I hear that! I actually look forward to my alone time and cherish it. Oh your plans got cancelled? That does not mean I will stop my plans to rewatch Downton Abbey for the 5th time, sorry.

Haha! Okay, looks like I will have to dig up the early seasons because I am that crazy lady that must start from the start!

My gut is that they had stuff going on and the fucker gas-lighted you to try and cover up. Glad you got out of that. I would have felt the exact same way, too many red flags to ignore.

I had multiple male ‘friends’ crawl out of the woodwork and try to date me when i went on a break with my no husband about 5 years ago. They all kind of sidled in under the guise of being someone to talk to and then made moves.

I have eyes like that too!

Nailed it! she is making me want hair exactly like that.

I *think* he had a hard time maintaining an erection, but I may be wrong!

I don’t watch this show, but I watch all the Housewives. Do I need to start watching this show?

And kept the ring.

Hah! She remarried?!

I would absolutely watch this.

I liked that Lizzie was still on this season of OC. She seems like the voice of reason. I always felt bad for her since her main storyline focused around her husband’s inadequacies in the bedroom.

This winter’s reality forcast is looking *quite* nice. I have no shame and will try any housewives show at least once. The only one i have not watched for awhile is Atlanta, so I will have to catch up on Hulu. I’m so very excited for Cheshire since Ladies of London (my fav) just ended.

My husband and I spent an hour and a half designing the male and female leads to look just like us. Worth it.

Yeah I don’t blame you. I’m 31 right now and I have a feeling when I have one, it will be the only one we can afford.

I’m glad you made it work :). I also have so many relatives harping on me to have a baby and telling me it will always work out. Until they are ready to help pay, I will do my darndest to wait.

Let me know how that goes, sounds like a good idea! My coworker actually started working at a daycare when she had her baby so that she could afford childcare.

I’m to the point where I’m going to mention needing a raise to afford kids. Do I think people should make more because they want or have kids? No. But I’m to the point where I will try any angle to get the raise i deserve.

My old coworker actually left our field to work at a daycare so she could afford to have her daughter in childcare, since they gave a discount. At the time, I worked as a Medical Laboratory Scientist in a Clinical Fertility Lab.

Honestly, childcare costs are what is holding me back from having kids right now. From what my coworkers have told me, the going rate for infant childcare in this area is around 1200-1700 a month. Heres hoping i get a raise this year, because the biological clock, she is ticking.
