When to have kids?
Posted Friday May 8 2009, 9:54 am
So I'm 19 and have been very happily married for nearly a year. My husband and I are both in college and living on our own. I desperately want a baby. I know how hard it is, I raised my younger brother on my own for two years while in highschool. I know that it is terribly expensive, I know it is taxing emotionally and physically and in more ways than imaginable. I know it would mess with school and our plans and everything but the non logical half of me is completely going nuts over it.
Many people are just telling us to go for it and that things will work themselves out as we go along. A few people think I'm completely insane for even considering it.
I just don't know what to do, I've tried adopting far too m...

Wedding problems with future in-laws.
Posted Monday April 27 2009, 4:51 am
Me & my fiance are planning on getting married in October. I really like his parents, but his family & my family are like complete opposites. His parents are super-strict Christians, while mine curse a lot.
We were planning on maybe doing a Halloween themed wedding, but as soon as we told his parents that they freaked out. So, I was trying to I guess bargain with them so I said the wedding will be more fall themed & the reception is going to be Halloween themed.
Like most girls, I've dreamed about my wedding since I was young, & I've never wanted a classic wedding. Me & my fiance are metal-heads, sort of. We love metal music, tattoos, & piercings, so everyone who knows me knows ...

New pet.
Posted Saturday April 25 2009, 11:09 pm
My boyfriend's little sister recently got a puppy.
She's getting mad at me because the puppy is getting more attached to me. She always tries to go to me when she gets the chance.
But I don't even play with her really. She just sleeps.
I get to watch her in the morning while his sister is at school. And still, she just sleeps.
And because she's afraid of being alone at night, I have to stay up for most of the night while watching her sleep on my bed. She wakes up every so often.
His sister treats her like a toy most of the time. She also doesn't want me to play with her when she is home and even when she's not paying any attention to her. (Because it's her puppy, n...

I would like to start by stating that I have been in the work force for 10 years and have always been promoted, never fired, and only called in sick once in those ten years. (mentioning this so no one thinks I am lazy.) I am 4 months pregnant with my second child. I work a heavy labor job (3rd shift) and lately I feel like I cannot go another day. I want so badly to spend the next few months with my two year old and be at home getting the house ready for the new baby. My co-workers stress me out, I am burnt out on the work, and I am always tired because I only get 5 hours of sleep a night, sometimes less. with my son, I went on pregnancy disability at 7 months. I will probably have to stick with it until then this time too...
