Saturay: up, talked to my mom on the phone, drank coffee, wen tto the
ICU waiting room & hung out with Pat, Sonya, [Aunt L] & [Uncle B]. Chuy's on
183 for dinner, then I went to Jinxs party & Sweetie went to work on
a VW with friends. Mom had called Cora & then [Aunt L], and Pat & Sonya
volunteered to take one of the ferrets. Mom told [Aunt L] & [Aunt L] told me
that [X's youngest son] was with Xs uncle david, the other two kids were with
C, and [J x's middle son] was upset about finding homes for his animals &
J [x's daughter] was in total denial & also had possibly been involved in the
drug business. :(
So, Jinx's party was nice. Swam. Drank Champagne & chambord.
Watched people playing DDR ((boring) listened to Jinx bitching
about some old romance. bla bla. Visited with [Sineater] just a bit. [Skye_ds]
cornered me outside and we sat by the pool and 'talked' while the
party went on inside. But...it was not unpleasant. I needed a non-
drama evening
Sunday, woke up, talked to my mom on the phone, drank coffee. Called
C, she was in the middle of cooking for the kids (lunch, I guess?)
I sai I had a home for 1 ferret if she needed it but that's all I
could do. [Sineater] an [Skye_ds] and [Sonar0m] showed up around 1:15 and we went
to Las Manitas & then went to Pecan ST. festival. Hot & sunny. Some
nice stuff. Not a real good 'visit', everyone walked behind me.
(granted, it was crowded, too crowded in spots to do more than walk
single file) I didn't feel very involved. We got back to the house
aroun 5:30, I encouraged them to go and make nice if they were going
to go to [Sonar0m]' relative's 2nd bday (cousin? dunno) I think I said
something to the effect that a child's birthday was not an
appropriate setting for any kind of 'showdown' with [Sonar0m]' mom. And
then I put my foot in it by saying something about how [Skye_ds] had
made big trouble with [sineater's extended fam] at the beginning of her
relationship with [Sineater] and then had to backtrack & make nice for
years before they stopped believing that she was the wicked witch of
the west, and did she really want to go through something like that
again? [Skye_ds] looked at [Sineater] and said "Is she talking about all the
times your family attacked me and I left?"--so obviously she doesn't
remember "Being with [Sineater] has alientated me from my family so now I
am going to alientate him from his" or the phone call up to
Greencastle where she screeched and cried and told [stepdad G/Sineater's dad] and Mom
about 'the abortion' and whatnot.
What ever. Then we made nice some more, and they finally left a bit
after 6. Probably too late to make the kids bday, so they were just
going back to Rockdale. Probably another lovely situation where she's
going to work herself into a foaming fit by the time she gets home &
let me know what a terrible person she thinks I am. Oh well.
