Weekend update:
Saturday was a big family party at our house. The day went fine. We worked together to get everything ready, during the party everything ran smoothly, and we cleaned up afterwards. Sunday after Mass we went to my parents house to celebrate my grandmother's 94th birthday. Again, not a bad day, we got along fine. One thing about all this, we never fight. My grandmother is losing her memory, so she asks questions like how old am I? Where do I live? etc. Sunday she was asking us if she had children and grandchildren, which was a little sad. We went around the room reminding her who we all are. When we got to W, she said "You remember me, I am Orich's wife." It was weird hearing her say that, but pleasant.
So, we go home, played with the boys for a while, and just before we put them to bed, she tells me she is going to another movie meeting after the boys are in bed. She had told me she didn't think she was going to be involved in this anymore.
We put the kids to bed, and my cell phone rang. I was in the bedroom, and she calls out that my phone is ringing. The name showed up on the screen, and she saw it. Two things happened. FIrst of all, she said "why is there a picture of a woman on the phone?" My wallpaper had always been a picture of her. Now it is a picture of Kate Winslet (who, BTW, is dreamy!) and then she said, "Why is the deacon from our church calling you?". The deacon found me crying in church some months ago, and when I told him what was going on, he began to get involved with me. I didn't want her to know, because he is a friend of both of us. He called because he knew that she usually went out on Sunday nights, he just called a little too early. So, now she knows that he knows. She didn't say anything after I told her that.
And then, she left for her movie meeting, and I watched Ice Road Truckers, and went to bed.
That was my weekend, I reflected a bit on the current state of things, and realize that I need to do some more GALing, and maybe a few more 180's.
