Things have been nut bags again and I really put the kids down, entirely, for the first time about an hour ago and Seamus is still making noises from his swing but he doesn't seem upset. Just chatty

I left his wanting to see anyone up to him and 8 years later he's obviously jumped at that chance. Wait, no he hasn't. So I'm not worried about him showing up. That's a non-issue. And Mike has a step-dad who is an awesome Grandpa. Mike just likes to pick at me sometimes about how I don't have a Grandpa for the kids and like I said he made a joke about taking a road trip and it finally became, wait, are you serious? Because I don't know if I want to see my Dad.
I mean, if he wanted to meet my Dad enough to drive to him I might be up for it. The crux of the situation is my Dad, technically, is not a bad guy. He wouldn't kick a puppy or punch you in the nose. He'd make quiet, sarcastic jokes and want to drink coffee. But as for why the hell he won't make the effort to see his family? No clue. It's probably some shitty "Well it'd make me feel awkward or no one wants me around" Eeyore bullshit. Why that man couldn't pull himself up by his bootstraps was beyond me. What's more infuriating is there is so much of him in my brother and I that make us who we are and he just doesn't want to be around.
So it's difficult because I hate him because he won't come around, not because he's mean. If he was mean it'd be so much easier.
you have every right to feel that way. maybe if you happen to be in the area..... as in dont make going to see him the sole purpose of the trip, so if it ends up going shitty its not a shitty trip. just a eh.. go figure and then you and mike and the babies go chill out wherever it is. you know what i mean?
