I made a healthy fruit snack recipe I found on Pinterest. It turned out gross, no flavor and more spongey than fruit chewy. I read the comments on her blog post, and everyone else had the same problem. No one had results like her photos. I hate click bait like that.

Somehow my ex-husband found out that I'm pregnant and will not stop blowing up my phone with text messages. Apparently I'm going to hell and the devil is inside of me and we will always be married in the eyes of the Lord.

He's gone off the deep end with this religious stuff.

Ew. Can you block his number or do you need to be able to maintain contact?

I don't need to maintain any contact with him. I'm going to contact Verizon today and see about blocking his number. .

It's Monday and it's freezing and it won't stop snowing and I have work and school all day. Enough said.

[silentsara]

I just drank my glucola...yuck. I got my tdap. Shit just got real, yo. In 12 or so weeks, I'm going to have 2u2. I'll never sleep or be able to pee alone again.

Dh new job originally said that the insurance kicks in immediately. But he found out today while filling out the paperwork that it will kick in after 60 days. Now what?!!

OMG what a crazy!  Do you have an iphone?  You can do it without contacting Verizon on an iphone.

I do have an iPhone but didn't know I could block him from there. How do I do that?

I'm challenged when it comes to technology.

t1green Go to your contacts, choose his name, it should bring up his number and other info, scroll to the bottom of that page and you'll see block this caller. He won't be able to text you anymore and your phone won't ring when he calls, he will be able to leave you voice mails though.

I have a friend who started getting really upset when she started ttc when it didn't happen in the first month or two. Then she had a few months when her period was "late" and she said she miscarried each time (even though there was no confirmation of pregnancy and her period was just a few days later than she expected it).

Then she had a baby.

This weekend when I finally announced on facebook that I'm pregnant, part of her reply included hoping that it could happen for her. They aren't even ttc but she made it sound like they have been struggling with infertility/loss.

I just don't get it and it irritates me.

I hate it when people pull this crap. I don't know if they are just ignorant and don't really understand or if they are just attention seekers. Either way, I'm really sorry.

DH and I have been sharing one car since mine took a major dump (cracked head gasket immediately after we spent 1400 replacing the radiator and some other stuff) almost a year ago and it has really been wearing on the car. Just since November we have had to fix a giant hole in the exhaust, repair a strut that punched up through the wheel well lining, get all new tires (including the spare), and now the damn brakes. I'm sick of it!!!!! I just want to get my car fixed, but now it's been sitting so long there's probably a zillion other things wrong with it. Ugh!

Verizon is good about blocking numbers easily. You can actually go online and do it from where you pay your bill.

Ohhhh boy it is starting to sink in how down to the wire I am for so many things!! Baby is coming so soon now, and on top of that I have to adjust to quitting my job, and acing my classes, and taking the TEAS and getting some stupid beaurocratic red tape nonsense figured out so I can get my nursing school application in on time! It's getting the stupid beaurocratic nonsense at the school figured out that is driving me crazy. A billion emails and tons of wasted time over something that should be so easy. I know I will manage to get it all done SOMEHOW but ugh. Sometimes I wish I could just fast forward through some of these more challenging/not that fun little stretches of life.

The weather was stupidly nice yesterday, so I walked a mile to the frozen yogurt place with my kids only to find out when we got there that they didn't open for another hour. I even checked the hours before we went online, but they had this sign that said "Winter hours" on the door. My 3yo was so disappointed, and I had a really hard time convincing her that an hour is too long to wait outside the door. There wasn't anything nearby to kill time with and it was 11:00 and I hadn't brought any snacks, because frozen yogurt!

At least it was a nice walk. But I hate how nothing is open on Sunday in the Midwest, and it's always during naptime. 12:00-4 hours are useless to me!

It's Monday. After taking Friday off and hardly doing anything this weekend, I'm finding it really hard to concentrate at work today.

What a disappointment! I hate when websites dont have up to date information!

