Ohhhh do tell.

WTF weather? You're like a Katy Perry song, hot then cold. Do I need a coat? Does the heat in my car need to be on? You're 40 degrees one morning then 60 degrees 2 days later. Not exactly trying to welcome winter with open arms here, but I am a fan of gradual change and/or consistency.

I second this!!

WTF nose. If you aren't sick why be stuffed up or runny every morning! One of the more annoying pregnancy symptoms.

My WTF goes out to all the students. It's downpouring, windy, a tractor trailer blew its tire so it pulled into the parking lot- distracting every one of the 13 boys in class. One punched another in the face 4 or 5 times. One is bitching because we didn't order him a lunch (despite the fact he is 18 and knows if he wants lunch he needs to be present at SCHOOL to get one ordered, not show up at 11:10 and get pissy because we didn't order his lunch). I went to the bathroom to come back and find 4-5 boys and a staff in my office hanging around- another wanted to order lunch (again, lunch has to be ordered by 10- it was 10:50 when he decided he wanted food), one stole all my reward dollars, then brought them back and told me I need to watch my money more closely. One is spazzing out because he had review meetings today with his home school, and has been slamming the doors so hard I've been jumping out of my seat ready to pee my pants because I'm busy working, looking at the computer to notice someone is at my otherwise open door. Its like male PMS on STEROIDS here!!! an the day isn't half over yet...

So my SIL - i love her, really, but she was supposed to fly out Saturday or Sunday. But she never plans this shit out. She's flying stand-by, and it was NASCAR race wknd here (we live close to T'dega – ugh again), and that screwed her lack-of-planning-plans all up. So Monday we drive her an hour away to the airport at 4fuckingAM so she can catch standby flights. They all ended up full in the morning, but she knew there were a couple available evening flights. BUT she decided she didn't want to sit around the airport for 12 hours; ok I don't blame her, but *that was her plan!* So she has a friend pick her up and bring her back. So now she's going to hang out at our house (this is after we hosted a big family party this weekend and I JUST WANT MY FUCKING HOUSE BACK!) until Wednesday. Remember yesterday I had my two appointments? Plus I volunteer at the breastfeeding support group on Tuesdays. And we had to be at the fall festival at the college for my little girl's dance performance. Tuesdays are super busy. So anyhow, she calls me Monday when I'm in my jammies, trying to get kids to calm back down after being startled from short naps from our malfunctioning fire alarm, and tells me her and her friend are two minutes away. I don't even know this guy. And he hung out for an hour! And on top of it all, the two hours of driving in the rain at 4am was for fucking nothing. So she's around for our hectic Tuesday, bc she doesn't have a way to get to the airport Tuesday to catch the for sure flight that is available at 5pm. We buy her dinner, bc we were going out to eat between running around before dance. She sleeps on our couch with the tv on all night long (I can hear it) and I told her to make sure she was out of the bathroom by 5:30 this morn bc that's when my little autistic 5yo wakes up to pee/brush teeth before school. What does she do? Goes in the bathroom at 5:30. Kiddo almost pees in his pants. She's all in our way, makes us late. Husband leaves even earlier for work to take her to the airport this morn. He just texted me that the only flight available was at 6am and she missed it. WATF. I am so pissed. I don't want to see her. She's inconveniencing everyone else and she will do the same thing next time. This is how she always is. She's got no SO, no kids, no permanent residence even (she's a flight attendant). She is transient and irresponsible, and I am so pissed.
Sorry for the super long rant.
The rest of the weekend celebrating my inlaws' 50th anniversary with the other SIL and all the nieces and nephews was really great.
And I do love my irresponsible SIL. Just so frustrated. Sorry for all the swearing b

oceanchild · October 2015

And props to anyone who even bothered to read all that and can follow it LOL
Just needed to vent and I can't yell to my kids or already frustrated hubs; it's his sis after all

oceanchild · October 2015

Doesn't make it better that I'm babysitting an extra 3yo today and she and my daughter have completely turned my house upside down and my baby can't nap with the chaos. I just want to see no extra people for a week. KThxBai

SarahFoley725 · October 2015

WTF husband:

Thanksgiving will be our first big holiday in our house and my husband loves to cook the turkey. We invited BOTH of our families to come for Thanksgiving and celebrate with us. I had talked to his mom about this extensively on the phone planning a menu and everything else. I don't know what planet he lives on but he told his mom (who I already have a mile long list of issues with) that they were not invited to Thanksgiving and that it was only for my side of the family. I had to call his mom this morning to ask her a question and she told me he had said this...I almost DIED. THANKFULLY she thought that he was confused because she and I had already hashed this out. I would have killed him if he had caused some unnecessary drama with her.

