With all due respect, SG, I know this is upsetting you and you need to talk about it, but I sorta feel that as she's a minor and you have previously given out personal details and posted many pics on here including your nephew, you might want to limit your discussion on the ins and out of this situation to preserve her privacy.

Aw Dana, I'd be beside myself if that was Diz.
Hope he's over it.

I now have guilt to add to the former upset.
Just been downstairs and Mum has been crying. "That's my first great-grandchild." I know she really believes that. And my sister will too. I shouldn't be so quick to judge people with different beliefs than my own. They really are hurting.

Although Mum did say immediately afterwards, "I can't believe she's done this...." So I wasn't too far off the mark.

But no. I feel rotten for trying to be all rational when they are battling their faith in trying to see a termination as the lesser of two evils - and barely getting by.

Monster, I appreciate the thought but I think the chance of anyone finding this and putting all the elements together are so low that it's not an issue. Since all this started I have not mentioned her by name, even where I have in the past it's usually a contraction of her name. Her surname is not on here (it's not the same as mine or my parents'). And there is almost nothing to link old photos with this news, apart from someone going through everything I have posted.

Some will never stop wondering who that could have been. There is no consoling those who have that belief from those that don't.

Fair enough, SG, glad you have considered it.

Update: Mr P. is feeling much better and is back to his happy go lucky self.

My hair. I really really really hate it. I'm trying to grow it long for my sis's wedding, but its just so ugly. It seems too short to get cut in a cute bob like i want, and it curls stupidly outward. It looks like a bad man's 80's haircut or something. This is it just blow dried out of the shower, which I don't want to, neither do I really know how to do anything else to it. I've tried straightening it, but that is not really any better. Trying to curl it under is too much work, and still looks like a bad 80's haircut. I think I'm gonna go to my favorite place and just ask 'em if they can try to cut it into something cute, but keep as much length as possible. If I really don't like it, I can always go get a pixie cut 2weeks before the wedding. I just feel so lost with hair though.

FOR CHRIST'S SAKE LEAVE YOUR FUCKING HAIR ALONE. YOU ARE ADORABLE.

A small smile would definitely not kill you.*




*Your results may vary. IF you die from smiling I will not be held responsible.

Get a Mohawk and Dye it Purple with Blue undertones !!
You'll be the Talk of the family for Years to come !!!

Really Zip? Are you sure blue undertones are right for her complexion? I was thinking mauve.

I cannot, and do not want to, outdo my drug/drunkie cousin with 3 kids she sloughs off on her mom.

Bullshit. BOTH of you were thinking
"Why is the camera pointed up so high?"

MTP: Your present hair is a workable length. Just go to a very good hairstylist. ;)

I like your hair

I don't think it's too short to cut into a bob, MTP. That bit curling under your left ear seems to be right about the right length, you just need to cut the back layers a bit so it's all one length. How long before your sister's wedding?

Thanks for the encouragement, I'm just lost when it comes to hair.
Her wedding is March 13. She'd be OK if I went back to a pixie cut, I just thought it would be nice to have longer hair for it. The back seems way longer than the sides. The back is down to my shoulders, but the sides are still slightly above my chin. I think I just need to stop agonizing over it and go get it cut. See how it turns out.