I suppose on the bright side, I got exercise for once and didn't spoil it with sweets I didn't need.  I could have rolled with it better, but I get so irrationally angry when DD is let down.

Grammy bitchfest: I'm so sick of Beyoncé and everyone kissing her ass all the time. Sure, she is a great artist but other artists deserve recognition too!

[dukwok]

I fucking hate Mondays, commuting, insomnia, my inlaws, glucose tests, and hot weather in February (but I am sorry for those who have to deal with the snow).

[mpiemont]

I woke up with acid reflux that was like I had just taken 5 shots of whiskey- burning throat first thing in the morning!? I haven't even eaten anything in 10 hours. Blech

Haha! I was laughing last night when Beck won best album. The look on hers and Jay-Z's faces were beyond priceless! Sorry...you can't win them all!

[lgsdesigner]

We met my mom and stepdad for dinner the other day, and she had the nerve to order my favorite alcoholic beverage and drink two of them in front of me: margarita on the rocks with salt.
Order a beer or something else I don't care about!!

My bitch is that I've been having nightly meltdowns since Thursday. I'm just really upset with myself. I've been struggling with my blood pressure going up and down like a yo-yo this whole pregnancy (never had BP issues before) - this weekend I was just three points below where my doctor says I have to go in - and then I got news that I failed the 1 hour sugar test so I have the 3 hour this Friday. And I flat out bombed it and I had a lot of other risk factors so I'm expecting a GD diagnosis. I just feel like my main responsibility right now is to keep me and baby safe and healthy and I'm not doing a good job of it. I knew there could be issues since I'm overweight (I lost 35 lbs before getting pregnant, just wasn't expecting to get pregnant quite so soon so I thought I'd lose more weight before then!) and I've been trying to eat healthy and watch calories but I've gained 25 lbs this pregnancy and I have no idea where they're coming from. Just really angry and frustrated with myself right now. I feel like I'm failing my baby already DF is being super-supportive and sweet, I'm just putting a lot of pressure on myself. Which is probably not helping my stupid BP numbers.

Monday can suck my imaginary dick so hard right now.
Glucose test was easy, blood test and urine test - too easy.
The cunt at the pharmacy who 'refused' to serve me my prescription maternity pressure pantyhose becuase 'due to her being the only one there, I have to make an appointment"
To lecture me and FI, listen cunt we don't give a fuck about your made up rules, and your power binge.
She finally measures me and says, that's $180 each. Umm excuse me. We were not told this, that is why I have a prescription.
We left to confirm with my OB who unfortunately cannot control the prices the pharm states (this bitch is making some on the side I think)
So my lovely FI told her I stick them and we will go somewhere else.
But I cried
She didn't speak very good English and spoke really fast like rude bitches do so when you ask to repeat herself she act like you're the idiot who cannot understand her. She had the nerve to grab a piece of paper and write what she was saying!!!
Ugh so I'm at work and I just need to "whooooosaaaaaaaaah"
Relax
Sorry for venting but I needed that.
Love you guys, fist bumps

Wow. What a selfish bitch!
Eta I know she's your friend. I'm sorry. I didn't mean it like she was always a bitch. Just in this situation.

The thing is, she's not at all. She's an amazingly kind, generous person. But her perspective on her own fertility baffles me.

And it's hard to hear her talk about the babies she "lost" when I'm convinced she just doesn't know when she ovulated.

I understand.  When I had my early loss my BFF who I love to death and has been an amazing friend for years tried to tell me that she understood because her "always regular period" was 4 days late and that she had had a loss, even though she took a FRER and it was negative.  I wanted to scream.  Not the same thing as testing positive for days and then bleeding.  


Sorry you're dealing with that.

Did anyone else notice Kanye jump up on the stage when Beck beat Beyonce for best album? I started laughing that he was going to do it again. The news mentioned him controlling himself better this time.

Eta: already covered, I see. I didn't finish the thread...
