Finally a nice evening

John decided for some reason this afternoon we should go out to his mom and dad's. This was shocking considering the last 5 or 6 times we have been out there has been just terrible. John has a bad relationship with them pretty much since they adopted him and they had their biological son Mike, they can never seem to think he can do anything right, plus well he choose me and they couldn't stand that. i have never not once in the last 18 years have i felt like they liked me. i know for a fact they didn't like me when we first got together. They came right out and said so. And John and I still feel they don't but at least they haven't voiced it for a while. anyway......we go out to there house once every couple months or so......I mean who needs to go feel bad about themselves more often then that, right. Well when we were out there last time John's dad and brother started in on him about not being back to work yet. Well hello.....no this fault!! So he did what he always does. He takes it while we are there, then finds and excuse to leave early and then this last time he says that maybe we shouldn't go out for at least 6 months this time. Well it had only been about a month since then and he says maybe we should go out. So we went and surprisingly it was a nice evening. Nobody put us down or hinted that his brother and his wife and kids were better. I was really surprised. We actually stayed for almost 5 hours. That hasn't happened for a very long time. It was a nice evening.

That's wonderful! :) Too bad they can't act like mature individuals more often, huh? ;)

It is always good when the grandkids can enjoy the grandparents :)
