Be careful what you wish for MIL
Okay. Can't wait to vent, and since most of you are actually up .... Here it goes.
So BIL started dating this girl a few months back. I've known them Both for a majority of their lives. I kinda pushed them to get together. Now dont get me wrong, they are a good couple, and would have probably gotten together anyway, but nonetheless, I feel like I have a part in this. And I do. I always end up in the middle of their relationship. And of course tonight, I wish I wasn't.
But then again , someone has to be the responsible adult here.
They had a bit of an argument last night about her hanging out with a friend who is a guy. Completely see both sides , and refusing to take sides, I try to give them advice to talk it out. So I see her tonight at my dance class (that's how I know her) and she pulls me into the back to talk to me alone. I figure , of course that it is going to be about their fight last night. Nope. Of course not. She drops the 'I think I might be pregnant' bombshell on me.
So basically, I've spent the entire night trying not to panic and think of everything.... Wouldn't have as much of a problem with this if they were a bit older. She's 20, and in her second last semester of nursing school, and he's 18 and still in high school, (probably going to be valedictorian might I add.) Plus, they've only been Dating for about three months. I was going to go with her to buy a test tonight, but she had a lot of work to do, and didn't want to know tonight.
So basically, I am panicking. Seriously panicking. Had to drink some hard liquor to even get myself to calm down , and I still can't sleep, even though I have to be at work early.
It's not baby jealously at all. This is I don't want them to have a baby yet cause they are nowhere near ready for it.
But I love the irony of it all though. On thanksgiving, MIL joked that it was up to him to give her grandchildren, because j and I aren't doing it fast enough for her, and the other brother swears that he isn't going to get married anytime soon. I've been saying the whole time since she said that, that she should be careful what she wishes for. And, yep. I was right. But this wasn't the way I wanted to be right.
Thanks for reading. Vent over. Still won't be able to sleep though. I'll keep you all updated.

Eeek.
Keep us posted.
01.21.2012---> I married a redhead I'm crazy about.
04.2016: IT'S A BOY! Elias Alan is due!
WDW trips: 05/14 (1st trip! Art of Animation; Little Mermaid), 05/15 (Pop Century!). DL Trips: 12/15
I do have a competition Saturday. It's Salisbury , the first one of the year. I'm really nervous though because we lost both of our practices this week, and I've never been to one before.
It's just one of those things that I am nervous because I just don't know what they are like, and when you are trying to deal with kindergarteners and trying to get them ready for it...
That sucks....:(
Just really frustrated, because the builder is telling me that the seller is telling him one thing, and I am hearing a complete other thing from the realtors. I just want them to go bye bye right now!
I'm sorry. It's not fun being in the middle of this. At least in your case the contract has lapsed and if you need to you could walk away. In my case, I was stuck in the middle of a binding contract and couldn't walk away from it.
Not saying you want to walk away from it, but just that the option is there. Hrm. Wonder if you threatened to walk what they'd do....
