I am pretty sure that we have all of your rain here in Tennessee, Lois. I made it to the grocery store and back, but I had to take a bit of a detour around a flooded road and am counting myself blessed not to be in a mudslide. I have seen reporting of four today in my region and one on Chattanooga where my oldest lives.
Touch wood, where we live isn’t really a flood zone so we haven’t had to deal with anything like that. And we are on a huge hill. And 5 floors up in a tower block.
We do however have a blocked sink and the washing machine drains through the same pipes and I have a load of washing that won’t drain out so neither of us are doing well with water.
At least Mother Nature will fix my problems eventually. I hope you can get your drain cleared quickly.
Argh it ended up being a nightmare! We chucked every unblocking chemical we had down the sink, boiling water, plunger, nothing worked. Danny ended up unscrewing the pipework and cleaning it bit by bit, but it was all pretty clear, so we decided the blockage was outside the flat where we couldn’t reach it. For whatever reason he tried blowing down the tube (we had cleaned it) and you actually heared something go and after that it cleared. So we ran the hot tap for a couple of minutes and, so far it has been fine. But what a MESS!
Sod’s law we’ll find out we broke a fitting or something and it’s leaking out into other flats.
But we’ll see!
I certainly think you've had enough of Sod and his law in the last year so I hope it's just fixed.
Yup, Sod can sod off! I’m just about done with 2019 already.
So far I’ve had a car crash, lost the office keys, damaged my car interior, dead fish, blocked drains, and the jumper I spent 3 months knitting ended up being too short in the body and I can’t be kittened to undo it and redo it with a longer body. And I still can’t decide whether to have kids or not.
I went around a friends house yesterday and loved being with their 7 month old, but after watching the 2 of them and having a frank conversation about parenthood I’m still not convinced Danny is up to the job.
I have until the beginning of May to decide because my IUD expires then and I can have it taken out and take the plunge (or go to the pill for a little while), or have another one put in if I chose not to have kids for a long while.2 -

The weather here is crazy!

AK! You've been having a rough/ and very annoying go of it, it sounds like! And the kid thing? You have until you feel like it to decide. Don't let anyone else or your ovaries (crafty little kittenz they are) tell you otherwise. The pill is always a good option, because you can stop it at any time. And be on it as long as you want. And while the IUD can last for several years in a row, it too can be removed at any time. You are not committed to it's full effectiveness length. Perhaps it may be good to find a way to discuss your concerns with your husband? Since kids aren't immanent right now, it would be great to get anything that is concerning you out in the open with your husband. Before you make a solid decision. Like how you are worried he may not pull his weight. Easier said then done though, I do realize. I still keep flip flopping between "What will be, will be" and "OH GOD WHAT AM I DOING?!?! ". But right now, I am of the mind that whatever happens, will be what is meant to be. Until my hormones rev up on me anyways, lol.Crafty_camper123 wrote: »Finally warmed up here too!

RIGHT?!? I thought I misread my weather app this morning. (Since I was still bleary eyed from sleeping.) Until I got on Wunderground to see previouis temperatures for the day, I thought for sure I was losing my mind. Now we've warmed up to a balmy 11 above, and it's supposed to somehow make it to 38. But since it tanked that hard this morning, maybe it'll make it?0 -
We all have these days. We have to just pick ourselves up and not be so hard on ourselves. I have been known to lose control and grab a snack myself. Last week I tore into a pack of chocolate chip cookies and ate half. I have been good with the start of this week however the application is really helping me keep motivated as well as hearing all of your stories and such. Good luck and everyone please have a very positive and happy day!

