WEDDING PROGRESS
The honey wagon came today and cleaned out the cesspool.
Not too elegant but this is a finish to a long 'do list' that we have been working for the wedding.
This included writing a minute by minute schedule of the ceremony, printing and sending the invites, arranging for the sound equipment, pay the balance on the wedding cake, confirm with the 'preacher' (a city councilman), order the seats (100) and table cloths (4), finish the programs (which were finished when we decided not to have them), get the shirts and ties, get the best men's ties, get a new pool cover, get new 'drapes' for the back sliders, buy beverages, manicure the 'gardens' (done yesterday-one man all day), order flowers, get flowers for pots in yard, pump out the cesspool so 100 people can flush at the same time.
And many more too numerous to mention that are too small to go on a list on the refrigerator door.
And, two days late, the last of the RSVPs came in.
Did I mention that I am getting married two weeks?
NO! 9 days.
How did I get into this?
A tough question to answer. It probably started 33 years ago last April when 'someone' answered an ad that I had placed in an alternative weekly. The rest is his-tory. Our-story.
Did I mention that I am very happy?
