lucymorningstarToday was... interesting to say the least.
Yesterday was my Dad's birthday, and he decided that he and my mum were going to come on a trip to visit '[me] and J'. He's just turned 70 and I think he's becoming more aware of his mortality because recently one of his friends died and he's had a bit of an epiphany that he cant keep putting things off. One of the things he's always wanted to do is go to Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch which is only about 5 minutes from us. So he decided they'd come and stay with us for a few days.
Of course, they didn't know about S, only me and J (which my mum had issues with as it was) and we couldn't exactly kick her out the house for the weekend so it was decided that we'd tell them the truth about the three of us when they got here this afternoon.
It wasnt easy. It took a little bit of explaining for them to understand. Mum was very shocked but did say that explained why J & I weren't getting married, and that she's looking forward to getting to know S. Dad basically said he knew there'd been something we hadn't been telling him, that it would take time for them to come to terms with - but they didn't leave so I'm guessing that's something.
So right now my parents have gone to bed. J&S are in the living room and I'm hiding away in my little desk area. I've just put together my bullet journal spread for this week and now I'm watching some videos on youtube and I'm thinking I won't be long to bed.
Tomorrow is a day out with my parents going to Llanfair, maybe S will be coming too. Who knows what the day will bring. But I think it's going to be interesting again
