I am just ticked tonight. I found out today while my sister was on the phone with my brother that my eldest sister is having her first baby.
Apparently SHE TOLD EVERYONE ELSE BACK IN JULY.
According to my sister, Eldest told "everyone" while hiking on a trail that I know I did not get to hike on with everyone when they were visiting. >___>
Now I come from a big family, and I'm the middle child, which i don't mind, and I love having a big family, but this tendency for someone to always be out of the loop has gone on long enough. It wasn't so bad when people weren't informed that out of town siblings were visiting and would actually be here any minute, but a WHOLE BABY?
According to Mum it was kept quiet because my Eldest sister's step-son was not suppose to know just then, but we spent LATE nights talking, you'd think people would remember to tell me while the step-son was asleep. OR maybe the question of names would have come up or SOMETHING.
Or maybe a facebook message?
I am probably taking this way harder than I should, but I have faithfully sewn a toy dragon for all my nephews as they came into the family since the first. I would have expected to be asked to make one for this newcomer to our family. Not knowing all this time, I'm sitting here wondering if my bad memory recall has returned and I just forgot, or if I had my sleeping meds and they stupidly told me then since my meds make me forget everything that happened from after I took them to when I first wake up in the night(Meds do not work great but I at least fall back to sleep each time I wake, rather than being awake all night).
IS it just me because I am so incompetent at remembering important thing? Or was I really left out of the loop? Either way I feel angry and hurt
