One more wedding
Congratulations to the newlyweds on their one week anniversary. Only my daughter would have a nut case at a wedding party brunch and a snake at the reception. Not a snake in the grass kind but an honest to goodness snake, identified as a copperhead by two who should know. Thank goodness I didn’t know until much later or the brides mother would have been a no show, but in the list of things that happened for this wedding that would have been way down on the list. I don’t think anyone took a picture and I’ll have to ask Jim if he told the people in charge of renting the lodge that we had an extra guest. I thought you all would want to know.
Happy Birthday to my sister. The big 50, a half a century, 5 decades feeling old yet?

Sorry I haven’t written, I didn’t realize it had been so long. Mostly we have been wedding planning, those are mostly in hand. Just the last minute stuff that can’t be done until the last minute.
I have been to a lot of resturants and I have been embrassed by the way people have behaved (a very few times) but until today I had never been in the position of possibly being ask to leave. I thought the police were going to be called. You have to read the daughters blog. We had a bridal luncheon/breakfast at IHOP this morning, the mothers, a few friends and the loon. How to describe this morning? There was so much. i was there for the whole thing and I can’t even begin to keep the order straight. One thing she said that I accept as truth was that money didn’t mean anything to her, and its a good thing because she kept promising everyone that when she got money she would share or in some cases give the money to them. She wants us to think good thoughts for her because she’s going to New York on $60.00 and I do. I’m so glad I was there, the telling will never live up to this morning, but its a great story. Early on she ask the waiter about his tip and hoped he would get a lot today, so maybe? this was all an act (if it was it was a really really good one) because we went a long way to making it Christmas and said sorry to everyone in the resturant in fact daughter gave the manager a written apologoy (someone has stolen my misspellers dictionary). We couldn’t get her to leave and the manager finally escorted her outside and stayed talking to her until her ride came out of the restroom. She kept saying we didn’t all arrive at the same time so why did we have to leave at the same time. When he goes home tonight he’ll have a story to tell, the waiter and the people at the Quick stop where they stopped to get gas on the way home.
