A Quandary!

A woman I work with is making me quite angry at the moment. Not the first time I hear you say. Well, this is pretty relevant to me and my situation. This woman is about 35 years old and has two small children. Mum is about 64 and looks after the kids for her - heroic, cos they're very small. Now, dad (the sainted one) has been dead for exactly two years. Mum, good on her, has got herself a boyfriend. But my friend at work is pretty unhappy about this - apparently two years is not long enough for her to mourn. She doesn't understand why and how mum can move on at all.

Well, I've been mostly listening - today I said, have you met him? No. I thought, well how can you judge anything. And actually, what I've been thinking all along is, it's none of your damned business!! Well apparently one brother has met him and he looks like a cross between George Clooney and Harrison Ford. Well, I said if she gets tired of him..... Haha - went down like a burning spitfire!!

But in my opinion, when you're 64, you're going to grab a slice of happiness if you get a chance, aren't you? Anyhow, I asked my daughters what they thought about this - what a bitch, they said! Leave her alone, none of your business.

I was so pleased about this, I really was. I mean, you know what I'm up to - and maybe one day I'll have a similar situation, and if they behaved like that I'd be truly embarrassed that they were related to me - I honestly would. One thing she said was - I never thought mum would need to have a man to be complete. I thought, hey you do need a man to do some things hunni - or don't you think your mum does that any more? Bit my tongue though.

I'm waiting to hear from him again - grrrrrr. He always has this effect on me, doesn't he? I was so right to get myself some other men, it definitely helps a lot. Still, it's Wednesday, should hear in the next day or two. Bloody men xxxxx
