DH just spilled ALL of the homemade sauce I had simmering on the stove (probably about a gallon! no exaggeration) all over the floor. I had to get dressed again (I worked all day and changed into pjs after work) and go back to the store and buy all the stuff again. He wanted to use some sauce to help cook the meat down faster. Why you need to try to pour from a fucking stock pot rather than use a damn ladle is beyond me. "I don't know what happened! It just slipped out of my hands or something." And landed upside down on the (carpeted) kitchen floor. Fuck my night. I'm doing my best to be calm and not angry. It's not working very well. I was on the verge of hangry before this. Now it's going to be after 10 before we eat. Ugh!
You are for sure a better wife then I am, I would have told him to go get fast food, or some take out. No way I'd be remaking it! lol

My husband would 100% do this...you guys are lucky he didn't burn himself! Mine just HAD to make himself lobster for lunch recently like he's freakin Oprah Winfrey or something and as he's draining it he spilled the hot water all over his foot. Then he limped around for a week with his burned foot. It reminded me of when Michael Scott cooked his foot on the George Forman grill on The Office lol. But you know who had to clean up the nasty lobster water too... -_-
@apinkpelican Yeah, I came home from the store to him finishing shampooing the kitchen floor. And stouffers takes 1:40 to bake. Mine would take about that long and, not to toot my own horn, but I can cook and one of my best dishes is lasagna. Stouffers doesn't come close and is way more fattening. I use lots of veggies and a mix of sausage and venison instead of beef. It's pretty amazing. ;;)
When your DH/SO/DW/etc isn't sleeping with you for a bit (if you normally sleep together) how do you sleep? Do you take up the entire bed or do you stick to your side?
My mom and I discussed how we both stay on our side (with maybe a little more limb splaying onto his side), whereas my dad and DH will both take up the whole bed if left alone.
I'm down the shore with family, staying almost the full week, but DH just left after the weekend because he couldn't get off work tomorrow, and I totally just got into the bed and stayed on my side, it's so silly.

Oh no, I'm sleeping like a starfish when he's not there!! I sprawl out and enjoy the shit out of that extra space. Plus when I curl up in my usual spot I wake up and except him to be in bed with me.
@JandJ62914 yeah, he spilled it all over his foot but when I came into the kitchen he was too busy apologizing and said he was fine and wouldn't go rinse it in cold water.
@CaraBoonie When DH goes to drill every month, I do the same thing you do. He doesn't take up the whole bed by himself either because he curls in a ball and burrows in the covers. Which he tries to do when we're both in bed so I end up only partly covered halfway through the night and have to pull them back.
@indibidule@hailees I usually end up just leaving my stuff on his side...like I'll watch Netflix on my laptop in bed and fall asleep with my laptop where his head usually is, or toss snacks or my kindle on his side, haha.
@CaraBoonie I will leave my Kindle on his pillow, but the dogs will use the opportunity to sleep on the bed and will take up the remainder of his spot. I allow it because it helps me sleep better because I have trouble when he's gone.

this is what happens at my house. The dogs know I have no power over them and sleep in the bed when he's gone. My German shorthair sleeps closer to me than DH so I usually don't sleep well.

