Well dinner last night went really well. I was very nervous all day. I had a pit in my stomach and my heart was racing just thinking about the fact that it was going to end up being an ugly confrontation. I was going over scenarios in my head, trying to convince myself how to stay calm and collected when that is not in my nature to do so.
It was all for naught. They were pleasant, we were pleasant (at least I hope we were). The talk turned to the wedding and I think when they realized that this isn't the most extravagant wedding there is and the only thing we expected of them were what was traditionally the grooms family responsibility and the rest was just participation, all was good. All in all it was a nice dinner.
I sincerely hope that is the last bit of wedding drama for this event. Roger is having surgery next week on his hip. He has been in a lot of pain since December and they have finally found the cause. A sports hernia. We are very relieved because he has a history of stress fractures in the same areas and we afraid that was what happened again. The hernia appears to be fixable and recovery is only supposed to be a week or so. It will be so nice to see him not in pain for a change and I am so looking forward to watching him dance with her little girl at her wedding.

- Roger and I started our family at age 20. We had four great daughters. Now they are having babies of their own. So far the count is 2 boys and 2 girls. Two of the mom's are single mom's and they both work retail. Those 3 spend a LOT of time at our house. We are enjoying the second time around a lot more. I guess cause I have figured out that grandchildren are your revenge on your kids. You can feed them a 1 pound bag of M & M's at 9:00 p.m. and send them home. You sleep fine that night. It's great!
