I'm sorry.  I should know better than to try and form coherent thought when surrounded by kids. It took me at least 4 tries to put that together as it was. I never even thought of proof reading to see how disjointed it came out. |

I will forever judge a person who leaves a child or a pet in a hot car.

I will forever judge a person who leaves a child or a pet in a hot car. I waiver. I always assumed people just took an attitude of, "I won't be long - they'll be ok,", or were genuinely irresponsible and stupid. Anymore, I don't know what to think. I've never been a super-busy corporate mom. I still get distracted. I just don't know how to rule out doing something, having never been in that situation. The story that got me thinking was of a mom who went to daycare at the end of the day to pick her daughter up. The daycare explained to the mother that her daughter had never been dropped off. Mom goes through this same routine by rote every day, gets completely distracted and assumes she did the same thing that day that she's done almost every other day for the last three years, and she just..didn't. I've had moments of panic in motherhood. Moments of "Omg! How could I??" I remember washing one of Amara's carseat covers, putting the cover back onto the carseat, putting the carseat back into the car, buckling Amara into her carseat, and altogether forgetting to buckle the carseat into the car. Nothing happened, of course. I think I might have even chuckled. Could have been tragic. Would I have been judged? Damn right. Would I have died of guilt? Damn right. I'm not saying these people don't do something horrifyingly wrong. I just think that there has started to be some grey area for me. I dunno. It's hard. |

(She only added me because she needs ammo for someone to talk shit on.I hate the bitch. Like...hate her) People suck You added someone to your Facebook that you don't like and you know doesn't like you? I had her deleted years ago. She went on a tirade on me about beach body and any other fucking thing she can think of. A mutual friend "casually" mentioned I the interest of that rare "moms night out" it would be nice if we could get along. That she'd sent me a request and maybe I could be a big girl and re add. This was a few months back. So I readded. Because I'm an idiot. So fast forward to now. I've had her unfollowed since like day 2. Though I enjoy her kids and used to carpool with them so I occasionally pop over to like a pic or offer a congrats because... Not the kids fault their mother is a horrific bitch. She however has me followed. I know this because while she never likes or comments on any of my actual posts she likes the negative comments or anything that disagrees with me. If I comment on a news story and someone replies negatively? She likes that. My cousins leaves a dickish comment on my post last night? She likes that. My kids learn to swim and I post an adorable video of children she used to baby sit and teach? Nada. She's just a cunt and I avoid her. But for the sake of the friend I actually like passively aggressively Facebook avoiding her is just "easier" than having her deleted. "Why don't you have K on your Facebook she's great!!" My response is now "I'm kinda a bitch!" Because telling folks how I just can't stand that woman has gotten me nowhere. |

You're a grown ass woman Chels. If you don't like the bitch, and she adds nothing to your life, the "big girl" thing to do about it is to be firmly upfront about the fact that the two of you are not friends and will never be. Your mutual friend needs to respect that.  |

At this point there still is none. I get that people get in their routine and forget. It's just not good enough for me, it's not ok, it's completely unacceptable to me to 'forget' that your child is in the car. I'm sorry, I just can't. |

Oh good because smiling and nodding is exhausting. They never plan these mom nights anyway (or my invite gets lost on the mail.) So I don't see why they care that we don't like each other.
"Are you signing the girls up for tumbling this year?"
No. K teaches it.
"I know isn't she great?!"
No.
" but the girls will love it"
I'm not giving someone I don't like money to teach my children something I consider a useless skill.
"You're hard to understand sometimes girl *insert nervous laughter because they don't know what to say*
Obviously paraphrasing but I've had this conversation a million times lol

Bandwagon here, too. You can't invite assholes into your life and be surprised when they act like assholes.
Be above it. Forget about what she says or thinks. Live your life in a way that is the opposite of hers. I've been trying to keep this Mark Twain quote in the front of my head, given the recent 'book climate. We've heard it a thousand times, but it's true.
"Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience."

Wait, and what did your cousin say on the swimming post? I must've missed that, lol! I made a post last night that if Americans exhibited half the passion we do for our sports teams and gave more attention to who and what we vote for we might not be such an international joke right now. It's been replaced with a broader (and more accurate ) generaliztion to include the world. He made a snarky comment on the post about my generalizing and called me stupid because "the rest of the world likes sports too" She liked the comment. And I'm not inviting drama personally because I just don't deal with her. I don't talk to her. Haven't spoken of her except to y'all. Her lack of Facebook saavy is amusing. And i do consider tumbling pretty useless if all it's used for is cheer. And that's all she teaches. Is cheer tumbling. One of our major disagreements is about cheer. I entertained letting the girls try it a few years ago and she was giving Lana private lessons once a week. Until I was quickly reminded I hate everything about cheer culture and she's a great example of why. I just don't work and play well with others. I don't care if other people let their toddlers cheer. Just get off my ass for not letting mine. I think cheer is fuckin dumb. For myriad of reasons. I'm entitled to that opinion. It doesn't make me a hater or anything else. I'm not "jealous" of these children (as I've been accused of being. "They are just better than Lana and Chelsea couldn't handle Lana not being the best so she pulled her!) No. Proof you don't know me at all. Lana needs humility often. I happily encourage her to do shit I know she sucks at often. Call one bitch a vapid cunt who lives vicariously through her kid ONE TIME .. get branded as a hater *whistles innocently* But no really . I don't actually care that she's around. I'm irritated with my cousin. She's not the issue lol I LIKE him. Sucks he is being a douche |

I should know better than to try and form coherent thought when surrounded by kids. It took me at least 4 tries to put that together as it was. I never even thought of proof reading to see how disjointed it came out.
