"Congrats to Meghan and Jim on the opening of their store and of course on the pregnancy!
I brought up the voicemail to Vicki because she could at least say "thank you" to Shannon and they could move on. After all, Shannon did reach out to see how she was doing and tell her she didn't understand the severity of the accident. I think it was a big step for Shannon to approach Vicki and to tell her she was sorry. It seemed like Vicki clearly wanted to hold on to the fact Shannon didn't see her at the hospital. Almost like she had the upper hand now.
Shannon is not the type of person to just sit back. I told her I tried to get Vicki to talk to her but she said "no". So, Shannon tried one more time. Vicki was not warm and accepting even though Shannon spoke to her nicely. Then Vicki calls her a liar. I knew that wasn't going to go over too well. Shannon is an open book. I know that for sure. I found it very disturbing when Vicki said, "I have secrets about Shannon and David that Shannon told me in confidence. I keep it in a box with a pad lock, and the key hidden. I might reveal the secret that she doesn't want anyone to know." Oh s***, that's down right low!
When things started to get heated I said it's time to move on. Meaning making a scene in Meghan's store is not going to resolve anything. Shopping with Vicki was a s*** show. First, Vicki's shoe gets stuck in a crack then my nipple cover falls off and hits the ground.
When Vicki told me she was dating a police officer I was so happy she had found someone. She constantly says she doesn't want to bring guys around us because of what happened with Brooks. It's like she thinks it's everyone's fault he lied about cancer and us girls are to blame. It's not our fault she was dating a jerk! The funny thing is she has involved herself in everyone's relationship in the past. But acts like a victim. After Brooks it's been a running joke with me and Briana that we will run a background check on the next guy that comes into her life. No, I would never actually do that, but Briana might?
I've know Vicki long enough to know she has a habit of telling people she has dirt on them and if they don't stop pushing her buttons she will expose it. She did it to Meghan last year and to me the year before. It's a very juvenile way of fighting. Clearly she has told Kelly about it because she had Kelly tell me and Heather hoping it would get back to Shannon, but I didn't say anything because I knew it was nonsense and Vicki's way of threatening Shannon. Bottom line, Vicki is a bully. To say that she has a secret about Shannon that would hurt her family is just absolutely disgusting. Her family has gone through enough hurt. Leave them alone, Vicki. Heather said it best: "When you have a secret, you don't say anything about it. Vicki going around telling everyone is more of a threat than anything." I've seen her do this so many times. Congrats to Heather and Terry on their new book!
Shannon told me before the party that she was going to put her issues with Vicki in the past and treat her like nothing was wrong. I was happy to see Shannon come in and joke around with Vicki. Shannon was super cool about the whole situation.
So we are going to Ireland! This is bitter sweet to me because I've always wanted to go to Ireland but I have four weeks until my competition. See you in Ireland."
