Can be a real bummer sometimes. Things come up sure, but man... It sure is hard.

I'm just a stay at home mom that wants to go have drinks with her husband and have a good time.

Oh well... This is life!!! Just had to vent

I'll just get to enjoy time with my little girl anyways!!

Girl, it's hard.

My mom watches my son while I work, so she feels like thats her time and won't watch him outside of that. My dad has a 2 yr old daughter, a fulltime job AND just started his own business, so there goes that.

I cannot even remember the last time I went out.

Edit: I did go to CO a little over a month ago for a weekend...but that's only cause my best friend stayed at my place and watched him. A rarity for sure.

I should start offering baby sitting services! After August though. But after that... I might just do that.

AND... just because I don't want kids... doesn't mean I'm not good with kids. I love playing with kids. I have tons of fun with them.

I just know I don't want to own one, because I like my freedom and all that.

lol karen, you think anyone is going to trust you with their kids?

i'm just sayin.

I don't TOTALLY hate children either but I talk shit about them all the time and you don't know how many times I've heard people say this to me haha

HA! Actually I'm very mature and responsible. Many people are taken aback when they see me with kids. They are shocked that I play with them and enjoy their company.

I don't want any of my own... but that doesn't mean I don't like kids. Just means I'm smart enough not to have any.

my kid is almost self sufficient. actually i think she was born that way.

We have ours crate trained. It's really convenient, and they make way less of a mess that way.

Karen is one of the most reponsible people I know. She may bitch about dumb squids that have stupid parents, but that doesn't mean she hates all kids or will treat them badly. I would totally let her watch my kids if we had any.

Lol right? I like being able to crate our dogs and leave. The only sucky thing is during times where we want to go somewhere overnight, then we are pwnty for sure.

Roozbeh is watching the babies this weekend so we can go to Austin, YAY! I am very paranoid about them starting trouble so I can only trust them with a few people. I don't want people that I don't think can handle pits watching them. That sucks too.
