My daughter has two of my grandchildren and she lives in Napa. Last summer she invited me to spend part of my summer vacation at her home. I thought it would be great. Spend time with the family, your some vineyards, buy some wine for the new school year. I was all for it.

The reality was different though. She would leave me at home to spend time with the kids so she could go run errands. Twice she went out for dinner with her husband while I stayed at the house. I told her clearly that I wasn’t happy with the situation and she got huffy and said that I had taken a year off work to help my son take care of his son.

This is absolutely true. I did that. I took a sabbatical to help my son who’s wife was crippled in a car accident and was in rehab for a fucking year learning how to use her body again. I didn’t say anything but the audacity was too much.

When my daughter invited me out for this summer I politely declined and said that I had plans. She asked what I was doing and I truthfully told her that my boyfriend and I were spending the summer fixing up the house and camping. She said that Napa is more fun and that the kids want to see me. I said I had a week free in August that she could visit me in Spokane. She didn’t like that idea. Now she isn’t talking to me and I’m okay with it. I’m currently drinking my morning wine and watching my boy toy powerwash the deck.
