I'm chillin in the waiting room at the hospital while H gets cut open. I just made it in time to get a kiss (had to talk my way back). I'm excited that it is game time. If this goes really well he might be discharged today

I got roped into breakfast with my in-laws. They are perfectly nice people, but their marriage and relationship is so weird that it's always awkward hanging out with them together.
Back-story: DHs parents are married but living seperately. His mom lives around the corner from us and his dad has a condo across town. When I first met DH his parents seemed like they were at least dating and would hang out together on weekends. In the past 6 months or so things have definitely gone down hill and they barely speak. His dad is a relatively well known public figure in town so he's always out and about and my MIL is always home alone and depressed. I guess it's just sad to watch because my MIL is clearly in love with a man who treats her like crap. It's no way to live.
It's been a rough month. It's the teething I think. But just overall this stage has been super tough on both of us. It's alright, though, I shouldn't complain!! I feel a little guilty bringing up DD on the GKU board; I feel like I'm being inconsiderate. So I'm really sorry to y'all if it's rubbing you the wrong way. Sometimes I feel like all I do is talk about her

I can by no means speak for everyone else... But it doesn't really bother me when people talk about their LOs. If that makes you feel better.
MH and I talked about our plans for when the weather warms up. We have a long list of stuff to do with the house this summer and it feels overwhelming even though 99% of it is going to be MH, my brother, and my father-in-law...

Aw that is really sad. I have a similar situation with my own parents. I hope she will eventually gain the self-confidence and self-respect to find someone who treats her better.

I think it is okay. This isn't an infertility board, and lots of people have children. We all talk about things/people that aren't related to TTC... If we didn't, the board would only be WTO and TWW. All of that said, I can't really imagine surviving on that little sleep.

Yes, that is sad. I hope she figures out what would make her happy.
She's selling her house and closing is supposed to be next monday. She's actually writing a big check to get rid of the house, so to try to save her money we are going to move everything with our own vehicles vs. renting a truck.
That is nice of you to help out. You should reward yourself with donuts!

Yes, that's exactly it. She has no confidence at all.
Ugh. I was alone in the waiting room and now there is another family. They came and sat right by me and they keep talking and coughing and calling people. Why sit so close to me? I feel like it would be rude to get up and move.

I usually do the "get up to stretch my legs in the hallway, then sit in a different spot when i come back in" tactic.

Ummmm no it wouldn't. They are the ones being disruptive.
Ha. I moved, but I don't think they noticed. There are signs up everywhere that this is a "quiet zone" but nobody enforcing that because it is the weekend

It doesn't bug me either. She's a major part of your life, you shouldn't hide her. It would only be weird to be discussing things if you said it was your roommate that kept you up all night with her teething. -That's just my opinion though.

mugster Hope everything goes well with surgery and he can leave today!
Gooooood morning everyone. I'm still in bed at 840 so lazy Sunday for sure. DH is going for a run right now and DS is still sleeping because he didn't go to bed until after 9. I just want all the breakfast food so I'm going to make pancakes, eggs, and bacon! If I can ever get out of this cozy bed.

Umm do we have the same in-laws?! Crazy! Mine are married and living separately. MIL lives a block from us and FIL in a condo across town. They were together when DH and I met and that all fell apart, FIL had been with someone else. They totally aren't together, but he stops over there every day (friendly I guess?) and I doubt they'll ever end up getting divorced. And MIL is torn up about the whole thing and just deals with the way he treats her.
Engaged May 2003 Married June 2005 TTC #1 since October 2014 H-1% morph, low motility, low count Me-.1 AMH levels, low AFC, DOR/POI, perimenopause Foster Care journey begins March 2016-licensed 11/7/16 Foster parents to A & J 1/31/17 www.fertilityfriend.com/home/5525ef
Also, working on getting the house more in order. We live at our inlaws but they dont live here (someday it will be rent to own...long story) and they stil have a lot of their stuff here. Makes it hard to find room for our stuff. So we have gotten fed up with their procrastination and getting more of it done so when they come visit they may actually not feel so overwhelmed and work on crap.
So far 2.5 rooms/areas are done with a 3rd area almost done just in last couple werks.

Morning all. I am pretty sure I have pulled/strained/hurt every muscle in my body. But today: more yard work! And maybe grocery shopping! So much for a lazy Sunday.
@muster fingers crossed everything goes well and he gets to go home today!
