The Baby Quilt Disaster and the big lie
Thursday, August 21st, 2008Hello,
Thanks to you who answered my last blog!
Let me start out by saying the fabric land adventure purchase was a total disaster that involved 1 hour of bobbin fiddling along with patching a hole and countless seam rippings. The blanket I made turned out ok but in exchange for supper at my house my Nanny ( fancy name for Grandma) is going to come and do the other for me with me also giving my word never to touch the sewing machine again and sticking to making crochet blankets!
Recently I wrote about my best friend who was pregnant well she called me yesterday and said ” I lied to you?!” I said ” Oh really about what?” ” I am not pregnant” I was totally shocked. It turns out since she discovered I was trying to get preggies she felt as if she had to beat me to the game. Apprently because I got married first and I am younger she feels the need to try to get pregnant first. I told her that even though I am now hurt again ( after just getting over her whole pregnant lie in the first place) she shouldn’t feel like life events are a competition and she should just try to live her own life and follow her own rainbow and not to feel like her life has to be the same as mine.
To be honest feel a little relieved. I was feeling stressed that she was pregnant before me and 2 other of my friends are pregnant too so her not being pregnant takes a huge load off. But I am also hurt by the whole thing. Why lie about something like this!
Thanks for listening!