kynbar5 · October 2015

Wtf mother? I get a call yesterday from my mom informing me that her and my aunt have decided to host Thanksgiving at my house. They've already picked the time and menu. They will let me know what I need to cook. They've already started telling people. Umm, first off I do not get told by anyone that they've made plans to host a dinner at my home and they will tell me what I need to cook. 2nd, we haven't done a big everyone-get-together holiday meal since I was in high school so I've always cooked a big meal for my family on Thanksgiving day and then the day after my sister, brother and their family comes and we do it again. My mother has always made her own plans with her bf and his family or gone to the next town over (where the rest of my family are) and done Thanksgiving with them. 3rd, one of my cousins 3 kids are legitimate hellions and the last time I had them over they broke numerous toys and a bedroom light that a toy got launched at. 4th, everyone goes nuts when they hear "free food" and start inviting everyone they've ever known. 4th, no, just straight up, flat out no. I'm sure my mother will be pissed but I just can't even handle this and won't. If they want to host a big ol Thanksgiving so bad they can do it at one of their houses. Ugh, ok. I'm done lol.

flowerpower5838 · October 2015

@oceanchild Yikes. What a disaster. Way to cap off a nice weekend, SIL! If I were you, she'd be staying with someone else or getting a hotel room the next time she is in town. And also, as a fellow travel industry professional, how on earth can she seem so inept in how flying works?? That boggles my mind.

oceanchild · October 2015

:-O <— my face for you @kynbar5
Omg eff no. I'd be like you have a lot of calling people back to do bc that's not happening. Just based on principle even! Wtf?!?!?

Looks like we have a lot of WTFs at family members this week lmao

Stand your ground! That sh*t is unacceptable!

skruhmin · October 2015

WTF lungs, just stop coughing. I'm over you. I love breathing, just work with me, mmmmm k?

SarahFoley725 · October 2015

@kynbar5 Heads. Would. Roll. I am just stunned. Maybe this is a weird thing to be hung up on but a theme for Thanksgiving? Isn't that kind of a theme on its own haha

kynbar5 · October 2015

Lol. Even my sister was shocked. She's like, "did mom forget that you're the one that flips out over these kinds of things?! And on top of that you're pregnant! Seriously just totally pull the pregnant hormonal bitch card!" She had me cracking up but I will be calling my mother this afternoon and letting her know that crap ain't gonna work out. [-(

SarahFoley725 · October 2015

Another WTF...this image has been going around Facebook talking about C Section and how some people believe not having a vaginal birth makes you less of a woman or not a really mom. I've heard about this before but being pregnant makes it even more ridiculous to me. W H A T I mean seriously?!? I just want to remind people that before C Sections were a thing those moms AND babies would probably have died from the complications. BUT I GUESS DYING IS BETTER THAN BEING CUT OPEN omfg these idiots I swear.

Also I really don't like when people use the word "retarded" in a negative way.

kynbar5 · October 2015

@SarahFoley725 ugh that annoys me to. The "retard" thing- I seriously want to nut punch people when I hear this. It's not funny or cute. My kids know my rules on it. I have a 13 yr old niece that says it and let's just say after the 1st time, she didn't say it in front of me or my kids anymore.

SarahFoley725 · October 2015

It didn't really bother me until I started working with Special Needs kids and now it just infuriates me. I snapped at my friend the other day and told her she needed to take that word out of her vocabulary. Ugh people

annamakesthings · October 2015

Ugh wtf co-workers who won't stop asking "How are you feeling" because they want to know about the baby. Listen, we both know you don't want to hear about how I threw up on Monday morning before work, or how I didn't get any sleep last night from indigestion. Please try asking something else, or stop prodding after my deflecting "I'm doing ok, how are you?"

I feel kind of bad complaining about it after everyone else's uninvited family drama. If I'm annoyed by something so little I'm sure you could tell that stuff would absolutely make me lose it!

hellomcintosh · October 2015

@oceanchild and @kynbar5 I can't even believe both of those situations! I'd be pissed beyond reason!!

chime · October 2015

WTF ex-step mother? Ok, so I get the whole "wow, you're mad because someone loves you enough to be involved and love your kid?" But yes. So this pregnancy is very high risk and we're struggling just to make it to viability. Generally, most people do know I am pregnant but only close family, friends or co-workers who will obviously notice my being on bed rest (no social media, etc).

