Mom and Dad's airline was hung up with severe weather
throughout their trip.

They had to be re-routed to a city in the opposite direction and so on.

Via phone they said that they would eventually land in one of the
cities near-ish to us and rent a car to drive to their hotel where they had reservations.

=-=
They expected to get into their hotel very late.
They said that they would be at our house today around 9:00 am
in their rental car.

=-=-=-

It's supposed to rain / thunder here today so we have to rethink the parks
where they usually spend their time here (Mom with Hubby and Dad with me)

I had VERY LITTLE SLEEP.

M

It sounds like you parents had a wonderful start to their visit

I certainly wouldn't expect them at 9am after all that BS and late arrival, nor would I be happy about that. I'm sure you're thrilled since you had no sleep

I hope that you can figure out some things to do together (separately) without too much hassle, and I hope this ends up being a nice visit...
I know that it will be stressful for you at times tho

Mari

I sure hope your visit with your parents is a good one.

Yesterday and then again just now I had a hassle logging into here.


I'm frustrated about so many many things.


M

Mom and dad are fine.


Hubby and Mom went walking.
Dad and I sat on the couch in the living room the whole day and talked.

==-=-=
After dinner and before they went back to their hotel using my car,
Dad said that he wants me to fly to their house to help him and his
museum team set up the parameters of a writing and research project
they are starting.

Last night at the dinner table I reminded Mom of something VERY mean she said to me when
Dad was out of the country and I was home from college for spring break.


=-=-
At first she thought it was a joke and laughed.
I said, "I remember. I was there."
Then she was horrified.

Later, after dinner, she apologized.
I told her, "It's a long time ago and I got over it."

=-=-=-


I woke up crying today because apparently I am NOT over it.
She was such a b**** to me during that time and other times.




M

I am sorry sorry she was cruel to you and that she obviously so insensitive. I think if we had different backgrounds our bipolar wouldn't be so bad.
