March 12 -- Doing me wrong...
3I swear I am cursed… So I had that other topic about being in a wedding. Did I state that I am outnumbered by inlaws? My husband is 1 of 6 children!! The other topic was about #6 child. This topic is about #1 child.
Yesterday, I got a call from his girlfriend. I didn’t hear the phone, so she left a breathless, excited message and asked me to call her back – she had wonderful news! (First thought, good Lord, what now?)
So as I was waiting for my niece to arrive to go to the swim meet with the babydoll, I called her from the car.
Finally, she and #1 child have set a wedding date. It is in 4 weeks. Can I bring my family to podunk town in SC?
Shake my head…why me? Turns out my husband and child #3 are the only invitees. How can I say no?? Hubby just started a new job, and has no earned time off yet and can’t go. I will have to travel a 12 hour drive with the ruggies, alone! I love driving, but that is a longgg drive. Am I getting points in the book of life for all of this craziness? Oh, did I mention the wedding is mid day on a Wednesday?
I am seriously considering becoming a judgemental bitch so I can be dropped from all of these invite lists! I try not to rock the boat, but I am thinking that plan is backfiring 
!
Now this girlfriend is a sweetheart…child #1, well, the label fits. If I can swing the time off and the expense, I will be spending spring break in podunk SC…
Do you have any cool plans for Spring Break? Can I go with you? Pretttttyyy please??

I think you need to become a writer of screwball comedies. You seem to have the material.
Good luck I hope you are able to take all these weddings with existential good humor. At worse, I hope, you can make great stories out of them.
/giphy "good luck"

@PlacidPenguin the challenge is, 1: this is constant, 2: I am only sharing a small bit. Why do you think I am so happy-go-lucky here? This place is normal compared to my reality!!

@PlacidPenguin exactly…

I blame this month’s goat, @mikibell for your problems.
Hey, that’s you! Good going, goat!
@lisaviolet did you see dreaming tree’s freebie this month? Thinking that would be pretty as a wedding gift??
@mikibell The captions? Those are nice. I hadn’t seen those.
His site is so confusing to me, the bundles, the individual files, makes me crazy.
@lisaviolet the baby bundle…has multilayered hearts
@mikibell Ah, got it. The free gift! Der! I was thinking the free file!
Oh, yeah, I bought the whole bundle when it came out. It looks very interesting and I figured out last year how to make (well, resize) card stock shadowboxes.
All the different possibilities of color for the layers and shimmer brushes! I was pretty excited!
Yes! Yes, great for a wedding gift!
@mikibell I’ll have to check with @pavlov, but I’m pretty sure there’s no wrong way to do sex…(wait that’s not what you’re asking about- sorry. Is there any way to fly down to a nearby town and rent a car for the rest of the way? Is child #1 at least putting you up in a hotel? Good luck what ever happens!)
@dashcloud If you have to check with me, you may need much, much more practice.
