Must be nice to have a dinner and shopping date night every single weekend and to be able to post pictures of it on FB, all while collecting food stamps and sending your kid off to someone else for the night. Yeah, I'm bitter. Even with both of us working (well, I'm not as of a week and a half ago) I cannot remember the last time we did anything together. I wouldn't find it so annoying if they didn't get state aid and if she would stop bitching about not having room for another baby. Every couple deserves alone time.

i believe dreams can tell us a lot about ourselves and our situations in life. that said, i had a dream that taught me something about myself. i dreamed that i was at a family get together, and sd and her baby were there. as usual, i ignored her existence. my aunt asked her how she liked being a mom, and sd was just gushing about how it was the best thing that ever happened to her, she loves him so much, etc. i lost it. i started crying and said "now do you understand why what happened to me was so hard?
