New Day

When I got home last night, my husband told me his sister-in-law had been talking to him all day. He recommended to her that she should talk with me. Last night I told him that I didn't think it would ever happen. Well, color me wrong. This morning she started talking to me again! It's been two years. She started it off with an apology. It really meant a lot to me.

She and I talked about the various things going on and the things that had happened. It made me sad for a relationship that could have been. We wasted two years based on someone else's lies. I feel so bad for her and the road she has in front of her. It will not be easy, nice, or fun. I offered our help in anything she may need, but I know it's not enough. And we can't help financially which is probably where she'll need it the most.

I'm glad we were able to purge our lives of the poison, but I feel bad that it fell on others. I think Jon's taking it quite hard because he sees what's happening, but can't do anything to stop it. His family does not respect him in the least. It'll be interesting to see this play out. In the meantime, my SIL and I have reconciled and I've been re-added as a friend on Facebook! Yay! :)
