Ok..I'm going first...I have orientation for school today at 10 am (so like in an hour)...no clue what to wear...They have a dresscode while you're not in scrubs and it looks like business casual but I also saw some people wear denim with a nice top...so I guess that is what I'm going to wear...it's finally chilly here so I can wear a sweater!  (high of 64!!!)

Also, of course my voice decides to crack and be stupid today...It hurts to cough...wonderful..trying to make a good impression on my teachers!!  gah....

OMG!! I just noticed my ticker says 6mo. 3wks, &3 days...oh my...the last time I looked at it, it said 7 months...oh deary...haha guess it's time to get back into planning mode!!

FI and I have been bickering and fighting over stupid little things for a week and a half now, and most of it is because I've been in a bad mood for that long. At first I thought that I was just PMSing last week, which was probably true, but now it's dragging on into this week and it's so annoying! It's like an irritable mood that I can't shake. I have no patience, the smallest things set me off, I've been awful to him for a week and a half and it's making us both miserable. We haven't fought like this in well over two years, so I don't know what the problem is right now

I am at my parents for few days and my dog, a yellow lab, keeps sneaking around and laying on couches. He knows he's not supposed to, but he still does it. At our house, we keep stools on the couches so he can't jump on them. He is not even acting like he is doing anything wrong when we find him on couches. We just prefer to not let him on furnitures because we live on a farm and it gets dirty out there, he likes to roll in manure at times too and he sheds. Grrrrr. Ideas??

Aw I'm sorry you're dealing with this! I was going through something similar a few months ago and it's pretty sh!tty... for me and FI. Of course maybe it's nothing more than our lovely hormones shifting around, but has anything changed for you or both of you lately? More stress? Eating habits? Different meds? When this happened to me I realized after the 3rd or 4th month that it could be because of my BC, my clinic had switched brands on me though they were supposed to be exactly alike. Well turns out it wasn't and it made me a complete wreck around my week. We fought and argued alllll the time! It was awful! I decided to switch back to my regular BC to test my theory and everything went back to normal. I still get a bit irritable around those days or course, but it's not anything crazy like I had been experiencing before. Think back and see if anything that has happened lately could be affecting your system. Hope you start feeling back to your normal self soon! :D

We have to do this too! We have a huge weimaraner and he thinks he is a lap dog. He runs free on our land too and always gets so dirty so we have to keep chairs on the couches to keep him off! Unfortunately, I have no suggestions ): We've had him for 7 years now and he doesn't learn. If we forget to put a chair up for 5 minutes he's already laying on the couch. UGH.

Thanks Nati! I'm not on any meds at all except for the same allergy meds that I've been taking for like a decade haha. My diet hasn't changed (other than the addition of some Christmas goodies lately), nor has my work out routine, or really anything else in my life. The only thing that I was thinking was that it could be because of holiday stress but my most stressful week for that was the week before last haha, so I have no clue! Maybe I'm stressed about something and I don't even realize it. All I know is that I'm tired of feeling like this and fighting all the time, but it's almost like I have no control over it, it's so weird.

So work closes tomorrow and Friday and today my only student cancelled, meaning I'll be at home the next three days. Super exciting for me, I think "now I can do what I want!" BUT it doesn't always feel that way with FI. Sometimes when I'm at home I feel pressured like I have to constantly be doing something house or our business related and I feel a little panicky when it's almost time for FI to come home and not everything has been done. Not at all because he's a jerk but we've argued about this before and I guess the feeling just lingers.

Plus since we've started our business and I have to be the face of the company because he's still at his job, I have to get as many meetings as possible and make a billion phone calls. Which the phone calls still make me nervous because of language issues. Sometimes I don't understand people well over the phone, or I understood something wayy too late for me to correctly respond to, I'll mispronounce something cuz I'm nervous and then worry the other person will think what kind of a professional am I.. annoying crap like that. So I haaaate making important phone calls in Spanish and I will admit sometimes I avoid making them if I can and send an email instead or visit in person.

Then FI gets on my back about stuff I didn't do, stuff I forget to do, things I do incorrectly and jumps on me because it means "I don't care about the business, it's all a game for me". Reallly irritating. He says if he had afternoons off, or had a whole day he would be calling and visiting companies non-stop. Which I'm sure he would. He's been doing this for 6 years, people know him and he is practically a natural at it! I sure hope he'd be able to do it! But with me.. I guess it all comes down to I simply don't feel confident or prepared enough to take on everything he expects me to. I've never worked professionally in Spanish, it's like a whole other language, and I know nothing about advertising. It's so embarassing for me to pretend I'm the owner of this when I'm really not and it probably shows. FI is always telling me "you have to make them believe you are the owner. You have to BE the owner, believe it yourself" But how am I supposed to believe it when he calls allll the shots. I have to constantly check back with him if there's a decision to be made on something, because he never likes my decisions. Yet he's always saying I have to call my own shots. Obviously not true. I don't feel like an owner when I get chewed out over something I could have done "better". It's a huge contradiction working with him (or rather for him as I like to call it) and it stresses me out. We argue soo much about this that there's really not much else that can be done at this point. I'm just waiting for the day we get our first big enough advertising project that will allow him to leave his job and he can take care of the rest himself. *sigh* That being said, this wasn't supposed to be so long sorry. I'm now late and gotta get going on those phone calls. He'll be asking about them soon..

I don't have any real vents excepted I had a bad stomach bug this week and that sort of ruined my vacation. Oh and our former cake person who couldn't get me a contract for 3 weeks is now harassing me for an answer. Oh well we booked elsewhere and I'll just wait for another email from her to tell her she didn't get the gig.

Isn't that annoying?! Kinda makes you want to rub it in their face how much it sucks not hearing back! Lol

No WTFs for me today but good thoughts and vibes are sent your way, Ceglare! A bit  of un-asked-for advice though. When I've gone through spells like that it usually helps me to not even necessarily think about why i'm irritable but about what do I need to feel better....typically I can figure that one out; whether it's a hot bath and some time with a good book, some girl time with my friends, or a trip to the gym or kickboxing class.

My only vent is that I had to go for routine bloodwork this morning and the technician had to stick me twice UGHHHH.  I'm so pale, you can see my veins from across the room!

I also hit up some stores to stock up on clearance Christmas decor and I got SO MUCH STUFF for less than $100.  Thank you Target, Marshalls, and Kohl's! 

Also, also, I finished and stuffed my invitations yesterday!  YAY!

Same here, when I was in the ER last week, the nurse completely missed my vein by like ten inches and then she said that we couldn't do it on my left arm so she stabbed me again on my right arm. My veins are big and clear, I still can't believe she missed!