THIS is why I have a permit to carry and firearms training!!! I have 9 rounds to get it right!
I can’t even imagine carrying a gun... like, doing my check in the morning:
Keys
Purse
Phone

Gun
After a while you almost feel naked with out it. It gets to be habit.
I don't think I could live in a place where I needed a gun of my own to feel safe.
I don't feel I NEED it to feel safe. I just feel a bit safer carrying it due to all the crazy idiots these days. The case of I would rather have and not need, than need and not have.0 -

Argh I know. After being with baby Matthew on Sunday I do want kids, I do. I had a conversation about this with my hairdresser on Thursday because she is in the same position (but younger) and we came to the conclusion that if Danny wants kids (he does) and I want kids (I do) I just have to decide if I’m prepared to do it without the help I want/ expect
Does that sound ridiculous?! Am I going about this the wrong way?
I have had this conversation with Danny, but he isn’t very reliable at keeping promises. He promised he would help out, but he promised he would sell a pile of books 18 months ago and they are still piled up in our back room. But he did sell his guitar case.
Our friend said he will change the second I am pregnant. Reality will charge in.
I might be going crazy...2 -
@Lois_1989 Sometimes they do change! Sometimes you also just have to ask every time for what you want. Sometimes it's a bit of both! A lot of times when men hold thier newborn for the first time, something in them does really change.

Babies aren't books, Lois. I would have bet my house that Denni wouldn't be helpful before Tamara was born, but I was wrong.
Even when I was breastfeeding her exclusively, he found ways to help. He did the laundry (and only turned one white shirt blue LOL) or grocery shopping and made dinner for us if I didn't feel like cooking. When I got sick and had to stop breastfeeding cold turkey because my medicine was bad for her, my mom took her for the first weekend because she wouldn't eat if I was in the house, but then he got up for 14 straight days of 4am feeds. When she was 5 and Ian was 2 I went on a women's retreat with church. All the moms were talking about their moms keeping their kids. When they asked me who had my kids I said, "Denni". One of them said, "What?! you're letting Denni baby sit?" "No," I replied, "My husband is parenting his children. God didn't just give them to me."
All of that to say that if Danny wants kids, he's probably going to surprise you when the time comes. Kids make you stronger and more reliable... And they are tons of fun.3 -

Yeah, I know. I think what I mean is that I have gotten so used to Danny making promises that he doesn’t keep, that in terms of something this life changing I want to be mentally prepared to deal with it by myself if I have to, for the rest of my life. That’s what I need to accept.
But the feminist inside me is raging saying I shouldn’t have to think like that, Danny needs to step up, and I shouldn’t until he does.0 -

I am pretty sure that we have all of your rain here in Tennessee, Lois. I made it to the grocery store and back, but I had to take a bit of a detour around a flooded road and am counting myself blessed not to be in a mudslide. I have seen reporting of four today in my region and one on Chattanooga where my oldest lives.
Touch wood, where we live isn’t really a flood zone so we haven’t had to deal with anything like that. And we are on a huge hill. And 5 floors up in a tower block.
We do however have a blocked sink and the washing machine drains through the same pipes and I have a load of washing that won’t drain out so neither of us are doing well with water.
At least Mother Nature will fix my problems eventually. I hope you can get your drain cleared quickly.
Argh it ended up being a nightmare! We chucked every unblocking chemical we had down the sink, boiling water, plunger, nothing worked. Danny ended up unscrewing the pipework and cleaning it bit by bit, but it was all pretty clear, so we decided the blockage was outside the flat where we couldn’t reach it. For whatever reason he tried blowing down the tube (we had cleaned it) and you actually heared something go and after that it cleared. So we ran the hot tap for a couple of minutes and, so far it has been fine. But what a MESS!
Sod’s law we’ll find out we broke a fitting or something and it’s leaking out into other flats. But we’ll see!
I certainly think you've had enough of Sod and his law in the last year so I hope it's just fixed.
Yup, Sod can sod off! I’m just about done with 2019 already.
So far I’ve had a car crash, lost the office keys, damaged my car interior, dead fish, blocked drains, and the jumper I spent 3 months knitting ended up being too short in the body and I can’t be kittened to undo it and redo it with a longer body. And I still can’t decide whether to have kids or not.
I went around a friends house yesterday and loved being with their 7 month old, but after watching the 2 of them and having a frank conversation about parenthood I’m still not convinced Danny is up to the job.
I have until the beginning of May to decide because my IUD expires then and I can have it taken out and take the plunge (or go to the pill for a little while), or have another one put in if I chose not to have kids for a long while.
AK! You've been having a rough/ and very annoying go of it, it sounds like! And the kid thing? You have until you feel like it to decide. Don't let anyone else or your ovaries (crafty little kittenz they are) tell you otherwise. The pill is always a good option, because you can stop it at any time. And be on it as long as you want. And while the IUD can last for several years in a row, it too can be removed at any time. You are not committed to it's full effectiveness length. Perhaps it may be good to find a way to discuss your concerns with your husband? Since kids aren't immanent right now, it would be great to get anything that is concerning you out in the open with your husband. Before you make a solid decision. Like how you are worried he may not pull his weight. Easier said then done though, I do realize. I still keep flip flopping between "What will be, will be" and "OH GOD WHAT AM I DOING?!?! ". But right now, I am of the mind that whatever happens, will be what is meant to be. Until my hormones rev up on me anyways, lol.Crafty_camper123 wrote: »Finally warmed up here too!

