My Trip of a Lifetime

My husband, Patrick, works at a restaurant called Fero. It's in The Pizitz Food Hall in downtown Birmingham. Pizitz started out as a department store, which was eventually bought out by McRaes, followed by Belk (I believe). This old historic building has been redone into a Food Hall, shopping, and apartments/condos. Very exciting!!! Well, one of the restaurants, called Fero, is doing a family and friends event this evening. I'm planning on going, even tho I just had to call in to go to it. Well, why did you have to call in for, Erin??! Reason is, is because.his family lives in the Huntsville/Madison area, which is a 90 minute to 2 hour drive. Plus they aren't familiar with downtown Birmingham at all!!! So it's understandable if they can't make it. My family, however, consists of my mom, sister, brother-in-law, and neice...and perhaps his family as well. I already know that my family won't be there...even though they LIVE here in Birmingham as well. Which ma

Why do I have to stop coming in at noon just because someone else missed you off??! Why do I have to come in at 2 again for her missing you off??! Why take it out on EVERYONE else??! It's not everyone else's fault for what seems like ONE PERSON taking advantage of you??! I had freaking PERMISSION to come in at noon!!! PERMISSION!!! Now you're saying that, inc luding myself, HAVE to workout normally scheduled time. I wouldn't have minded if you had just come to each of us and asked if we could start working what we are scheduled. Also, does this mean that the ladies who refuse to work certain days, i.e. Friday's and Sunday's , have to work those days if they are scheduled in the system to work??? Based on your email, the answer is a resounding yes. Just so you know, if this is indeed the case, you are about to lose at minimum 2 to 3 additional people, if not more . I know of 3 people who do not work on Sunday's. It's not going to be pretty

So, i have not so little secret that i need to share. I.miscarried 7 years ago. It will be 7 years in July. I've never told anyone but my 3 best friends. My own family doesn't know!!! Why do they not know?? Because I am embarrassed by this fact. The father doesn't, or I don't believe he does, know. So, here I am, admitting that, yes, I have been pregnant at some point in time in my life. That's one reason why i don't want to have any other children. I'm terrified that I'll miscarry, again. I'm not sure if I could have told the father. His name is Bryan. Why?? I don't really know. Be deserves to know. It's been 7 years since the miscarriage. My child would have been around 6 years old this year. I've always pushed it out of my mind. I shouldn't, but I do. Please, ladies, if you miscarried, it's not your fault. Also, remember, that you aren't the only one who lost a child. You're significant other also lost a child. Pl
