A good friend is getting married on a Wednesday this year. But it’s their anniversary so has meaning and more importantly they’re eloping and not inviting people/sending Save the dates

The house is vacuumed, dishes are done, and laundry is running. I can take a nap now, right? You did all that with a newborn? Hell yes you get a nap.

I had a nightmare of a time reserving a place to stay on AirBnb for our anniversary trip, including having an extra $350 being taken out of my bank account with no idea of when it will actually be refunded, but our trip is booked. And I hate Airbnb now.

Anyone else have family members who continually ask if you’re going stop working and stay home with the kid(s) when you were pregnant? I had this issue with my first born... my Uncle (whom I had a very direct convo with about his constant pressure to be a SAHM and now we don’t really speak anymore) and now an Aunt (whom I’m very close with) who knows my stance on this, is asking me the same for this baby. I chalk it up to a generational thing but it’s annoying AF.

My sister got married on a Monday. It was Memorial Day but it was also a destination wedding, so I assume some people were slightly annoyed. Wednesday is like 2 days off work at a minimum, though. Weird.

We did Costco this morning and I'm exhausted. I plan to be on the couch watching The Great British Baking Show until further notice or bedtime.

Or when coworker A says to coworker B (who's husband is able to SAH), "At least he can be at home with your son and you don't have complete strangers raising your child." Right in front of me and another coworker who send our kids to full-time daycare.

Right in front of me and another coworker who send our kids to full-time daycare. I hope you told them to fuck off. It was in a professional meeting, and we were speaking to someone dealing with PPD, so I just sat there with an annoyed look on my face.

Weds wedding is a big no from me even if you are in the same town as I am, lol. Lemme guess. . .they just want $ for gifts. I always give $$$ for a wedding gift, unless they specify that's the only gifts they want.
As for people commenting about how you are raising your kids, I really don't understand it. They are either just stupid or way too damn bold.
Honestly, unless there's strong evidence of a dangerous situation, how a baby is conceived, birthed, fed or cared for is really no one else's business.

You know what sucks about living at the top of a huge hill? Not being able to make it up that hill in the snow. I may have cursed a lot on the drive home from school.

Seriously, they make a huge difference That’s what I told DH when I got home lol. They usually put sand down and it isn’t issue but it’s still snowing so the plows can’t keep up.
