Oh where to start... on Monday the hubby received an e-mail from his parents where they flat out stated that they don't like me, have never liked me, and never will like me. They were very disappointed that we are making the guest room into a kid's room (we are in the adoption process) and keeping our craft room. (We chose to transform the guest room because the craft room has a doggie door--and what kiddos don't like to do crafts?) Of course, the hubs showed me, and also called them and lost it on them. He told them that if they wanted a relationship they needed to sincerely apologize. Well apparently their hate for me is more than their desire for a relationship with me, because no apology has come. (Which is really sad!)
It's so out of left field-- I haven't seen or heard from them since Christmas when I invited them down. Their other son had just had a baby and didn't want them at his house, and kept them from meeting the baby for a couple of months. So I felt sorry for them, and had them down. My mom had just died and they weren't concerned for me at all and didn't seem to care that it was a bad Christmas for me.
I say good riddance, but my hubby is feeling really sad and rejected.
