I had a doctor's appointment yesterday and I'll post more about that later, but right now I'm having a pity party. Anyone want to come? My cousin is getting married tonight in Maine and I'm obviously not going to be there. My mom just called me with all sorts of details - what the tables look like (Meg's doing pink and brown, so you KNOW I'm loving the decorations!) and the centerpieces. Who is helping to decorate, and what every little thing looks like. She's a great sport to try to make me feel like I'm not really missing it. I'm reminded of the Little House On The Prairie books when Mary gets Scarlett Fever and goes blind and Laura has to be her sister's eyes when they go on their first train ride. She describes everything for her sister so that Mary will experience all the scenery that Laura does. I hope Mom isn't wearing one of those bonnets right now, though...
But I can hear my aunts and uncles in the background cutting up and laughing (no matter what Uncle Brian says, I DON'T think it's raining and I DON'T think they are having a miserable time. But nice try. So because I'm jealous that everyone is there having fun and will get to experience the blessed union of my sweet cousin and her precious husband to be, I'm having a pity party. No RSVP is needed. My party colors will NOT be pink and brown. I think I'll go for an orange and purple theme. Matching cups and plates, and some fabulous big chocolate cake. Who wants to come? Any takers?
I'll just sit here at my desk at work in 187 degree weather and tell myself that I'm having just as much fun.
