Dad

I am having some mixed feelings about going to see my dad tonight. I know that I promised to go over there everyother Monday, but I don't know if my emotions can take it today. I don't know which dad I am going to get. I got yelled at yesterday because I sent him a text response when he wanted a phone call. Did I know that? No I did not. He said

Grief is a weird thing. No one reacts to loss in quite the same way or goes through the stages on the same timetable. Be easy with him and ask him to be easy with you. And tell him you love him. A lot. And if he doesn't say it back, ask him to. That's the best advice I can think of right now. I love you. **hugs**

Honey, please don't let your dad or anyone else try to tell you how to mourn. I know he's having a rough time but he can't be allowed to rule your life in this way. But Leah has great advice; telling someone you love them always helps. It's not easy for either of you.

And use your LJ to gripe, bitch and moan just as much as you want. It's YOUR journal; feel free to use it any way that helps you.

*hugs*

Thank you for all of the advice. I actually founf out last night that I am like my mother in this instance. She didn't talk about things either. She didn't "hold it in" but she didn't dwell on the matter either. Dad rold me that last night. He also told me that he was sorry for acting like a jerk on Sunday. So I think we are better now!
