Tomorrow my brother and sil are having a birthday party for my neice and my nephew. My neice was born earlier in the month but my nephew's real birthday was in February but he wanted a pool party so they waited until now to have his birthday.

They are having the party at an outdoor public pool, the kind the city own but you can rent. Because of the cost they are "sharing" the pool and the party with 4 other families and their children are having parties at the same time. I do not know for sure but I am positive that at least one or two of the other kids are relatives of my sil. Her family is rude and nasty and very against big families and as pregnant as I am right now I would just love an excuse to physically clobber a few of them for the rude things they have said and done to us and especially my children in the past. UGH!!

Anyway, the place will have no shade and no airconditioning for sure. It has been 103-107 here all week. The party is from like 7-10 and it is still going to be high 90's to a 100 even at that time of day. I wasn't going to go. I was just going to send gifts but the kids remembered last night and now it is a mess.

Oh wait, my family will probably be there also and right now I am avoiding my mother in all forms possible. Seeing here would greatly upset me and she is sure to make a huge scene because that is what she does- - the woman has no shame or manners.

I thought about sending everyone except me and I would just stay home but I would sit here and worry about the kids and what was going on at the party (one of my weird problems!) I could go but I am sure the heat and stress would kill me. We could go, make a quick apperance and leave but I am sure the younger kids would throw a huge fit. AND, I am still having contractions and don't want to be very far from home or stressed out at this point although I don't see that there is anything I can do about being stressed out over this at this point.

I keep thinking I am missing something so I am asking you guys to toss me your best ideas and insights and if you need any more info ask and I will do my best to answer.

Thanks,
Christine
