My dad has not been in good health the past few years. He had a heart valve replaced last year and I have not seen him since I traveled to Tennessee to be there with him for the surgery. The doctors still have not cleared him to drive and he doesn't like flying so he is having my cousin drive him over to Oklahoma and we will all meet at my sister's house tomorrow.
I always look forward to seeing my dad but we have a strange relationship. I hate his wife. She is evil. She is not coming on this trip so this should be like a party for me. Also, there is the little detail that my father doesn't know I am a lesbian. I mean, I am sure he has figured it out by now, but we don't discuss it. I remember the names he would call my older lesbian cousin when I was growing up. So I just don't get too close to him at all. It is sad because before my parents divorced we were very close.
So here on my blog, in celebration of the evil step monster not being on the trip I promise to attempt to show my dad how much I love him and try to bond with him. I however cannot come out to him so you won't get me to promise that one!
Wish me luck!
