FFFC/Rants

[missys]

I had a McDonald's bacon egg and cheese bagel this morning and it was delicious. And I want another...

I almost always put more thought/effort into what my LO wears than I do for my own outfits.

I track the days DH & I have sex so I have a visual reminder of how long it's been to help motivate me to DTD more often.

+1. I'm always in workout clothes, and it gives the illusion that I'm way more active than I am! Meanwhile DD's outfits are adorable and with a bow

Rant: I hate when people play the "pain olympics." If I say I am tired because DS was up X number of times and you respond with well I only sleep six hours a night, it's not helpful. I would take less number of hours of consecutive sleep versus these sporadic "naps" all night. Another one is someone told me, "Imagine if you were working full time and doing this, you'd be much more tired." Also not helpful. Sometimes a momma just wants to complain...Geeeeez.

Agreed!

Yep! I wish I had half her clothes. I wear yoga pants almost every day.

Maybe my six foot weeds should have been a confession. I should probably own up to the fact that the only reason I cleared them is because there is going to be a BBQ today. No bbq, weeds probably would have stayed until fall.

Ok i have a week to make up for so here goes!

I ate the last of the ice cream yesterday so i went and bought new, then ate what had been eaten from the first tub to hide the evidence. Win.

I also watered down our wind on Wednesday after having a glass because i remembered last minute we had guests coming and we didnt have a lot of wine in the house.

My coworker from another department and i arranged a meeting so we could skive off and go shopping during work.

I still have our 6 foot weeds. I figure I have a baby, only family really ever visits, and our HOA hasn't complained...soo the weeds will wait til next year.

I forgot about these! Damn. I know what's for breakfast tomorrow!

My mom looks after DD the two days I work but she's really annoying me lately and seems snarky about looking after her. I may find a "real" babysitter for next week to punish her for making off comments to me.

[mishka29]

In the past week I read 5 400 page books. How did I manage that you ask? By ignoring my kid mostly. I read while I fed, I read while she played beside me on the floor or sat in her excersaucer. I feel bad but I was really caught up. I'm done the series now.

mishka29 what series?

I lol'ed at your ice cream confession.  Honestly, I think all of these are genius.  

My H gives me such a hard time about ice cream but I love it so much.  I could totally see the need to hide the evidence.  

I also shop online pretty much all the time at work, and pretty frequently end up shopping when I leave to go get lunch.  I think this habit would be much worse if there were better stores near my office but they are mostly furniture places, can't really show up back at work with new chair.

DH has had a headache all day, so our day of cleaning turned into me cleaning. How convenient!

Something super intellectual...j/k. I'm a sucker for historical romance novels. This was a series by Monica McCarty called the Highland Guard.

When my husband is out golfing or running errands I turn the tv on and open the dishwasher-- when I hear the garage opening I run to the kitchen and pretend that I have been doing chores the whole time!!!

[Mom2Ms]

I lost my shit on DH today when he was pouting over being tired. DS was up for a lot of the night, which we equally dealt with. Then after DH fell asleep, it was me. DH got up at 630 or so with him. Then I took him back. DH was doing the "feel sorry for me because I'm so exhausted" routine, which pissed me off. This is me EVERY day pal, since DS was born. (And I'm 2 weeks post knee surgery & can't walk that well).

I'm also sick of his custody battle with this psychotic ex (yes, we both procreated with vile human beings prior to). It's consuming our lives. I'm sick of it. I'm sick of talking about her and her completely insane rants & emails every damn day. I don't know how much longer I can roll with this.

This. Every time lol

I honestly don't know if I've showered this week. #gross

[lilyelayne]

Rant: Drove 4.5 hours to Texas for my BFF's daughter's birthday weekend. DS is 2.5 hours past his bed time with all the travel. We get here & find out she's at her bio dad's until the party at 3pm on Sunday, which we may or may not stay for depending on how DS is doing. I'm still happy to see my BFF but damn, really? Daughter couldn't go to bio dad's next weekend? (It's not a set custody schedule or anything; his mom just asks for her some weekends & BFF obliges.)

[lilyelayne]

Rant: something changed with google image search in iOS and I can't find the right links to gif anymore.

Watered down wine! Ewww!

I know, right? Yuck! I gave the good stuff to the guests and had the watered down wine myself with DH, luckily they weren't heavy drinkers. So so gross.
