We bought our house last August. We knew there was an issue with the deck when we bought it but didn't think it would affect the structure of the house. We were naive evidently. It's horrifying to discover that whoever built your beautiful didn't do a great job and I don't have the energy for this. Nor do I want the stress.
I feel you @cmjenkies. My sleep has been oscillating between great and terrible insomnia - see above stress. Quality sleep is sooooo important.
I had trouble falling asleep last night bc I was cramping. Just light cramps that I know are normal, but it still makes me brain think lots of thoughts!
Also wtf to our house too @becks_726. We want to finish our basement and redo some siding above our brick on our house. Turns out we also need a new roof. Waaaahhh
@mainemama_ that sucks! Last time we went to McDonald’s they forgot the chicken nuggets and just gave us two orders of fries. I’ve also only gotten a bun with no meat on a Big Mac! Yet I still go back...
@ginger1228 and @becks_726 I feel ya on the unexpected home repairs. Our irrigation system just went completely dead and while having it fixed they discovered a bunch of leaks and additional repairs. This was after having two window panes replaced because the seals had failed. Luckily it was covered under warranty still. Homeownership stinks sometimes.
Also, WTF to me for being so annoyed that she asked for one. I don’t need to eat an entire container of onion rings!
omg THIS! I've been having such intense aversions and so much nausea and I get SO excited when something actually looks tasty to me. The other day I cut up an enormous honeydew melon and then sat down to eat the whole thing by myself (this peppercorn-sized baby has been giving me some weird intense health food cravings). My husband had the nerve to sweetly and tentatively ask if maybe I could share some of the honeydew with him. I glared at him with my teeth bared like an animal. He nervously pointed out that I've rarely been able to eat very much food at one time lately, and that it was a VERY LARGE HONEYDEW. I basically completely lost my shit at him and was on the verge of tears before I realized what a crazy person I was being.
I gave him half of the honeydew.
The worst part was that he was right, even after giving him half, I still only managed to eat half of what was left on my plate.
Wtf mom: who keeps saying “well let’s just wait until your scan” anytime I mention my pregnancy. Meaning- let’s make sure you are even pregnant. I’ve had 2 losses...some positivity would go a long way.
Lol @jessier19! I keep having to remind DH that he is depriving our poppy seed... Get with the program dude!
@ThePax89, your mum sounds like a treat. Mine would totally say that kind of thing too. Doesn't intend to be hurtful but manages to over the oddest things. DH and I routinely laugh about the time I called to tell her I had gotten 100% on an exam in uni at a time when I was struggling. Her answer? "Was it multiple choice?" Nothing else!
We're headed to an outdoor concert at the zoo today and it's pouring outside and cold in June. Thank god for my hefty stock of Zofran so I don't have to be nauseous on top of wet and cold.
Also, vivid dreams have started and I had a dream that DH asked for a divorce (totally not happening IRL). So I know I shouldn't be mad at him, but I can't help being a little mad, even though it was a dream
@mainemama_ I would be pissed. Sweet and sour sauce is everything for me, I dip my nuggets and fries in it. lol Ketchup just won't do. FFWC I have a secret stash of sweet and sour sauces in fridge at home in case of similar incidents.
@jessier19 I got ridiculously mad at DH the other day too. I’ve been craving all things grapefruit, and asked him to grab me a grapefruit drink at the store. He came back with a bag full of water bottles and pink lemonade. WTF?? I was furious. The entire ride back to our air bnb I started listing retaliation, such as he was sleeping in his daughters room, he can make his own dinner because I wasn’t eating, etc., all while he had this annoying smug smile on his face. When I threatened to throw his ranch dressing out the car window he stopped me and pointed out my grapefruit drink was at the bottom of the bag.
He thinks it’s funny, and has been trying to get me to lose it over stupid stuff ever since.

I’ve been craving onion rings and my work cafe has been out and I finally got some today and she asked to try one!
Also, WTF to me for being so annoyed that she asked for one. I don’t need to eat an entire container of onion rings!

@nursemom913 that's evil. I would lose it!

@ThePax89 sorry your mom is being a negative Nancy. If it makes you feel any better, when I told my mom I was pregnant she said 'why?'
@Venessa88 YAS! Fries and sweet and sour sauce are made for each other! When I ask for extra sauce for a stash they charge me 50 cents per sauce
