ok, went to haysville and i DID end up squeezing a fabulous 3 day weekend out of the deal. although i very much wish it had been under better circumstances. however it was really nice to spend so much time with my family. i find myself more confused about why krystal ditched us all than i was in the beginning, and more hurt, and much more angry. but it was cool to have my brother to myself again. but in all honesty, that's not even what it's about anymore. the last time i even thought about "having him to myself" was when he was in high school and they first started dating and i hated her for stealing him away from me - even though he hated me at the time. and so here we are, and as i'm driving to haysville, he calls me to ask if we can hang out saturday and run errands, just the two of us. talk about a breath of fresh air! un-interrupted adult conversation! quite a beautiful thing! (sometimes i feel like i have a strange appreciation for things that other people might take for granted, this is one of those times).
so yes, went to haysville, spent time with the family. saturday was hanging out/shopping/eating chocolate. sunday we had thanksgiving dinner - why not?! we were all actually there! and then monday cameron met with krystal for the first time and returned oscar to her. hellish day for cameron. hellish day for all of us. but he is more of a man, and continues to be more of a husband and a friend than she ever has, will, or did deserve. we're all so proud of him and how well he's handling himself and the whole situation. i dont think anyone could do so well, i know i couldn't.
