History: We are mamas who met as we all happened to get pregnant around the same time. But our discussions about our babes have spilled into other aspects of life. So, we are meeting to discuss our daily happenings, random thoughts to get support for whatever we need support in.
Anyone want to join?
Oh yeah, and if you WANT to talk about your Kitchen Sink, use a code word, like rutabaga.
J is in our big tub actually. And unlike C, who HATED baths at his age, he is like a fish. He is climbing all over the thing, pulling himself up and dropping back down. He keeps pulling himself up and then seeing if he can keep himself standing, and clunking his head on yet another thing

Thanks for starting this tribe, Pad.
My mind is drawing a blank right now but I hope we can all just get a bong here! (I mean, along!)
:
I could use the bong.
I was so stressed this past weekend I bought a pack of cigarettes. I smoked like 12 of them over the past 4 days and threw the rest away. I do that once every 6 months or so
I think because my dad was such a fan, I was able to stay away... I deal with stress by um, on-line shopping
: It's a terrible terrible habit
In other news: I just met with the head of fund managment in my area and she is going to get me into a fund managing position!
: So she has an immediate opening that if I like them/they like me I can transition into within a month or so; otherwise, she will train me in her area in a couple of months and will transfer to another area as an opening comes up. So excited!!!

Now, online shopping WHILE smoking would be an ultimate de-stress idea for me

Me too - I smoked when I was single and then betweeen my 1st & 2nd pregnancies but not during; then I quit. Fortunately I'm not addicted where if I have one, I go back - I can smoke once in a while when I'm out with friends or particularly stressed or whatever and then give it up again. (And I tried rolling my own, too - until DH freaked out about it, he thought I was going to get arrested since it looked like I was rolling, uh, something else
I mean, it was kinda crazy, there was I, in a business suit with my hair and makeup done looking all conservative and professional, sitting out on our luxury apartment patio rolling cigarettes after work.
I quit smoking the day I found out I was pregnant with Sam, but regressed when she was in the NICU. I haven't smoked this pregnancy, but it's hard to keep from buying a pack every time I run in to the gas station.
I have no other stress relief at the moment.
I'm too pregnant to work out, too broke to shop, too busy to journal, and too married and mom-ish to go out with my single girlfriends.
