1. Totes plan on leaving work early to go to target so i dont have to fight the crowds during the weekend.
2. I don't plan on shaving my legs again til i hit 39 weeks or go into labor. Whichever is first. I stopped for 6 weeks,finally gave in and that was 3 weeks ago. My toes however, will need to be painted before i go into labor because I'm a weirdo like that.
After a late night in the hospital and a late night at dinner celebrating H making promotion points, LO has gone to sleep with the TV on for the past 2 nights. He falls asleep so much faster and he's overly tired at 10 p.m.

I vote treat yourself to a pedicure right before. I'm always so embarrassed they'll feel all my leg stubble that I force myself to shave extra well. Win/win for you!

I'm supposed to be at work in 18 minutes. I'm still in my bathrobe. Work is about an hour away. I don't think I've been on time all week. I don't care, either.

That was totally me last time (I'm a SAHM now). One day I rolled in "only" 10-15 minutes late and my boss was impressed that I was so close to on time. Whoops.

I don't even SEE my boss in the morning. I've got one of those "as long as the work is done" jobs, which I'm currently very grateful for.

My husband is OOT for work for the next 5 days and I'm slightly looking forward to having the house to myself. Don't have to worry about fixing proper dinners, can wear my jammies all weekend, and can watch all of my shows that he hates.
He used to go in these trips a lot more often but hasn't in awhile. I think some time apart occasionally for spouses is a nice way to kinda recharge yourself with some alone time.
Married April 2010 :: TTC May 2012
Cycle #22: IUI#2 = BFP 3/15/14; mmc at 6w4d; D&C on 4/4/14
Cycle #25: IUI #3 on 06/14/14 = BFP on 6/27/14! EDD 3/7/15
We are having a BOY!
My mother drives me crazy but I still let her come over to help with my daughter when my husband is at work because I'm too lazy/tired to cook anymore and she will clean up after me.
I fall asleep almost daily at work. I have a small couch in my office (because I'm totally Don Draper from Mad Men). I think I'm going to institute a daily nap time starting in February because I can only imagine this sleepiness thing will get worse with each week I'm pregnant.
I'm supposed to be at work in 18 minutes. I'm still in my bathrobe. Work is about an hour away. I don't think I've been on time all week. I don't care, either.
This was me this morning too. I got to work just before 9:30. Oops. Luckily my boss is in another state and knows I get my work done, so....yeah. Getting ready in the morning is really hard.
Not sure if I've confessed this before, but I am looking forward to my FIL dying or being so incapacitated by medical conditions that he can't interact with my kid.
If it weren't pay day I would call in sick today because I don't want to deal with work. My co-therapist has been out all week and I've been picking up more of her slack than I usually have to. It's very aggravating. But I have to get my check so we can pay the car insurance due Monday.
I'm also toying with the idea of getting Arby's after work to reward myself, but it's not GD friendly. So we'll have to see if work sucks out all of the remaining fucks I have left to give, or just a few of them.

I gotta say, I don't hate it when my husband goes out of town for the weekend. Even though he is a big help with our son, I like having the house to myself.
My FFFC: I'm hoarding Chik Fil A Honey Roasted BBQ Sauce. I don't know when I'll need it. But when I do, there will be at least 100 packets of it waiting for me.
It's truly a fear of mine that my glutinous slobby self (Marchbaby's words, not mine), that on my weekly trip to Chik Fil A, I'll get home with my lunch and they will have forgotten my sauce. So I always ask for extra, and even though I only use one packet, the rest goes in my stash.

I felt exactly the same way about my ex-MIL. When she did die (XH and I were still married at the time), I felt no sadness, but just a huge sense of relief that I didn't have to deal with her anymore.
I'm so happy my mom will be here for 6 weeks because I'm really tired and I know she will cook dinner for us and most likely keep our house straightened while I'm at work.

Yeah, this is one of my deep, dark secrets. I have nightmare (very toxic) ILs, so I kind of look forward to this too.

I give literally no fucks about work anymore, but I'm going to ask for a title change that's essentially a promotion anyway. Because they have no choice and owe me after 6 years of busting my ass. (This isn't going to stop me from easing up on the late nights and overtime once my baby is born either.)
I've never had cookie butter and don't get the obsession.

Once you've had the cookie butter, you'll understand the obsession.
I personally have only purchased one jar, ever. Because I know me and I know I have no willpower.

I ate risotto and entemann's pastry for breakfast and gave no fucks about it.
I'm sorry for all of you who have or had douchey/creepy in laws. I wish I could feel that way about my step monster but she and DS have such a good relationship I'd hate for him to lose that...
I am ungrateful. My "godmother" ( not sure if I can use that term anymore since I'm no longer Catholic) gifted me a subscription to an "experts advice on parenting" monthly mail newsletter. It has me so pissed off that I'm calling in to cancel the subscription. I give none shits if it cost her $. Do not tell me how to parent. She also signed me up for a different parenting email newsletter. I've already unsubscribed myself from that bullshit.

pele I feel you. I'm currently enjoying having my FIL blocked way more Than I should be. The man is a narcissistic dick and I'm over it. He tells us about his sex life, and just eww. He then asks for details about ours, umm fuck no dude that's creepy. He also keeps telling me that we "have to have another child, b/c he HAS to have a boy to carry on the family name." H is a 4th, and it was ending there if this kid was a boy, plus with how hard this pregnancy has been there will be no more children. Hubs gets snipped in March.
I talked to our close friend that's his ex-gf and the shit he pulled and wrote her about makes me more done, he basically stalked her new guys Facebook and sent her a 6 page typed letter bashing the guy, his friends, his family, his looks, and then demanded to know about their intimacy, etc. I told her if it was me I'd get a restraining order on his ass (he keeps calling and texting after she tol him to no longer communicate with her).
I look forward to my husband having to explain to him that he's not allowed at the birth (he was going to take just born pictures, but nope I refuse), and if he wants to visit he needs to bring receipts that he got a flu shot and TDap (he'd be one to lie about it, and he's in Mexico all the time). The man is going to be pissed, but I don't give a fuck. I guess this turned more into a vent than a confession, but I agree with pele on the FIL thing.

holy shit that guy sounds like a nightmare! I'm glad you have your DH's support in standing up to him and limiting him from your lives. No way Jose would I want that man anywhere near my delivery room.

Uh oh do I need to get some at Trader Joes right now? I might go there this weekend....
When there were long threads on the bump that I didn't have time to read, I would skim for posts with love tits to get the highlights. I'm going to miss being able to quickly see that on this board.
