Total Eclipse by Dan Band

Thank you Arsene for reminding me. You're right. It is important to put away old resentment and work on today.

We had another good day. Went shopping with MIL. Funny thing. When we picked her up she got in the car and H went into her place to get something. She said,

"Um, Vero, I was thinking of calling you last night and telling you I wasn't coming because I think you guys wanted to do something as a family and I was feeling like awkward about it."

She obviously didn't call. She must've still felt weird but not too weird where she would get off the car or tell us she changed her mind. So I think she just wanted me to make her feel comfortable. And I did. Sort of...

"Don't worry about it. I was hoping we would do a family outing and H suggested we go hiking so I was a bit disappointed when he suggested we go shopping instead. So his invite to you wasn't the problem."

I'm not going to stay quiet about things anymore. Nor am I going to be too blunt and forward. I struggled finding a balance and I think what I told her was just that. Balanced.

I'm a work in progress.

Also, H dropped us off after and I cried. I missed him and I hate that he doesn't live with us. I know, I know, wah wah wah, cut it out with the self pity party. So I did.

I told myself. This will pass. And it did. Thank God!
