There is seemilngly no end to the ways that I, Kelly, can avoid responsibility.
It's a gift, I tell you.
Just moments ago, in fact, I was daydreaming about my wedding. What I should have been doing is waking my children for the day, and exercising my flabby muscles. In my imagination, I was Grace Kelly getting married in a pale blue silk suit, with lots of splendid jewelry. Also, I was firm.
It's not like I am engaged, or anything. I just fantasize about weddings on account of being single. It is what single women everywhere do.
People who ask me when he is going to propose often follow-up with an RSVP to my wedding. I'm not having a wedding, I hope. Who would go thru that twice? I very nearly killed my sweet mother over my first wedding.
Weddings are expensive and stressful. I do not want to have a second wedding. I do want a lovely new dress, an official pronouncement....and then I would like to be left alone with Tim for a long time. Is that too much to ask? I was thinking that a pastoral sort could come to the house and preside over vows in the living room. This is my idea of an ideal second wedding. Therefore, no RSVPs are necessary.
Just so you know.
So, when do you think he's going to propose?

Hey, maybe you should use my Dad, like your mom did back in the day. Or Johanna, she's officiated a wedding.
Also, I'm pretty sure that Granny wore a blue dress suit to her wedding. You should ask her. I'm pretty sure that Grandpa accidentally donated it to the Good Will and it's still a sore subject...
what? well whatever but I'm going to be in the backyard (like Sarge used to be) scratching at the back door until you let me into the wedding. so there. ~paj
Well shoot. I was looking forward to a trip to Boise sometime in the near-ish future... 'cause I wouldn't miss it for the world. Maybe I'll come anyway and scratch at the back door with Patti.
I couldn't begin to guess when he'll propose. But I sure wish he'd do it soon. I've been praying for SO long for a husband for you. I could start praying for something else if I could check that one off! =)
Hmmm, no RSVP? Are you sure you want us to just show up at our leisure? And do not forget the gift possibilities..... You can never have enough crock pots.
