You and TCG have perfectly valid things to be stressing about right now. A mother should purposefully recuse herself from that list.
But that would mean it was about us. It's never about us.
Speaking about stress. Can I stress out about one more thing? I have an appointment with a new OBGYN tomorrow to talk about the possibility of getting pregnant sometime in the near future and I am (hopefully irrationally) stressed that the doctor will say something along the lines of "how dare you consider getting pregnant?"
Thankfully, he lives in Indiana, so there's (hopefully) a physical limit to how much he can do.

Now we just need a way to cut off his internet and phone.
Never one around when you need it.

Ugh sj, sorry about MiL stress. I agree with the advice to just develop a thick skin if possible.
And Sean, I recommend just ignoring the ex-friend entirely if you can.
That's pretty much my plan. My big fear right now is that before I shut off communication completely, he threatened to start contacting *everyone* I know, and then started making good on the threat. I don't know how to ignore this spreading to everybody else I know, and I don't have any room to compensate for the kind of damage he might be able to do by doing that.
Hopefully the vast majority of the people he contacts are smart enough to go "Who the hell is this loon?" and not take him seriously.
