the mlc files--I want to believe

~yet another thread~

My last thread hasn't yet locked, but I'm thinking any time now so I'm starting another.

Not much is new. Unfortunately it doesn't take much to throw me in a tailspin. Today it was D12 going to spend the night with H--those are still difficult for me. He's been in touch with family. There's a 50th Anniversary celebration this weekend for his aunt and uncle (I love these guys), he wants to take D. And Thanksgiving plans are getting ironed out; H's out-of-town brother and sil are having the whole family over. H has to work that day, so he won't be going. But the brother's family asked if D could drive over with grandma and grandpa and ride back with the other aunt and uncle so she can be there with the family. Clearly I'm not invited. I didn't have any firm plans, certainly didn't plan to be with them--but it still burns when I find out what's happening. I've been invited, with D, to some friends' house, but I haven't yet confirmed, and I had anticipated just having a quiet holiday with the 2 of us. Now I hate to keep her from a fun time with her cousins. But I don't want to spend this holiday alone---it will be hard enough without that. I don't have to decide yet.

Is there any end to this? Just when I think I've gotten past the worst of it, along comes another sneak attack.
