CONFESSIONAL

I’m fed up with nobody believing me when I say this house is fucking haunted.

This year started off so so so terrible and is ending with so many blessings. Pandemic can suck a dick but there are good things.

My husband is a cop and is working on thanksgiving. I wish so badly we could trade spots so he would have to drag three tired cranky kids under 5 to two family dinners.

How have I gotten so lazy? I used to be so motivated.

It’s only 10 in the morning, and DH is already acting like a dick on Thanksgiving. Why? We don’t have to entertain. This is the kind of holiday he loves. I wish he would just fuck off.

I feel superior to my mom because I make holiday meals from scratch, as opposed to opening a bunch of cans. Also, I’m not screaming, getting drunk, and hitting my kids.

Fuck anyone who says I should express gratitude today. I’ll be as bitchy and salty as I want.

I know another lock down is needed, but being stuck in the house with DC for months at a time again might break me.

When does the, “Look, Mommy!” Phase end? I’m ready to be ignored by my children.

I'm trying to be positive today for my kids but my sister died last year and holidays are hard. Not having family here is making it unbearable

My at risk parents are having 3 large families over for Thanksgiving and all I want to do is scream ‘WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU THINKING?!“ at them

I have to clean the kitchen before I can even start on the food because my husband trashed it last night while I was at work.

I'm drinking a Blue Moon at 6am because fuck it, it's Thanksgiving & I do what I want.

Sister cries poor every holiday season and expects to be hosted. She's 41, pays for multiple exercises classes and gym memberships, and goes to bars and nights out with friends. She can afford to cobble together a small gathering (not this year).

Just came to realize much of my sadness and isolation right now is because DH and DD are both narcissists. They aren’t capable of understanding that I am tired of being the only one who cooks, cleans or does laundry. Can I get the courage to leave?

My school is not informing staff or parents when there is a positive case of covid. Just because you keep it quiet doesn’t mean it’s not happening. So angry!!!

Getting just one day off for Thanksgiving and just one day for Christmas makes it feel like just another work week. Depressing.

I feel like I’m held hostage in this life. I wish I was never born, I am depressed but I’m too much of a coward to commit suicide. I’ve begged God to take my life so many times. I just can’t anymore...

I am so fucking depressed. It never goes away! Can’t even enjoy the ups coz the downs will come soon after. I hate it here!

I have and carry a concealed handgun everywhere because, the one time I called 911, it took the police 25 minutes to arrive.

If it weren’t for my Valium prescription, the stress and anxiety of 2020 would have literally killed me. It doesn’t take a strong dose, but thank God I have it to take the edge off when my anxiety gets really bad.

I desperately want to get back into the office instead of working from home. I'm much less productive at home (too easily distracted), and I'm afraid that'll cost me my job if it goes on much longer.

My feelings for my daughter have changed.

H exaggerates and embellishes details so much that I tune him out when he tells me about something that happened to him during his day or something he read. The man can’t not lie.

Being home with DH for the past 8 months has rekindled a sweetness in him. I love it. He really is my rock and partner and sometimes I forget that. Love you, DH!

I left an abusive relationship and now I have to listen to my neighbour do the same thing to his family. This behaviour is going on all around us and it destroys lives

I just want one day of things being easy. One day of feeling like I’m not totally failing.

You guys I am really about to crack. In a way I sort of want to so I can stop doing all the things.

My ILs invited every other one of their spawn and their SOs to thanksgiving except DH and our kids. Just another reason why they’ll end up rotting in a cheap nursing home.

I just want someone to eat me out till I *O* . Is that so much to ask?

I'm not even looking forward to the holidays this year. It just feels like another day in a never ending string of days.

I was pressured at work to say I wasn’t working with a coworker who is Covid positive. They are trying to cover up the cases. How could that possibly go wrong?

I feel like a loser most of the time being stay at home mom.

Lowkey planning to spend winter break at my mom's in FL (she invited us) even though driving for days in this pandemic scares me. We live in MN tho and I can't handle the thought of being pandemic-stuck inside all miserable winter. Give me the beach pls.

Step kids come over, make a mess and expect me to clean it up. Now my own kids are asking why they have to but sk don't, and kids are starting to leave messes for me. Fuck no! I'm sick of it.

My family is not meeting my already low expectations

My SO is a bigger piece of shit than I make it to be and not as nice/good of a person all his Facebook “friends” think he is. He’s a liar and a cheat and a downright mean, evil person.

I have to leave this before he actually does snap and kill me. I will not let me son deal with the losing his mom like I did. Please pray for me y’all. I need out.

DD8 told me something her best friend had done and I thought it was funny. Turns out the poor kid was grounded for two days. Parents need to lighten up sometimes. It's ok.

H' snoring will be what puts me over the edge.
