Confession session

Cant_wait!

Let's DO IT!This year is supposed to be the year that we had Thanksgiving with H's parents (we switch off every year). Due to recent family drama, I called H last night and told him I needed a break from his parents for awhile. He agreed and we decided that maybe we wont see them again until Christmas. And we're having our own Thanksgiving now

I don't want to go home and see my family for x-mas. I'd rather just go see H's family. They are nicer to me.

**O-Face**

I POAS last Friday, negativo baby.  Not sure I feel about that.Plusalso we're not planning, I just felt "weird".

I'll go: A big reason I wanted to get pg right away was because 2 kids in daycare would make it almost worth me staying home.  Or at least I could make some sort of case for it.Now that I'm staying home anyway I want to space the kids out more.  Then I can stay home longer.

I'm sending over my resume and applying formally for the position I mentioned yesterday. I got sent more information and I'd be traveling less than 50% overnight, meaning the majority of my travel would be local. I'd get to go home each night which would be nice when Beanie Weenie is here.

**O-Face**

That's awesome, Pmeg!

6fsn

That's great news PMeg.

DH plowed into my parents' car on his way out of the garage this morning.  Thankfully, my dad's car is already scratched up a bit and he didn't seem to care about the new ones.

I don't have any good confessions and that makes me sad.

I'm also still mad at DH over the poop pump incident.

Future Mrs Butterworth

I want to go out and buy and eat a huge bacon cheese burger with onion rings and a chocolate malt. but if I did I'd vomit.

Cant_wait!

I'm sad you paired the word vomit with chocolate malt bacon cheeseburger and onion rings. I want those. But there is nowhere in this town that has good onion rings.

Future Mrs Butterworth

Oh, I'd enjoy it on the way down, it just would get in an argument with my stomach. Then I wouldn't enjoy it on the way out:(Good onion rings are hard to find.

I'm sad that we didn't manage to get pregnant this year, and it's expensive to keep the insurance options open for a pregnancy, so we're done. Bacon, however, will be perfectly content to never have any competition.

I'm sad Bmom doesn't know how to use a calendar. You have two months of humpin' and pumpin' til the year is over.

hmonkey

bil and sil are not coming to thanksgiving this year.  i am glad.  before i knew this, i talked to dh about spending the holidays separately.  we're not having trouble or anything; i just want to see my family this year.

baconsmom

We started in November, and if I have to go back to charting, I have to do it sooner than later, or we will manage to get pg. I hated counting the stupid days, too.

PMeg819

DH says we need to save money, but I'm going to the damn yarn sale at the yarn shop and I'm buying maternity clothes this weekend. This isn't even a confession, it's just a glimpse into the day in the life of PMeg.

For serious though, I'm developing some major anxiety. If H is 2-3 car lengths behind a car, I freak out - it's too close. My heart races and I faux brake and clutch the "Oh Isht!" handle. I do the same with Mom, sis, MIL, coirkers, whomever. Flying used to be tres fun for me - but now the ascent and descent have me saying prayers and crying over the thoughts that we're going to be runway toast. I really am flipping the hell out.

Schmoopita

I keep dreaming about my ex-H and it puts me in a real pissy mood all day. I think I know why it's happening (has nothing to do with wishing anything was different) but it's very annoying.

hmonkey

dh and i were once in a car and i thought he was going way too fast.  i was adding elements to my argument -- too close to the curb!  all four wheels on the ground!  you barely missed that mailbox! -- when i looked over at the speedometer.dh was going 35mph.

zsazsa-stl

Nico, I have the same way for the past few years.  I sometimes have to close my eyes in the car and try to zone out while DH is driving just to get through a trip. I would blam your anxiety on the fact that you are mother hen with a chick to protect.   I'm just crazy.

MinM

I flipped off two people yesterday while driving, one of those people was elderly. Being 85 doesn't mean you can drive like an asshat.

I'm irked at my dad because he's got baby rabies really bad for grandchildren.  He went as far as to say something to my mom about having a serious 'man to man' talk with DH about having a baby.  My mom gave him a 'ho sit down and STFU' right quick.  She asked him who the hell he thought he was trying to get involved when we're adults now.  We have things to do (pay down/off some debt, get DH graduated from college) before we have a kid (well another kid).  DH and I had a heart to heart about it on Friday and we're on the same page.  And that's all that matters. I'm sick and tired of getting the baby question.  And yes, I've been using all sorts of 'rude' answers and telling everyone to STFU.

My sister wants to drive home instead of flying. I hate to drive long trips, and I found a cheap flight. Did I book it? NOOOOOO! She doesn't want to buy a ticket with the trip the following week. So, me and my wonky eye has to help her drive.   I'm still mad about this one.

mrsconn23

I've perfected the 'anxious butt clench' when driving with DH.  If he's really pissing me off with his driving, I'll say something.  I've been an anxious flyer for years.  It always makes me so nervous.

GBCK

This week has been hellish. And I feel unreasonably guilty over the fact that I have thought (and more or less said) 'damn,Ihope I'mnot PG" Not because I hope I'm not PG (I hope Iam. No, no POAS yet. to early)but because ofthe agony. If this is what PG willbelike for me? I don't thinkI can do it. I don't think I could handle 3 months, let allone 9. It's woresethan I feared. Oh, and Monday night? the mr. was working overtime, andI called himfrom the bedroom (he wasn't home--calledhis cell) to tell him to bring me vicoden, coke, and saltines when he got home. Because I didn't want to try to walkto the kitchen.

Mrs.Thistletwat

FIL has serious baby rabies and this weekend was his youngest daughter's wedding. He was already a wreck but any time anyone mentioned "baby" or "pregnant" he jumped and looked at me expectantly.Needless to say, the day I announce that I"m pregnant, I'm convinced that FIL will pee himself in excitement.

TheDuckis

H and I are staying out here for Thanksgiving and Christmas. We decided this year would be about setting low expectations for our families. I agree with him in concept, but I'm really going to miss Christmas.

GBCK

I'll also confess that theONLY reason I haven't shared some work gossip on here is because I"m sitting at thecomputer of the person who I'd be gossiping about. I'll have to share whenI'mnot here. (and the space bar on ths computer sticks funmny)

tawillers

I'm the same way with H's driving and it piisses him right off.
