My husband is my bitchfest today. I've been home sick for 2 days. He tells me his cousin is in our city for work (1.5 hours travel time) and he wants to meet up. I tell him I'm obviously not going because I've had a sinus infection and feel like crap. While I've been sick I've been washing all the blankets and sheets in the house. Partially because I'm sick but also because my mom is coming soon. Well, my husband is like hey my cousin is going to stay the night. I don't really like guests in my house, I'm sick still hacking up a lung, sneezing, feverish, and blowing my nose and now someone I've met twice will be staying the night. I looked at my husband and said the guest room isn't clean and I'm not doing it. Im going to bed. Im disproportionately mad over this but I don't care. Im now also going to have to rewash the sheets that I just washed. normally I get this angry with pms but apparently it also accompanies being sick!

@sarah0985 That would make me mad too. I don't like guests at all. It makes me feel like I can't relax in my own home. My H is notorious for springing guests on me. Normally it's just "so and so is going to swing by for a minute" which inevitably turns into an hours long visit. He better know better than to spring an over night stay on me. I would flip.
I don't have any big things to bitch about, just a few little annoyances...DH and I agreed to TTA this cycle because we're going on a cruise in a few weeks and don't want to have to worry about Zika. Well, he knew I was in my FW and we agreed on using the POM because we both hate condoms. On Friday, he got a little too "caught up in the moment" and didn't PO. It looks like Friday was -2 so while it isn't great timing, I can't count myself out for this cycle and its stressing me out. It's too late for us to cancel and get our money back so if we got crazy lucky we would either have to lose a ton of money or go on the trip, bathe in deet, and stay on the boat which my doctor said would be fine but still makes me nervous.
This is not a bitch or an annoyance, just an observation... I was lurking the October BMB because I like to torture myself and I noticed a few TTGP regulars over there who didn't announce a BFP on a TWW thread. I was just wondering yesterday if they were taking a break from TB because I hadn't seen them around. I feel kinda sad we didn't get to cyber celebrate with them but I get not wanting to announce and make a deal of it, especially for those PGAL. Anyway, for any who might be lurking. Congrats and we'll miss you!

I work for a hospitality group that runs a small chain of high end restaurants both in the US and abroad, not franchised. I have had this same damn woman calling for three weeks, wanting to speak to someone about opening a restaurant in her country. I've given her the correct person to email in regards to expansion (one of the partners) and explained to her that he travels 2/3 of the time and email is the best way to reach him. She still calls EVERY morning, three times today. I give her credit for persistence but if he is interested he'll respond to you, so you can stop soliciting me now.

I have something similar happening to me. My work number must have been someone elses before I started because the same woman calls several times a week and leaves messages for someone else (who I have never heard of). I have told her several times that she has the wrong number and that I don't know who she's trying to reach but she still keeps calling! I now recognize the number and ignore it.

Girl.... my H just thinks about dieting and loses 5 lbs. Then, he'll just have one beer at dinner instead of 2 and loses 15 more. Meanwhile, I'm starving and have basically lost nothing since Christmas. SO. NOT. FAIR.

Stupid cold. I am supposed to be trying to get ahead on hours this week so I can save some vacation time when we go to Mardi Gras this weekend but all I want to do is take a nap.
A fb friend of mine bought a new house a couple days ago. She is actually DH's ex-girlfriend who he left for me. haha! Anyway, we are still on good terms and everything. But, I have bit of an imaginary competition with this woman in my head. So, her and her husband bought a freaking house that is freaking amazing and she needs to post a freaking picture of their amazing new house every freaking 5 minutes. Now, I am not intimately familiar with their finances, but I know they don't have a ton of money. I just don't understand how people can buy houses. I mean, we are so far away from owning a house. 2 bachelor degrees and a masters degree (in a couple months) between us and it is going to be like 7-8 years probably before we own a home. So, I am jealous and annoyed and just plain hateful today about the whole thing. Someone should just come bitch slap me out of this jealousy funk. So, I guess the bitchfest is really about myself. Also, I woke up at 4:00am this morning to take my parents to the airport and then finally fell back to sleep only to be woken by the toddler. Lazy ass DH refused to get up with her because "he had a hard time falling asleep last night". So, I am tired and crabby and just done. I bought a $40 shirt online first thing this morning so I feel like I stuck it to him. And now I have no money. I suck.

Just got off the phone with my husbands insurance company - his HR rep submitted wrong info for him so he has random dependents and wrong address on his insurance form. Now this whole cluster**** has to be figured out AND he's super nonchalant about the whole deal like it doesnt matter and thought the insurance company will fix it all. Ummm noooooo.......go to your freaking HR and talk to them about it so they can submit an update.

