Can't keep eyes open.

Don't have the strength to write much tonight. In addition to lining up tons of contractors and foundation repair companies, we (my husband) expressed our displeasure in our realtors to our realtors. They took it personal. We had to revamp a lot of things, get everyone on the same page, and keep them from crying.

Mama wants this whole deal to be over soon. There is a reason why they say home buying is stressful. Because it is.

Take note for the future. If you want anything cosmetic done to a house you want to buy, discuss it in your offer, don't wait until you have a contract.

In another note...

A girl I know is pregnant with twins. She sent me a message on Facebook wanting to know how I breast fed my twins and if I had any tips. I told her I only did it for 3 weeks and she should not put too much pressure on herself if she decides not to do it because it is overwhelmingly difficult. She wrote me back saying...oh, so sad to hear that, but no matter how tough it is on her, she has made the choice to do what is best for her babies, not fail and not take the easy way out.

F you.

  1. I will never understand breast-feeding snobbery. I may not be a mom, but I've heard enough insensitive comments from moms about topics like these that make me want to stay away from them when I do become one.

  2. That is so rude. I know it's cold comfort but you know as well as I do that's a lady who will get her comeuppance once her twins actually arrive. She might think she knows how hard it's going to be. But she doesn't.

  3. Wow, wow and wow. Amazing how someone who does not yet have kids is an expert.

  4. trust me, she's added onto a long list of people I know that will probably be eating their words once they actually have a kid

  5. Just wait until she actually HAS the kids, then we'll see.

  6. She is sooooo clueless right now. Just give her a little pat on the head. She will need your help in the future and hopefully will be thankful to have you as a friend who is an experienced mother to twins.

    At what point does motherhood get easy? I'd like a ticket to that place.
