Friday. I looooove Friday's. I assume this feeling of relief is ingrained in me from 35+ years of working Mon-Fri payroll job. I just know that I love Fridays!
DGD6 left at 7:30pm last night and arrive back here at 6:15am. Since DGD6 bedtime is 7pm it would be easier to let her sleep here, but I want DD to take her home each night in an effort to make DD raise DGD6. If DD asks if DGD6 can stay overnight then I always say "yes". But I keep the expectation that DD will get DGD6 and take her to their home each night.
DD has told DS9 four times that she would take him to a Christmas event (community lights, carriage ride, etc). Each of those 4 times, she reneged at the last moment. Each of those 4 times DS9 has cried in frustration and disappointment. This has prompted earnest talks with DS9 how we can still love someone but not trust them to keep their word. How letting hatred into your heart harms us more than them. Establishing a relationship with DD is not a smooth path. It is filled with potholes and stumbling blocks. But over the past 3 years, so much progress has been made. We just keep taking it one baby step at a time. DD has told DS9 she would take him and DGD6 to this Christmas event tonight. Maybe it will happen this time.

1. Know what you want.
2. Go after it relentlessly.
