Friday Rants & raves
My rave is that I am SO GLAD I chose to be a stay at home mom and found a way to make it work. I wouldn't trade this time with Sophie for anything. She is the most wonderful baby in the world.

My husband never wants to do anything that requires "going out" - we are both homebodies but he takes it too far. We recently lost some friends over this in fact.
Now I am out of town and he has Friday night plans with his coworkers? Do his coworkers normally invite him out and he says no? Or do they just invite him out because his wife is away (because they don't like me)? I just really want to understand why we can't ever do anything when I'm around. I'm always trying to encourage him to find a golf buddy or something but no. So this week he goes golfing!!!???!!!
Is it me? Am I keeping him from having friends? I don't know why but my feelings are hurt by this. I want a social life and I don't have one in many ways due to him, but I leave and things change? I'm not jealous that he's hanging out with people, I want more of that, I'm just sad that I'm not included. I used to assume it was because I was so fat, either his friends didn't want to hang out with me or he was ashamed to have them hang out with me. Now I am not so fat but it hasn't changed so I feel like its me.
I've been kind of an emotional wreck for the past 24hrs. This isn't helping. In fact now I'm crying, and I feel stupid for crying. Ugh.
Hopefully you can talk about it when you're back home.
Hugs,

LOL... I'll take your birthday gift... but you can't paint when you are pregnant... hello fumes and toxic chemicals and such lol... you need to do this... go get a massage some place special tomorrow... and smack the hubs for me lol...
And if you want to come down tomorrow afternoon to shop let me know lol...
She did say not to paint in an enclosed space and if I ever got a headache from it to stop... so no headache...
I definately cannot paint with gloves on.

apart of my art major in college we were taught about the dangers of all the different chemicals we were using everything from the photo chemicals to the paints to the charcoal we used to draw with... there really isn't anything safe art wise except pencils... hehehe...
My OB isn't one of those crazies that say no to all kinds of fish etc... so when he said that using the various art mediums were considered to be a danger like class C drugs I listened... esp after what I learned in college...since I"m not making my living at this point painting etc, I can skip the painting... hehehe... plus Lorelei likes to paint way too much and I'm sooo not letting her get into some of my paints where the tube was $50 lol...
but the reason you don't dye your hair while pregnant is because the hormones in our systems will make the dye react in ways that can cause the color not to come out the right color... I had a friend who is a blond just doing lighter lightlights and they came out red when she was pregnant lol...
