Reunion day


So today is the annual family reunion. That means lots of food, lots of little kids, and lots of great aunts prodding me for info. When I was married it was "when are you gonna start having babies already?!" When I got divorced, it was "good, he wasn't any good for you anyway.....now when are you gonna find a good man?!" I literally skipped the last reunion while single because I couldn't handle being asked 30 times successively about my marital status. Like I needed to feel any worse about being a year shy of thirty and a single divorcee! Trust me, I had it covered all by myself.

This year, I am TEN WEEKS away from being wed (again). This time to the good man they were harassing me about! Amen and Hallelujah! I'm not subjecting him to a whole day of my extended family, but he will have to make an appearance later today. And it will be his turn for the great aunts to prod him in order to "deem him worthy". No, I am not kidding.

Of course, they will start asking about children right now, even though we aren't even married yet. Ugh. Lord give me strength! Heh.

  1. That is stinking hilarious and I am certainly not looking forward to ever being asked those questions. How about if I just seek you out and we can hide together? Lol!