@mrsstuessy Hope the shirt is cute, haha! Isn't FB the worst when it comes to comparing our lives to others?? I catch myself doing it all the time, especially with the babies plastered all over my feed every single day. But, just remember, you got the man!
Meanwhile, I'm sitting here just waiting for AF to show like...
My BF is that I left my laptop charger at my parents' house this weekend. Typically wouldn't be a big deal, but I seem to have moved into the 'no mac' zone. Like walmart.com can't ship one to the local walmart. So I am trying to write lesson plans, teach and start taxes with a laptop at 40% charge.
Also, this is from the weekend, but I just saw the voicemail my aunt left last week, and it set me off again. We had the funeral for my grandpa Saturday. It was a nice program and meal afterwards, but i had to verbally bitch slap everyone one of my aunts and grandma to get it the way grandpa wanted it. When he was diagnosed with Alhzlmers and Dementia, he planned out what he wanted, so that when/if he got too bad to remember it was already planned. Well, G-ma decided that since she was going to get all the $$$$$ form his pension, that it needed to be the largest, most grand funeral that the town had ever seen. My aunts all jumped on board, completely disregarding the wishes that G-pa wrote down. So my mom called me in tears Tuesday night. I took off work (and TB) the rest of the week, to fix all crap that the family was trying to pull. Now all 6 of my aunts(2 biological, 4 wives of uncles), my grandmother, and my two living uncles on that side aren't speaking to me. BUT G-pa got what he wanted.
ETA: details, and typos. When I'm angry I type faster than I think.

My co-worker who is on maternity leave just came in to visit with her 5 week old. I've been bombarded with pregnancy announcements and pregnant women since we started TTC but this is the first time I've been around a baby and my heart just feels so broken. I had to walk back to my desk before I started crying. No one here knows about my loss except my boss and I just don't want people asking questions but now I feel bad like I was blowing off my co-worker by not hanging around.

@mrsstuessy isn't fb the worst? Ugh... I'm sorry, but it sounds like you have a lot to be proud of!
So I had to go to a baby shower yesterday on CD1.. It was ok.. Until everyone at the the table decided to give me advice on how to get pregnant. I hadn't even said anything to most of these people. It was awful. I felt like my uterus was on display and not doing well. I ended up leaving early. It was awful.
Also.. I have to be up (I work midnights) to do a conference call at work for a meeting I didn't want to attend.. So my temp wasn't even a solid 4 hours so I'm deciding what to do with it. I just want to sleep...
I work night shifts. The day shift had a pizza party for reaching our goals. But how nice of the day shift to save the night shift ONE box of pizza. They had like 8...and breadsticks. They were so proud themselves that they remembered us. Considering the goal we reached was noise reduction at night (hospital setting). Please tell me day shift how you contributed to this. And we get ONE box of pizza for all of us? Thats like 1/2 slice per person. Not to mention you leftus mushroom. Blessing anyway. I'm on a diet. Its just the thought behind it. REALLY?
I didn't have any BFs earlier and now I'm overflowing with them... I'm trying SO HARD to stick to my eating plan. This is the time of year when I usually hybernate and eat all the carbs. I have to keep reminding myself that I'm going to be wearing a bathing suit in 3 weeks on vacation. Of course, it's monday and I'm tired and feeling sorry for myself so today is the day someone decided to give out Valentines bags full of candy to each person. Now I have a bag full of chocolate staring at me, mocking me and diet.

My bitchfest today is that my c-section scar has been giving me a dull ache and sometimes sharp pain all freaking day. My son will be 3 in April. Why the hell is it bothering me again?
My honorable mention goes out to Blue Cross Blue Shield of NC. Get your shit together. You've been jerking me around since early December, claimed my plan term'd but still debited my account, put me on a plan I didn't request and then tell me you didn't charge me enough last month because you changed my plan to the one I actually wanted retroactive 1/1 so you're going to debit 1400 from my account this week?!!!! They were all over the news due to massive screw ups this enrollment period. So bad they had police detail at their local buildings due to threats from people who got screwed like I did. This one's for you BCBS
*TW: Children mentioned* My BF is at my two best friends. We all had babies about 3 months apart. Well mine is 3 months older and theirs are 3 days. Now mine is about to be 2 and theirs are right behind him. We have all decided to start TTC at the same time. Now both of them are blowing up our group text thinking they are KU. It kinda irriates me because it is very (what is the word we use on here) "speshul snowflake" type talk. I want to just want to sit them down and say it doesn't work that way. But I am just listening because you know, who wants to play the mean girl irl.

