I’m about to reveal a little secret about myself. It’s not something I like to admit, at least not until someone catches me doing it. No, I don’t pick my nose or anything gross like that. I know you were thinking it!
I stress out about every* little *thing. Okay, so that’s not a secret because I’m pretty sure that 97% of women do. It’s not so much what I stress about or why, it’s how I deal with it big or small. Here goes, go easy on me… I’m a crier. I’ve never done it for attention and in fact I’m completely embarrassed if anyone sees me but when I feel like I’ve got too much on my plate or someone is really bugging me I can’t hold it in anymore. This is a bi-weekly thing for me. If I’m in the company of anyone but myself I can cry out of one eye. Yes, I’ve trained my eyeballs to secret cry so that person can’t see it- I’m that good/bad. A good sloppy snotty cry in the wee hours of the night every so often always makes me feel better.
Now that I’m pregnant this has become bi-hourly. Move over morning sickness and make room for the water slides. I cried over the need to make a routine phone call. I cried over a Disney movie I’ve never liked. I cried over Glee- twice. All this in the space of 1 hour. In my medical chart from having Mary it actually states “Very tearful”.
I cried so much over nothing yesterday my water soluble pen won’t work. I’m not kidding. I must have cried on it or the fabric because it’s wet and won’t work today. I can’t finish Ashlyn’s dress without it and I only have a few days left. You might ask why I don’t use the purple disappearing side? I cried on that to. Stupid hormones.
So there you have it. I’m not perfect and I ruin water soluble pens with my eyeballs. If you need me I’ll be crying over my pen in the corner. Sheesh.

awww =) go ahead and cry. There's nothing wrong with that. I'm "very tearful" when I'm pregnant too. Ashlyn's dress is looking beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteMy husband wishes I would cry. I just have a hard time doing it, even when I am pregnant. Unless I think about seeing my 2 1/2 yr old and one yr olds faces as we walk into Disneyland in October. But if I do need to cry, I agree, I don't want anyone to see it. I can't imagine how much harder it is when pregnant, but if it makes you feel better- bring. it. on:)
ReplyDeleteA super HUGE congratulations on expecting another baby! You are such a great mom and your kids are absolutely darling! When are you due?
ReplyDeleteYou cry all you need, and i will send you a big eHug!
ReplyDeleteThe best thing about a cry for me is the sensation of being able to breathe clearly afterwards. So long as it's not interfering with your day to day life (well, apart from the marking pen issue!) I think there's nothing wrong with a good cry. And with hormones in the mix - well, let fly with those tears, I say!
ReplyDeleteAw, you just go ahead and cry if you need to. I know being pregnant definitely messes with your emotions. Me? I get crabby. My husband probably wishes I'd just cry. I yell. And then cry. And then yell some more, LOL.
ReplyDelete**Hugs**
You can cry all you need, i will send you a big eHug!
ReplyDeleteHang in there! And that scalloped edge is super impressive and cute.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I know this is totally random, but my husband just saw that I was leaving a comment on your blog and he said, "Everyday Chaos... I don't know that one." To which I responded, "Yes you do. It's Chicken Jim." Haha. We still laugh about that post. You crack me up. Have a good night!
P.S. Please don't cry about my husband not knowing your blog by name. I definitely do.
hang in there I'm 18 weeks and still crying at everything. it's getting a bit better but I am regularly stunned at the things I am turning on the waterworks for. It's OK. Its our prerogative :)
ReplyDeleteI realized that I was pregnant when I cried over a song on the radio that had always annoyed me and that was even before the home pregnancy test. I am also a huge hypocondriact when I'm pregnant. (I'm sure I didn't spell that right.) When I was pregnant with number 4 I was convinced I had colon cancer. I went to the doctors with my checklist of symptoms and he laughed and said that they were "pregnancy symptoms". Stupid doctor what does he know?! Your chart may say very tearful but mine says moderatly paranoid. Oh the joys of pregnancy. Good luck on not ruining anymore pens for the remainder of your pregnancy.
ReplyDeleteAwwwwe!
ReplyDeletejust let them tears flow! It's good to let the emotions run :)
ReplyDeleteI blubber at the drop of a hat. A song on the radio, Winnie the Pooh, the movie UP when the chaps wife died. I'm relieved to hear I am not alone.
ReplyDeleteHow can you cry out of one eye? I must practise that, ideal if you are standing sideways next to someone.
