We had a good dinner. I am glad I gave the matter some thought, the way she told me the news, so matter of fact and low key, I wasn’t sure if she was happy about it. If she was not coming our way to pick up some stuff from our house, we won’t even see them till sometime late Nov. Anyway,she looked happy, well both of them look pretty happy. I am happy to hear the ring took almost a year to design and make so a lot of thought must have gotten into it. Apparently the fiance designed it with input from my d. I really liked that.

I greeted them at the door and when addressed asked to be addressed by our first names. The fiance didn’t change, and I repeated it once. If he chose to continue to address us as Mr and Mrs it is fine with us.

I told them we will have a proper celebration when we can all get together in mid Nov and have some champagne.

We asked what are their future plans and they both said it’s now up to my d to plan.

Now I feel I can finally clean up the d’s room and change it into my office, which I need badly. :D/
