I was wondering the same thing,@peach. An unbiased third-party might be able to help bridge the relationship back to what it was.

Morning ladies. School for ds and quiet morning for dd and I. Ds needed to bring a 2ft stick with a point to put a bread rooster on for Easter parade, so guess what this mama was doing this morning. You guessed it! Taking the bark of and pointing a wooden stick with an army knife, oh the things we do for our kids!

Thanks guys. My surgery isn’t until 12:30 but Dh let me sleep in so I just woke up at 9. I’m very hungry and can’t eat so this will be a long few hours!

I was wondering the same thing,@peach. An unbiased third-party might be able to help bridge the relationship back to what it was. No. My brother is unwilling to listen to any other point of view except the one he's decided on as truth. Forever it's been me compromising on everything and I'm just really tired of compromising at the detriment of my family to appease him. He's an alcoholic and a drunk and I'm just sick of putting up with it. I've always dealt because of dad and then because of my nephews but I'm just done. It's affecting my kids and I'm not going to let it. SIL not acknowledging Matthew was the final straw for me. If she can ignore her nephews and pretend they don't even exist then we obviously never really meant anything to her to begin with.

@peach, that's terrible. I'm sorry. Do they also live on the property you're building on? Will you have to deal with your brother in your new work capacity?

wedding I hope everything goes well today. How long do they expect the surgery to last? nam2013 a 4 year old bringing a 2 ft pointed stuck to school here would put every town in 10 miles on lock down. peachsmama I'm sorry about your brother. We cut one of DH's brothers out of our lives about 3 years ago. I always feel bad about my nieces. It's easier for us because they live an hour away so we don't randomly run into them.

wineallthetime did you ever get discharged? Are you staying in the NICU overnight or going home? I did! Discharged Saturday and staying with A. I'm sure I'll start going back and forth some, but I don't want to leave him and at this point I need help with the older kids anyway untill I'm a bit more recovered!

Snip nam2013 a 4 year old bringing a 2 ft pointed stuck to school here would put every town in 10 miles on lock down. And now imagine 65 4yo with them 😉.

Right now it's not a big deal with it being cold. Summer will be trickier.. He's not involved in my dads business is any way at all, luckily.

wedding FX for a smooth surgery and quick recovery! wineallthetime I am so happy to hear you and baby A are doing well! Definitely take that time to heal abd be with him while you can. peachsmama I'm sorry, family drama is the worst. I hate to say it, but things have been a lot more peaceful for me after putting some distance in with certain family members. It's still hurtful, but sometimes it may be for the best. Also, time may be just what you guys need to move past all of this.
