pretty good.

melleasndrs · September 2014

@wonknessmonster‌ No I haven't done that for myself. I am currently looking into it. Maybe if I go he would go.

I absolutely refuse to admit to my bf the fact that being pregnant is causing me to develop "pregnancy hormones" and that some of my attitude issue lately have probably been due to that which now that I think about it sounds insane cuz this is about the only time you can act like a complete bitch and have a legitimate excuse to blame it on anyway I dunno if im trying to fight them or trying to be proud or what not but anytime my bf says something to me about being hormonal or bitchy cuz im pregnant I blow up even worse than whatever it is that he was saying I was being hormonal about wtf????? Lol

NO. Also your lack of punctuation is atrocious.

For real, I was waiting for a period or comma so I could take a breath. I guess they don't teach grammar in prison. ::shrug::
