All I have is that I have had a cold this week so I have actually been embracing the Stay at Home part of my title. I actually do not miss human interaction and my house is a mess (MIL thinks because I SAH it should be clean).
My confession is that sometimes I kinda envy people with one kid....love my twins to the moon and back, but I watch my friends w/ just one child this age and they seem like they have it all together, and can give so much attention etc....meanwhile I feel like I'm always just in "let's get everyone from point a to point b in one piece....hey where did L run off to? You come back here right now!" mode

I caught up on Kendra on top yesterday and was crying real tears. I can't imagine having an infant and finding out my husband had an affair when I was pregnant.
I'm going to a Halloween party on Saturday and am totally taking the lazy way out on costumes. With C going to 6-7 Taekwondo classes this week, gymnastics for L and 2 swim lessons for A, I have had NO time to put together anything fun. DH and I are going as an Erudite faction member and an Amity faction member from Divergent. It is lame and I know it, but I can put that together from stuff in our closet.
My grandmother passed away yesterday so we might have to miss Halloween. I can't get myself upset about it. It's just such a cluster with my kids because they are afraid of the decorations and costumes, and they can't eat candy due to food allergies. I just....don't really feel badly that we might miss it. And that makes me feel like a crap mom.
I can't think of a FFFC right now. I'll come to back it.
I don't know if this fffc worthy, but I bought a King Sized Halvah bar this morning on a whim. It is so incredibly bad for you and I want to devour the whole thing in one sitting. It's made with sesame seed, honey, sugar. For 2oz it's 340Cals and 22gr fat.

A crockpot recipe called for a 1/3 of a cup of beer. I couldn't let the rest of the perfectly good beer go to waste. I downed that sucker at 9am like it was water.
I'm so sorry about your Grandmother. Sending you lots of hugs. It sounds like your kids don't really enjoy Halloween so I would missing it is NBD.
My FFFC- my Mom is visiting this week. We've gone out to lunch every day. It's so nice to go out, I never do when it's just me and Will. It feels odd sitting in a restaurant by myself. I'm going to miss these lunch dates when she's gone.

I'm made a no bake cheesecake and ate half for breakfast with no intentions of sharing the rest. DD put herself to bed the last two night and I'm so excited, I usually have to sit on her bed!

I love my boys, but having twins is freaking hard! I really did have it all together with just one kid. I'm a mess now.

I don't have cable and can't watch. But this whole situation upsets me to an embarrassing degree. I love Hank. Love him. He seemed so sweet and so devoted and this is one time where I'm legit shocked.
I guess that's my confession. I still harbor secret hope it's all a ratings ploy.
It seems like its real because the chick involved released an audio recording of hank calling and crying saying we need to find a way to cover this up because I'm going to lose my wife and kids. I loved hank too but now I want him to burn. Lol

Also my second confession is I legit have an addiction to seasonal vinyl tablecloths. I didn't realize this was confession worthy until today. Perhaps there's a support group for people out there like me?

I never kept up with this, never watched the show, I'm not a sports person and she slept with Heifner, EWWW. I could have cared less about two people I didn't know. When this story first broke though, I felt sooo bad for Kendra. It felt like genuine pain from Kenda, not like this was rehearsed for tv drama. Does that make sense?
I have a good confession maybe? I am living a double life. I grew up super conservative and everyone around me and in my life is conservative. Over the past couple of years my views have changed.
I still consider myself a conservative BUT a liberal on social issues. But I am not "out" to everyone I know, so everyone assumes I agree with them. It just feels weird to announce to the people I know "I think gay people should get married now! Anti-abortion laws do more harm than good!" KWIM?
I def speak up about blatant discrimination, and try to offer a different perspective when applicable, but otherwise I keep my mouth shut. I guess that's flameful?

This was me until recently. I grew up conservative and I'm in TX, so you can imagine how many people feel here. I struggled for a short while with being financially conservative, but believing in equal rights and women's rights. I guess I'm Libertarian now if I identify with any party at all. I've kept it to myself, but mostly because I avoid political discussion IRL. I do speak out about LGBT and women's rights though, which are important platforms to me.

I grew up in a pretty liberal house. I agree with gay rights, women's rights, pro-choice, I don't think just because I agree with these things I need to give my opinion on them all the time with people who don't have the same opinions or even with people who do. If I'm asked what my views are I say. Just because I'm an advocate for these things doesn't mean I need to express them at all times. I don't think it's flameful that you're not outspoken at all times.
