It is a beautiful crisp fall day down at the town square. This past weekend was a good one as I was very productive but I was not in the best of moods. Saturday D and I went to see B run at the State meet. Sunday I ran a crew of volunteers at the adolescent home for a fall cleanup day. It was a good event and the property looks great. Following, I had to go home and deal with my own leaves. Thankfully D and B helped out and we cleaned up the entire yard. It is a banner year for leaves :-)
My Dad and his wife attended the meet on Saturday and he had previously asked about a popular diner located in Manchester. He never invited D and I but I assumed we were planning on going out after the meet. As we were getting ready to leave after the race I said "I guess we will join you for lunch at the diner" to which he replied "Oh, you are?". WTF? Either he is an idiot with absolutely no clue about subtext or he didn't really want us to go. Considering it was my birthday I had assumed that he would want to spend some time together. We went to lunch with them (he and his wife) but I was annoyed about the situation. I know this is one of the little things that I am supposed to let go of but sometimes accepting and letting go of emotionally charged issues can be easier said than done.
