Christmas Eve and Christmas day went relatively well. On Christmas eve we went to her mothers place to frost cookies. Most of her family was there and I think I did a great job being up beat, and putting my best side forward. She was pretty distant and at times I felt almost pissed off. But I didn't let it dissuade my efforts at all. I kept a positive focus, and used it as a good opertunity to practice not letting her mood affect me.
Christmas Day was a bit better again put my best foot forward. Her mom, step dad, and grand parents came over for brunch (family tradition). All went well, her grandmother pulled us both in close, while saying good bye, and told us she wanted to do this again next year. The W said we will see.... I know no expectations. All in all a great opportunity to both be patient, and lower my expectations. How am I doing?
