Totally normal reaction lookforstars. I'm speechless. Is this out of character for her?
For a little more info: I've been annoyed with her for the last month or so, so I needed to make sure I wasn't just being weird about it. She started dating this guy, moved in with him, got engaged and now married him all within like 2 months. Which, fine, whatever. I'm glad she's happy. But when she called me up to tell me all about him about a month ago, after she finished telling me about how awesome things are she threw into the conversation that I wouldn't be hearing from her much anymore right now because she was so busy with him, the wedding planning, etc. It just seemed...insensitive. But, I'm incredibly sensitive right now.
But, I do hear from her...when she needs something. Like, a babysitter, or $4000. I'm just frustrated with her in general.
But to answer your question, prior to all this, I would have said it was out of character. I feel like she's lost her damn mind.
We're on our first trip with the baby and I'm hoping he's down for the night. This feels tenuous. Also, DH and I are using our phones as a makeshift baby monitor so we can hang out on the back porch with the rest of the family.
How are you using your phones as a monitor?
I'm not Isabel, but I assume you just call the other person's phone and put it with the baby, then you put your phone on mute and speakerphone and can listen for the baby.

Yep. I called DH from the bedroom and he put his phone on mute and speaker. I left my phone in the crib with DS. We could hear him, but he couldn't hear us.
FastHands, he did so, so well on the plane both ways! The trip was great. His naps were sporadic with so many people wanting to love on him and he was a little more subdued than normal, but overall he was really good.
I can't think of a single person I would give $4K to for a wedding, outside my own child.
I made an awesome strawberry pie this weekend. I used premade crust and blind baked the bottom, then rolled out the top and cut it into stars. Then I lined the bottom of the pie and stars with melted chocolate. Took about 1.5 quarts of strawberries, sliced up about 3/4 of them. Took the rest, mashed them with water (1/2 cup), sugar (1 cup) and cornstarch (3tbs). Brought to a boil and let it thicken for a few minutes, added a pat of butter and a splash of lemon juice to brighten it and set it aside to cool. Mixed in the rest of the fruit and poured it into the crust. YUM.

My brother and H's sister are both having relationship issues. I've spent the day helping my brother over the phone. H is on the phone with SIL talking her down. I'm sad they are in the situations they are in. Now is when I get homesick. I want to take them out to dinner and give them hugs.
Noah has requested crab legs and lobster for his birthday dinner tomorrow. Wtf kid, would you like a nice chilled Riesling while we're at it? He's turning 7 lol

This was me when I was his age. We got to eat out for our birthdays and I always picked Red Lobster* so I could get crab legs.
* I maintain that their food was way less shitty 30 years ago.

My nephew requested steak and shrimp at the same age, lol.
I've started the culinary school/nursing school debate again. I miss nursing school
My other career choice was nursing. Sometimes I wish I'd gone that way. Go be a nurse so I can live through you LOL
I kind of feel like a sell out. I love baking. It just feels so one note. Go in at 3 am bake for 8 hours, go home. I'm a really great nurse. I love patient care. I love being able to help people. It's rewarding. It was just the wrong time when I attempted it the last time.
today, I called the non emergency line to report two dogs in a car in 83 degree heat at our local home depot parking lot. I waited about 5 mins then left, but went back after I made a stop at another store. I felt so bad. By that time it was more than 25 mins. The communications officer I spoke to said they would send a cop out and asked if I wanted a follow up. I did but they never called back.
It hit me last night that I'll be 30 in October and I feel kind of freaked out now. I always said it wouldn't bother me. I don't know WTF is wrong with me.
Last night H was really under the influence and I was somewhat and he said something that sounded super "deep" last night, but now today I realize it wasn't at all.

I'm 37 and my 30's have been so awesome in many ways. They've actually been the best time of my life, much better than my 20's. I feel so much more confident, I know myself better and I know what I'm willing to put up with (and what I'm not). And sex is better. IDK, I feel like I just know myself more in my 30's.
I also was a little sad when I turned 30 but it's still very young and great things happen here.
