Although I said that I was excited about not having any more lurker intros, I'd rather have y'all jump in and participate, than stay on the sidelines. In my opinion the same is true for old regs who aren't active anymore. If you followed us over here just to lurk, you need to find something better to do with your time.
Don't know why but this comment pissed me off, I think we all could be doing better things with our time. I came over here, thinking I might participate more, but even shiny and new I'm not feeling it.
This would be the place where I would air my grievances before I leave, but you know, too much drama for one week.
So GBCB? What do we call this now? GBCF14?
I mean, sorry you're upset. You can absolutely choose whether you participate.
But to answer your question? No. Sometimes I don't have anything better to do with my time.
I have an office event Tuesday that will cause me to get home after LO's bedtime. I'm excited about this because for once I don't have to be the one getting dinner ready and getting LO to bed on time.

I put all of my kids round toys away for the time being. I am so sick of fishing them out from under the couches and chasing them into different rooms. When he learns to bring things back They can make a reappearance but I'm tired of playing fetch.

I used to think lurkers were a bit creepy in a harmless way (I used to be a hardcore lurker), but after seeing the way the parenting lurkers rallied in protest as the bannings swept across parenting, I feel all sorts of warm fuzzies for lurkers.
Oh! I have another one! Some FB friends are being (in my opinion) really dumb and participating in an anti-cheese thing until after the big Seahawks/Packers came (because against Cheeseheads?). Cheese is delicious, and refraining from eating it will not in any way impact the outcome of the game. Plus, I doubt that Packer fans aren't abstaining from Starbucks or whatever in the meantime. Tldr: I have dumb friends.

Someone I know on fb had a baby last week. She has 3 other kids and posted about doing the laundry, dishes, and shoveling the snow. I couldn't help but roll my eyes. The only thing I could do at 1 week pp is attempt to keep crumbs off LO's head.

Plus I feel like 1 week pp you really shouldn't be shoveling...

I'm having anxiety because I'm having a hard time keeping up. I haven't figured the app out, and I won't over the weekend, and I'm going to miss something, and then what will happen?!?!
This may be the dumbest reason to have anxiety ever. I think I'm being silly.
And I can think of plenty of worse things to do with my time than to talk to my friends all day.
Also, I'm too lazy to make a birthday ticker that I'll have to remake in 3 weeks.
I spent time making one last night because it made me sad that E's didn't get to reach the end before we "left" but then I couldn't figure out how to put it in my Siggy. #dumbthingstocareabout
I just tried swaddling R to see if I remembered how. He was not amused.
I did this when lo was like 6 months. He was pissed. And then let my husband swaddle me in a sheet to see if he could. He could. And I couldn't get out

That's pretty amazing swaddling skills he has there.

My FFFC: I have a dedicated cup for peeing in for pregnancy tests. I've taken so many the past year because freaked out I might be KU. I always rinse it, but it justs sits there on the shelf. I've not told DH what it is for, so for all I know he uses to to brush his teeth.
MY DEEP DARK SECRET FFFC: I was always too scared to mention it back when we were all pregnant, but I never gained any weight. In fact, I weighed two pounds less when I delivered than at my first weigh in. I'm really overweight, so I was actually following my Drs orders by not gaining, but I was still panicked about it the whole time. I kept wanting to talk about it on here but was too afraid of upsetting people/getting flamed. So I somehow feel I've been keeping it a secret the whole time from you guys.
innanni - I don't think that's anything to hide. I was just a lurker during pregnancy but if I had to pick a favorite F14 moment, it would be the fierce attackers of the weight discussions. Your post actually proves the point - everyone gains (or loses) a different amount and it's a waste of time to compare. Our bodies are different and need different things. There is just no point in comparing. That's awesome you were able to accomplish what your doctor wanted.
I found what appeared to be a smooshed turd in my hoodie pocket. After squeezing it and smelling it, I still couldn't figure out 1) how it got there or 2) if it was really poop. So I flushed it and the little poop particles in my pocket down the toilet.
