Yes have certainly had a few of those moments!! The one that stands out is the time I had made banana cake for DH to take to work & I went to make the lemon icing only to find I had no icing sugar....
Well - I was inconsolable, anyone would've thought there had been a death. I could NOT stop crying!! I was so devastated. I couldn't go & get more icing sugar as DH was about to leave for work, which defeated the purpose of making the damn cake.
I sobbed & sobbed. DH tried to console me but everytime he said "icing sugar" I cried harder & howled "stop saying those words!!" All he could do was rub my back & let me cry.
Anyway DH eventually had to leave, he was already late by this stage. It was a night duty so I was alone all night. I tried to busy myself but cried for hours. Eventually I calmed down...but everytime I remembered what happened I burst into tears again!!
BTW DH took some cake to work without icing. But that didn't help me because it wasn't my plan & plus I felt like he was only doing it out of sympathy.
I cried, and sobbed on the lounge after watching a taped episode of the biggest loser finale just recently....i was so happy, so emotional that all these people had lost some wieight and made a diff to their lives.....- my 3 yr old daughter was hugging me and patting me saying 'its okay mum, tis okay........'. I was a blubbering mess.....
Briggsy Girl - Totally understandable about the bushfires, its funny what will set you off. We were affected by the fires too, and like you i was completely calm the whole time, didnt fall apart not even when dad messaged us goodbye (he was caught in it - luckily he survived though) We had the TV on religiously watching the builtins and i didnt cry at all until DF said ok enough you need to get some sleep. The thought of turning the TV off was enough to set me off. Completly irrational that a TV would make me cry like it did - but i suppose it was just the catalyst. Althogh - DF didnt change the channel or turn the TV off for 6 days after that! Its strange how together you can be in situations like that, dealing with massive confronting issues can be done without a drama, but little things can send you over the edge.
and i so know what your talking about with Macleods Daughters - the episode where claire died... horrific! That show has a way of getting to you!
Cheezlemonster - You poor thing! and being home on your own after it!
All hell breaks loose if I break the yolk. You have me in the corner crying and frustrated because its not working - DH standing over the food trying to make me feel better - to no avail.
He doesn't let me cook often when I am pg anymore. Between that and the burn marks on my stomach because I havent yet learnt to stand back a bit... LOL.
I cried over the story of Christian the lion story.Even the promos for it sent me weeping.Its just such an incredible story, oh great here I go again now Im welling up thinking of him
I was in so many tears last Sunday because I couldn't find the pants I like to wear!!!
I was inconsolable. My poor DH. Then I started crying because I said something mean to him and didn't mean it at all - about the pants.
My dad then rang to see what we were doing for the day and I couldn't talk. So my mum and dad were then worried about what on Earth had happened to me. When I snapped out of it I rang them and said I was just having a really silly moment - they caught me at a bad time.
When she was pg with me, she and Dad had just bought their first home. Mum was very pg, and her new washing machine turned up in the delivery truck. So the young bloke doing the delivery brought it in, hooked it up and told Mum it was ready to go. She was all excited and came into the laundry to have a look and...it was the wrong colour.
Mum said she burst into tears straight away!!! The poor delivery guy was straight on the phone to his boss saying "I have a really pregnant lady here and the washing machine's the wrong colour!" Poor bloke packed up the machine, went and got her the proper colour and installed that one
I can so relate to that!!
Im not even pregnant and I cried my eyes out watching Marley and Me!!!
Im a crier anyway though - not sure why - I burst into tears listening to songs on the radio, ads on TV, I was uncontrollable tonight watching Desperate Housewives, I cry for no reason at the gym watching video clips and running on the tredmill! lol
Cant say Ive ever made myself vomit though
The worst was definitely watching The Notebook 4 months pregnant....that was not pretty - I was crying in the first 5 minutes!! Made DH cry too though so I felt better - I could cry with abandon! rofl
