I'm a little confused today, it was my W's Great Grandma's 90th Birthday party, I love the old girl dearly, but felt it best not for me to go and cause any tension. I was terribly pissed off that I'm losing access to people like G-Grandma I've known for half my life, but realize this is going to be par for the course for a while. I did what I usually do, hopped on my bike and did 5 miles and hit Starbucks, my W picked up the kids while I was gone and dropped them back off this evening.
When they came back my D19 came in with a box of Halloween candy and big container of coffee and said it was "From Mom". I did the quizzical "what this for" palms up gesture and D19 said "Mom's confusing isn't she" and smiled. Just when I get used to the idea she's gone, she does something thoughtful and more like her old self than the alien I've been dealing with since July
