Wow...after reading my discussion again about moving and the stress of everything...(My confession)...don't think I will ever do another post like that again. Some of you were supportive and I truly appreciate that. 
I was in tears when I wrote that by the way...
Some of you well... your not perfect in case no one has told you lately-psst-you sin too! 
Usually I am a very grateful person. As some of you already know there is a LOT that I'm going through right now... At times I fall short because it all comes crashing down around me.
First and foremost for those that don't already know...I am 31 weeks pregnant. Hormones do come with that (in case you didn't know) and can make an ant hill seem like a mountain.
I have 4 children, who are amazing but who are also getting impatient about this move.
I have Aunt Mary who complains every second of every day about every single thing you can imagine.
I am packing an ENTIRE house by MYSELF. I am cleaning every corner of this house so it looks the way it did before we moved in.
I have been getting very little sleep since Julian is on strike apparently, usually about 3-5 hours a night. 
I literally don't see my husband at all, he's been getting home at 10pm or later every single night- he gets home, showers, eats and goes to bed. (Understandable but I miss him too).
I know the people that truly care about me and my well being here and I thank you! I AM GRATEFUL-just had a crazy lapse of judgment.

You have so much going on right now and to add to all of the that holidays are two weeks away. You are doing the best you can do and if you ask me you are handling it very well. We all have our weak moments, none of us are perfect. Have a great evening and never feel badly about what you post. There are many of us on here who care about great deal about you and your family.

@Happy2beme It all seems super overwhelming at times...last night was one of those times. I was definitely having a weak moment but maybe should have kept it to myself? I don't know, lesson learned I suppose.
Thank you for always being here for me and caring so much! It means the world to me!

Wow, you have a lot on your plate! And CONGRATULATIONS!! Even with the raging hormones, being pregnant is a most joyful condition. I loved being pregnant and got to do it twice!
Pooh on those who judge. After living 62 years I've found that no, no one is perfect. I'm appalled at the me I used to be in my 20s and 30s, so judgmental and self-righteous, I knew everything and everyone was so dumb not to listen to me! How did anyone stand me?! Those who judge just need to grow up, ya know?
Have a great night!

@dragon45u Yes I really do. Thank you. I absolutely love being pregnant too! =)
Thank God I never thought I was perfect, but I did think most of my life that I was unworthy and unwanted until I found the Lord.

I just don't get negative, nasty people. I follow a few YouTubers who are really positive, inspirational people. They are all about positivity. Then you scroll down and read the comments and there's always a bunch of bad apples saying nasty stuff... literally FOR NO REASON. I just don't get it.
Don't hesitate to vent here. I do it all the time and find tremendous support. We're a great bunch of people. Unfortunately there are few bad apples in this world we live in.

@patgalca I don't think it was meant to be mean, but in my current state that's how I took it. I wasn't ready to share that here and I didn't realize it until it was too late. My mistake.
I know there are so many wonderful people here who have been nothing but sweet and comforting-I appreciate it so much!

You are a wonderful person . . . believe that first! Every now and then we all get koo-koo overwhelmed with things . . . it happens to all of us - in different ways - but it happens - and that's life. We can all relate! You are most caring and I just know things will work out for you and your family!

I am here for you.
I think that you are a very strong person as well as family to undertake this move, like you said when you are that far along.
I know that it must not be easy but know that you've helped pull me out of the dumps, so I am here to do the very same for you.
I hope that Julian settles down and gets back into a sleep routine, and that you can too.
Stay strong Jenn, stay strong.

@LovingMyBabies No, I don't think that you can blame it on emotions.
There are some members who leave comments that they obviously do not read before the submit, because they are rude. I think that I read that comment, and I would have felt the same way, but what would I have blamed it on-LOL

No one should have judged you for that discussion. You needed to vent and you did. You are going through a lot right now and we hope that things get under control for you soon.

@sugartoes I haven't really wanted to go back to that discussion just yet. There were a few comments that hurt more than helped. I was in tears as I wrote it and I think I needed more support than put downs.

People actually CRITICIZED you for that post?! I'm so sorry. It's hard to be vulnerable, and when you get crapped on for it that's hard to do again. Please don't think about them when sharing; imagine how sad their lives must be to judge you based on that post.

@AmbiePam It's possible my emotions just weren't ready to handle some of the comments I got. They might not have meant it the way I took it. I'm in a bad way right now. Super emotional and tired.
Thank you for being supportive.

I hope that once the move is out of the way you get a bit of a break. You are dealing with a lot. Can you ask any family or friends for a bit of help in the days ahead?

@LovingMyBabies Yep you can blame it all on pregnancy hormones and also just being excited to get into your new home. We all understand and are here for you to vent anytime.

That is ok I can understand what you are going through moving and having kids to take care and pregnant with another one on the way. That is a lot to deal with. I raised six children and that alone increases your stress. You are doing the best that you can and we are all here to support you. Take care of you first.

@LadyDuck I don't think it was a judgment per se, just on the harsher side of things. Maybe I should have just wrote what I was feeling in a journal instead of here where everyone could see me lose it...
Thank you for understanding and being supportive.

@LovingMyBabies Sometimes sharing with the others makes us feel better, it's not the same writing in a journal.

How could anyone not be supportive? You just don´t go and overdo things. I had to do everything every time we moved and I suppose it will happen again. I like to leave everything as it was but you must rest as well says me who was up till all hours of the Night still working away and heavily pregnant too. Mine was four times I know just how that feels. Hugs.

You sound overwhelmed. I think anyone in your situation would be. Moving is very high on the stress factor index and none of us would want to do it pregnant. Aunt Mary shoud help, shut up or get out. I do not know which post you are referring to, but I would delete whst upset you and keep the rest. At 34 weeks I was too big and too exhausted to do anything so having four kids and sorting out a house move with an absent husband seems beyond the capabilities of even Superwoman and without the hormones. Just share whatever you need to share to help here and as I say, delete anything not 100%supportive.

Haters are gonna hate. Don't let them bring you down! You're going through a lot right now, and it can get overwhelming. Just keep your head up, and know in your heart that you are a loving, caring person. Life can throw us curveballs every now and then, and sometimes we're not ready for them, and it can cause us to say or do things we later regret. But don't ever feel bad for expressing your feelings or frustrations you had at the time...those were legitimate emotions you were struggling with at the time.
