What rustles your jimmies - Part II

[taiga1]

If someone is childless because of infertility issues----I cannot think of anything more heart-wrenching. . Pregnancy, childbirth and the infant stage---there is nothing greater on this planet.


Kids don't wreck bodies nearly as much as age does.

I had my first at 27 and was back to 100 (fit) pounds and wearing a bikini in 6 weeks.

My 2nd was nearly at 40. This time took MUCH longer and I worked MUCH harder.

Went through the bitter stage, no doubt. Friends made pregnancy announcements on fb...I would quickly congratulate, then block them before the endless baby posts/pics would commence. Most surprising was the lack of compassion/understandning from close friends/family. Oh well...it is what it is...can't change it. I'm in a much better place now...more joyful for other people's happiness now then I was before the entire ordeal. That feels good.

Society is judgmental in general, basically you can't do anything right. I have been judged plenty for not wanting kids, people who have them are constantly judged for their parental skills, mothers who work are judged for not spending enough time with their kids, mothers who don't work are judged for lacking ambition and falling for paternalistic brainwashing. Just accept that you can't ever make everybody happy, so make yourself happy and let others figure it out.

My CO walks in and drops something on my desk. I need a property report on this. He gave me no where near enough infornation and then disapeared. He won't answer his phone and is off premises.

Now I have to do an incomplete report and get my arse chewed in the AM.

SAHM easy...hmmm
depends on what you are doing with your time
its a lonely job
can get tedious
but its an important job with no paycheck attached to it
I always considered myself lucky to be able to do it

If I ever said "easy" I apologize to all and retract that statement.

I just have such fond memories...and I never felt isolated, either. My first was back in the days before the internet even, but my life was a social whirlwind, lol. With other SAHMs and their babies, the occasional nanny. But we all DID stuff together. Parks, doggie parks, play dates. Sometimes with wine, lol.


Life was good. Very, very good,

I spent 12 months off with both my kids and it was quite isolating. My friends have busy lives so most of the time we only managed to catchup once a fortnight or so. The rest of the time I was pretty much a home by myself with the kids so it was really tough mentally for me. I work part time now and that helps me keep my sanity. I would really struggle being a full-time stay at home mum.

On the flip side:

My jimmies get a bit rustled when the work I put in is dismissed with a flippant, "Oh, well kids haven't destroyed your body." OR "Oh, I wish I had time to go to the gym all the time like you since you don't have any kids." I am the first to give props to my fitness friends that have children and still find time to make living a healthy lifestyle a top priority. Have ya ever thought that maybe I would gladly give that up to experience the blessing of having children?

Small example: At flag football practice, I was playing center and got in position to hike the ball. One of the running backs says, "Dang, Taiga got some booty!" I respond with, "Squats, girl. Lots of squats!" Another girl on the team chimes in with, "Oh, but she doesn't have any kids." AAARRGGHHHH!!! The speaking about me in 3rd person while I was RIGHT THERE may have also contributed to the irritation lol.

Many of the women I look up to (and aspire to emulate physique-wise) in the fitness industry and in my own small circle are mothers. So, I really hate when women use that as an excuse or dismiss the hard work I put in.

Whew...stepping off the soap box, now.

My fitness became a priority after I had kids. The "kids" excuse is one that many mothers use.... It's rubbish, just like every other excuse! It simple... You either do it or you don't. If you can manage to watch an hour of TV a day then you have enough time to do a workout instead. Sorry to hear about your infertility issues... love to you.

Rustles are jimmied!

I had some cosmetic dental work done, all ok for a few months. Then out of the blue, awful hot and cold sensitivity, anything not at room temperature is torture, even breathing through my mouth is painful, and the pain lingers for up to half an hour afterward. I go to the dentist, she takes more x-rays (by now my teeth practically glow in the dark from all the x-rays I have had this year), pokes around a bit, and tells me she can see nothing wrong, sorry, so... suck it up!

Try some sensitive toothpaste. I had that happen once. I used sensodyne for a few months and then could go back to normal toothpaste. It never happened again!

Good to know, I'll try it.

Jimmies, they be a rustlin'...

Work Reception at a company that deals mostly with sales of pipeline supplies. Lots of calls in and calls out. I deal with the majority of calls in and forward them accordingly.

