Updates Galore

Okay, so there aren't that many updates, but there are a couple. First up, I went and saw my RE today for my post surgery follow-up. It was an awesome appointment, and one that left me giddy all day. For those awesome details, visit this post.

Thank you to everyone for your advice on the FB ordeal. It was really fun to read all of your responses. I got a good chuckle out of it. In the end, I went ahead and friended her. Like most of you suggested, I will probably unfriend her later. *evil laugh* She can snoop, see how fantastic my life is, and then be done. I mean, I kind of enjoyed doing the same with her. I can say, she has apparently turned into quite the artist. I wish I was able to express my creativity with paint the way she does. I'm quite envious. I am also a little surprised that she isn't married. When I knew her previously she was slightly overweight, but she was still an above average looking girl. Now she is quite pretty and thin. Maybe I'll send her a message and say hello again. Like you all said, I have no idea what was going on in her life a couple of years ago, and maybe seeing my life was a sore spot for her. She probably saw me happy and married, all the while ignorant to what my life really was, as I was in the thick of infertility treatments. The grass is always greener, eh?

As for my BIL, we haven't been in contact since before the Munchkin's birthday in February. She did call my husband a couple of weeks ago and ripped him a new one about the fact that her dad had more pictures than I ever gave her, and that he had recent ones. Had I known she was yelling at him about that, I would have taken the phone and given her Cain for it. I still stand firm, if she wants to be a part of my family, she needs to apologize and be sincere about it, not call and rip my husband a new one for things that go on between her and I.

I did ask DH after that phone call if he wanted me to send her pictures and cards. He told me that if he thought she needed those things, he would send them, so the fact that he hadn't meant he agreed with me. That made me feel better. Since his grandpa died, he has been sticking up for his mom a bit more, so I wanted to make sure it was okay if I kept my end of the deal with her.

Anyway, I have much better things going on in my life, and I am really focused on them and moving forward. I have a great idea for a post, and I am excited to write it up after this one. :D
