Well I have been informed hat I will be holding a party at my house for my fathers 80th birthday later this year.

This in and of itself is not a problem, I just take umbrage to the way I was told. His partner and I do not get along very well at all… never have. It is not explosive it is all jsut very very cival and no more. Generally this just washes off my back but I had already told her that I was planning to do something special for him and now ti turns out I get to great.. but I have been told when where and who. The who is good all three of my half sisters, Three yes three! This is somewhat of a surprise as I have only even met two of them and one of them just the once. The party bit I am looking forward to it was just the way I was told and the tone that put me off. I have never been close to my father in fact for a number of years there (can we say teenager and onwards) we were down right hostile toward each other when in the same room.
Things have changed a bit over the past few years though and we have come to an easy understanding. I just don’t like being talked to like I am the evil ungrateful daughter, All her children will be here too, with collected children of thier own. Seems like it will be a big event filled with people who do not think much of me because they never bothered to understand the situation. blah oh well I still get to hold the party I wanted even if they will hate it.
I have *big* dinner plans to make and photos to find.
After losing my mother last year ( who I had been out of contact with for many years) I feel this is something I need to do….

I am sure anyone who comes to my house now for dinner between now and november will be getting experimented on…. Must find good dishes for the dinner. And time to pull out my pld scrapbooking stuff to do up some frames of images for around the house.

Did I ever mention I am a compulsive entertainer.

All this and it will be barely a month after the Halloween Extravaganza we are already planning for this year.
