((((Amy)))) You have been handling the situation with your Dad and Brit to the best of your ability....and that's plenty good enough!!! I'm sorry about how hard this had all been for you, I can only just imagine. Extra hugs and prayers!

Hey Lisa, Great attitude and fortitude!!! Your hula hoop is right where it needs to be!

SG, have a great trip!

Grateful!!! Another great reading about going with the flow! I need to just go with the flow myself right now...... It turns out, my future SD and SSIL are expecting their first child a few weeks after our wedding. So, there will be a baby shower, right? She wants to have it the weekend before the wedding (the wedding will be on Tuesday--long story). I have no problem with that because my fiance's family will be in town for the wedding and it will keep people from making two trips. Now here is the catch......she has asked her father if she can have it at our house, the weekend before our wedding, when friends and family are coming in, when there are a million things to do, when I will be moving stuff into the house still........I was floored.....it was like I do not exist at all.

My fiance, of course, said that it would no be possible. What I'm having a hard time with is that our wedding preparations and the fact that I would even have family and friends coming into town never occurred to her. I was really very hurt by her seeming lack of awareness that I might have other things to do and other people to attend to during that weekend.

So here is my question to you wise women (and men): How would this have made you feel? Am I overreacting to this situation? I mean, it is not going to happen at the house because it just can't.....so.....just wash it away with the flow, right? I mean, it's not going to happen so I just need to let this one go........?

Hugs, HG
