dangletsbang Posted July 11, 2014 Author Share Posted July 11, 2014 Ahhh, gotcha. See i'm just inexperienced with weddings so there you go, haha. Link to comment
dangletsbang Posted July 11, 2014 Author Share Posted July 11, 2014 The other day Hayden randomly said "shuuuuuuttttt uuuup!!!" and waved his hands dramatically. It was in a tone of voice like he was imitating someone and it sounded familiar so I knew he wasn't just being rude and saying "shut up" which I wouldn't allow. I asked "where did you hear that?" and he said "finding nemo. the bird, mom." I said "OHHHH, Nigel!!! Yeah! shuuuuuttttt uuuuuppp!! haha" Ever since then, when someone is being an idiot....being dramatic about something, rambling on and on about something I don't care about, being stupid...I hear "shuuuuutttt uuuupppp!!!" in my head. I love that my almost 4 year old has the same sense of humor as me. He even will randomly say "awkwardddddd" in certain FITTING situations. He's hilarious. I'm so lucky to have him. Link to comment
hers Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Gah I love this age!! My two nephews, 5 months apart, are SO different from each other and so freaking funny. My one nephew, L, has my sister send me videos of him randomly telling me how much he loves me and it melts my heart. And then recently, our newphew B was out to eat with us and ended up talking about his "brother" (he doesn't have one) and when we asked his name, he said "Charles. He's always in charge." And we DIED omg. We have no idea how he'd know that reference but Jared laughed so hard that he cried. Then a few days later, my SIL texted my husband and said that B went outside to get his dad and said "Daddy, get in the f---ing house." His dad said "What did you just say?" and B said "F---ing." His dad said "What do you think htat word means?" And B said "that you really need to come in the house." They're so funny at this age!! Link to comment
dangletsbang Posted July 14, 2014 Author Share Posted July 14, 2014 I'm going to do whatever I have to do to protect my child. There will be no cooperation efforts coming from me anymore. Link to comment
dangletsbang Posted July 15, 2014 Author Share Posted July 15, 2014 Just got harassed by my youngest doctor about how the bathroom stunk after I used it this morning. He was being really loud, dramatic and running around spraying lysol. Laughed so hard I couldn't answer any phone calls. We are way too comfortable with eachother. Link to comment
dangletsbang Posted July 15, 2014 Author Share Posted July 15, 2014 Hayden is very young but he sees so much more than certain people realize. He's only [almost] 4 but he knows the difference between right and wrong....at an adult level almost. It's comforting to me as his mother to know that he carries a trait like that. Link to comment
dangletsbang Posted July 16, 2014 Author Share Posted July 16, 2014 so soreeee o.o deadlifts yesterday, death by burpees and squats this morning. I feel like such a tool when I flex to feel of my muscles but at least I only do it in private so no one else sees. Love all the friendships that i'm forming with the people in my class. Not sure if I even want a boyfriend anymore. Just feel like 'it' isn't there anymore. I would be perfectly content just living my life, raising Hayden, getting my own place eventually. I feel terrible and guilty because K did nothing wrong...I just feel like we've grown apart. Link to comment
hers Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Do you think maybe the relationship is "too easy"? Like there's not enough drama and that's what you're used to bc of T and C? Link to comment
dangletsbang Posted July 16, 2014 Author Share Posted July 16, 2014 I don't know, hers. I'm banging my head against the wall trying to figure out what it is. I'm just annoyed here lately...I hate feeling obligated to check in with someone...I feel like we can't relate to much at all with one another. Link to comment
Firiel Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 How long have you two been seeing each other now? And what drew you to him in the first place? Link to comment
dangletsbang Posted July 18, 2014 Author Share Posted July 18, 2014 10 months, fi. and I was just naturally drawn to him for some reason. There was nothing in particular, we were friends before we got together. He's quiet, lovable, inexperienced, smart. In the first several months of our relationship, he hung out a lot with his friends...now he doesn't do that, I feel like he always wants to come over after work. This sounds horrible but i'm just kinda annoyed by his presence. I've been really struggling at work here lately...stressed, certain issues with our doctors, being just beat down by them, behind in work. Not to mention some issues with Hayden's dad. I just feel like I don't have time for a realtionship...I don't have time for what he needs. I just want to do my job and spend time with my son. ahh...i've almost spent $300 on my son's ninja turtle birthday party. Little stinker better have the time of his life. T had surgery on his hand today....repairing it from breaking it after he punched something out of anger. I told Hayden to say a prayer for his daddy this morning since he was having the surgery to fix his hand...a cold heart will get you no where. Link to comment
redrose85 Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 You’ve been posting a lot about how you don’t want to be in a relationship right now. And that’s okay! Just because he is a nice guy doesn’t mean you have to hold on to him or that he’ll be the only guy for you, nor do you have to feel obligated to stay in this relationship. Do what you want and need to do. Link to comment