My ex step-mother is not one of these people. She has not been a significant part of my life for perhaps 12 years. In more recent years she ran off to Fargo with a convicted meth dealer who she was having an affair with. Personally, my father is not my favorite person and I feel like her multiple affairs were karma but it was cruel of her to leave her children the way she did. But I digress. Anyway, despite me requesting he keep the complications to himself he told my brother, who currently lives with the ex- step mother (his mom). Of course he told her. I get that. Not mad at him. However, she then facebook messages me randomly throughout the day with random, casual questions. This is a woman who talks to me maybe twice a year. I knew what she was after but I didn't reference the pregnancy at all. Finally, later in the evening she goes "Ok, out with it. Your brother told me but Iwant to hear it from you." Im sorry....but excuse me? What gives you ANY fucking right to know anything that goes on in my life? More so, where do you get off demanding that I tell you? It is none of your damn business and it is MY choice to confide in who I want to. Some woman who ONLY talks to me when my father is flashing around a new girlfriend or wife is not privvy to my personal information. Seriously. She only speaks qith me when she feels the need to assert herself in the whole "You can't replace me. His kids loved me first," aspect. Do NOT use my and my husbands struggles to wave in my father's new wife's face like a "Haha, she told me first! Neener neener!" Go F yourself.

Sorry for the length and probable confusion. There is years of backstory that may clarify things better but I'll just vent that to my dogs like a normal person.

Did you tell her to stuff it?

ecwk · October 2015

Wtf people inviting yourself to @kynbar5's house for Thanksgiving?!?

Wtf stomach, why are you a bottomless pit? And brain, show some damn self discipline. (Just ate a ton of chips and I feel guilty).

oceanchild · October 2015

YES YES YES @ewck! All of that exactly! ^

oceanchild · October 2015

And @chime, what did you say? I also hope you told her to stuff it!

Guess what, all? SIL somehow got the last flight on some other airline and is the heck out of dodge now. YAY! #:-S

mrspepper05 · October 2015

WTF politics on facebook. I know that's just part of the social media territory, but it is making me so MAD today!! Pregnancy hormones attack again. I want to rip someone's throat out.

daisies05 · October 2015

Wow - ya'll have some messed up stuff going on! WTF for real! I hope you're all able to stand your ground and not give anyone what they want...

Mine: WTF Hormones? Was running through scenarios of who I'll call to watch my kids (I know, early to be thinking about, but I was) and next thing I know I'm sobbing uncontrollably and missing my mom. She passed away almost four years ago. My father passed away 6 years ago. They weren't even local for my oldest, but came out the day after we came home from the hospital. For my soon-to-be middle child, Dad was gone and Mom was in a nursing home out of state. Mom didn't even get to meet my daughter until she was 3 months and we could get out to see her. So, why child coverage brings up the "I want my mommy" response, I'm not sure. But damn, that was a crying jag I could have done without.

ecwk · October 2015

Agreed @mrspepper05 !!
There's a time and a place people!

WTF Facebook in general these days?! I've far too many narcissistic people on my news feed recently.
Oh what a fabulous life you live! Your husband must be such awesome company if all you do when you're together is take out your phone to let everyone know what you're doing! I really needed to know you're feeling hungry at chilis for the third time this week. Thanks.

oceanchild · October 2015

Huge {{hugs}} @daisies05!!!

ecwk · October 2015

Sorry you're going through this @daisies05 xx

kynbar5 · October 2015

I second the hugs for @daisies05 and @ecwk when I was on fb I had a friend that would do that but it was 2 and 3 times a week getting a pedi and hair done. But she had such a hard, exhausting life (I'm being super sarcastic with that remark).

oceanchild · October 2015

@kynbar5 my nosy bum is totally curious as to how that convo goes (telling them it isn't happening).

Lmao well it happened a little bit ago. I even asked my husband before-hand if I was being harsh. He's like, "dude, I don't want this craziness anymore than you do so just be honest. There's no way around that and they can't be mad because they never even bothered to ASK first". So, called my mom and just very honestly said "Y'all are going to need to decide who's house to do it at besides mine because I honestly am pissed about the situation and am not just going to lay down for this". I got a pause, long exhale and then (get ready for it) "well, OK then, I guess we'll figure something out. We'll need your dining room chairs that day though" HUGE facepalm from me as once again, there was no actual question there just demands so as nicely as I could I replied "what the hell are me and my family suppose to sit on while we eat at our home?!" I think she understood and replied with "nevermind". Then I "had to go wipe my 3 year old" and hung up. So I guess I'm still on my wtf mother?! Goodness gracious. 8-}

SarahFoley725 · October 2015

I'm sorry, @daisies05. I don't think we ever outgrow wanting our moms.

oceanchild · October 2015

@kynbar5 W O W the audacity! :-O

smushi · October 2015

WTF incontinence and this damn cough. I'm pretty sure I haven't had an accident in public since I was 4. One big cough led to six more and I had to sneak home drenched to change. And nut punches all around to the people acting stupidly in everyone else's lives. For reals...

oceanchild · October 2015

And seriously, GOOD on you for standing your ground! I'm all talk, but I'm such a pushover in the end. =D>

SarahFoley725 · October 2015

@kynbar5 you're being so unreasonable. Overnight your chairs and sit on the floor. While you're at it, just mail them (and me) dinner.

oceanchild · October 2015

@smushi loving for but punches for stupid peeps, not for drenched drawers
