Let it out.
Re: Monday B*tch fest
For context, his wife (my stepmom, they've been together since I was 6) and I don't really get along for a lot of reasons and our relationship is strained, as are my relationships with other members of her family (I didn't tell any of them, other than my dad, about being PG; my grandmother actually was the one who blurted it out to stepmom because I didn't tell her it was a secret at the time xD). My dad and I had a rough patch for a while but now we are a lot closer than we used to be. So yesterday I call my dad for Father's Day, and it was a good call until he started sending me around the table to talk to my stepmom and her parents. She asks me how I'm feeling, I say good, and then the conversation with her mom is short and awkward. My dad alluded to a secret while passing me around and so we get to my stepmom's dad and he goes "what's this secret?" and I go "oh, there's no secret, I'm just pregnant" and he says "oh...well, that'll be interesting." (this sentiment is indicative of the general lukewarm/cool responses I get from everyone in the family)
I've been dealing with this part of the family for two decades now and all I can say is that I am glad to live across the country.
AFM: I’m flying to a customer visit today, and airport security was a mess. The line was short, but I swear TSA forgot how to efficiently move people through the line. The belt I was at ended up with an error alarm (not their fault) so they decided to have me move over to a different belt. I already had everything unpacked, so I went to grab my trays and was told I couldn’t take them. So I had to pack everything up and take it to the end of a different line. Then my stuff didn’t end up together at all, so my computer and phone were just hanging out waiting for me when I finally got through. I just keep telling myself that it’s a direct flight, so everything doesn’t matter because once I land, I’m done until Wednesday.
my Monday bitch fest is that the hormone relaxin is already giving me ligament pain and sacroiliac pain on my lower back. So me and ds are having a lazy day at the house!
@makingbacon how annoying. I hope your flight was uneventful and you’re able to have a nice evening now that your probably landed.
