A small, under-my-breath "wtf?" to the office manager who sent this email to several department admins, including me, this morning: "I have not heard from you all yet about the quantity
of holiday cards you want this year. Please let me know asap. Thanks." This is the first mention I've heard about holiday cards this year.
@bainidhedub I think that'd annoy me so much that I'd have to reply with something to the effect that I'd not received any prior notifications regarding the issue.
My wtf goes to the online selling apps. We're trying to sell almost 1000 sq ft of vinyl planks that were left in boxes in our house that we bought (we didn't want it but decided to just sell it). I realize that since it's vinyl (not wood or laminate) it should be cheap and I have it dirt cheap. The wtf comes in with the first person responding. Either buy the floor or don't, but she's dragging her feet. I've got like 8 other people behind you who want to come pick it all up. She's now asking me to meet her 45 min away (no way I'm doing that).

WTF to my MIL and DH's grandma. DH and I are storing the majority of our belongings at his grandma's (in her unused, unfinished basement out of the way) while we build our house and live in a camper. As a result, all our baby stuff is being stored there too. So DH brought everything from my first shower over there last week. Well, over the weekend my MIL was going over there and called to ask me if I knew where any of my baby pictures are and she would get them because they want to use them at my upcoming shower. I told her I didn't know but that I would find them for her (we have 5 weeks!). Later on, she called me and asked me about the pictures my sister made for the nursery and said that she and DH's grandma had gone down and looked at all the shower gifts.
Is it the end of the world? No. But I don't understand why it's hard to ask first. They're still my belongings. If they had asked I wouldn't have cared. But they didn't and now it makes me crabby.
WTF to Pottery Barn Kids.... Ordered our cribs back in July - they were originally estimated for Oct 8th delivery, then Oct 16-20... just called and they've shipped and the estimated delivery to the warehouse date was the 24th but the warehouse doesn't have them yet. Warehouse is saying they aren't suppose to get them until the 30th. ARG! I JUST WANT THEM IN THE NURSERY so I can finish decorating before I CANT MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE (mooing because I already feel like a cow!)
WTF to random folks touching my belly and not even talking to me... I get on the elevator to go to a building wide meeting downstairs. Lady gets on the elevator at a different floor that I know solely from when I was smoking, not as even a coworker, just as a random person I saw occasionally when smoking at the same spot. She proceeds to get on the elevator and rub my belly without even saying anything to me! Just like a driveby! I was so shocked I didn't even say anything bc WTF really?!
My WTF is at my MIL. She is helping my mom plan the baby shower. I already have anxiety about everything (I'm just an anxious person about most things in life). My mom has been running everything by me to make sure that I am okay with what is happening. She is keeping some things private which I am okay with. I have also ran a couple ideas by her that I wanted to try to include (a diaper raffle, what games I prefer, and a small party favor for every guest versus just the winners of the games/raffle). My mom was all about my party favor, a small mason jar with the mini hand sanitizer from bath and body works and a small lotion (that way people already have sanitizer if they want to hold the baby). Well my MIL decided that she didn't like that idea and changed the sanitizer to chapstick. I'm not totally opposed to the chapstick, but I'm also not asking for much. Those damn sanitizers are 5 for $6 right now. I will go buy them myself. Then she tells my mom "Don't let Trisha know though, I want it to be a surprise". Oh and she wants to decorate for the shower. I really don't even want a shower. The only reason I am doing it is because I know that it is for the baby ultimately and not me. I don't want decorations. Plus my house is HUGE and she just had a knee replacement. So who is going to hang the decorations? Sure as hell won't be me, she can't cause her knee is still healing (she can barely put weight on it) and my mom doesn't do ladders. And my DH will be gone hunting so there is no one to decorate (which I'm totally okay with and secretly giving the finger cause I'm an adult).
Apparently I have been holding that in for a bit. Haha
I got a MIL wtf too. She's visiting and keeps holding my toddler and saying "my baby" and "my perfect little boy"...agghhh cringe! It's obnoxious. And no, you didn't spend 2 hours pushing this kid out, he's not YOUR baby. Your "baby" is 31!
@sbishop426 omg my mother does that too and it drives me absolutely bsc insane!
AFM my mom is staying with us right now and driving me crazy. She's taking loud phone meetings at 9 pm and is so loud in her room I literally feel like she's in the damn bathroom with me and I'm trying to relax in the bath (clearly that's a bust). And she's like living with one of those awful women who corner you at target when your kid is melting down and you're barely holding it together and tells you to "cherish every moment." She's here for like 3 more weeks I don't know how I'm going to make it.

It must be a MIL trend this week... Mine has apparently been planning a family shower (even though I had that already...weird) at her house the saturday after thanksgiving. I only know this because someone else told me about it, not her. Anyway she text me last night to say sorry, apparently everyone is busy so we're not going to have a shower now. I wanted to text back what shower, but somehow kept my shit together and just said ok.
