Hey Ladies! Sorry to hear that you have so much going on. Praying for both of you that things will work themselves out.
Jmom - I am glad you had a good birthday and that you enjoyed yesterday. Have you told her that her name is not on the list and that she will not be allowed in if she goes? I know that they let people not on the list in if there are any open seats but maybe she doesn't know that. I am so sorry that you have had to write your son and have him make a choice but I understand that you don't want to spend all that money and have to deal with her. Do you think that she can afford to go? Keep thinking positive and praying about it. And come vent anytime! My son had a girlfriend that he broke up with just a few days before he left because she was getting to be controlling (she was mad because he played in a softball tournament the weekend before he left instead of spending all his time with her). She texted him the day he left and told him that she loved him so much and that she would be waiting for him. Well she is now living with a 30 something year old man (she is only 19). He knew that she would find someone else while he was gone. I at least thought it would take longer than 2 weeks. I am thankful that my son took care of her before he left and I haven't told him about what she is doing. We were real close up till the end. And now she won't talk to me because she knows that I am going to tell her that she is messing up. lol Not the same as yours because I know that she isn't going to PIR. Just thought it might make you feel a little better to know that we are all having some problems of our own. Hang in there and maybe it will take care of itself. I wouldn't let it keep me from going to see my son!
Kat - Sorry to hear that your daughter is having some trouble with her pregnancy. I used to work as a nurse in the L&D and know how serious this can be. When is the baby due? Hope you get there soon to help her! Keep us posted!!!!! -

Good Morning All - Hope everyone is having a great long weekend. Finally a morning with no rain so will try to clean the pool again. Cleaned it last weekend but then we had thunderstorms all week and couldn't use it. Oh well.
Jmom - don't worry about venting here. This is what we are all here for. The support and love here has and continues to be my life support. Go ahead - let it all out. Our strength and prayers are with you. Some people are just not happy unless they are making someone else miserable.
Sailor mom - prayers are with you and your daughter.
Have a great Sunday all. -
