Takin them as they come...

Thanks Jenny. I don't know why it hit me so hard. It's like the reverse of when you first start dating and every month seems special. Now they just make me sad. Another month lost.

I had a good weekend in spite of it though. Friday night I went to a Christmas play. Saturday I spent the day in Chicago. Sunday I learned to snowboard, or maybe I should say that I learned how not to snowboard. My arms are sore today from catching myself as I fell. Next time I'll do better though.

Friday night at the play was a bit awkward. I was there with my family and we were sitting behind some people that we know. They decided that they wanted to sit in the middle instead of where we were at so they moved. This left some open seats in front of us. A few minutes later my W's aunt (from another state) sits down. I didn't even realize it was her at first. I was thinking that it was really weird. She didn't recognize me or at least she didn't seem to. Then my W's dad, my FIL, sat down with her! He and my parents have never got along. He said an awkward hello and then the play started. Afterwards he went to talk with someone as soon as the lights came on. I waited around for a while since I wanted to at least say a better hello. He never came back though. I understand. I mean what's he really going to say? Sorry that my daughters wacky and left you. Anyways... Who says God can't be ironic...
