Wake up! Confessions

louisvillebride21

I'm hiding $700 bucks from H until our anniversary trip

We have one wedding picture in our whole house, so I just spent $50 on frames and another $40 from Shutterfly. Whoops.

I confess that I have a credit union account with almost $1000 in it and H doesn't know anything about it. I have had it since I started teaching and I deposit money in it every payday.

I also confess that I fell asleep on purpose last night, so to not have sex, and this morning I felt guilty.

We don't have any wedding pictures in our house, or even purchased.  They are already paid for, we just need to pick them out.

LVB - that is more than we have. Our wedding pics are still at my parents house. We still have to decide which ones to order from our photographer. I am such a slacker.

My confession is that the more I think things through, I really don't want to live with the IL's when we move back home. I know it will only be temporarily b/c we are not going to have time to search for a place of our own this weekend.

They live about 45 min away from the city which is where H's job will be and likely mine as well. I dread thinking about rush hour traffic in the mornings again. I haven't had to deal with it for several years now b/c with my old job, I walked to work.

I confess I use my credit card way more than I tell Fl about.  He doesn't think people should have credit cards, and I cut my old one up so I couldn't have the convenience of swiping it (but still had the ability to use the number online).  And it worked well, but then they sent me a new chip card...

I confess that I still get upset over the fact that the company I worked for hired an internal candidate over me when I originally applied for a Conference Service Manager position. The woman is incompetent and had never planned events before. I was an event planner while interviewing for that position. It irritates me daily that they picked this woman over me. Especially when she talks down to me and won't listen to any of the suggestions I give her to make her life (and her clients' lives) easier.

i had a good confession this morning on the drive into work.  but, now i forget.

ArmyofUs

I confess that I'm not going to miss FBIL while he's deployed.  I'll worry, but I won't miss him.  He's a flaming D bag.

We are right there together. I was so excited to start and then I caught this cold that I can't seem to shake. Maybe next week.

I confess that I have no desire to hang up wedding pictures, or really any pictures of myself, in my house.  I'm not 100% sure why we paid so much money to buy the rights to our pictures.  Maybe I'll be glad I can show them to my kid someday.

I worry almost every day that I'm not really still pregnant.

SarahR. DENY. DENY. DENY. That request.

DENY.

oh man, kiki. EYE TO EYE. I just said to Mr P last night "What if it's just some kind of crazy infection?"

No worries, LTB. I know how that kinda thing goes.

And I hope you have a great birthday weekend!

manda, I know how you feel- it was way worse before the first u/s.  I kept saying that the u/s was just going to show an old french fry in my uterus or something. 

It's a little easier now, but... well, I still wonder.  I mean, you can't TELL.  And it's just... WEIRD.

SarahR. I get a request from my ex roughly every 6 months and I go through the same thing. I think he just wants to see wedding pics and check up on H, but I have no desire to check up on him. I'm a nosy person, but I couldn't care less about him and I dont want him to be my fb friend.

However, all these TK girls are my friends and I dont even know them. I guess I'd rather be friends with strangers than be his friend.

Ignore that request.

I second Fish's emotion. From experience. Except I was just stalking. I had to block to stop stalking.

My confession is at a seminar/conference for Administrative Assistants yesterday, the leader's message was so personalized and heartfelt, that it seemed like she was speaking directly to me, and it took all I had not to bawl my eyes out (and one of her subjects was controlling emotions at work, duh).

And then I cried and cried at the end of Criminal Minds. CRIMINAL MINDS.

On a totally unrelated confessional note, I am making my first ever trip to IKEA on Saturday. We're taking a day trip to MSP with a friend to do some kitchenware shopping.

LTB - and as far as the gym thing goes....well, I go and still can't seem to shake the weight. I want to give up, but know that I feel better when I go. I still believe that the answer to my problems is to hire a personal trainer. I wish we were rich.

I don't have any of my wedding pictures either.  I keep meaning to but there is no money to pay for prints right now.  At all.

I confess that my H's sex drive has gone way down since we got married.  And I've tried to talk to him about it so many times, but he just says he "doesn't know why."  I don't know if it's because I gained a few pounds after we got married, or if he's just stressed with work and his EMT classes, or the move, or what, but I feel terrible that we can't put a finger on it.  I know he still loves me, he's very affectionate and he hasn't changed at all in that respect.  I just...don't know. 

Sorry if that was TMI.

I confess that I'm terrified to meet any knotties IRL. I'm so worried no one would like me. At the same time, I'm worried I'd have finally met some awesometastic friends and then I'd have to wait a really long time to see them again.

UM NEVER BEING IKEA SHOULD BE A CONFESSION. 

WHO HAS NEVER BEEN TO EYE-KEY-AH?

It seems like sex is the talk of the board today.

I had never been until November '09. And I was only in there for about 15 minutes. It was torture. The closest Ikea is in Atlanta, I think. I wish there was one here =(

mandapanda78

A french fry kiki!! I just laughed. A lot. "Would you like to see your bab-.... oh. It's just a french fry."

[Deleted User]

I have never been in an IKEA store. I have seen their catalog. Does that count?

I hear there is a really nice one in Charlotte that is easier to get to than the one in Atlanta.

[Deleted User]

And there is one down in Cincy OH. Maybe H and I can go to that one sometime after we move.

I hope you don't think I'm rich because I meet with a trainer.

<------this girl barely has two pennies to rub together, and today is payday.

Babestate - It's a role reversal with us. I'm the one with no sex drive. He always wants it. I've never been super sexual, but recently I dont want sex. I'd rather lay in bed and read my nook. I actually get ANNOYED when he tries to initiate. I feel like a horrible wife. I think it's a mix of my meds, his meds (takes him forever to get off...sorry for the tmi) and then stress and my weight.

I love him to pieces and not having him around would be horrible, but I'm just not feeling sex. It's not like I'm self servicing and just dont want him to help...I'm just not excited...ever. I suck.

Wow, that was a lot of TMI, sorry kids!

[Deleted User]

mk - no, no I don't think you are rich by any stretch of the imagination.

I just know they are super expensive and H would never let me get one since things are so tight right now. I just hope we can both join a gym once we move since he will have more of an office/desk job and *hopefully* won't be as worn out when he comes home as he is now.

That's not a bad thing! Last night's episode was pretty emotional.

I confess that a lot of really random things make me want to cry lately. I've even POAS just to make sure, but that's not it. I think I'm just frustrated with life right now.

KiKI and Manda, when those babies start rocking and rolling around, I promise you it will feel REAL! hehe

Missy, my only advice for you as far as IKEA goes, is don't get pulled in by the "little things". H and I went there a couple of months ago and I walked out with 40 scented tea lights and I have absolutely nowhere to put them. IKEA gets me every time.
