I'm Back in the Saddle Again!

[alaskangal]

Just went to town. My mil was there with bil. They saw me but chose to ignore me after I waved. It really saddened me.

Here's what I emailed H about it.

Went to town with Kathy and Tom from church. Tom is old. Tom and I walked from Post Office to Safeway and then to Two Sister's Bakery, while we waited for Kathy and Lynn to bike the spit. I had to get stuff for writer's group.
Saw your mom and Tom at the gas station, but they didn't wave back so probably didn't see me.
Love, Col


I'm going to act as if my H's family doesn't hate me.

Hugs and prayers,
Akgal

I can't believe they didn't ask me if I needed a ride, though. I was on foot and had groceries with me.

Things that make you go...hmmmm.

Hi Colleen,

Don't dwell on it, it will only bring you down. They aren't worth it.

[alaskangal]

You are right. I have twenty or thirty folks coming over for writers' group in half an hour....I have better things to think about than them.

Thanks, Pam!

Have fun this evening!!!

Any ideas on how to handle in-laws that are ignoring you?

[alaskangal]

Kill them with kindness? Ignore them, too?

[alaskangal]

I am just going to take this one day at a time. If they choose to ignore me, that's fine. I will pray for them.

Now I am at peace with the whole situation.

Hugs, and prayers,
Akgal

Of course pray for them. Next time I think I would pointed walk up ( kind of trap them) and say hi! how you doing ,etc.

Hey there.

How did the group go? That sounds like fun.

Clam diggin this weekend huh? I have never had the pleasure but sure would like to some time.

Regarding the inlaws - I would pray for them. But I would also approach them and say that I know this is awkward for you and me, but we are family and I know that I would and think that (H) would appreciate it if we could just get along. Or something like that.

If that doesn't get them, then it is their loss.

You sound great! Have a fun weekend!