@MRSCORKER I hope it's not going out of style! Seeing the BFPs in the TWW gives me hope! Especially these last few days, they have been real downers and I keep hoping to see more BFPs even though I have been one of those getting the BFNs this week. It's always nice to see the BFPs and look at any other info from those people like timing, charts, when they got the BFP, etc... So PSA - keep announcing those BFPs girls!
So my BF is about buying a car. I totaled my car 12/1/15 and am STILL without one. We're having such a hard time choosing because of budget and safety and room for kids in the back and blah blah blah....
so we find something about 2 hours away (next state over), dealer rep is running numbers and approximating trade in an such. I email him 2 days ago and say hey, thanks for the numbers now why isnt it listed on the site anymore? he emails me back and says, I'm so sorry.. I didnt realize it was sold...
WTF?
So DH is headed to the credit union right now to try to get the auto-check so we can go buy a different one tomorrow. if CU changed the interest rate I swear I'm gonna scream
ah, so much better

So, her and her husband bought a freaking house that is freaking amazing and she needs to post a freaking picture of their amazing new house every freaking 5 minutes. Now, I am not intimately familiar with their finances, but I know they don't have a ton of money. I just don't understand how people can buy houses. I mean, we are so far away from owning a house. 2 bachelor degrees and a masters degree (in a couple months) between us and it is going to be like 7-8 years probably before we own a home. So, I am jealous and annoyed and just plain hateful today about the whole thing. Someone should just come bitch slap me out of this jealousy funk. So, I guess the bitchfest is really about myself. Also, I woke up at 4:00am this morning to take my parents to the airport and then finally fell back to sleep only to be woken by the toddler. Lazy ass DH refused to get up with her because "he had a hard time falling asleep last night". So, I am tired and crabby and just done. I bought a $40 shirt online first thing this morning so I feel like I stuck it to him. And now I have no money. I suck.

Also, this is from the weekend, but I just saw the voicemail my aunt left last week, and it set me off again. We had the funeral for my grandpa Saturday. It was a nice program and meal afterwards, but i had to verbally bitch slap everyone one of my aunts and grandma to get it the way grandpa wanted it. When he was diagnosed with Alhzlmers and Dementia, he planned out what he wanted, so that when/if he got too bad to remember it was already planned. Well, G-ma decided that since she was going to get all the $$$$$ form his pension, that it needed to be the largest, most grand funeral that the town had ever seen. My aunts all jumped on board, completely disregarding the wishes that G-pa wrote down.
So my mom called me in tears Tuesday night. I took off work (and TB) the rest of the week, to fix all crap that the family was trying to pull. Now all 6 of my aunts(2 biological, 4 wives of uncles), my grandmother, and my two living uncles on that side aren't speaking to me. BUT G-pa got what he wanted.
ETA: details, and typos. When I'm angry I type faster than I think.

So I had to go to a baby shower yesterday on CD1.. It was ok.. Until everyone at the the table decided to give me advice on how to get pregnant. I hadn't even said anything to most of these people. It was awful. I felt like my uterus was on display and not doing well. I ended up leaving early. It was awful.
Also.. I have to be up (I work midnights) to do a conference call at work for a meeting I didn't want to attend.. So my temp wasn't even a solid 4 hours so I'm deciding what to do with it. I just want to sleep...

My honorable mention goes out to Blue Cross Blue Shield of NC. Get your shit together. You've been jerking me around since early December, claimed my plan term'd but still debited my account, put me on a plan I didn't request and then tell me you didn't charge me enough last month because you changed my plan to the one I actually wanted retroactive 1/1 so you're going to debit 1400 from my account this week?!!!! They were all over the news due to massive screw ups this enrollment period. So bad they had police detail at their local buildings due to threats from people who got screwed like I did. This one's for you BCBS
My BF is at my two best friends. We all had babies about 3 months apart. Well mine is 3 months older and theirs are 3 days. Now mine is about to be 2 and theirs are right behind him.
We have all decided to start TTC at the same time. Now both of them are blowing up our group text thinking they are KU. It kinda irriates me because it is very (what is the word we use on here) "speshul snowflake" type talk. I want to just want to sit them down and say it doesn't work that way. But I am just listening because you know, who wants to play the mean girl irl.
then 3 failed IUIs, and finally a successful IVF FET.
Due with #2 5/2/19 after HIO once in my FW,
because apparently that's how life works now. Team Blue!
Seriously though, all the congrats to them!
Also, I love Andy Bernard.

so we find something about 2 hours away (next state over), dealer rep is running numbers and approximating trade in an such. I email him 2 days ago and say hey, thanks for the numbers now why isnt it listed on the site anymore? he emails me back and says, I'm so sorry.. I didnt realize it was sold...
WTF?
So DH is headed to the credit union right now to try to get the auto-check so we can go buy a different one tomorrow. if CU changed the interest rate I swear I'm gonna scream
ah, so much better

My BF is pretty first world problem-y:
I went to "porch pick-up" my first ever LulaRoe leggings and it turned into an hour ordeal where I had to listen to this woman's life story, drive around town, wait for her to get home because she forgot, meet her family.... I thought "porch pick-up" meant no human interaction. I'm a teacher, I talk all day... I have zero interest in conversations after 4:00. UGH.
