Hello! I spilled soup all over myself today. The container exploded and got on my shirt, pants and hair. Also on my desk, keyboard, phone and iPad. Iive smelled of 5 ingredient white chicken chili all day. Every time my hair gets in my face it smells like soup. It's grossing me out hardcore. On a better note, wife got a huge promotion! Waiting to see salary but it should be several tens of thousands of dollars more a year. I can't even explain the weight this lifts off me. My biggest stress is out financial situation. I've lost so much sleep over it. We're behind on everything and wife is driving a 12 year old Altima that's making a horrible noise. Our CRV has bald tires. We haven't booked hotel for the wedding I'm in next month. I feel like I can breathe now.

I'm sorry about the lump in your leg, girlonabike. I hope the steroid cream is able to heal it!

After three years of trying, tons of tears, prayers, RE appointments, my good friend just got her betas and she's definitely pregnant! They're over the moon! And they transferred two, so there might be twins!

armpants, that's so exciting!! Do you feel more excited to be pregnant for someone else? Or less? Is excited the wrong word? I'm excited for you! I'm excited to be pregnant. I had a good pregnancy with M and IF sadly played a roll in us being OAD. But I also have zero desire to have a newborn again. Also if I can help take the fear of not being a parent away from others I just have to help. I still remember that feeling, it's awful. I have moments where I just cry because I get to be mommy, I love it so much. I want others to have that feeling, it's amazing.

I'm not crying, you're crying...that is so incredibly sweet and touching. Thank you for being you.

What color leggings would you out under this dress? Currently I am leaning towards either white or red.

fierymama I'd probably go black. I know it's not one of your suggestions. Between what you suggested, id go white.

fierymama I would say yellow TBH. But with that dress I think you can really do any colour. IMO...but I love a little more wild.

Hi. Back from funeral. It was... nice. I drove with my aunt (she was married to my moms brother who has since passed) who for the longest time seemed hated our family. She sorts told me why, in a nutshell. It was neat...nice... to hear her side of things. I guess when my grandfather died (very young age my mom was 14 and she's right in the middle of the 12 siblings) her husband being the oldest had a lot of new responsibilities and the siblings didn't like that. I could see why... big brother enforcing discipline. My uncle also moved out at 12 to do boarding school and lived with relatives on breaks. I never knew that. The funeral was interesting because the pamphlet didn't have my uncles name. Instead of where his name would be (name). So for example instead of "please pray for Susie" itnsaod "please prayer for (name)". THEN the priest started talking about how most people what a quick death but that we should want to be surrounded by family and for our death to longer and that we shouldn't die alone (or something like that). Well guess who died a quick death not surrounded by family? My uncle. He was mowing the law and he a heart attack. He then fell forward and slammed his head on the riding lawn morsel and then fell off it. He was found by his neighbor. So yeah. Weird thing for a priest to say.

I think it was her first, she also POAS and got a positive! I'm not sure if they're doing repeat draws, but she has an u/s in two weeks to see how many are there I think?

girlonabike, I bet we have the same dermatologist too! I say that bc mine is also a woman, very close to my workplace. I've been in to see her recently too, I don't think pregnancy is doing good things for my skin (Moles have changed). She wanted to bump up my body scan so I go next month too for that, so we can fit in any surgeries we might need before baby comes in Feb. If it is the same as I'm thinking, I believe you are in great hands!

Yes, she is good! I've been to others that I didn't like or trust as much. She found something that could have been really bad on me that I got removed in Feb.

Moms club board mtg went well. The mom I don't care for said she's really enjoyed my letters from the president in the newsletters. I feel like I am a good writer but suck at grammar. So it felt nice to be told that. The lady I have to send our chapter newsletter to at our regional level said my letter made her cry this month too. So she also enjoyed it.
The "oh my gosh you eat tofu and feed your kid ice cream" mom asked for organic wine at a bar and grill restaurant. Is it weird that made me chuckle? She also said our co-op sells some items that are gmos and is hoping the cider we get for our fall open house party is corn syrup free. Lol
Pdq might poof last part
