Mountain Out of a Mole Hill
Yes, It's been a week and I have not populated my blog. I feel guilty doing it during work hours and forget about it once I get home. I will try to be more diligent in the future.
So the confrontation I was dreading on Easter weekend didn't happen. Turns out my relatives already know about the limited number invited to the wedding. My mom just neglected to tell me. AND it's not such a big deal anyway! My aunt is having problems with her knees and some blood clots and probably wouldn't go anyway. Ugh!
The rest of the weekend was good and bad. B & I had a battle of wills on the way to Peoria that put a black cloud over the whole weekend. Both of us are too stubborn to give in and it usually leads to one or both of us being mad or upset. My nieces made up for the bad parts. It was fun to be involved with hiding/finding the Easter eggs. My sister and I started out hiding the eggs and then ended up chucking most of them around the yard. Since Mini-A is just under 3 years old, it would take forever for her to find the eggs if we really hid them. It's exciting enough for her just to discover one in the middle of the yard.
The wedding was ok. Nice ceremony and the reception was ok. I get the feeling that my new step-sister-in-law does not like me very much. I met her for the first time as they escorted us from our seats after the ceremony. I stood up, said congratulations, hugged my step-brother (which was a little uncomfortable since I have only met him a handful of times), turned to shake his new wife's hand and said, "Hi, I'm S...". I could swear I got a dirty look. I later wondered if she didn't know who I was and was not happy about a strange woman hugging her new husband. The other possibility is that she remembered that my RSVP was late. Maybe it was just my imagination.
We didn't stay very long after the food was served. My sister and family left to get the kids home and B was still being pissy. We did sit by a friend of my step-mom's who was very nice and fun to talk to. They didn't stay long either because they were eager to get home and watch the rest of the Illini game.
Enough of the Easter recap. This week some friends and I kicked off a new monthly event. We each love Sx in the City and some of us have not seen all the episodes or have not seen the unedited shows. Last night we got together, each of us brought something to eat, and watch the first 6 episodes. It was fun! I enjoy these girls night out events. I was so busy last fall with work and didn't really get to see or talk to my girlfriends as much as I would have liked. I now feel a bit left out of the group sometimes because I was not available for so long and missed out on stuff. My own fault so I can't really get upset about it.
Well, a little reminder has popped up letting me know I need to get back to work. Until next time...
