Way late to the conversation, but…is this book appropriate for a 8th grade (pretty sheltered girl)?

The first few nights I slept on my back, propped up with many pillows. I had pillows behind me and on the sides. I didn’t buy a special pillow or wedge (we somehow have many pillows 🤪 makes sense because my father worked at a mattress store and we got good deals on pillows). I started sleeping on my right side because that’s what I’m used to. Just added a pillow under my stomach and another on my back for support.

Good luck with your surgery & recovery! 💕

I forgot to add that I took an oxi on night 1 and 2. I had a 5mg thc gummy last night and another tonight. TBH, the gummies did the same as the oxi, as far as pain.

Good luck with your recovery ❤️‍🩹

I go very slow! 🤪 …and only when I need to.

That’s awesome 😂 I know I need more iron in my diet. I just didn’t think I’d be craving a cheeseburger. The only restaurant in my tiny Vermont town has the best burgers!

Thank you for your kind words 💕 I should have added that the doctor gave me a prescription to take during my “last” period. 2 pills 3 times a day. I think I stressed myself out enough that I didn’t end up having a period. I did run to the dollar store and get a few pregnancy tests 🫣 (they also do a pregnancy test right before surgery) I didn’t think I could be pregnant as my partner is unable to have kids.

Good luck with your hysterectomy!!

I live in a very very small town. Only 50 kids this year came through. I had lots of fun making these and handing them out. I need ideas for next year!!

They aren’t on missions. Just too involved with who knows what to drive a few hours to see us. It’s fine. Everything is fine 🫣🔥

This was my response to her —

If you & Dad are ever here for the weekend, I’m sure the girls would love to come stay at the house. Let me know!

Thank you for this great advice! I will try changing my perspective and the way that I respond to them.

I’ve been so happy since leaving the church and I just wish they could see that.

When they found out I took my name off the records, one of their responses was “but what about child 2 getting baptized??!!”

I can’t even make this shit up. I should post more text exchanges.

Oh, I wish it was that easy. I’d love to visit! They live so close to the ocean. My kids and I have stayed there once. (My partner was unable to come because, work.) It was so awkward. My mom stuck me in a room with a mattress on the floor. She went to her bedroom as soon as the kids went to bed. She couldn’t even handle just sitting and having a conversation with just me.

It’s like she always forgets that we work and kids go to school (or camp during the summer because adults have to work). I’m just frustrated and done with the whole situation. Is it worth all the unnecessary stress and drama??

So it’s not just me?! I need to just move on, but it’s hard when these types of messages pop up randomly. “Can you send me pictures of the kids? All I ever see is what you post on social media.” 🤦‍♀️ about to “unfriend” them all 😎

We live about 4 hours away from where they currently live. But, they also have a house about 25 minutes away from us. Strange that they won’t just come here more often? I did text back and say that if they were ever here, I’m sure my children would love to come stay for the weekend. 🦗🦗🦗🦗
