Guest Tigger Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 I had a practical exam for becoming a personal trainer today and the CERTIFIED PERSONAL TRAINER got mad at me because I did not put her on the machines for 'weight training' (I offered to show her the forms for lifting free weights instead)I almost pushed her down the stairs... probably should haveWorst part is: I will probably not get the job now >:| Quote Link to comment

Morrigainz Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 I don't think "being a wife" should be particularly stressfulAaahhhh I totally wish it wasn't...but it is. We haven't been married quite 2 years yet, and so we are still adjusting to each other I think. Problem is, I feel like he expects me to work 40 hrs a week, maintain a 4.0 GPA and a clean home, be an all-around awesome person, AND still have the time/desire for MNST. Trouble is, I don't work that way.It's cool...I'll be done with school in December so at least THAT will be out of the way Quote Level ?

Maybe though, you need to talk to him about it and negotiate a compromise, because adderall sounds like a pretty extreme solution. Or if that doesn't work write about it in a journal, meditate/pray as your inclination lies, something. A pressure cooker is not a good way to manage a life, pretty soon you are gaining a crap-ton of weight, hating yourself, and then your hair starts falling out...oh, wait, I think that was me. Hang in there, but don't STAY there, if you know what I mean. Change something. I am here to say there really is a limit to what your body will take, and it sounds like you are close to that limit.

Trouble is, I don't work that way.As someone else said...talk to him. "I feel like he expects". Way too much leeway in that statement IMO. Nail down what he expects/requires and what you expect/require. If it is too much/not working, pull the nails out and move them. Of course, this will take the rest of your lives together...but you have to start where you are. Ladywildross and I are coming up on 32 years married, and we're still making adjustments, learning about each other, resetting expectations. It's easier now, but still necessary, partly because we keep growing and changing and having different things happen in our lives. Quote Warriors don't count reps and sets. They count tons.

AKLulu Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 ARGh... Just found out i'm permanently ineligible to donate blood,sucks.That sucks, Soso! I've always thought about donating blood, but haven't tried yet... I think I'm afraid they'll turn me down too... that and I had my blood tested for bad stuff a lot when I was in middle school and high school, so maybe I'm not SO keen to go back to getting my arms stabbed.

I'm not allowed to donate here in the UK, because I've had transfusions myself. It's so frustrating. I mean... because I've had transfusions, I know how important it is to donate! But I'm not allowed. I'm planning on donating when I'm back home in a couple weeks, no such restriction in the states the last time I checked. Quote Pain is the feeling of weakness leaving the body.

scuddle Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 My ARGH for today - This weekend was so awesome, I saw friends from out of town, traveled and went to the beach with them, walked around downtown disney, had a good travel day the next day back home, watched game of thrones... really, had a great weekend. And then just before I leave my partners' house, I get in an argument and go home in a bad mood. It was totally my fault, too!! Why am I so prideful?? At least we talked about it and are better now, but come on, self!!Argh: No pants I own, or shorts, or even underwear, will stay up when I do jumping jacks. What the helling hell?

Last week was spring break and I wasn't dragging five kids to the blood bank, and this week I'm just getting over ToM, so I think I need to wait until I don't feel so weak anymore.

Thrillho Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 Argh. A friend of mine was so happy when she kicked her douchebag cheating husband out.
