Right, im a lurker mainly, who will comment on posts if i have an experience but tend to stay in the background because people seem to jump on others and I'd rather watch with my pop corn than be in the midst of it 
So as its friday... Everyone named one thing that has either made you so, so happy this week, or one thing you need to rant about.. GO..!!!
Mine: my fiance! Ive never gone from wanting to snuggle someone, to wanting to throttle someone so much! I know us pregnant hormonal women are probably a pain in the ar$e but sometimes i think he either does things on purpose to wind me up, or hes lost the ability to be understanding lol. xxx

Re: ONE THING.....
Vent: I need a burst of energy, a day off during the week, and motivation. My house looks like a bomb went off, my homework keeps getting half assed and still needs done this week, and all I want to do is lay down all the time.
I'm going to add a thankful category: I'm thankful for my husband who still loves me and shows me affection even when I'm lacking all that I am and our house is as bad as it is. I'm truly blessed in that sense.
Sad (not really a vent): Today, I misplaced my husband's left shoe. He almost got late today because of that. Luckily he has other shoes. He left in kind of a bad mood that lasted until went home. I REALLY tried looking for that missing shoe but gaaahd I just couldn't. He was really bothered by it (because it is his very favorite) so he searched by himself even though he's already tired. After a few hours, he found it in the laundry bin. He came to me and told me about it and I just felt that he got super tired and irritated with what happened that I just suddenly burst into tears, which I don't normally do. Ohhh! Pregnancy brain and hormones!
(PS. he hugged and kissed me when he saw me cry..and said that it's ok and that I should stop crying. What he did made me cry even more. Haha!)
Vent: we've lived in this house 6 months and have already put about $17K into it with all the crap that keeps going wrong. It's so frustrating. We just weren't ready for all of this to hit at once. We bought a house built in 2000 to avoid this very thing. It's all happening right as both vehicles are having problems too and we're less than 4 months out from having a second baby.
Vent: My husband has been waiting patiently for a month to hear from the school he was promised a job at about his job. The school is waiting on the school board. July 21, where y'at?!? >.> Each passing day, I get more anxious and upset. Hiding it from him is hard, but I know if he sees me so upset about it, he will feel worse. He's trying so hard. Wednesday he had an interview at my Alma Mater and the location is so convient for when Baby gets here. We'll hear back on that before the 3rd. Hoping he gets offered that position. Fingers crossed, y'all.
Vent: my husband is gone this weekend in Seattle for a job interview and is spending time with my 3 best high school friends that I still am super close with! All the while I'm packing our life into boxes! I'm not mad at all just a little jealous that he's having fun, in what will hopefully be our new city, while I'm packing!
Vent... don't rly have one at the moment. I'm sure I will think of a good one in about five seconds.
Second, my OB called me boring today at my 24- week appointment. I've never been so happy to be called boring!
No real complaints from me today, so I won't go searching for them
Vent: I've really enjoyed this board. I'm an avid reader, and post when I can add something meaningful. I come on today to catch up and people are getting banned and regular posters are feeling like they can't post freely. That's a major bummer thinking this board is going to get dry because people are report happy.
Vent: Getting ready to embark on a 12 day vacation back home. We leave a week from today but the anxiety is setting In. I'm the people pleaser and both of our families are demanding of time. I am also super excited because this will be our last trip to MO. for a long while.
Vent: It's rainy again today... I've had constant bad hair days this entire week due to humidity and rain. I dont think I even remember what blue sky and the sun look like.........
Vent: Still stressed about sending my fur babies outside for too long since we found a rattlesnake in the backyard on Tuesday. And had my 24 week check up and saw a different OB in the practice. I have white coat syndrome and of course my BP was up. She is making me come back in 2 weeks for a BP check, and chart my BP at home. My regular OB wouldn't have made me do that!!
Here's the pic of the rattlesnake that was in our back yard. It was about 4 feet long!! It's a timber rattler.
Vent: ugh, cars, cars, cars why do you have to be so necessary. After finding out yesterday that our car only needs a simple $130 repair to fix its engine overheating problem, we found out today that we can't even fix the broken hood latch without spending a total of $3500 or so worth of additional body work that I swear is mostly just cosmetic. Two body shops quoted me similar prices today and basically says it's all or nothing. And we can't pass inspection (due in July) without getting these repairs done.
Edit to add: I'm thankful for my husband. I'm thankful I don't have to deal with stressful times or celebrate joyous times alone.
Vent= I don't really have anything to complain about, I guess I could say how full I now feel from overeating :-) or the loud birds in my chimney. Yea def that!
Vent- it is 100 degrees in Oregon. We do not have central air because we rent and well, it's Oregon. My bedroom ac cannot keep up so it's 74 (and rising) in my only place of comfort and 85 (and rising) in the rest of my house. I am so hot and uncomfortable.
Adding the thankful category as well- my husband has been semi sweet even though he had to get a tooth pulled today. He's been getting me whatever food I want (to not cook) and back rubs to help with how uncomfortable I am.
Vent- I knew that bladder control was an issue in late pregnancy, but I am only 22 weeks and I leak pee every time I sneeze. . . Which seems to be every 5 minutes these days.
Vent- the other nurse is out of our office again next week. But thankful it's just a 4 day work week.
Vent: back spasms keeping me up at night!
