Family Dinner

omlyThis weekend we had a dinner at my dad's house. Now I love my father dearly, but if anyone thinks that I am indecisive/a poor planner they need only meet my father to find out why. The previous weekend he requested we come this past sunday. All week my sister and I chased after him with phone calls with more information of when we should be there etc. He said that it was really his wife (my step-mother)'s idea and that he would have to ask her. Only he never finalized with her that we were coming. So when my sister called on sunday around noon to find out when dinner was and my step-mother answered, they were both really confused for a bit. Considering how far we have to go to visit and the cost of gas, this was mildly annoying. In the end it all worked out though.
I actually had a really good time. I like spending time with my dad, though planning events with him drives me a little crazy. I got updated on a bunch of stuff (my brother C caught a 52 lb sea bass!). I got to see my baby sister M, and spend some great conversation with my little sister H. I haven't just sat down with H in too long. After dinner we headed back to mom's house so that I could do some troubleshooting with H's first sweater.
"I gave money to your boyfriend."
"Really? Why?"
"For catnip"
This also meant that I could get up the catnip from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
moztoo's store Incantations that H had picked up for me the other day. (Ha I feel clever. I even thought to check online to make sure he carried it before asking her to pick some up for me.) I hear that I wiped him out.
Now I am remarkably relaxed for me. I am glad we made time to go down. I kind of wish the boys had been home though. I haven't seen them since... well since the third/fourth of July festivities.
