Dear weird separate worlds of natural birthing chicks and medical establishment,
Um, hi, I like doctors but I want some control over my body. Why is this such a fucking problem? As usual, I don't quite fit in anywhere. Why are you both being so difficult?
And a shout out to women - mother fuck, y'all are annoying. Why is every topic so fucking emotional? I want studies and facts. I don't need to grieve my hospital birth and I don't care if you feel guilty about yours. Sometimes I hate you all. Sorry, I am cranky.
hugs and kisses,
itw

Dear ITW,
Um, are you with *cough*baby?!!!*cough*. If you are...massive congrats!
If you're not...just ignore me![]()
I am quite easy on this topic...though I am emotional and probably annoying. My current position is I don't care where or how I have one....i just want one.And hopefully soon before i wake up and find the menopause upon me

Dear Leroy Brown,
You're a fucking charlatan and I'm coming for you. I'm the baddest man in the whole damn town.
We need the fb "like" option. I'd really like to "like" this.
Dear ITW,
Whenever you may next be expecting have whatever kind of birth you want. Whatever you need to feel safe and peaceful and loved - do that. Screw everyone else. It's not their birth anyway.![]()

Ha, no, you can't possibly be annoying. And I hope you get everything you wish for minxie.



Dear X
We've been sisters-in-law for quite a long time so I thought the parameters of our relationship were fairly well established by now; ergo, you hate me and my family and I am not all that fond of you either. But I do try to get along with you, honestly.
I feel bad for you that your life is completely controlled by your obsessions with cleanliness and hygiene. I am sure that must make day-to-day living incredibly difficult. But truly, there is no need to be such a bitch to everyone and judge them by your own impossible standards.
I hate spending time in your home because of your fixation with cleaning and the way that your house reeks of chemical air fresheners and sanitisers. I hate the way that nothing is ever out of place there and that everything you cook tastes like it has been boiled in bleach. I hate the fact that you don't have any books - "because they carry germs" and that you won't let the kids join a library for that reason - wtf?
Most of all, I think what I really hate is your fear of everything and your unwillingness to let anyone help you. Because I would help you if you would let me.
And by the way, here's what your kids got up to when they stayed with us over the school holidays a couple of weeks ago. I doubt they will tell you because they know they wouldn't be allowed to come and stay here again.
*Stayed up past midnight if they felt like it
*slept on the floor and sofa if they felt like it
*Didn't take baths or showers until they actually smelled (I did intervene at that point)
*Ate chocolate cake for dinner. And steak for breakfast
*Camped out in the haybarn overnight - there's rats in there as well
*Drove 4WD quad bikes in mud and ice
*Drove a car around the property
*Lit an enormous bonfire
*Went fishing and fell in the river - several times.
*Baked bread
*Helped a sheep deliver twin lambs and then saw the sheep die
*bottle fed orphan twin lambs through the night (they are thriving now)
*Dug manure into the garden and planted seedlings
*Learned how to play poker. For money
*Shot some wild rabbits and possums
*Chopped firewood using axes and a chainsaw.
*Helped the neighbor slaughter and process a pig.
