The official public confession thread

I'm a marshmallow (or at least weaker than my daughter). I find it easier to sleep on the easy chair in minnie's room when she won't sleep rather than let her scream it out (scream, not cry). Tonight I told her I would come back after I got ready for bed.... but I didn't. I lied....

MN, we did the "I will check on you thing" and did increasingly longer intervals at 20 months when I finally had had enough of laying on her floor for hours to get her to sleep.

She's started waking up in the middle of the night screaming for someone to cuddle with her. We are not inclined to cuddle at 3 am. "Cuddle with you rabbit" may have been yelled across the house

I'm drinking a margarita before faculty meeting with the outreach. That's how excited I an about teaching with them this year....

Found out when dh got home tonight that he's on call for O's b-day party. He has had the date for two months. It's a confession because I'm not that upset by it.

After being the solo parent from sunup to sundown yesterday, I couldn't handle being woken up (on top of that) by a loud 3 year old.
I made coffee, and told him I needed alone/quiet time -- he threw a fit, so I escorted him out of my bedroom and shut the door. He tried to come back in, and I told him 10 minutes, and locked it.

So, I told one of my new friends here (a peds intern medspouse) that I would make a Peter Pan cake for her son. I am feeling overwhelmed today (cake needs to be made today - party is tomorrow). I am seriously contemplating running to Publix and buying a two-tier cake, scraping the icing off and decorating it.

I suck. I need to get off my ass and be a better person today. Repeat to self: I am not a lazy ass!

E woke up early this morning, at the same time as me, and she wouldn't entertain herself while I was getting ready. I gave her my phone and put on a video to entertain her.

Oh man I hate when I offer to do things and then when the day comes to do it I have absolutely no desire for follow through. Hope you're inspired!!

I don't like my husband very much right now.

My toddler is just being a toddler but I can't stand it anymore while I'm trying to work and care for them (while they are both mildly sick).

STOP TOUCHING/CLIMBING/WHINING AT ME AND YOUR BABY BROTHER WHILE I AM WORKING OR TRYING TO CARE FOR HIM.

AND STOP COLLECTING RANDOM PILES OF SHIT TO STOW IN RANDOM PLACES FOR ME TO CLEAN UP LATER.

She's been watching the Kindle all mornings. Bad mom

I have NO idea what I'm supposed to do with myself 3 full days/week. I'm going to have to get a job or something, seriously!

It's 61 and I'm tempted to turn my heat on.... God I can't deal with another winter here!!!

It's been in the 40's and I finally turned ours on this afternoon. I've been chilled for two days and woke up with a sore throat so that was my excuse. For turning on the heat in September.

Yea, so my confession is since I'm not feeling well and today was my day off I've...obviously...been on iMSN just.about.all.day. Hubby went across the street for a beer. I think we're going to stay home and watch a movie tonight.

Today I got into a confrontation with a man who was doing work on the church that abuts our house. When I think about it my first instinct is to be ashamed that I screamed at a stranger. But then I consider that it might have been one of my kids that he drove his giant pickup within 6 inches of IN MY DRIVEWAY. And then I'm just proud I didn't cuss or smack his truck with my hand, and I kind of wish I'd been even more clear-spoken and aggressive about informing him about his poor manners.
