So a few weeks ago my brother's new girlfriend told my mother how she likes to sew and how she wishes she had a sewing machine and my mother said, oh we have one that we aren't using and gave it to her. I found out about this recently and I became pissed because it was my sewing machine that grandmother gave me, it is an antique, and I broke it-- hence why I hadn't used it for years. I am mad that they would give away something of mine without asking me and since it is broken, what is she going to do with it? Since it is an antique I imagine it would be more difficult to find parts to replace the broken ones. She doesn't understand the value to me because they made it seem like it was some unwanted thing just sitting around. So now my brother is afraid I am going to tell his girlfriend that I want it back when I meet her on Christmas Day. My brother and my mother are being really overprotective of her and don't want to hurt her feelings. Days have passed and I am still mad, I am probably being irrational but I don't care. Since clearly they aren't going to say anything to her about it, I think I am, but I am going to try to do it in the nicest way possible-- which probably isn't going to come off too nice given how mad I am. But I think it is better to be honest then to give her dirty looks and inevitably come off as less than friendly when I meet her without any explanation.

TLDR My mother gave my brother's girlfriend my broken antique sewing machine that I got from my grandmother without asking me and I am pissed.

I'd be mad too, I'm very sentimental, and would ask for it back. However, your mom was in the wrong not the girlfriend. No need to take it out on the girlfriend, I'm sure she'll understand!

ITA... And there's no reason it should "hurt her feelings". It's nothing personal to say "hey, they forgot that actually belongs to me and was passed down from my grandmother. Do you mind if I have it back?"

suzysurparis · December 2014

@ilovelucyv that sucks, my mom does that kind of stuff a lot. You're best bet is to approach the girlfriend nicely and ask in such a way that does not blame her at all (and try not to throw too much shade on your mom, the girlfriend might like her). Something like, "It's nice to meet you, I have something kinda odd I'd like to ask you. You know the sewing machine my mom gave you? Well actually that was a gift from my grandma to me and I was hoping you might be willing to let me have it back. But if you want, I could teach you how to sew with another machine/give you some sewing patterns,etc." Most people will give it back without a problem, and if you can, buy her a cheapy starter sewing machine (save the receipt) for Christmas and teach her on that.

My mom just outed me on FB. Since I posted pictures of flowers that she sent for my birthday she replied "Happy birthday my Prego daughter! May your Day be fun (and your pregnancy be easy)"

I wouldnt have even posted the flowers if I didnt know how much Facebook validation means to her. Fuck that, I deleted those posts. Just on the basis of grammar. I dont care if people saw them, I cant stand being called pasta sauce. Fuck her craziness.

ashelcole · December 2014

I can't stand co-workers that come in sick (with a fever) saying they can't miss a day of work because they need the money. Then they proceed to tell you about all the money they spent last weekend going shopping and eating out and getting their hair done. Get some priorities and don't tell me that I just need to stay away from you for the day.

LadySif · December 2014

@suzysurparis Happy birthday! That sucks your mom outed you. Hope you caught it early enough. My BIL outed us when we got engaged so with DS and now again (I did it yesterday!) we change our FB settings for a while so nobody can post on our walls. We'll change it back eventually and maybe some people will get annoyed but IDGAF.

suzysurparis · December 2014

@LadySif, thank you. I just cant believe how outrageously she did it and one of her friends (that I dont even know) immediately commented on it: "Congratilation [my mom] to you on your daughters bithday and being soon grandma again." (not a native English speaker). I'd change my settings but I'm getting the birthday flood so I might as well ignore it. No good will come of me furthering this discussion with my mom.

WifeDeAngel · December 2014

I had a chest cold last week, which included a lot of coughing/peeing myself. Just as I start to feel better this week, I wake up all congested and feeling like crap again. I've already snissed this morning. I need to get healthy because we're going to Colombia on the 26th, and I can't see traveling internationally with a toddler and a cold.

apeschka · December 2014

I woke up on the wrong side of the damn bed. My kid kept me up all night Literally 5 hours of broken crappy sleep, my husband said he would take our kid to daycare when he got home from night shift at 730 and got home an hour late so I took kiddo and cleaned and called work and said I'm not coming in because if I do I will pour hot coffee on any chipper f***er that I see. Seriously crabby.

