Vent!

For the record, it is NEVER okay to comment on another woman's weight when you're not BFFs!

I am sitting here trying to figure out how to take the following "compliment".

Lady: You look great...with the weight gain and all..."
Me: Hmmmm..."Not sure how to respond to that"
Lady: "Oh, just saying you look great"

Scratching my head. Are folks for real???

This is not her pissed off face but I figured it conveys my feelings!


Oh and I just realized she has my eyes! YAY!!! JOE got something from her momma besides her cheeks :-).

Happy Tuesday folks!

  1. WOW... Some folks have NERRRVE!!! I woulda asked her when she was due, LOL!!! I always backhand compliment people right back when they do it to me and when they get offended I say "Oh, smarts just a little, eh? Well then, respect my ish and I will respect yours!" UGH.. Sidenote: JOE is gorgeous!! She looks like a little babydoll!

  2. After I had my last baby, my aunt, who hadn't seen me in about 10 years said, "What happened to you? You blew up!" Now that made me feel like a beluga whale.

    1. Ouch! Not cool! The thing is they really don't think they are saying something wrong. They feel they are trying to help. Oi...

    1. Yeah...I was trying to figure out how that was meant as a compliment.
      I really wish I was more quick witted.

      Thank you! I do squeeze her cheeks :-). Makes her smile.

  4. People are so rude I tell you. The funny thing is that she probably thought she was giving you a compliment. Some folks I tell you

    The look on JOE's face is priceless. Happy Valentine's day little girl

    1. I think she was intentionally being a little mean. She has said stuff like that to others before but never to me. I'll just ignore her from here on out.

      Thanks. She had a good Valentine's day. Daddy even got her a teddy for her first v-day! I have to post those pics. Completely forgot to.

    1. Yup...I agree. Insensitive but I think some people just get a rise out of making others feel bad.
      Awww...thank you! She is our pride and joy :-).

  7. those cheeks are too cute. as far meanies. there is nothing to do with them. i think it's okay to tell someone what they are saying is inappropriate. you have that right.

    1. I will next time. All I need to do is do it a couple of times and folks will know not to say something that inappropriate to me.

  8. ooh that makes me so mad...the nerve of that person. but to make you feel a little better about the insensitivity...i got a comment last week (in person) from a teen who asked if i was pregnant...some people should really just keep their mouths zipped at all times!!! look at JOE...she is too cute!
