Vent Day!

8:28 AM Posted In , , , , , , Edit This 0 Comments »
Oh gosh, there are so many things to vent about today (probably because I’m a cranky large pregnant woman).  I could vent about the fact that my body aches constantly now.  My hips hurt, my back hurts, the muscles in my lower abdomen hurt. 

I can vent about the fact that I’m not sure what I do most at night: 1. Sleep; 2. Go to the bathroom; or 3. Flip over and over trying to get comfortable. 

I could vent about the fact that I have zero energy.  After waking up in the morning and getting ready all I can think about is finally getting in the car so I can just sit down.  I could use a nap or two to get me through the day.  Too bad that’s not an option.  You would think this pure exhaustion would help me sleep at night…

I could vent about the fact that my husband still has not bought a new ‘used’ car.  We’ve been talking about him buying a new car for at least 9 months now.  You see, he drives a 2 seater and it’s a POS and could breakdown at any moment.  Obviously he can’t drive the baby around in a 2 seater.  But has he purchased a new car yet?  Nope.  Baby is due in a month and he’s still driving that POS.  I’m so freaking sick of having that conversation with him.  Just thinking about bringing it up again makes me want to vomit.  Maybe I’ll just never bring it up again and see what happens.  Let’s take a guess… will he step up to the plate on his own and buy a new car?  Or will he still be driving the POS months after the baby is born.  My gut feeling is leaning towards the later.

I could also vent about the fact that St. Croix Tree Service’s truck drivers are pieces of shit.  Every freaking day they pull out in front of someone.  I’m NOT kidding you or over-exaggerating.  I either see them pull out in front of someone up ahead of me or they pull out in front of me every morning or evening.  It’s not like they pull out and you have to eventually slow down because they are going slower than you.  They actually pull out in front of you and make you slam on your brakes.  In fact, one pulled out in front of me this morning.  They don’t give two shits and I’m not going to lie, I am starting to get to the point where I want to call and complain about them.  I never call and complain about shit like this but it’s seriously pissing me off. 

Ah, I feel slightly better.

Vent Day!

Most of you know I'm pregnant... Lately I have been craving tuna pasta salad and last weekend I finally made some.  I've never made it before and the recipe I used was freaking delicious and it turned out soooo good!  I was so excited to have left overs for a few days.  The other morning I went to the fridge and guess what... the husband had ate all of it.  UGH!  And I must say there was a good amount left the last time I had any.  I was so upset.  I woke up knowing I would have some tuna pasta salad for lunch and was looking forward to it (yes I look forward to lunch) and my dreams were crushed!  This is very difficult when you're pregnant and that's all you crave.  So now I'm sad and tuna pasta salad is all I can think about.  I wish my husband wouldn't always eat all the good food before I get to it.  This isn't the first time.

What's on my mind

A. Last night I woke up around 3 am with the WORST pain in my left hip.  At first I thought I just laid on one side too long or laid on it wrong.  So I tried to turn over and oh my… ouchie momma!  Then I decided to get up and holy moses.  I’m assuming it was a Charlie horse in my hip but I have no idea.  It seemed to last forever but probably only lasted like 5 minutes.  Poor Phil was woken up by it.  I sure hope that doesn’t happen again.  It was worse than the Charlie horses in my calf and lasted longer too. 

B. 7 more work days and then I have 5 days off in a row.  Amen to that!  I’m in need of a vacation from this joint!  Everyone needs to get away from time to time and I definitely do.  Phil and I were going to do something fun together but his stupid new boss denied his vacation request.  I mean seriously… there was no reason for her to deny his request.  So I don’t have any fun plans but there is a lot I need to get done so I’m sure I’ll use the time to get stuff done in Baby K’s room and around the house.  I also need to make an Ikea trip (again) so I’ll have plenty of stuff to do.  It will be a nice break from work before the baby comes. 

C. I have less than 3 months until I get to meet Baby K.  Crazy!  This pregnancy is seriously flying by the seat of my pants.  I am pretty sure that he won’t be coming early but in case he does I’ll meet him in roughly 2 ½-3 months.  :)  I can’t wait!!!!!! 

D. I want to give this baby a name.  I'm set on a name that we both really like and we will most likely be using.  However, my hubby thinks we need to wait and see if anything better comes along.  That's not how I roll.  I'm a planner.  I like to get shit done well before it's due.  I would like this baby to have a name so I can start calling him by his name now and there's one project in his nursery that I can't do until we decide on a name.  So, to be fair I told the hubby that I'll wait until the baby shower and by then I want us to decide on his name.  That gives him another month and a half to come up with anything different and gives me at least a month before he's here to have his name set.  I think that's a decent compromise.  Seriously... it's driving me nuts knowing we have an awesome name and just haven't 100% decided on it. 

E. I miss my husband.  He was gone all weekend at his mom’s house helping her put on a new roof so I barely saw him.  But he came home a little early last night, around 7-7:30ish so we could spend a wee bit of time together before I went to bed.  That was a nice surprise.  I was feeling rather lonely yesterday.  He's been working rather hard this whole summer.  It's always one project after the other and we barely do anything together.  Lots of important projects to go...  :(


F. I have heartburn.  The pills the doc prescribed to me worked really good at first and I didn't get any heartburn.  Lately it's been creeping back up on me and seems to be getting worse and worse.  The pills do help because it's still not as bad as it was but it's getting worse again.  Poo...  Makes me wonder if my body is getting use to the pills and now they aren't working?  Who knows...  That's just my mind wondering off.


That is all for now.

Another Random Bullet Day

·         Victoria’s Secret – you can stop emailing me deals on underwear, swim suits and lingerie every single freaking day.  Do you realize you’re hurting my self esteem?  I’m 22 weeks pregnant and can no longer fit into your skimpy outfits and might never fit into them again.   I would appreciate it if you would stop emailing me.
·         Husband – seriously you need to buy more pants and work shirts.  You can’t just wear the same work shirt and jeans Tuesday-Saturday and not wash them.  There is a reason those clothes were in the hamper this morning and when I try to get you to wear something else you refuse.  Gross, enough said.
·         Baby K – I just love you.  Yesterday was the first day I felt you kick me from the outside and my heart just melted.  I was hoping you’d be active when I got home so your daddy could feel you and luckily you were!  Your daddy kind of jumped a little and said it was creepy.  But creepy in a good way. :)  He loves you too and wishes you were here already.  It’s amazing how one day you’re just not strong enough and the next day you’re so strong!!  You must have had a growth spurt over night which is probably why I’m so freaking tired lately!
·         Wardrobe – One day you fit me the next day you don’t.  My options are getting very limited these days and I’m not used to that.  I like to go home and get comfy right away by grabbing a t-shirt and comfy pants and my options for t-shirts are slim to none.  I might have to start wearing the husband’s small t-shirts soon…
·         Cravings – This insane craving for ice cream needs to go away before the love handles get bigger and my thighs and ass make my pants rip.  I could seriously eat ice cream for breakfast, lunch and dinner.  Skip the meal, just give me dessert.  The weight is starting to show and I just made it past the half way mark.  Please please go away craving of mine.  It’s summer now and it’s not like I can cover up like I could in the winter.
·         Weather – please don’t rain on my parade all weekend long.  My mom is coming to visit and help me work on the flower bed.  Out of all my projects this is the one bothering me the most.  Our yard is hideous and my mom can do wonders with a flower bed.  Please don’t rain us out.  You have no idea how much this is bothering me!!!
·         That is all for now.
