FFFC! (Not really flame free..)

[lemon200]

Get out your dirty laundry and skeletons from your closet because it's about to go down!

[lemon200]

My daughter sleeps 7pm-10am everyday and I still haven't had a shower in 4 days.

[kaeguri]

My favorite food is boxed Kraft macaroni and cheese.

I also like boxed mashed potatoes.

[ajetter]

lemon200 I'm more jealous than bothered by the fact that you haven't showered. I can't imagine the amount of stuff I could get done if my kids actually slept!

[packmomma]

I put w on the floor in his monkey vibration chair yesterday, curled up beside it with a pillow and "rested my eyes".

I'm working from home today, but have spent most of my morning looking at options for pre-made Thanksgiving meals so I can figure out where I'm going to order it from this year. So much for that report...

I let my toddler run the house while I "watch" her with my eyes closed! To be fair, she's a good kid and doesn't get into much, and we are childproof. Two kids is sometimes rough.

Sometimes I tell my H that N had a rough night and I didn't sleep a lot even when it wasn't that bad.

My mother makes me crazy. I love her but seriously. She has digestive issues and I've told her many times she needs to eliminate certain foods to see if it helps. She said she is drinking lactose free milk. I had to tell her it won't do any good if she still eats, cheese, yogurt etc. she thinks maybe a new med will help. She is all about quick fix meds. She takes ibuprofen constantly and is just so clueless of the risks. I don't know if I'm just harsh as a nurse but I feel like these are things most people know

I let Noah cry himself to sleep yesterday after the doctors appointment. He was so tired but would not sleep so I just put him in his swing and let him cry.
It worked. He was asleep in 10 minutes and slept for two hours.
This may not be fffc, but I have loads of mommy guilt over it.

I prefer my trail mix without M&Ms

[ady45]

I sent DS to daycare today and was not bothered by it. I am actually welcoming the break.

I planned on doing the bare minimum on house work and then enjoying the quiet. Now that my dog pooped all over DD's bed, bedroom, and hallway, I am stuck scrubbing all the things and doing tons of laundry.

When I had my bleeding ulcer caused by ibrofren, I was stupid and text my husband instead of calling. He just happened to look at his phone and saw my message "I think you should come home i just threw up blood" he rushed home and found me curled up on the bathroom floor. I couldn't walk more than a few feet without passing out. He had to call 911. I had 4 blood transfusions and my hemoglobin got up to like 9.something. So no. You aren't being harsh.

[flippinchica]

I lied in my forms for the workout class. It asked if you are pregnant or have been in the last 3 months and I said no because if I said yes I would need to get a Drs note. I figured 2.5 months was close enough and I knew my dr would say ok but didn't want to deal with the paperwork.

I see no confession here?

[motownthrowdown]

laurasuzanne2006 my mom keeps a stockpile of antibiotics. She never finishes them for the whole 7, 10, whatever days. She takes them until she feels better and then stops. Then she randomly takes them "just in case" as a "prevention measure." Like that time she thought she was getting strep so she took two and was cured. Ughhhhh.

Especially when you buy mixes. MMS are freaking cheap. I want almonds, cashews, good stuff!

unfortunately most older people think when they are unwell, its the Dr's job to "fix" them with meds. I am glad we are moving away from that paradigm, its high time to fix ourselves wherever possible.

The best thing about being FB friends with y'all is that I get to see your H's & SO's. Lets face it, we all talk about them so much on here, I like putting a face to a story

every time someone's H or SO is a douchcanoe and then I see them on fb, I glare at them and be like you.....

That's a great way to grow super bacteria in your body!

[Laverne]

Child is awake from nap and i am quitely cowering in kitchen hoping he will doze again.

[motownthrowdown]

telos Laverne I've told her a thousand times. When A had meningitis and they gave her antibiotics for 14 or 21 days (I don't remember), my mom was like, they really shouldn't give her antibiotics for that long, she'll develop immunity. Meanwhile, my mom pops them like tic tacs for things like allergies and stuff.

She's creating the new plague doing that. That is not how antibiotics work and yet I've heard this from people before.
Eta: I see pp have mentioned the super plague bug she's creating. Good times good times

And she wonders why we have issues with her watching A...

We use the jumparoo already. Talked to the doc and he said to use it. Everyone who deals with him talks about "how strong he is" and I'm really not that worried. Also, he's a PITA about always wanting to be standing.
