What a joyous occasion it was this past weekend with the marriage of Chase and Tara. A great time was had by all, and I truly enjoyed the time spent with family and friends.
There are always lessons to be learned from these occasions and this weekend was no exception.
1. Brother Jim has had his iPhone for quite some time. Taught him how to delete all those unwanted icons off his phone that he has somehow accumulated.
2. Nephew taught his Dad how to turn on the cargo light on the truck that he has had for four years.
3. Learned having three old male dogs in the house results in a dog pissing contest. Good God, can those dogs hike a leg! (Maid coming today!)
4. Ok, cousin BBK, keep this a secret. " BBK to TPB: you gotta hear this!"
5. Ex sista in law is getting older but her clientele is getting younger.
6. Always handy having a triple head nurse in the family. Never know when a bridesmaid will go into a seizure!
7. Have a set of booster cables handy. Two cars DOA in the parking lot. Flashlight for hooking up the cables in the dark will keep you from blowing up a battery also!
8. Know the address of the venue before you call 911 for EMT's and an ambulance. They will get there a lot quicker.
9. Don't wear pencil thin high heels to a wedding with a slag gravel parking lot.
10. Make sure you know the grill works before having a party of thirty or more. Nice to have a full tank of gas and some lighting to avoid food poisoning from under cooled meat.
11. Show the love with a hug instead of a shake. Glad I learned this one before it was too late.
12. They say you can't teach an old dog new tricks. Don't tell that to 15 year old Dwezzel. He does like my dog treats!
13. Don't wait to be asked to help. Just jump right on in there. They will be glad you did.
14. Blogging is great. Just heard two more confessions from women that said "now don't be posting this on FB or that blog”!
Life is good. Looking forward to the next series of life lessons that the world has to offer!
Retired in 2012. I'm trying to out run old age and boredom. So far, I'm winning the race!
