And some figure that raising their kid is the priority not dating or focusing on a relationship. If only more people thought that way we might have fewer cases of abuse.
Apparently there is a correlation between single parents dating and abuse? Nice. Way to be open minded and accepting! Fuck you very much! Have a fucked up day!
I saw that last night before I went to bed, I don't know how you can even connect single parent dating with abuse.
I heard the alarm clock this morning and just wanted to cry. We tried to snooze for about 20 minutes, but the garbage truck was SO loud so early in the morning. WTF?
I took today off work because FI's parents are taking us to see Jersey Boys tonight. I want to lay on the couch all day and read or watch tv but instead I made appointments and have errands to do. I did good and got out of bed when FI did, but now I can't get myself off the couch!

I think I lost my camera somewhere in the 6 airports and 5 planes that I was on during my trip to visit my parents for Christmas. :-( :-( :-( Not happy.

Where was that asshat comment about single parents/dating/abuse posted???
I'm exhausted today. Between working on the house all freaking weekend, getting our current house ready for DS’ birthday party, getting 5 hours of sleep on NYE and then the chaos/preparation/actual party for DS…I’m whooped. But, DS told me last night, “Today was my most favorite birthday EVER, Momma. I love you.” Completely melted my heart and made it all worth it.
I’m annoyed that XH’s Show Cause hearing got pushed back to the 17th. It was supposed to be tomorrow, but the notes on the notice I got in the mail a few days ago said that XH contacted Friend of the Court and that he’d make a payment by Friday. Well, it’s Wednesday and I haven’t seen anything. Andplusalso, the hotline with “live” information still says the last payment was received Oct. 3rd. (I figured with the holiday’s it would take longer than the normal 2-3 days to see the payment, but the hotline will tell me if one has been made and they’re still processing it). I emailed my caseworker to see if she can see anything in her system that would indicate that XH actually kept his word….
I’m pissed that XH worked on NYE and DS stayed home with his GF all day (NYE was XH's holiday with DS). I’m not mad DS was with his GF per say…but I’m annoyed that it didn’t even cross XH’s mind to switch NYE/NYD with me so he could actually spend time with DS on a holiday that he wasn’t working.
This stupid cold will not go away, and I am so drained from it. If I do anything remotely exciting, like leave my bed or couch, I am a zombie the following day. It sucks, and I hate it. I just want tp function normally again.

I loved my brazillian wax in December. It didn't get all my hair due to length. And I had to trim two days ago because some hair was super long and some hair was just starting to grow back (after a month). Now I have to wait to get it waxed again so it's all the same length. It's so annoying! I almost just want to skip the wax and get laser on it since it would be 20 bucks more a session but then gone for forever...
I was all kinds of stressed about my annual review. New CFO and CEO this year. But the CFO is very pleased with my work.
I found out that XHs GF is jealous of me because XH and I are getting along. I couldn't help but laugh. Seriously? She can be jealous all she wants. I'm just going to be careful and make sure she doesn't try to make waves

I'm going to start wearing more of my clothes. I wear the same 4-5 outfits to work all the time which is weird because I love all my clothes. I just organized everything and got rid of anything I don't like or doesn't fit. So in January I am going to try to not wear the same article of clothing more than one time. I put a bunch of new outfits together last night.

Yesterday I was in the kitchen and T was watching TV. A commercial for a local gym came on and he let out a laugh, I asked what was up and he said his ex gf (last serious gf before me) was on the elliptical in the commercial. Later on we were both watching TV and it came on again so we're both looking for it and he's like "There! on the right!". Ummm....it wasn't her. I should clarify that he has terrible eyesight. Now, I know what she looks like from Facebook stalking but I can't really admit to that. I was like "Are you sure??" him "Yes, that's her". It's not her. But I have to keep quiet because I can't admit that I'm that familiar with what she looks like. So, his ex is in the gym commercial, except she isn't.

I had a really good date with the son of a preacher man. He's a good kisser!
I will miss my new niece or nephews birth while in Colorado. SIL is way overdue and refusing to be induced.
I came out 3 weeks late. Maybe niece/nephew will too and you will be back before it happens! My mom never induced either, but we were all home-births. Damn hippies!

Me too! (home birth and way overdue too)
Really? People are always shocked when I tell them I was born at home, which meant no drugs for my mom. My midwife was lazy, though, and my birth certificate wasn't turned in until I was 5, so there is NO record of me being alive until 5.
It's my bday and I'm in a horrible horrible mood bc I go back to work today, started my period and bf has pissed me off royally on my bday. I'm bringing a bottle of champagne to work so I might have to have a drinking lunch.....

Happy Birthday! Don't lawyers have two martini lunches anyway? :drink: :drink: That's what my PR professor always said.

Yup! People are shocked too when I tell them. I was at least 3 weeks overdue too which people give the big side-eye to when they hear.

I have the best CS caseworker ever. She emailed me right back and said that XH committed to a $200 pymt on the 26th (which is a drop in the bucket of what he owes) and also gave his employer’s information so income withholding can go into effect. Now I just have to wait a few weeks and should start seeing SOMETHING again. If he pays the $200 AND one week of CS has come through my account from his employer, she’ll cancel the Show Cause hearing and I’m 100% ok with that. I don’t care about him getting in trouble for his arrears…I just wanted to start seeing some kind of payments again. Pre-school is expensive!
Emma – HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! I say pop open that bottle of bubbly!! Cheers

Thanks. Yes we drink a lot at work but typically not till like 4-5. I plan on being drunk by then. Then my coworkers are taking me to a happy hour. Could be a very drunken bday!!!!
I think I'm turning into a hermit. I had plans for NYE that I blew off cause I just wanted to be alone. That may be because I had spent the last 10 days before that with family. I needed a break from people. I hate people.
Well, people aren't too fond of you right now either.

LOL. Maybe if you weren't such a judgmental twat people would like you more and then you would like THEM more? Or, you can continue making asinine assumptions about single moms and dating and be a miserable hermit. your choice!
Well, people aren't too fond of you right now either.
Thanks to god that I don't care then huh? LOL
8-D Obviously, since you are just posting about being a hermit, you don't care that people don't like you either. Well, good luck in life, then. You can continue pissing people off and being a hermit, but don't complain about it here. YOU caused the problem.
Am I the only one side-eyeing bringing a bottle of champagne to work and planning to be drunk before leaving for happy hour?
I'm a drinker, and I've had drinks over lunch at other jobs, but I haven't been impaired at work since the summer before my junior year in college, when I telemarketed. And I was a damn good drunk telemarketer!
I dunno. It just sounds like a recipe for disaster. And correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Emma have some work performance-related issues within the past few months? If I'm correct, then I think that's an extra good reason not to crack that bottle open.
