Morning Sunshine! I'm playing hide and seek with Tomato. LOL. That man is sooo funny.
I'm glad you are enjoying your coffee and peace and quiet. H at work, S will be at karate then bowling, so I too am looking forward to a nice quiet day. Put some pics up in the alt if you want to look. Still have to transfer the ones of Jon Grueden. Will do that later on.
H- (I like that better than Tracy and you wear it well), it will be a long time, if ever for you to be comfortable around that W again (it is easier to be mad at the W than H but I think you know that.) My step father was actually my father's business partner. In the end, he stole my mother, us, and left my father holding the financial bad from the failed biz. SF filed bankruptcy, and my dad did not. SF was always really good to us, and I will never know the true dynamics of parents R or anything like that. But I have hated SF since he moved in. It was only after S was born, and I saw how much he loved S who is not his true grandchild, before I could get past my anger and see how much he had actually loved us and the good in the man. We are still not super close, but I now I appreciate the life he did give to us, and I look at him as a person and not a monster. I have had to admit to myself that I do love him. He is my parent (wierd, he and my mom are my parents and dad and his wife are my Dad and his wife). Don't worry about the kids. You don't know how much they even really know and the A is over now anyway.
If you focus on the past, you ruin the future. You can only live for today.