Stormy61 · December 2014

@threearrows‌ I would be upset about that. My DH and I are wary about what is accessible online and may even decide to avoid posting pics of the LO on Facebook. Even if that's not the case, only you should be the one that chooses what pictures of you DS are online, no one else.

I was up all night with my poor vomiting DD. I felt terrible for her. But I already hate vomit and the smell while pregnant with a super sniffer was horendous. And of course my DH was on shift, and stuck at a fire alarm and couldn't get home. She's finally better today thankfully--but we both barely slept.

I had a nice setup on the couch with sheets and towels and of course my husband took it all off because "she hasn't gone sick in hours". Really? She hasn't eaten in hours either. I am hyper vigilant about stomach viruses but he thinks I'm paranoid. But nobody likes cleaning up messes on furniture. Also, sincerely hope I don't pick up this bug. I took a big swig of Apple Cider vinegar last night--which is supposed to help keep the stomach virus at bay--we shall see. But pregnancy nausea is bad enough--really don't want to add stomach virus on top of it.

blu-eyedwife · December 2014

I'm soooooo tired! I was up till just before midnight roasting a chicken, making latkes, and sufganiyot dough and wrapping the last few presents for the first night of Channukah tonight. And then the kid was up at 5:30. It's going to be a long day.

sgarmand · December 2014

Found out yesterday that I'm 11w1d when thought I was 13 weeks. Here's to repeating two more weeks of first tri. Also, my date got pushed back to July 6th. I'm gonna stay here if that's okay. It's home now. And we all know there's a good chance I'll still get a June baby.

I busted my foot walking. Just walking, like a normal human being. I put my foot down, and it's hurt for the past three days to put any weight on it.

This is just another entry in my long list of "injuries I get just by trying to be a person." Like, pulled a hip muscle sleeping. Or chipped a tooth eating cereal. If we had a zombie apocalypse, I'd be the first one down for sure.

Of course you should stay! I'm sorry about this though--the same thing happened to me when I thought I was almost to 10 weeks. At first I was annoyed, but now I'm kind of glad--I would definitely have been a little worried about not feeling the second tri upswing for almost 2 weeks "into it."

jjtogsgirl · December 2014

Flu. Enough said. (Yes I got my flu shot, yes I've called my doctor). Yesterday I pissed myself while throwing up.

I think that's why I was upset--I didn't get a say in the matter, and had no control over it. I felt bad after I email the shop owner because I hate causing problems, but I just felt super uneasy about it.

******Quote fail******

I would be livid. It sounds like you weren't given any warning/notice that the photos would be posted to a public website and certainly no opportunity to consent to that type of publication. When paying for pictures, I think the reasonable assumption is that the photos will only be given to you (in the absence of some disclaimer that the photographer can use them in advertisements for their work - which is pretty common). I wouldn't feel badly at all - I seriously hope that the shop owner changes this practice.

OokamiNoHime · December 2014

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who feels the way I do! Thank you all for this!!

My Brother and SIL were married a few months ago. On that morning, I let her borrow one of my marching band sweaters. They've been married for 6 months and I haven't gotten my sweater back. It's even worse that she wears it in front of me.
Also, I think she has some fascination with stealing my clothing, because when they moved my brother's things out of our room (we shared a room for a bit before we each moved out) my favourite sweater went missing. I asked them to keep an eye out for it, and they said they didn't find it.
The other day, I was headed into work, and who did I see? My SIL, in my favorite sweater!!
I wanted to rip it off her body and beat her with it.
I'm probably a little too angry, but I'm more upset at the fact that it's not hers, and she lied about having it. Plus, the first sweater was a sweater I earned by being in a special marching band competition, years ago, in my home town. It's special to me..

Ugh - I knew a girl in college who used to do that (borrow clothes and never return them). She would even go so far as to hide them when the owner came to visit so she could keep them. Do you ever visit your brother and SIL at their house? If so, the next time you visit just say "oh! Before I forget, would you mind grabbing the sweater that I lent you?" If she offers to wash it for you and return it later just tell her "no thanks" and say that you actually have a load of woolens that you're going to be washing later anyway. If she says that she's not sure where it is, offer to help her look and explain that it's really important to you to get it back because it has sentimental value. Good luck!

