Let's hear it.

Why on earth do so many people not understand apostrophes? I lost count of how many Mother's Day posts I saw yesterday that said, "Happy Mother's Day to all the mom's out there!" *cringe*

@MJDsquared so annoying! I saw a lot of weird Mother's Day posts yesterday. Many of them were dedicated to women who aren't even on social media. Maybe this is an UO but I don't understand those kinds of posts, where the person being honored won't even see it. There were also a few where the mom posted a picture of her kid(s) and kind of dedicated the post to herself? Like, thank you for letting me take care of you and show me the true meaning of Mother's Day, etc. Then there were the in memoriam posts, the ones where the poster is giving shout outs to all the women in their lives who have passed away. Again, probably another UO but I've never really liked those kind of tribute posts. I know everyone grieves differently but I'm not sure I understand the reasoning behind doing this.

@peachy13 Yeah, all the MD posts got to be a bit much for me yesterday. Someone posted a meme that said, "Accidentally said Happy Mother's Day to my mom in person instead of writing a paragraph on social media," which made me lol. I know not everyone gets to see their mom in person, and maybe FB is their choice of medium instead. But I agree, if their mom doesn't have Facebook, it's not attention for their mom, it's attention for them. Which is weird.

I did post something on Father's Day last year after having lost my dad about three months prior. FD will probably always be a little hard for me, but I don't think I'll post a tribute every year. **TW** And I did read a post from someone whose mom (I assume) died in childbirth and it made me cry. **end TW** I guess the tribute posts I don't find quite as weird as the ones where their mom isn't even on Facebook.

@MJDsquared aw i totally understand the one for your father. Mine died 12 years ago and I promise Father's Day/birthdays/holidays get less awful as time goes on.

So I told my mom Saturday about this baby and gave her the go ahead to tell my brothers and grandma, and she did. Then my brother texts me yesterday evening, not to congratulate me or wish me a happy mothers day, no. He wanted to ask if he could tell my other grandma about the baby. He just wanted the glory.

This is how my family works. This is why I moved half way across the country away from them...

So I finally got around to taking the step to switch OBs. I did my due diligence, found an in-network doctor in my current HMO group that a friend also recommended. Well turns out while she is accepting new patients, she isn't accepting new patients with MY specific insurance. And the other doctor I liked doesn't take HMO insurance at all. Balllllllllllllllllllllsssssssssssssss that means I am stuck with my current doctor which I am not super happy about but I will survive.

Why is it, that when you post something for sale on FB or craigslist, and you list everything about it... then people message you asking "what's wrong with it?"
uhhh..... if you read the listing then you'd know. I'm not going to type it out for you again because you're too f*ing lazy to read.

lavashiner · May 2017

ugh @flowerpower5838 that sucks! I hate when I've finally made up my mind to do something and then can't do it--earlier this year I was going to apply for a new job. The posting had been up for 2 weeks. I decided to go for it, went to submit my app, and the posting was gone!!!! WTF?

I hope your current OB steps up their game.

Im feeling bitchy because I have morning sickness (lol its not even bad morning sickness) and its been very difficult for me to work from home. I honestly think that if I had to do my usual assignment which is run around all day I would be doing somewhat ok. Right now I am having difficulty with being home and trying not to fall asleep or being home and feeling as though I am almost on the verge of vomiting every minute. I am annoyed at my self because I felt like it would be so much easier to work from home when I dont feel well but its turning out to be more of the opposite. Also feeling annoyed that I got the job I had mentioned earlier where I thought I was going to be moving. Yes I am going to be moving and its going to be a long trek of 8 hours with three cats and Ill be about 12 weeks at the time so hopefully feeling better

I just want school to be over. I'm so tired and my patience is gone. Also my back started hurting bad today, in the same spot where I hurt it before, and I basically am useless because of it! Ahhhh!

@eazybreezy225 ugh, this!! I always make sure to be SO detailed in the description and have had so many people show up to pick up the items and be like "ohh.. that's the colour?" "Hmm.. I thought it was taller.." "oh, it has wheels?!" Like, omg people, did you even read the ad?!