What?! That’s insane!
RIGHT?!? I thought I misread my weather app this morning. (Since I was still bleary eyed from sleeping.) Until I got on Wunderground to see previouis temperatures for the day, I thought for sure I was losing my mind. Now we've warmed up to a balmy 11 above, and it's supposed to somehow make it to 38. But since it tanked that hard this morning, maybe it'll make it?
Argh I know. After being with baby Matthew on Sunday I do want kids, I do. I had a conversation about this with my hairdresser on Thursday because she is in the same position (but younger) and we came to the conclusion that if Danny wants kids (he does) and I want kids (I do) I just have to decide if I’m prepared to do it without the help I want/ expect
Does that sound ridiculous?! Am I going about this the wrong way?
I have had this conversation with Danny, but he isn’t very reliable at keeping promises. He promised he would help out, but he promised he would sell a pile of books 18 months ago and they are still piled up in our back room. But he did sell his guitar case.
Our friend said he will change the second I am pregnant. Reality will charge in.
I might be going crazy...
Babies aren't books, Lois. I would have bet my house that Denni wouldn't be helpful before Tamara was born, but I was wrong.
Even when I was breastfeeding her exclusively, he found ways to help. He did the laundry (and only turned one white shirt blue LOL) or grocery shopping and made dinner for us if I didn't feel like cooking. When I got sick and had to stop breastfeeding cold turkey because my medicine was bad for her, my mom took her for the first weekend because she wouldn't eat if I was in the house, but then he got up for 14 straight days of 4am feeds. When she was 5 and Ian was 2 I went on a women's retreat with church. All the moms were talking about their moms keeping their kids. When they asked me who had my kids I said, "Denni". One of them said, "What?! you're letting Denni baby sit?" "No," I replied, "My husband is parenting his children. God didn't just give them to me."

I get that, but I am telling you that Danny reminds me of Denni and I believe he will step up and in ways you don't believe he will or can. And even if you end up doing more than your share, you will have more love in your life because babies/children/young adults are good for that.

Have I ever mentioned how much I love you Mel?1 -
Lois, you will figure it out. Neither of my kids were what you called planned, but we both stepped up to do what was needed. That kind of responsibility tends to bring that out in a guy, especially daughters for some reason.4

Ditto -- both of my girls are birth control babies. My ex was a stay at home dad for 3 or so years. He was a WONDERFUL dad!
Sometimes you have to roll with the punches. I was trying not to get pregnant and did anyway. Darn little suckers would crawl across the sheets to find me. But, it was in the greater plan and we went with it. My oldest is now actively trying to get pregnant and is not having any luck. She is so stressed because of it.
I guess my point is sometimes we have to play the hand we are dealt. Kids, no kids, want kids, oops kids...
We are here to support you in ANY decision you make!

So first thing's first, there needs to be a change of mindset here. Danny wouldn't be and shouldn't be 'helping out'. I'm not 'helping out' when I'm looking after my kids, and neither is their dad. Our family and home are his responsibility as much as it is mine, and while I work fewer paid hours and thus do more childcare, that's just how we've divided the work, we both pull our weight in different ways.
That being said, he could surprise you, and also it's important to be clear what you need because it's not always obvious for the one who's away from home more.
And don't worry too much about birth control. The pill usually works fine and means you can decide at a month's notice. I went on the mini pill between kids as it turns out after ten years on the combined pill it didn't agree with me - fell pregnant first month after stopping! 0