Edit: Note that you can also take the opportunity to "thank" her for finding your other sweater as you noticed her wearing it the other day and ask that she grab that one too. Just pretend to be genuinely pleased - if she thinks that you're mad about it, she may lie and say she doesn't know what you're talking about (to avoid the conflict) and then you'll never get it back.

kristykristyleelee · December 2014

Why do people think it is ok to sit on the toilet in a bathroom with only 2 stalls and talk on their phone? At work. Not only do I not want to have to hear your conversation, but I also don't want to have to wait to go to the bathroom because you are rudely hogging one stall for your conversation.

Times like these I wish I wasn't so constipated so I could very loudly poop and hopefully stink them out of the stall! bahahaha!

OokamiNoHime · December 2014

Katerina&Baby : Those are wonderful ideas! I especially like the "thanking" her for finding my sweater. I laughed really hard at it.

I hate clients that complain about not getting enough spousal support to make ends meet and, on reading their file, it turns out they are getting (significantly) more for having been married to someone than DH and I make combined for doing actual jobs. Don't bitch to me that you can't get your nails did when DH and I are somehow raising a whole family (and paying for cars and gas etc. to get to work while you sit on your ass) on less than your support payments.

@suzysurparis My mom tends to post on the posts of my friends. Like, people she doesn't know or has maybe met once or twice. Makes me super duper uncomfortable. She basically absorbed one of my sisters best friends and talks like she is the friends "bonus mom" (this extends to how she treats the friends daughter too....it's just f-ing weird...)

My super special extra bitch today is that I went for blood work (after putting it off for ages, because I hate having blood work done it freaks me right out and I have minor panic attacks and they can never find a vein) - I told the tech that I suck badly at having blood work done (fair warning) and SHE DID AN AWESOME JOB - found my vein and got the blood super fast and easy...Then I get a phone call today that she forgot to get a vial for the HIV test so, oh well you'll just have to come back. RAGE! My doctors appt is on Thursday, all of the results should have been back in time for that appt...and now I have to go back again just so you can get ONE vial of blood for HIV testing that I DON'T EVEN NEED?!?!?! I didn't have HIV the last 300 times I had to have blood work done, and I have not recently put myself into any situation that would result in my contracting HIV so I'm not sure why this is necessary. FUFUFUFUUFUFFCK

Also, it took almost my entire lunch break to get the blood work done by the time I registered etc. YOU DON'T STEAL A PREGNANT WOMANS LUNCH BREAK!

For some reason every time I read your name I think it says askhole. I like it.

awheeler4311 · December 2014

Got to my elective ultrasound appointment bright and early this am, only to find out they only scheduled me for a doc check up. That was fun. I must have looked like I was going to kill someone, bc both my husband and the nurse were like it's okay, we will get it fixed and get you in.. And backed away slowly. Ugh!!! Got in, but had to wait another hour after my appointment!!!!

ksimo6 · December 2014

threearrows - You are 100% right on the pics of your child. I would have been livid. There is no telling how many creepers go trolling through galleries like that. Gross! I have my FB really locked down... and for good reason, I don't want people who do not know me or my kid looking at pictures of her for ANY REASON. I would have flipped shit.

Also - My husband and I have rental properties. There are typically laws in each state around keeping the home safe and habitable for the tenant... which would include taking care of rodents. Do a quick google search on tenant rights around rodent infestations in your state and put that in front of your landlord. It may motivate him.

Don't really have a bitch today. I was up most of hte night with a sick kiddo, so I'm a little sore that there isn't a nap room here at work, but I will likely get over that. Happy Tuesday ladies.

Cspinx · December 2014

I need to bitch about my sister! She has finally pushed my husband and I too far! First of all a little background on her... shes a "lazy" mom of two kids. This isn't just my opinion, but my whole family feels this way, including my sister! Her daughter is 10 and has ADHD, nothing unique that no other mom has ever dealt with, but she acts like she's the only mom of an overactive child that has a hard time paying attention. Her son is 3 and doesn't have ADHD, but is learning from example of his sister on how to behave. My sister does not parent her kids, she sits them in front of the tv or gives them an Ipad and tells them to leave her alone while she watches netflix or messes around on the computer ALL day. They have no discipline, no manners, no respect for other people. She makes excuses for her kids and her favorite one is, "well she has ADHD, theres nothing I can do". In which I reply with the fact my husband is also severely ADHD, but has learned to be a decent human being!

