I don't like the cover art for my friend's book that comes out next year. She loves it and that's all that matters. I'll read the book no matter what I think of the cover though.
Besides the obvious reasons for wanting this baby to stay in as long as possible, i.e. health reasons, me not being ready for a second child, etc., i'd really like to have the timing just right to where my 8 to 10 weeks off would span over both Thanksgiving and Christmas. It would be nice to have a few holidays off for once.
I think about hypothetical maternity leaves in my mind and what holidays and time frames I would have off.
No, they don't. They sell one kind, in the section next to the hair ties and emergency panty hose.
did you shit in your pants and the only pants available at this hour were jeans from the grocery store?
They caught my eye. I thought "yeah, that's the ticket. You've got your finger on the pulse of fashion, Shaws" and then placed them down next to the Annie's Mac n Cheese.

One of my friends planned her first pregnancy based on having the summer off since she's a teacher. She had 6 weeks of leave and then summer break started.
There's a place near here that advertises enormous cinnamon rolls and every since I heard about them it's all I can think about. So for like three days -- giant cinnamon bun.
I was so excited when S2 PT so I could park both boys at Smaland, buy a cinnamon roll, grab my free coffee and sit and read at Ikea. Yeah, unfortunately, S2 is terrified of Smaland and won't go. :poutyharry:
My dad & uncle are selling MH & I my grandfathers pontoon for ridiculously cheap. My dad keeps texting me talking about it as if MH will be the only one using it, telling me stuff to make sure MH knows about, bc obviously since I'm a girl I wont be able to operate the boat by myself & get it in & out of the water & MH will be the main owner/user of the boat.
So I FFC that I immediately set up this weekend with my brother to show me the ropes. I also set it up so that when we do the transfer, the boat will go in my name, not MHs.
Watch me, motherfucker. Thats about to be MY boat.
Inspired by the bday party discussion yesterday...I forget DH's birthday almost every year. I always end up making him a cake or some type of dessert because I don't remember soon enough to order anything.
Last night at work, I get a call from the security office. I answer the phone in a funny voice because we have a hilarious rapport. It was actually my boss calling from their office. He was very confused, but I think I played it off well. At least I hope I did.

Because I love you, I'm going to tell you a little secret. In your smart phone is a calendar. In that calendar you can set appointments and dates along with alerts ahead of time.
theseaword, are those your well loved Louboutins? Because, if so, I'd like to commend you. I think nothing elevates the look of grocery store jeans like good shoes.

Glad to hear you say that. This whole post is designed to drum up interest in my forthcoming fashion blog.

I got to enjoy this exact holiday scenario with my maternity leave 2yrs ago. I was out 11/10 - 1/19. While it was nice, it wasn't amazing. It was a lot of shuffle and stress doing holidays with multiple family locations and days (all within 20miles of each other) with a newborn. Not to mention I was worried about sick family members too! Damn winter months!
My opinion is probably skewed as we also dealt with the death of my MIL (cancer) at the beginning of December.
