I am starting to experience difficulties with bending over. I can still do it, but it's a bit of a struggle. For some reason, grunting seems to help with the process. Letting the dogs out sounds like a sumo wrestler session.
And now on to ignorant bliss. . .
My coworker (remember the one who got pregnant on her first try) and now has a three-month old and I were discussing the state fair. For the dangers of the state fair, see the the anguished corn. She mentioned how great it would to be pregnant and to eat one's way through the fair. And then amazingly said, "That's what I'll do next year. I'll be pregnant for the fair." I was taken aback. Isn't that nice to think one can plan these things?
My other coworker, the 40-year-old pregnant one, was discussing her OB appointments. She mentioned "that thing they use to hear the heartbeat." I said, "You mean the doppler?" She responded, "Oh, that's what it's called." I said, "Yes, I have one at home. I find it reassuring to hear the baby's heartbeat whenever I want." The obviously blissfully ignorant response, "I'm still eating and still getting fat, so I assume baby is growing just fine." I refrained from sharing my thoughts.

Lol. A wise decision I'm sure. :)
Don't you love those conversations? Ugh.
I had a fertile co-worker announce she was pregnant b/c she "thought" she saw a second line. The whole school knew. Turns out she "thought" wrong. But she is now pregnant.
Get pregnant for the fair? Ignorance is bliss, for sure.
I'm so glad to hear that I'm not the only one grunting as I struggle to get up and down.
Blech. People really think like this? And then say it out loud?
you should smack their forhead like the v8 commercial! SERIOUSLY
Wow. That really is ignorance isn't it. I can't even imagine thinking that way!
And FYI - I'm with you on the bending over. My toe nails need to be fixed up and painted really badly but I simply cannot do it without a lot of discomfort. I suppose this means I should book a pedicure, right???
UGH
