For fun: Reasons a mommy drinks

[lakecountrygal]

1. Because her kid spent all afternoon trying to jump out of the boat into the lake!

2. Because she's taking a big test and is stressed.

3. Because daddy acts like another child.

1.) Because our franchise owner visited today (the visit went really well though).
2.) Because I have picked up the same package of fruit snacks 4 times, and somehow she keeps getting the box...
3.) Because big sister gave LO her talking princess wand, and all day for two days I've heard "wave the wand, wave, wa, wa, wave, wave the, wave the wand to choose an activity" as LO waves it and pushes the buttons over, and over, and over again.

1. Do we NEED reasons?
2. I just like a little bubbly here and there!
3. BC I'm drinking up BEFORE we TTC later this summer!
4. A glass of wine is good for the heart!

1: work, yearly evaluations are due tomorrow and I have 13 people I am writing evals on
2: Have a contract on the house, and the buyers realtor is an idiot. not turning in important paperwork to the lender, demanding we put in a new septic system when the current one is fine.
3: the rain, ALL THE DAMN RAIN!!!
4: I am raising two children, DD and Dada
5: just because I want to

[bebeski]

1) I agree with the reoccurring theme of raising 2 kids - DD and Da
2) Whining. All the time.
3) the stress of finding a new job, moving and flying with a super active toddler.

1. Because I was dumb enough to get a puppy while I have a 14 mo old baby and neither one of them listen to me.

1) because I have a new sign in my kitchen that says "We never drink wine unless we are alone or with someone" next to the wine rack.
2) because boss just handed me a case that goes to trial Monday which I know absolutely nothing about. and now I'm the attorney on the case. go baby shark go.
3) because it's summer and having a cold one on the front porch with DH while the sun sets is heaven
4) because LO is getting to that 'mommy mommy mommy' phase, where if I'm around no one else holding him will do.
5) because I listen to nothing except Margaritaville radio anymore, and picture myself at a fabulous resort while I'm listening.

I have another one

Because the teachers I have to deal with this summer have no clue what "developmentally appropriate" means or how to adjust lessons for children with no school experience at all.

The whining. It is constant. Ughhhhhh. I forgot how 10-18ish months is not an age I'm a fan of. I mean, the 2 year old whines, too, but it's somehow less nerve grating.

[kimberpoo]

human1 yessssss. omg, he is constantly making the 'eeeeehhhhhhaaaaahhhhwaaaaahhhhhhhhhh' sound. it gets so bad that DH will yell across the room "stop making that noise!"
