PLANNING IT TO LIFE
All the kids and most of the grandkids are coming to the weddding.
We are very happy about this. It is a real gift.
They have been part of our life together and now they will get to be engaged in this next phase.
As for the rest of it, we are working on the details.
There is far more planning going on here than I expected, myself.
Who will stand where. How we will cut the cake. Will there be a register. Fundamental issues.
Of course you know that it is not me that is thinking about all this. If it were up to me I would just walk up to the banana grove and get hitched and every man and woman for themselves.
Cut the cake, have a toast and send them home. 'Them' now being about 75 people. Expect 100 by the time the list is finalized.
But things do not work out that way here.
That is one reason for getting married. To have some cultured perspective and not just pull stuff out of my ass like I would do it.
As it says here in fine print, you can't get married if it just you who is doing it.
It takes two. At least.
