[QUOTE="Star*, post: 515570, member: 4964"] Jo , Congratulations on being Mother of the Bride....and not Bridezilla. I applaud her for being a difficult child but taking an extreme amount of time to get all the details right, and include everyone. As far as easy child NOT being asked? Well I can tell you from experience, that even though my sister and I are NOT and I mean NOT close at all - I asked a near stranger (the woman who introduced me to X) to be my Matron of honor, and not my sister. Didn't think anything of it - sister was after all in the wedding - but when I look back at that day, and the pictures of all of us standing there? I really wish I would have made my sister the Maid of Honor. I didn't know it at the time, but it hurt my parents feelings . The weird thing is - after the wedding I hardly ever spoke to that woman again, and twenty (brushes hand over mouth) years later? I wish I'd never met her. I mean for having Dude? Yeah - but for meeting Satan? Sheesh - thanks for that. (Wonder if she got Old Scratch to give her a sports car or something for gettin' his son married off to me?) Very glad to hear you aren't in terrible pain, but knees take a long long time to heal. I'm told by DF's doctor - it's one of the longest recoveries there is in medicine. So literally take it one step at a time. Oh and as far as the jerk in your office - the parking space creep? I hope you waive your parking pass around like an air freshener in a Bulls locker room after a game. Lord what a twit. Golly NOW does he "GET IT?" (says bad word) three letters, rhymes with ---oh well if I said THAT? You'd know what I said. hahah So your mother in law is getting accustomed to widowhood huh? (shrug) Well - that's good.
