If its upsetting at times it might be helpful to remind yourself of the tendency of men past a certain age to be helpless without a woman to care for them.

Spike's Bitches 24: I'm Very Seldom Naughty.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Not upsetting. I worry about whether he's ready for another relationship (largely because I feel like I'm only just getting there myself), and I don't want him to fall into something else just because he's lonely. But I know M wouldn't have wanted him to be on his own for the rest of his life, and it's good to see him happy.

I'm glad you're essentially comfortable with it, it can be rough when the offspring are not.
Maybe it WILL turn out to be too soon or because he's lonely, but right now he's happy and that probably matters most.

Yep. This is all quite indisputably his decision, of course, and I'm good with that.

I think you've grown as a person.

Our wings are not tired.
I've done an hour's worth of yard work to beat the heat of the day. That's all I should have to do productive today, right?
I'm glad to hear your dad has found companionship billytea. People who are relationship people are bound to do it again as soon as possible.

It was too hot yesterday to be as productive as I needed to be, packing-wise.
Event starts this afternoon, I feel completely overwhelmed and sucktastic. Meep.
