Good news and bad news

Well the bad news is that Drew and I parted ways yesterday. I feel a little sad because we had made such plans for our future, but I know it was the right thing for me. There are parts of him that I will miss like crazy and parts that I won't miss at all, but we'll just leave it at that.

The good news is that for the first time in my life, I will be an auntie! My brother Mike and his wife Glenda are expecting a little booger-nugget, and I am so excited, I could cry! It's still early days in the pregnancy, but I'm just gonna go ahead and be thrilled regardless of the risks this early on. Lord knows I've dropped enough hints for them to get busy making me a niece or nephew, so this is cause for some celebration! The only problem is, 9 months isn't soon enough for me!!!!!

I'm sorry to hear about Drew. Better to end it sooner rather than later, though, if things weren't meant to be. Congrats on the new expected arrival. Be glad they're not having an elephant...you'd have to wait 2 yrs. Besides, an elephant isn't all that cuddly.

Sorry things didn't work out with Drew, but if that's the way it was meant to be, it's just as well (like Penny said).

I bet your parents are thrilled about the baby-to-be; congratulations to everyone.

Nine months gives you plenty of time to get down to a short list of names to dictate to them LOL.
I know you've been working on it, so don't even try to deny it.
Poor Drew, if only he would learn from his mistakes, but then again, he IS only a man...

Im so sorry doll. Im sure this can't be easy on you, but i've always been a firm believer that men are like tissues. Once you are done with the snotty one you can just grab a new clean one. How thrilling though about your good news. Now you can be the cool aunty who always has gum! Love you heaps.....Kiki

HOLY CRAP !! I don't come in here for a few days and look at this mess ! I can't leave none of you youngsters alone for a minute can I? Things go from this wonderful music to this attempted murder mystery where a man gets a well deserved flogging with a wooden spoon but at least you only threw it at him (he would probably been still picking splinters outta his butt if something worse would have happened), to the next thing this other guy knows he's singing "On the Road Again", to this other couple messin' around and now havin' babies !!!!! This whole blog has gone ape shit but at least it all came out as a happy ending....(snork)...I love happy endings cause they always make me cry.

Anyway I can see Frisky getting jealous when you father starts spending more time with the new baby. Poor Frisky.

Ok listen up now...I'm in here so ya'll watch what you are doin' from here on out or else.

A snotty tissue?...had me looking in the mirror to see if I had any boogers on my face.

Alright it's 3:30 in the morning so I'm going back to bed now that everything is back to normal and we are all a happy bunch of folks once again.

Oh yeah by the way..I guess what my wife said would have been enough but I get out of hand more than she does.

I am still trying to get my breath back after reading Curtis' comment.
We cant clump them all into the same category, Curtis prooves that there are some actual lace hankies left. They may get mussed up but always come out clean in the wash, and are there for the duration.
Big congrats on the upcoming baby. Being an aunty is so cool. You can spoil them and then ship them home to Mom to do the dirty work.

Penny said...

You have plenty of time to prepare for impending auntyhood - time to get blogging. We're waiting...

As for Drew...there are still plenty of fish but I have to say, being single is very nice at times!