Sales gets busy today. Certain people tell me they can't take phonecalls because they're on a 'project team' this week. Proceed to forward calls to other people. Other people come up, ask why I'm not sending calls to 'project team'. I tell them 'project team' wasn't taking phone calls. Turns out there is no project, and that they should be taking calls. 'Project team' comes up to me afterwards and chews me out for going to the boss. Boss comes up and chews me out for not telling him about the 'project team' dodging calls. Sales people chew me out for overloading them with calls all day.

Eye twitching from frustration at the situation.

My gentleman friend is not 100% comfy with me posting ass pics on the Internet.


Before i put them in my bodyspace I asked my 18 y/o son if he would have a problem with it. He didn't but thinks taking and posting pics of one's self is incredibly vain.


I suppose I should delete? I realize relationships are about compromise. If it bothers him THAT much....


I was married for so long to someone who didn't give a **** what I did, ever (until I started hanging out with someone else; then all of a sudden he's Mr. Concerned) I'm not experienced in dealing with this.


Would YOU delete? Should I?

I would say if it worries you he is not comfy with it maybe so... but nice ass there DD!!!

how do you feel about it? did you talk to him?
when I was still married I did not post anything my husband would have considered risque or ya know..anything that made him uncomfortable out of respect for him.
but that is just me..and who I was married to (controller)
some men dont mind at all..some men might mind but may not be telling you
have you talked it over with him?

I can see this from your side though..going from mr. no concern to mr. concern not necessarily a bad thing right? just different

[SacredVas]

My man would be upset if I was showing off my ass-ets on the internet. I understand where he's coming from, and I understand where I'm coming from.

In the end, I personally wouldn't. If it bothers him that much, no sense causing problems because of a photo.

Guess that begs the question of, if it turns into a fight, would it be worth the fight?

Alternatively, rather than posting pictures of your butt, post a full body shot someone took of you from behind? That way you can show off your gains without being super sexy/advertising about it, maybe?

I already screenshotted them too late now.

[Botika]

If my husband was concerned about photos I'd posted I'd probably just delete them. It wouldn't be worth a fight to keep them up. I know he is not possessive in other areas of my life so it wouldn't be a big deal.

[aristomeow]

Would bother me if my man posted his ass on the internet so that's my take on it really..

[Wyomann]

I've actually wanted to post my GFs booty on the squat booty thread. I'm sort of a retarded bear though, so I dunno.

[discdoggie]

We are not married.

And we do not fight. Nothing I would do or not do would cause a fight.


I just find it weird he would even comment. He usually says so little about anything.


I asked if he wanted me to delete.


He said," I just don't want creeps or freaks looking at my girlfriend's ass."

I don't see any gratuitous shots. Your bf probably isn't used to bb type shots. I'd show him Kimm4's picts

[discdoggie]

We are put but I will delete when we get back home

Of course I'd delete them.... seems strange though to have to ask to delete an ass picture on a web site about bodies , if my GF had pictures of her ass on here (I think she does) I wouldn't ask her to delete them
because I know her well enough to know she has them up for the right reason and not to attract men

posting pictures of one self IS INCREDIBLY VAIN

[discdoggie]

He never asked me
To delete them.


I just figured I would if the pics made him feel weird

creeps will always look at your ass or whatever turns them on regardless
if he saw a chick with a nice ass would he look or turn the other way ? does that make him a creep ?? no

you can walk down the street and some creep might be looking at your ass and you won't even know it

[Wyomann]

He said," I just don't want creeps or freaks looking at my girlfriend's ass."

Meet my uncle Frank. He's been starting at the booty thread all day

[BrotherWolf]

He never asked me

then do it .. it's the right thing to do IMO

[aristomeow]

see that's hypocritical ..creeps will always look at your ass or whatever turns them on regardless

Some interesting points there. I think with me it would be the "ownership" of the visual. Yeah, someone on the street might look at my azz, but it will be at best a momentary glance and at worse, a steady perv.. but they're probably not going to be able to take a picture and save it for later.

I was at the beach a few weeks ago, in a tiny bikini. Not a single fuk was given about who looked at me, until a creepy dude with a camera started floating around near me and tried to talk to me. I nearly lost my sh!t at him.

[Ma110W]

That I cant rep LBM or Dana for their C&B's in the breast cancer thread because I've repped them too recently. I need to learn how to rep other posters (I'm really trying to get better at it.)

Also, RM(own)J by taking so long to open the breast cancer thread up. Could have been helping this whole time. So mad at myself.
