Good for her. I'm so glad that she made peace with her parents. Life is too short.
Ironically, this weekend will be an ordeal to get through, and is potentially a powder-keg ready to blow apart me and my parents.
Estranged from them for many years, peace at last and a degree of enjoyment in each others company, if not exactly "closeness".
But they are SCREAMINGLY liberal. They fly in tomorrow for a week's visit. Politics are agreed to be totally off the radar during our infrequent visits. Hubby and I will be quietly mourning our hero and biting our tongues constantly. One small misplaced word from them though, and "the dogs of conservative hell will be unleashed" (hubby's words).
And God help the liberal who invites an irate attack from him. He's loaded for bear and pretty much fed up right about now.
