I survived!

Dec 03, 2012 21:39

O. M. G. I survived the evil relative. She was pretty well behaved, I didn't feel offended in my own house, and I got to leave after an hour and a half. It was really about as perfect as it gets. Plus, dh and the kids were very glad to see her. So, that was a good thing to do.  And it got me out of cooking a real dinner, so it worked out fine.  ( Read more... )

Glad to hear your visit was not too bad. :)

Thanks! Yeah, it was really not so bad. I don't think she said anything offensive and she and her friend gushed over my quilts, so it worked out ok. ♥ Thanks for thinking of me.

By the way, how goes the story? The NC17 one? Cause I want it.. :D

I only got home about 20 mins. ago, so nothing new yet. (But DD should be going to bed very soon...and then I'll go to town on it! ;) )

I'm glad your aunt in law behaved. My in laws were *famous* for calling us freaking last minute and saying, "Oh, we'll see you tomorrow..." like we had NO lives and could just accommodate them whenever. When I finally put my foot down one time when we actually HAD alternate plans (and wouldn't change them for THEM), we had a rift that literally lasted years.

(Of course, with Don gone now, I am apparently my MILs new bestie...because no one else can understand her pain except me, apparently. Oh, well... I think my husband would like me keeping tabs on his mom anyway. She's not so bad if I don't have to deal with my FIL. He's a real piece of work!)

Woot! Run with it bb. Let me know if you want help with it. I'm here for you.

Me too! God, I was dreading it. Luckily I had the escape hatch handy and it was so helpful.

I'm glad you feel like your hubby would approve of your relationship with MIL at this point though. That must make you feel good too.

Glad you survived! I've been thinking about your dilemma all night.

I made my goal for the day and hopefully should finish tomorrow, I'm up to 35k total now!

Have a lovely evening, my friend!

:D

Aw, you guys are all so sweet. I really appreciate it. I'm sure that's what did it!

Oooh, yay! *bites nails* Mine goes up on Wed. I'm nervous about the reception it's going to get.

Thanks! Having my medicinal liqueur now:) ♥

Medicinal, eh? *raises an eyebrow*

I'm having dinner. Yeah, I know, I keep forgetting to eat while I write.

\o/ Wednesday!

I'm so wired, I need something to take me down a notch. :D

Er, ok. Whatever works, bb. Work it.

Wednesday? Oh god, for a brief blissful moment I had forgotten about Wednesday. *resumes biting fingernail* I'm probably not supposed to be talking about when I'm posting, but I'm hoping that it's hidden here and no one else will be paying attention.

You made it through! I was humming the Rocky theme song all morning for you - obviously that's what helped. :D

Woot! I'm sure that was it. Excellent. Thanks for thinking of me with such a powerful song too (can I admit to you now that I've never seen Rocky?) Thanks for the help!!! <3 <3 <3

I'm not sure we can be friends anymore. I'll have to think about it.

*cough* Except I hooked you up with an awesome porn story. You can't deny that, right?:D

I'm glad it was bearable. And that your husband and the girls were happy about it show that you did the right thing in the end. So *yay* you for swallowing your pride. And a good thing she behaved:)

Thanks. It wasn't even a matter of swallowing pride, but just doing what needed to be done.

*glomps you* Damn it's good to see you. Where have you been? Working hard?

Yeah. I think it's midnight or something for you now. I'm plowing through my list though. It's good.
