NTA your kid has a right to be a little upset at the sudden change with no warning just because it makes it harder to adjust to. But it also sounds like you hadn't really planned it out ahead of time anyway. I know what it's like to live isolated and far from your home, family, and support network. It sounds like you have done everything you could to make everyone else happy for a long time. The time to live your own life and find happiness sounds long over due. Live a happy life and try to stay in contact and communicate your need for this change to your daughter and hopefully she will adjust and like seeing you happier.
I would absolutely end the friendship over this. Not only is she making bad decisions for her baby, but to blow off multiple warnings from her friends AND give them a speech about not trying to control her AND THEN blame her friends for all of it afterwards? What a horrible "friend"!
We're having the same problem trying to get my son in to see a rheumatologist. We've spent an entire year going to different specialists trying to diagnose his issue and have had a long wait for most of them. It wasn't nearly this bad before hca took over and the pandemic made it even worse.
The only time I'm not completely offended by it is when pronounced like tamale, because I can accept that we are hot females. Otherwise they need to save it for the nature documentaries.
Honestly I think a lot of it has to do with how many crazy drivers are on the road. At least where I live the skill level of drivers has gone down and the aggressive recklessness has gone way up. I drive very safely, have never been in a wreck while driving, and it is still nerve wracking. My kids are pretty terrified by the idea of driving themselves. Add to that how expensive everything is, how little starter jobs pay, and how few places there are to go that don't cost a bunch of money, and I don't blame them for not being terribly excited about learning.
Kitty Love does amazing work. She is absolutely my favorite artist and I highly recommend her. My late husband had a bunch of work done by her and so have I. I won't go yo anyone else. Here's her website and instagram.
I found indica dominant strains to be easier in the early days. They tend to stay a bit more compact, were less likely to get nutrient burn if I f'd up, tolerated my grow room temps better, and frosted more heavily. Don't get me wrong, I adore some of my sativas, but I had a lot more success and enjoyment from them once I had more experience.
After years of patiently caring for orchids, waiting for blooms, I originally got into hoyas for the leaves. If I manage to get one to bloom here and there I just consider it a bonus.
I have 4 kids and 4 dogs. Having a puppy is a great test run/warmup for having kids. There are a lot of similarities. On the negative side, kids are harder because they take longer to mature and you can't just put them in a crate or leave them unsupervised when you need a break (for YEARS). But on the positive side, you discover a depth of love for your kids that is far beyond anything else in the world and makes it a bit easier to deal with the exhaustion and loss of bodily autonomy.
It looks like something my kid tried to build in minecraft.
She has such a cute little tiny pointed nose!😍

Gorgeous!😍
NTA. But, personally, I’d be cool with burning a friendship down to the ground over this.

Get/make a sign that says "Out to Lunch" and place it on your desk at lunch to remind people you're not available.
Very pretty foe.

Yes, but would that be consistent with amanita poisoning or something else?
She probably used something else the first time and switched to the deathcaps for the second attempt since the first was unsuccessful.
Collie×lab😉 collie for the long nose and somewhat upright ears and lab for the coat.

You look absolutely phenomenal in the second dress. It gives major Audrey Hepburn vibes.
JFC my eyes are bleeding!
She sure looks like a Mountain Feist. They are wonderful little dogs. What area did you get her from?
More guns than brain cells for sure.
😱😆😆😆

I've always been able to tell. The English ones always end the barks with "innit".
Rez dogs do too.
You won't regret it. I have over 100 hoyas and my Sunrise (one of the first) is still one of the most beautiful and easy to care for.
🥹 I am so in love with all my hoyas. While none have bloomed, I get just as excited about all the new growth

What the actual redneck f**k?!
Childbirth, both statistically and frim personal experience.

NTA.
She already decided she cares more about being vegan than being with him or she wouldn't have made this threat.