So my rant is that she has told me how lucky I am that my daughter is a "normal good child" on many occasion, but I usually don't say anything and let it go, but I recently posted a pic of my ultrasound I had on facebook, which started my friends and family guessing the gender. My sister replied and said "you need to have a boy this time because boys are little shitheads and you got off too easy with a good kid last time". This sent my head into a spin and I could feel my blood pressure rising. My husband said my face literally turned beet red. My "normal good kid" is a good kid because she was RAISED THAT WAY!! We worked our asses off teaching her right and wrong, good manners, what NO means, and to listen the first time!!! The fact that she undermines our parenting as being that we just got lucky, pisses me off to no end!!! Kids aren't born good or bad, and that fact that she truly believes this, baffles me. I'm dreading having to see her face to face over the holidays because my filter in non-existent now that I'm a hormonal mess. If she says one damn thing to me, anything at all, I'm going to scratch her damn eyes out.

megron · December 2014

So I'm like enraged at the rude the rude thread that's getting replies. I know I don't really "know" any of you ladies but when people start calling the girls I love on here who give support little bitches I get shitty.

I'm sorry. Your first paragraph sounds like my SIL. She sounds super jealous. I don't have any real words of wisdom, other than to just ignore her, but comments like that would certainly make me hit the roof as well!

dkleid · December 2014

Work related bitch- We are getting new carpet and paint in the whole building. I have now boxed up my cube, and an old office. The old office we first had to move everything out of and then today moved it back into. Tomorrow we are going to have to move our boxes back into our cubes and then unpack them. Im exhausted and just want to go to sleep. This is also after my boss had to re-create a few documents this morning with me that the account manager was supposed to do 2 years ago and never did.. I havent craved alcohol at all since getting pregnant...but i could so go for a cup of wine right about now!

kristaB1989 · December 2014

I slept with one of my kid's wooden blocks under my back.

It evidently didn't bother me enough to wake me up but my back isn't feeling too good today. Why can't DS sleep in his own bed anymore?! My husband got home at 11:00 pm from work and I expected him to put our kid in his own room like he usually does but he didnt. I had a little butt in my face when I woke up this morning. I love my kid more than anything in the world but I also like him sleeping in his own bed!

Stormy61 · December 2014

I can't stand my co worker that I sit by. She LOVES attention. I could tell hours of stories but I still stick to today. So she had some procedure done for fibroids last week and is now sitting on a pillow and heating pad. I refuse to ask her what's wrong (I pretend to not know anything about her life).

Well today she asks me to get something from underneath her desk bc "she can't bend down" Ugh! I so wanted to play the pregnancy card!!!! But I haven't told every one at work yet

and she will be the LAST person I tell. Although I should make her feel bad for having a pregnant bend down on the floor to help her.

kristykristyleelee · December 2014

@dzashley I feel your pain!!! I cannot tell you how many times I roll my eyes everyday at the attention my coworker loves to get from anyone, or anything (and I am not even an eye roller). I also scream in my head "SHUT THE FUCK UP" countless times on a daily basis....and at least once a day I almost say it out loud. LOL at pretending to not know anything about her life....I do the same thing!

"Oh, you fell on the ice over the weekend (even though it was 50 degrees all weekend)? I didn't know, I must have somehow missed you telling every single person that walked by your cubicle, even the FEDEX guy and the random student that was looking for the Payroll office!"

How sad to watch since they're your nieces and nephews. Your sister is so rude to write something like that and on social media to boot. Maybe she needs a good dose of unfiltered pregnant woman fury fired her way. Hang in there buddy. Sadly we just can't choose our family!

I'm dreading having to see her face to face over the holidays because my filter in non-existent now that I'm a hormonal mess. If she says one damn thing to me, anything at all, I'm going to scratch her damn eyes out.

You should respond to her facebook post something like "ah yes, the old nature vs nurture debate - I prefer to think that my good parenting habits had a hand in DS's good manners but only time will tell

" and just leave it at that. Is it a subtle dig and passive aggressive? You bet - but it sounds like your sister could use a little reality check.