Firiel Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Yeah, I think 10 months can be a make-it-or-break-it time. Things often get more serious when the one year mark is approaching, and the couple starts to become more of a "unit" instead of just two people who hang out together. If you don't want to be with him, that is totally okay, and it doesn't make you a bad person. I agree with red-- his being a nice guy doesn't mean you need to be in a relationship with him. It sounds like you've learned a lot about how you should be treated and about what a drama-free relationship is like. Relationships aren't always meant to be forever, and that's okay. Link to comment
redrose85 Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 It sounds like you've learned a lot about how you should be treated and about what a drama-free relationship is like Ooh yes, and THAT will serve you (and your boy) well for when you are in the place to commit to someone. Link to comment
dangletsbang Posted July 29, 2014 Author Share Posted July 29, 2014 I'm being stretched to the absolute limit at work. We're supposed to move offices by the end of the week. I worked 11 hours yesterday plus the 2 hr round trip drive. I'm here early today. Our phones were transferred by error last week so all 4 of our phone lines are being transferred to ONE early 2000s model cell phone. Our fax lines are down. Patients are angry. I can't get anything done because i'm trying to keep up with phone calls and returning calls. While i'm on the phone for one 5 minute conversation taking care of a patient, 4 more calls come in. Repeat. Our doctors are expecting even more out of us. Our last patient last night was from a nursing home and transportation didn't pick her up until almost 8pm. I literally was in tears just wanting to go home. I hope this is over soon. If the permits don't come through today then we'll be delayed again...which causes more work for me. Link to comment
dangletsbang Posted July 29, 2014 Author Share Posted July 29, 2014 Oh and all the things going on with Gaza is making me sick. I have got to stop watching the news. The fact that poor innocent babies are losing their lives in horrible ways is haunting me. It's absolutely disgusting. Link to comment
dangletsbang Posted August 11, 2014 Author Share Posted August 11, 2014 seriously wish work would calm down. I can't handle it. Link to comment
OptomisticGirl Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Have ya'll even moved yet? Link to comment
dangletsbang Posted August 12, 2014 Author Share Posted August 12, 2014 OMG, NO...b. It keeps getting postponed. We were supposed to two weeks ago....then it got moved to last week...now we're supposed to thurs/fri but I just got wind that it's gonna get postponed again. Our stupid PTL authorized them to mail out the 'WE HAVE MOVED' cards so all these patients I called on Friday to inform them WE HAVEN'T EFFIN' MOVED got a card in the mail on Saturday....and what did half of them do yesterday? Went to the new office and got mad when we weren't there. Um duh, I called you Friday to tell you where to be. I'm constantly rearranging appointments, calling patients to tell them we haven't moved...then when you call some of them it's not just a quick and easy phone call..."oh by the way my left leg is double the size of my right leg", "I think i'm in a-fib again", "my incision is opening up and red", "i've gained 10 pounds in 48 hours and i'm short of breath"... ahhhh. I'm literally going nuts. I'll be so thankful when this is all over. Link to comment
OptomisticGirl Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Shouldn't they be calling the doctor before the doctor calls them about stuff like that??? Yeah, I get the calls were they just go into a long rant and I'm sat there like, I am not the person to answer this question. You are just going to repeat yourself when I transfer you to the person that CAN. Link to comment
dangletsbang Posted August 14, 2014 Author Share Posted August 14, 2014 I seriously couldn't imagine being one of those mothers who constantly bring new men into their children's lives...Hayden asks for K or talks about K occasionally and it feels like a punch to the gut each time. I feel guilty. Hayden asked on Sunday if K could go see ninja turtles with us...so I texted him and he met us up there. Hayden was so happy to see him. I still feel indifferent, unattached, not really feeling much emotion. We've been split up for about 3-4 weeks. I told him to move on because I just don't know what I want. I think I might be depressed. But yeah, back to what I was saying...I just couldn't imagine introducing a boyfriend to Hayden immediately...moving in quickly...him getting attached...splitting up...taking that person away from him...and reintroducing another one. Rinse, repeat. That's how so many women in my town are. Do they not feel guilty for what they're doing? Do they not think of how their child[ren] feel or how it's affecting them? I don't want to introduce Hayden to anyone ever again as my boyfriend. Maybe it'll work out down the road with K, maybe not. I just need time. Link to comment
dangletsbang Posted August 15, 2014 Author Share Posted August 15, 2014 It makes me sad to see one of my friends struggling so bad to breastfeed her newborn. This is her second and she failed pretty quickly with her first son...she was bound and determined that she wouldn't fail this time...but it's taking so much out of her. I know how she feels but she shouldn't feel so horrible guilty if she has to start supplementing with formula...it's not the end of the world. Link to comment

I know how she feels but she shouldn't feel so horrible guilty if she has to start supplementing with formula...it's not the end of the world. My wife tried breast feeding both our 2 year old and our 3 month old. She just couldn't produce enough milk. She shouldn't feel guilty using formula. This isn't uncommon. There is a reason infant mortality has declined almost 90% in the U.S. over that past 100 years. We have other measures when nature isn't helping. Link to comment
dangletsbang Posted August 26, 2014 Author Share Posted August 26, 2014 My four year old is a preschooler! dropped him off this morning for his first full day and he didn't even flinch...blew me a kiss and waved goodbye. Time flies.. Link to comment
