Hey , I'm so sorry you r going thru this. Not seeing you on mother's day bc mother in law more important. Nonsense . Sounds like the gf is a chip off old block of mom. Sounds like sons gf is a well....brat. idk best advice other than talk to your soon about how you'd like to be with him more , or make plans to take walks, lunches , etc things that don't break the bank. Invite son and gf or if gf doesn't come just son. Start to do all you can to make effort to be with son away from this so he can make sure it's what he wants . You are his mother , you deserve to be held high

Re: Busy Wednesday
I'm sure my team hates me, but i am off again Friday and half day tomorrow to go back to Iowa to sit in on my first meeting as a board member for an investment fund run by students at my alma mater (I was a student analyst during my MBA). Luckily it's near my hometown, so i'm visiting my parents as well for a few days because my 97 year old gma fell and broke her hip and wrist and is recovering from surgery. She's moving to a rehab center for at least a few weeks starting ~Friday and my mom is a mess. Gma has sever dementia and it's heartbreaking - she's so confused and angry. I was planning to bring the boys for the weekend, but since my parents won't be able to babysit while i'm in meetings, they're staying home with H.
I also have 4 interviews today for that internal job promotion I applied for last month. I haven't "real" interviewed in ~7 years and i'm nervous even though i know all my interviewers. If i suck I still have to work with them, so it's a different kind of nervous than normal.
I'll try to catch up on what's been going on the last week but hope everyone has had good days!
Boo that J is still struggling.
SSDD. DH went to the office, so I'm alone at home. It's weird, LOL.
get better soon baby J @charlotte989875
Took a random day off like I wanted to. I’m exhausted just by doing the lawn. This old lady needs a nap before hitting the road!
We're in the start of baseball games, soccer practices next week and Chiquita and I are camping. I'm hopeful that the weather holds!
@charlotte989875, I'm sorry to hear J is still sick. I hope he gets better soon and you all can get the break you need.
I hung out with my neighbor friend yesterday. It's always a mellow, but fun evening at her house. She's the one who is out of town a lot because she works in tv/film, but currently has a break between assignments. She was unexpectedly presented with an awesome opportunity last week. She's an accomplished sailor and one of her sailing friends was hired to help move a fancy catamaran from LA to Costa Rica. The owner and his friend will be on the boat also, but they needed a fourth person and she got the job! She is really nervous, but super excited for the opportunity. I'm jealous!
Healing vibes for J @charlotte989875 . Great news for G and the interviews @Casadena !
Nice work if you can get it.
Her friend who was also hired and recommended her, owns a slip in the same marina.
