Pregnancy and Parenthood Have Taught Me Many Things

Sep 10, 2008 23:28


As of today, I am 24 weeks pregnant with my third (and possibly last) child.  With only 16 weeks left until my projected due date, I've been sitting here tonight, reflecting on everything I have learned since becoming pregnant with my first child.  So, I have decided to compile a list of the things I have learned along the way and share them with ( Read more... )

My god, woman! Where do you find the time to write novels?! LOL! I have barely had enough time to get onto facebook! And I feel bad because I know I'm neglecting the thread over there, but this whole move and work is about to make me lose my mind! It sux ass...

Your musings on pregnancy and parenthood are quite interesting and insightful.

Why thank you! I figure, since the baby has this thing about moving around between 1-5am EVERY morning, I might as well use that time to write novels and be a bit thoughtful, ya know? hehe

Oooh! Lookie what I found: http://clothing.cafepress.com/item/csi-vegas-infant-bodysuit/209747998#

OMG! They do!!! How cool!

Yeah, I think this 1-5am thing with Skippy might be her/his way of letting me know that it's gonna have it's nights/days screwed up, so I better get used to being awake during those hours! lol

Ouch... Well, I hope you get some rest. I'm about to lose my mind over here. So much shit to do before the day's over. And on top of everything, I totally got screwed over by the condo association. Fuckers didn't tell me I needed permission to install the dish!! Now I gotta wait for the callback from the guy in management with the info. Bastard didn't wanna answer his phone today... So I'm just a bit pissy at the moment.

I'm sure I'll be getting some rest eventually. Matt's out of town this week so anything and everything kid is falling on me. When he gets back, Friday night, it's real tempting to leave the kids with him and go check into a b&b in St. Augustine for a few days. hehe ( ... )

And she's still a fucking idiot, isn't she? Wow... now that's dense. I can't wait to see what kind of a slap in the face she gets for her conduct, sorry, MISconduct. My god... how can you do something like that and expect to get away with it?! It's beyond unethical, its immoral! What a cold hearted bitch!

I'm with you on the trip to St. Augustine! I'd LOVE to get the hell out of here for even the weekend! Which reminds me, I REALLY have to start planning this girls weekend before the wedding. Lots of choices, I just need to narrow it down to either East coast or West coast. Such a chore! LOL.

Well, she knows what she'll get for her misconduct as well as everyone else does. She's at the point now where it's become obvious to even her, that she's just gone overboard by doing that crap and now the only thing left for the university to do is file her walking papers. After that, it all comes down to how is she going to provide for herself and her family. Losing her job won't mean that her bills are going to suddenly go away. That's kind of why she's not talking to anyone. She knows she's going to be formally fired on Friday, and most likely won't be able to work at this kind of job in the state again since the committee has a responsibility to inform other universities of her misconduct and the likelihood of her doing it again. So, she's in panic mode and not talking to anyone. Her family relies on her paycheck. Soon, she'll have 5 minor children, no paycheck, an unemployed husband with HUGE gambling debts whom she's trying to divorce right now, some of the debts he incurred will be her responsibility to pay off, and ( ... )

All I can think is that she was stupid enough to actually believe that everyone else in higher departments was too busy to care what kind of crap she was pulling. What a stupid fucking idiot. It's really that simple. She's just an idiot.
