X just called and asked to talk to me. He got engaged over the weekend.
He had told the kids on Friday.
Explains some of the mood that I got from my son when he got back from his retreat.
I said that it wasn't really fair to them to saddle the kids with this info before telling me - he said he wouldn't have done it any other way, that it doesn't have anything to do with me.
I just said OK to the news.
What else is there to say?
He said it won't happen for a few years, at least, because of insurance. whatever....
My SIL's father-in-law died over the weekend from complications from a fall. MIL and FIL will be going to the funeral soon (think Monday?). I wonder if he told his parents. I am going to stay out of that.
I just thought of something......I never changed my last name, keeping my married name (since it is the same as my kids, I have had it longer than my maiden name, etc.). Not sure how I feel about having the same last name as...... wow.
