Barbecue with the mother-in-law today...we're an odd family. My husband is only recently living with our daughter and myself again..a long trek back home (all the way across the country). His sister was there too, and she and I have always been very close, even when he and I weren't. Good food, though, and getting ready for the new week. Our daughter started second grade this year; how the hell did that happen? I had to turn down an invite to go dumpster diving tonight because I have to work early tomorrow.
And yet, I'm happy. He and I are planning a future, with, I think, a better idea of what we need to do to make each other and ourselves happy. A good start.

But I thought kids were supposed to stay all cute and stumbly until one morning you woke up and they were surly teenagers and stumbly for completely different reasons!
