The next couple of weeks will be extremely busy for me. I will be on less and less for the next few weeks. My son will be getting married on the 15th. We are having his reception at our house on the 16th. My nephew will be graduating from high school. I am helping my sister with a possible surprise get together to combine his 18th birthday with a graduation party.
I have flowers to make, a garden to spruce up, a wedding cake to make, and I am crazy! Huggers to all....Sarina

It does sound like you will be very busy the next few weeks. Congratulations to your son on getting married and hope him and his wife have a wonderful life together and have a family. Congratulations to your nephew as well for graduating high school. I am sure you will be working hard for both receptions. We will be here when you have time to chat with us. :-) Hope you are having a wonderful and safe holiday weekend so far.

Am glad you took the moment to share about your real world and the wonderful things that are happening. I hope everything goes smoothly and that fun is had by all. Also some memories will be talked about for awhile I think. Good luck in all you do. An update from time to time might be in order. Thanks again for sharing this with us.

I am sure that things will go as smoothly as possible. But, there is always that unexpected hurdle that gets in the way.

Glad that you enjoyed her music. She does have a lovely voice. She can be very powerful and very light too.

Well best of luck and enjoy the world out there! I have a feeling most of us will be on a lot less now that the weather is hopefully getting nice enough to do things outside. The summer always brings picnics, graduations, weddings and the sort it seems and ends up being quite busy! Congrats on the son's marriage. Enjoy life girlfriend... you deserve it! And don't let it drive you TOO crazy!

Oh wow, so much to do, so little time. I for one will miss you dear but you have a couple of happy family events coming up. How exciting. I hope everything goes smoothly and I'm sure you'll be keeping us up to date. You will need your daily fix here even if you just take some time out to relax.
Hoping everything goes well for you.
P.S. Sarina is a beautiful name. :) Good luck with everything.

What wonderful reasons you have to be busy with. I am so happy for you. You will have to post pictures of the cake, and the flowers. Give us instructions on anything special about what you do. All of this on top of recently starting a new job! Just keep telling yourself, "One ay at a time." or better yet, "one task at a time". Enjoy your celebrations, we will be here when you get back.

You have rather a lot on your plate. Having the reception at your home is a LOT of work. How many guests are coming?
I hope you have heaps of family who will help you.
My cousin is having his 60th birthday next month, & there are going to be over 100 guests. They are having it in a shed. They are hiring catering companies, but of course this will cost big money.
You are crazy. I couldn't do it...But good luck & have a wonderful time.

Wow, thats a tough schedule you have there! I don't envy you LOL.
However, all those occasions are happy ones, and so I'm sure everything will fall into place. Remember to just do one thing at a time, and take a breather before moving on to the next task, otherwise, you''ll be all frazzled while everyone else is enjoying themselves, and you won't be able to enjoy the occasion with them.
Here's to a happy next few weeks lol.
