good for you. Abraham Lincoln once said that folks are about as happy as they make up their minds to be. No one has the power to hurt like family obviously you have a loving and forgiving heart==we all live longer when we do. I had a sign once that said "The devil loves a bitter old woman!"

That's really wonderful for you!

I had some wonderful news too - my former BIL said some nice things about me to my daughter, and she told me what he said. I thought he really had a strong dislike for me all these years! What a surprise.

My brother divorced himself from his family for about 7 years (yes, we did contribute to the situation but it was not divorce-worthy IMHO). He really hurt our mother the worst. He has been back in the picture for a while and mother is really happy about it. My sister and I are cautious. We are keeping a low profile and do not get entangled in any of the mess. Families is why I love my friends. At least I had a say in picking them.

Hope the relationship with your SIL keeps going strong.

If everyone would get over their own ego's we'd all be happier and our families would be healthy. I'm for making the new year a loving one.