Do you ever wonder who volunteers their babies to star in recreated births, a la TLC shows or in movies? How does that even happen? Do you get a call from an agent and say, "Why yes, please slather my little Johnny in Vaseline and strawberry jelly. This is going to be his big break!"
A friends' baby was a just born baby in a soap opera. I don't know if there was Vaseline and strawberry jelly involved, though.
@mg137 oh I have no idea what it is either, I just always imagine it being some sort of jelly in case the babe tries to eat it... Super weird though, how did your friend even find out about that??
I'm think I'm the latest A/S on here! Mine is on Sept 11, exactly 20 weeks.
ETA: nope sounds like it's @daniellelynette with Sept 15. @shinyspade I'm also 1/29 EDD and so is CaraBoonie! You're not alone.
I also had donuts tonight.
When DW is gone I sleep the same as if she's here - all on my side of the bed.
Married DW 08.2013; AI 2x; IUI 6x; IUI #7 05.2015; DD born 2.2016 ; Reciprocal IVF FET #1 on 11.18.2020
@vvitchhazel congrats on the new job! I hope your new place has smaller window so it's not as bright s I-) @RepeatPostPolice my A/S is scheduled for August 27th so I have quite a while to wait too, luckily we are going on vacation for two weeks mid August so I'll be distracted. @CaraBoonie I am a side sleeper too but when DH isn't there I starfish, but more so in the morning, can only fall asleep on my side.
Mine was the one that is September 15th @clairelosc And we also have the same EDD! My DH is hoping I am a few days late- his birthday is Groundhog's Day and he wants a birthday baby!
@RepeatPostPolice We just started watching True Detective last night from the beginning. I'm not sure about it so far... We only watched the first episode. I sort of felt like it was a really long Matthew Mcconaughey Buick commercial, like, the whole time. Everyone says it's so good, so hopefully it gets better? The last 10 mins or so I felt like it was starting to turn around though. We'll see...
@Pinkpelican one thing to add to your Vegas tips..the Wynn has the most AMAZING buffet! We went there for brunch/lunch but the array of food there..and all the desserts..It's a pregnant girls dream.
@indibidule@hailees I usually end up just leaving my stuff on his side...like I'll watch Netflix on my laptop in bed and fall asleep with my laptop where his head usually is, or toss snacks or my kindle on his side, haha.
I'm exactly like this when DH is on shift. The only thing I do different is maybe sleep in my side facing in with my leg on the "4" position. Toward his side, but still on my own side. DH is a violent sleeper, so when I'm not home he for sure thrashes about the whole bed!
I'm like a kid on Christmas... Couldn't sleep last night for hours and woke up an hour before my alarm all because I get to hear the heartbeat this morning! Edit: words.
@Beverly0628 the second season has different plot line & actors but I did enjoy Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson together. Last night was the second-to-last episode and it had a plot twist I wasn't expecting (and wasn't happy about lol). It took me a couple episodes to figure out what was going on because of the way they do all the present-to-past storytelling. It gets easier to understand as you go along. Eta second season is all in chronological order.

I watched last season's but for some reason I can't get into this seasons. Too creepy and violent! My husband is watching though so I've been catching portions here and there

I think I don't like this season as much because it seems so much more plausible. Eta quote box fail
My first A/S is Friday! It's an early one and then I'll have another in another 3/4 weeks. They're keeping an extra eye on me because I'm high risk for GD and Pre-E. They want to track growth. I won't be surprised if they also send me for growth scans later on. Whateve they have to do to make sure Baby is on track.
Woke up to an automated call from my OB saying they have to reschedule my appointment next week...which was going to be a 3d ultrasound that I've been looking forward to for weeks! Last time they rescheduled, I ended up getting into an earlier appointment though, so maybe I'll strike gold again. But I'd like to not have this one pushed back, it took awhile to find a time that worked to get DH there too...I tried to call them back to reschedule but haven't been able to get through, which is the super annoying part. I get that things get pushed in medicine, especially when c-sections and births and emergencies are added to the schedule at any time. But I'd prefer a person to call and reschedule me instead of a robot saying someone will call eventually...
That's all, just needed a quick morning rant to get it out of my system before I go spend a day with my family so I can be pleasant around them, haha.
My DH wants to name our baby after his Grandfather. Great! Except that it is my first love/ex-boyfriends name. I. Just. Can't. But it means so much to DH that I might have to. I'm trying to convince him to move it to the middle name. After our conversation about it I actually had a dream about the ex-boyfriend. I'm sure I'll get over it, right?

Update: They pushed my appointment back 4 days I know it's not the end of the world, but I have a family wedding that weekend and was looking forward to seeing her face before then and gushing to relatives, ngl, haha.
