Mini success!

Dad called me today to tell me about how the talk went with Groom's parents.  He said he was happy with it!!  My father is not the type to say positive things like that, so I was more than elated to hear this coming from his mouth.

"They were very cooperative!  I was afraid they would have an issue with the date we chose."

"Oh!  Well that is great news!"

"Yeah, and they also said that they'd go over there a bit before the wedding to prepare and that if we needed help, that they'd accomodate."

"Wow, well that is really great."

I consider this a great success.  I am going to dwell on these diminutive victories because I don't know how frequently they'll occur. 

Eventually my dad gave my mom the phone to talk to me.  She asked if I had spoken to any number of relatives that I/we have had a falling out with... of course I haven't. 

"Well, I hope they don't cause a scene.  I doubt they will though..."

"If that happens, I will kindly ask them to leave.  That will be my day and I won't have anyone upsetting me on it."

Anyway, overall, today was a good day and I'm happier for it.  Trying to be more of a positive person as I am normally quite the pessimist.
