I not infrequently amend or explain my thoughts in case anyone can "overhear" them. Like, via mindreading. I figure if someone has the ability to read minds, they'd keep that on lockdown, right?! I mean, nothing good comes from anyone finding out!
Stopped by the bakery on my way to work this morning to grab dessert for dinner tonight. Was looking at a croissant or muffin for my morning treat. Ended up going with a gingerbread man. Eating it right now instead of breakfast.
At first glance I thought the Navy/Marine corps post said 18 months, not weeks. Because in Canada that would be news.
There was a post on my local FB group from someone looking for advice on how to extend her leave past a year and there were a bunch of comments about how hard it is to leave your kid when they are so young (12 months). I must confess I felt the same way before I knew all you ladies, now I just roll my eyes are those posts.
I hold grudges when certain friends don't acknowledge my kids bdays. And by that I mean either liking or commenting on one of the many pictures I post.
Oh man.... I'm sure I've missed a few lately!!! Forgive me if I have!!!!!!!!!
I live in fear of missing a happy birthday post on here. As a result, I don't typically post them myself but I try to love tit birthday announcement posts.
I don't obsess about family members acknowledging birthdays. I guess I would think, "Hmm, that's odd that we haven't heard from so-and-so" but I don't think I'd hold a grudge.
I brought DD into the world for my enjoyment and love, not anybody else's (except DH). If people do go above and beyond for her, that's great, but certainly not my expectation.
I don't have any decent red, white, and blue to wear tomorrow. Nor does DD now that I think about it, except for a bow that will likely get pulled out.

This is me. I think I may have done it for the first couple May birthdays but then I was afraid that I would offend someone when I forgot to wish a happy birthday so I just decided to not do it. I love all the babies though.
I am still wearing nursing bras. We weaned months and months ago.
I'm the opposite. I never found good nursing bras that I liked, and got sick of wasting money on expensive ones I hated, so I just used my regular bras once my supply regulated. For the most part anyways. Oddly enough, once my supply regulated with M my boobs were smaller than they were pre-pregnancy and my very comfy Victoria Secret bras fit again. I just pulled the strap down on my shoulder a bit and folded the cup down. I'm sure I wrecked them but they looked better and offered more support than any of the nursing bras I had tried.

I'm glad we're almost done with birthdays because I'm so afraid I missed someone. I'm sure I did, but it wasn't intentional. I think it's easier for me to get out of birthday mode since Miss A is May 30. I love all the babies! Happy birthday to any I missed!
I forgot to close the curtains and watched a very raunchy OITNB scene at a very popular kid-walking time of the day. My TV is easily seen from the street. Still not used to city life.
I'm totally ruined for ever living in the city. We could never do it now. I've gotten way too comfortable walking around naked without thinking about drawing the drapes. I definitely wouldn't even consider closing the blinds for a episode of oitnb.

I was watching Magic Mike during naptime and left the blinds open. I live on the edge.

So, when DH was being SH last week I told G that Daddy was being a butt. Now he's going around saying "Daddy butt." I'm only a little sorry. It's hysterical.

DS has screamed at me when we have left every place we've gone this week. I'm done. Waving the flag. I hope and pray all of you with littles have a reeeeeally long time before they feel the need to holler "I HATE YOU" at the top of their lungs.

Hugs heelibrarian. I don't get the I hate you but I do get the sass and the demands of things/food. I feel like he's the Will Ferrell character in Wedding Crashers. "MAAAA!!! MEATLOAF!!!!"
heelibrarian, I know you've struggled with this for awhile. Have you told him (after the fact, when he's calm), that his inability to leave calmly makes you not want to bring him anywhere? I've started telling DD that when she acts up when we are out and about. "I don't come to the playground because *I* like it....I come because I know you like it. But I don't like bringing you her when you behave like this."

Oh vasc, yes! Every time, yes! Today instead of an "I don't care" I got "I don't want you to take me anywhere. I just want daddy". Shrug. It took him a good 30 mins of rage. Much much later he did tell me he felt like he didn't have control over hinself. Indeed. Now we need to figure out how to head this off and make sure he can not let the anger get the best of him. He's had tremendous trouble with transitions since he was probably a year old. It's a daily struggle and we so everything the books suggest. It's the worst when he's not in school. Thanks, all, for the support. He is pretty difficult.
When MIL says "Wal-mark", it makes me slightly ragey.
I get that same slightly ragey feeling whenever my SIL says the word "gluten" which she pronounces as "glutton". No honey- you are not "glutton free"- that is not a thing.
I've drank everyday since last Saturday. Depending on how this drive goes today will determine if I need to drink once we get home tonight. I need to detox next week.
