Last night SO offered to sleep on the futon in the kids room so I could keep lil chicky babes in the bed with me, since she's been waking up like every 20 minutes all week needing her pacifier replaced or whatever. I totally acted like I felt bad for him sleeping in the other room but in fact I was fucking OVER JOYED for the glorious LACK of THUNDEROUS SNORING!!!
I would way rather be woken all night long by my snuffle cry cry baby than my thunder rumble boyfriend.
www.cnn.com/2015/10/09/us/northern-arizona-university-shooting/index.html Something drastic needs to be done. Gun Control, or something. But what kind of world do we live in that a persons life is so horrible that a person feels the need to go take a gun and start shooting up a high school, or college campus. This needs to end

I make DH still think that he has to clean the cat box because I'm breastfeeding. I don't think he really needs to, but I still make him do it anyways. I can't remember if I've used this for FFFC already, but oh well... It came up again last night so it was on my mind!

Sisterhood of the constant bra. My issue is the perpetual leakage. I always wonder how much milk I throw away in those nipple pads. Shoulda bought stock in the damn things. Probs should get reusables.
FFFC Im a wasteful SOB? We use paper plates for dinner more frequently than I care to admit, but I guess I just did. We call em lazy plates. Even when we go grocery shopping, like "hey, do we need more lazy plates?" "Nah I think we have like 20 more left."
Last night MH got drunk and when he was annoying me, I told him to go choke on a cock (it was all/mostly in fun, I swear!). This morning, he remembered that phrase but thought he said it to me! he was running around the house trying to get T ready for daycare (something I usually do) and is meeting me for lunch at work today and has said he wants to take me out to a fancy dinner to show his appreciation for me putting up with him.
I didn't correct him and am letting him feel bad about it
I feel awful about mine because it was a total mom fail. But with slightly amusing results.
DS got set up contently watching a show yesterday so I took the opportunity to put some laundry away. I put DD in her swing without strapping her in (my fail-I know-bad) with the 'I'll be right back to get you once I move the laundry basket' mentality. Well things were quiet and peaceful in the living room so I didn't stress too much.
I pop my head in to check on them and get her (I was just moving things into the bedroom beside the living room), and the swing was just swinging babyless and DD was lying on the floor smiling, cooing and patting her toys! No crying, no thump, no other noises, DS is too little to lift her himself and he was still planted exactly where he was when I left them. I don't know how she Houdinid her way out but she was happy despite how awful I felt that I left her there! Needless to say, a mistake I won't do again...even if she didn't seem to mind.
Lol I literally did it for the discount of the product and I know a few friends who want to buys stuff. I'm not doing parties or pushing it on people in any way. Also I was bullied into it.

Oh god. I saw your post and my heart sank. +1 to gun control in the u.s. ASAP

My sister in law became a beach body consultant. I unfriended her once I realized she was posting something about it every damn day. So now whenever she asks me about something she posted, I have to ask MH about it before I respond to her texts. This backfired and now MH thinks I'm super interested in it and asked her for shakeology samples. Ugh, no
Your pits!? Three weeks!? Okay. That's gross. Lol!! Your legs I can totally get, but the pits are not okay!! Go shave woman!! Haha!!
lol. My showers have had to be super quick lately and I never think of it while I am in there :/ Mostly because there is a screaming child/children on the other side of the shower door.
I totally hear ya! What wouldn't we give for a peaceful non-interrupted shower...
Yeah, I've talked about how my cousin's mom targeted me about selling/buying rodan + fields. I've read about how direct sales pushers target new moms/moms who SAH because we're pretty vulnerable.
I've also had Plexus and Beachbody pushed on me since having a baby, too. Not to mention the eleventy billion Jamberry parties I get added to.
I got invited to a "sentsey" party the other day. LOL.
I haven't shaved my legs in 3 weeks. Or my pits. Apparently I am French now.
Girl! Shave.your.pits!!!
But I totally feel you on the whirlwind 2 minute shower with screaming kids :/ meanwhile DH gets to take 30 minute poops, I so want to cone back as a Dad in my next life

we have the same husband. I don't know what he does in the bathroom, but 30 minutes is a little ridiculous. Plus he takes 30+ showers all the time!
+2 on having this husband. What are they doing in there? I want to hide his phone and see how long he really takes.

I wasn't going to comment because this doesn't exactly belong in the FFFC thread, but - it's not just a matter of gun control, but providing better resources and services in regards to mental health. Just taking away guns won't solve anything, the root problem needs to be addressed, which is mental health and support for individuals who feel they need to take drastic measures such as this.
Agree. Gun control is one piece of a large pie. But it's a very large part of the problem. but im also super against guns and pretty vocal about it. One of my friends in high school shot 1/2 his face off at a party while drinking. Then he committed suicide by gun later due to depression from being disfigured. I also have an aunt who married a completely insane veteran who already tried to kill her once with a gun. He was arrested for it and guess what they are still allowed under US law to have guns in their home and they still do. He has a semi automatic rifle too. Our laws in this country are completely backwards.
I've bought three costumes for LO for Halloween because I couldn't decide and I've already booked LO for Easter pictures because I've seen a bunch of the photographers Easter pictures and fell in love with them. Ridiculously early I know!
This is going to make me sound like a horrible person....
I have to call insurance companies a lot for work and a lot of the people that work in the call center do not speak the best English....when I don't have the patience for that, I ask to speak with someone else....

I am so sick of the gun control/ mental health debate and so saddened by the state of the US. And so worried about the future.
My confession is that I have friends and family members that have completly different views than I do and I have totally lost respect for them.
A light hearted confession is that I hate Go Fund Me's and the only one I've ever given to was my friend who wanted to buy a vintage coffee table of a naked golden lady. I may have encouraged her to start the GFM. Now I feel bad when I see another friend post one about funeral expenses or saving a monkey or something.

I think it depends on who starts the go fund me. If it's a family member or someone who's trying to raise money for the family, I look at that a lot more favorably than the family starting it themselves. However, I do look at it as they can put themselves out there and if people want to donate then why not? Some families are wrecked by medical expenses, and if they are willing to put their pride on the line and have people who are willing to give money, then I don't really have an issue with that.
I totally agree. I shouldn't be bothered by it, I don't know why I am!

I can't even get my head around owning a gun. I seriously do not understand "for protection" as a reason to own one either. Guns breed more guns. I am just astounded that crisis after crisis happens and nothing changes regarding gun control.
FFFC even though I don't live in the States I am pretty paranoid about something happening here. To the point where sometimes going to the bigger malls makes me anxious.
Then you've never lost part of your livelihood to wild dogs, coyotes, or wolves? Have any idea what a calf looks like when coyotes show up to "deliver it"? Or what a cougar can do to a horse?
We own guns. We use them for hunting, and protection of our livestock. There are a good number of people that feed their families by hunting wild game. They don't do it for sport, but for sustenance.
Guns are not bad. People may use them to do bad things, yes, even horrific things. But that does not make them bad.
My son has pretend guns, and he knows that guns have rules and consequences. Don't point them at people, don't look down the barrel, and never say, "It's okay, it isn't loaded." We don't call them toys.
Just because you don't understand something doesn't mean it's wrong.
