Surprise visitor
So this afternoon I'm sitting chatting with a friend online, and the doorbell rings. I look out the window and I think I recognize the car, but I'm not sure until I look out the door. It's my dad. Surprise surprise. I believe the last time I actually saw him was last July. Yes, I'm talking a year ago. I could be wrong though, so I'll have to double-check that one with Mike. Anyway, I asked him if his wife knew he was there. He said that he told her he was going to visit me at times, and she said just don't tell her. So, I guess that's a step in the right direction. Of course, it was a little difficult since I didn't know he was coming and didn't have time to psyche myself up for it. It was a little tense…at least for me. And every time, he said anything that sounded like he was complaining about his wife or her family, I was kind enough to remind him that he married her. Such a good daughter. Bottom line, though, the letter obviously did make an impression. I must be a better writer than I thought. I'll keep you all updated, I'm sure.
Life goes on, and it is eventful…never boring. I am surrounded by DRAMA!!!!
