Hello everyone and a very happy Friday; my favorite day of the week. My day was okay a little busy at work since it is Friday and I don't like leaving things for next week. Today was also National Wear Red Day so at my office you could wear jeans as long as you were red. Not to mention February is National Heart Month. Our office rarely gets to wear jeans so that was really nice that we could today.

After work M and I got takeout for the parents and grandpa and tried to redo Monday's disastrous visit with the father. M decided to talk to my father behind my back while I was at the spa and basically told my father to grow up that I have issues but I did not ask for those issues. He's like you are going to lose her so maybe don't insult her heart condition or her mental health issues. I felt really shocked that M put my father to task on his being a jerk wad; he also explained our relationship since my father thinks it's a large difference. 6 years is not that bad.

So we redid dinner and it wasn't so terrible; Grandfather just loves M to pieces and he can see that I'm head over heels about that man. Dad was sort of nice and apologized. You could also somewhat understand Mom tonight and she also really likes M. So I guess he has her stamp of approval. He also has Grandfather's stamp of approval. I know my Aunt really likes him as well, my Uncle has yet to meet him as have my girls officially. The youngest got to meet him for Strep Throat but that was before we were officially dating.

His sister is supposed to be coming to church on Sunday so I will get to meet her and her husband along with their two children. So I get to meet them at church and dinner after church. It feels so real and for the first time I like that feeling and I don't want to hide from that feeling or put up more walls around my heart. I feel like he is pulling me out of the shell the PTSD caused and I'm feeling more and more like my old self.

Hugs to everyone
