Easter with the family, over.

[noelia_g]

News:

Mom might be finalising her divorce with my father, to which I'm saying fucking FINALLY, because they've been separated for six years now, and in those six years he called me ONCE, and so I'm all for Mom actually moving on.

Uncle J (78) is having an affair with an 82 years old widow. Aunt W (83) is not amused. The entire family is torn between going WTF and mad glee at the gossip potential.

Grandpa's surgery went very well, there's no remission, and even though he has still some therapy to go through, we're actually very optimistic.

Operation Let's Get Noelia Married seems to have stalled, much to my relief, because everyone seems more interested in my studies than in my love life. No attempts to set me up with eligible sons of friends and neighbours were observed, and some of the relatives were positive about my desire to start another MA course in autumn. I'm suspecting an alien invasion and my family being replaced with pod people, and I kind of love it.

Aw man! Best of luck to your mom on her next step in life!

PS: Man, you have to admire a 78 year old guy still having an energy to have an affair O_o WOW

Even if you family have been replaced with aliens, I'd say - great :D Good to hear everything is going well!

I'm so happy for your happy Easter and grandpa's surgery :) Squee!

Six years? I mean, I was sure that your parents are divorced o_O

Nope, separated, and they were going to get a divorce, but father hadn't contacted us for a long while, which made starting the divorce proceedings kind of difficult, since we don't know where exactly he is right now, or how to contact him... Mom is looking into that entire thing of divorce in absence finally.

I just usually say 'divorced' when talking about my parents to avoid going into the entire complicated story.

Wykryli u niego jakiś czas temu komórki rakowe, wycięli, potem miał nawrót, wycinali znowu... na razie bez nawrotu na szczęście...

Is Aunt W his wife or sister?

[noelia-g.livejournal.com]

Wife.

[novin-ha.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't be much amused either, then.

[noelia-g.livejournal.com]

Very much so. Though there is the fact that Uncle J is her second husband, and she's been with him for five years before she divorced her first husband... (that was fifteen years ago, too) that side of the family is better than many soap operas.

They've got a lot of energy... my grandparents are pretty much grown into one entity by now, argue as they might, and they're not yet 70.

80-year-old affairs? didn't know that even happened at that age. hmm.

o.0 Hoshit. That's...yeah, I'm leaning towards WTF myself)
If it makes you feel any better, my cousin is either gay or dating my art teacher!
