In the past few years it has been the norm for the family to all meet up at BIL & SIL for dinner on new years day but last year for obvious reasons W opted out and now she's doing the same this year. This is all part of her avoiding anyone who knows the details of out recent history. I told her earlier in the week that she should go round to see BIL & SIL and not to avoid them but she said no way.
Anyway we had a row cos I had txt'ed SIL to see what time dinner was and SIL phoned back but ended up talking to W who wasn't too happy. W shouted at me and wanted to know why I had txt'ed SIL, when I told her I can tx't who I want (not the best reply from me)W made and interesting comment where she said "wait til I start txting people again" ( I sensed a veiled threat there). Anyway all that is water under the bridge, W not talking to me and we heading to the new year, I'm not in the mood to kiss ass and make the piece
She really is [censored] hard work, who said the road a head leads to happiness.
