Bitch, vent, whine, complain, curse. Whatever you and your hormones need to do to get through the week. No one is safe, complain about EVERYONE and ANYONE you need to!!!!!
Re: Monday Bitchfest 4/1/19
Quitting smoking just means that this normal middle schooler stuff is pissing me the fuck off today, but seriously. It's fucking ridiculous.
My only option for maternity stuff is online or my local Walmart. Bought Maternity jeggings saturday - that would have fit great if I was 6 inches shorter. Bought the EXACT SAME WALMART LEGGINGS I have been buying this whole pregnancy, just in black this time, and again, would have been fine if I were shorter. It is warming up and I need some freaking pants I can wear to school. Or some pantyhose so I can wear my dresses! But NOOOOOOOO there was literally NO pantyhose in my size at Walmart. It was ridiculous. I am not asking for the moon people, just some clothes!
Or, the companies who put out joke product commercials and people lose their ever-living minds over them. I don't know what is worse, the people who make the jokes, or the people who don't get it. But I'd stab every last one of them.
My big bitch is that I just want to feel normal again! I hate being huge, I hate being short of breath. Tonight for dinner i wasn't hungry. Normal me would have just not eaten because why eat if you're not hungry, but since I'm KO I had to eat. I ended up having a meat stick, hummus and a protein shake.
I'm just tired of feeling yucky.
Like I’m sorry, but who has the audacity to show up unannounced at someone’s house, at dinner time, and then act entitled to know what I’m doing/where I am because you expect a visit?? With no prior phone call or notice. I’m totally fine with an unexpected visit, but if I don’t answer the door or the phone then I’m either out or busy, and since we didn’t have plans anyway the normal thing to do would be to just leave right? It just stressed me the hell out - which I didn’t need considering the pregnancy stresses and he stress of trying to potty train the most stubborn child alive!!
Okay end of bitching.
I am going to murder my husband. Like seriously. I’m gonna kill him. I think he has aquagenic pruritus. Meaning he is getting itchy with showers and washing dishes. I keep telling him to stop, but he just won’t listen. They just don’t listen! Ugh.
What if you were sleeping because of a horrible night before? Ugh-I’m annoyed for you.
My bitchfest is to the neighborhood kids. The kids are between 4-8 yo.
There's a 4 yr old who is just the worst. She had all spring break and every weekend to knock on our door to ask if dd can play. But no, she waits until 10am on a school day to knock, ring the doorbell, then knock again to ask for dd. She also likes to go in our backyard and play with the dogs without asking. For some reason she takes the collar of one and picks her up.
Another girl that makes dd cry each day for something mean she says. And she's constantly trying to get her to do things she doesn't want to or that would get her trouble. Yesterday she told dd to steal an LOL toy from her cousin whenever we go over there next time.
Another girl who I use to let come in our house but not anymore. She went through all of dd's clothes in her closet and left them on the floor, toys everywhere, bedspread taken off the bed etc. She also hit dd in the eye with a stick a couple times and didn't even apologize.
They are all constantly knocking then ringing the doorbell. Dd doesn't want to play some times but they'll come back 5 minutes later and ask again. Yesterday they decided to play ding song ditch. I had to yell out the door to stop ringing the damn doorbell.
I'm just happy I can say that dd is the best kid in the neighborhood.
I am SO over my work place atm. If it wasn't for the new paid maternity leave and tons of flexibility they give me with my schedule, I'd be looking for work elsewhere. The red tape drives me absolutely bonkers. My department is totally in the wrong unit to be the most effective. Being pregnant is just making me more prone to seeming like an absolute crazy person because I just want to meltdown when I find more and more violations happening left and right (and in my OWN UNIT, wthhhhhhhhh).
EDIT: @asupernovablizzardstorm OMG, I'd lose it. DH would have already lost it on the kids. And I love kids but wtf other parents. Reading yours I'm glad our neighborhood is mostly retirees and families with kids in high school/college.
>:( I love my husband, I love my husband, I love my husband... but FUCK! I started coughing yesterday, and I'm trying not to come down with the fever/cough/crud DH and YDS had all weekend. I go to bed after a super steamy shower with essential oils and remind DH to put the puppies in the kennel before he goes to bed. With the quitting smoking, I have not been in the Arctic Entry where the puppies are, so I don't see until I go to warm up my car, that he never put the pups to bed in the kennel and the entry is COVERED with dog poop! I go wake my boys, have one take the puppies outside, have the other help me clean. I wanted a smoke so damn bad!!!!!
1) My mother in law. Just her being able to talk to me pisses me off most days.
2) Passover is coming and my daughter's school is Kosher. I am getting so annoyed with all of the moms who are saying they are sending bread products. Look, I'm not kosher (kid ate prosciutto for dinner last night) but can't they just respect the fact that the school is?
3) My job. I have no particular reason to hate my job, except that I can't work from home and there are no parking spots near the building. I have to walk up a freaking hill to get to my desk.
4) My husband. He is angry at himself and is yelling at me.
5) Old Navy didn't upload my new card so I can't place an order for maternity clothes.
Also can't find anywhere to have my baby shower that doesn't cost an arm and a leg, my friend who is supposed to be throwing it isn't helping look for a place, so I'm annoyed with her. If you don't want to help, just tell me. I'll find someone who wants to do it.
I'm on day one of using a glucose meter in lieu of the sugar drink and I'm already losing my mind. The pharmacists gave me the wrong lancets, so I had to go back. I gave myself a miniature hematoma on my ring finger from a hard prick. And I'm having a really hard time with the 1 hour postprandial checks because I'm usually squeezing meals in on the run during the day. It's 10:10am, I'm getting ready to go to pilates right now and afterward I have to run home, pick up the dog, go get DS from school, take the dog to the vet for a post-op and somehow find time to have lunch and get a sugars reading 1 hour after that magical meal. I'm trying to see if I can place an order with a local healthy restaurant to pickup right before I grab DS but their website isn't working and they aren't open yet, and I won't have time to call or stop by and wait. Grr! I'm hangry already!
@ketomommy omg that is too funny! my husband would never fall for that..
I love kids, I worked for more than 10 years in child care, and have spent an extensive amount of time with all of my friends children, my nieces, and nephew. I've done overnights and all days, I've dealt with kids in a good mood, and in the worst, nothing is right in the world moods. I love the challenge of figuring out what they need, and teaching them to grow into good, self-sufficient, intelligent people. I understand that I have not spent every single waking moment of every day with a child, but I have experience and feel qualified to speak about how I will be able to handle being a mom.
Now, I am admittedly coming from a place with very little experience with kids. My friends and family that have kids are either far away or have chosen other parent-friends and the friendship has changed. I can count the number of diapers I've changed on one hand. Whether you're uber experienced, like you, or not experienced at all, it doesn't matter. Kids dont come with a manual and every kid/family is different. We all have experiences that are new and hard, but that doesn't give a stranger the right to feel sorry for me or to tell me "what I'm in for". Clueless or not, I'm having this baby and I'll figure out what works for my family. I am just as qualified to be a mom as the next woman that comes along, dammit!
I want to do cream colored walls with very light pink accents.
They have other clothes that fit. They have a minimum of 30 pairs of socks each hidden somewhere in their rooms. They have underwear that they chose that they tell me fits them comfortably. I am at my wits end. They don't do their laundry (they are 9 & 11 but have been taught/shown how to do it multiple times and it is one of their chores) so those clothes are taking on a life of their own. I just... WTF do I do??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
