ravena_kadeWas able to get out and do some gardening tonight. Yay. It is a shame that the lilacs have gone by. I was lucky and was able to get some gardening time while they were in full bloom. They are intoxicating. The Peonies and Iris flowers will be next. I enjoy my garden time.
I told my Dad that now that the weather is getting warmer (even if it rains) I dont want to be hemmed in by plans with family. I either want to be in the garden/at the beach/or with friends. Im tired of just sitting and listening to sick and tired family.
There is a family wedding that I am dreading. The wedding should be a fun thing, but the family is killing it. The wedding is in Worcester. Dad want to go out to it with the cousins. I wanted to meet them at the train station. Dad threw a hissy fit and said he wouldn't go to the wedding if I didn't go with them. We have booked a hotel for 2 nights as the wedding is at 2:00 on Saturday. They want to leave Boston at 10 AM on Friday. REALLY...ffffffff.... And it gets worse. Since stroke cousin refuses to sit in a back seat and cancer/spinal surgery cousin cannot drive but needs to sit in. a front seat the cousins have taken over my Dad's car. cancer/spinal surgery cousin will drive with dad, and the younger bitchy sister will also go with them. They need me in the back seat of the clown car...errr.. van so I can take car of the 96 year old aunt. They also have to pack in my Dad's car as they are bringing 3 walkers and 2 commodes and a case of adult diapers. I have no idea why we are leaving so early when we can't get into the hotel until 4 PM. I also dont know how Dad will do as I am his navigator...we and the GPS on my phone. The 2 cousins that are with him dont have any common sense. I hope the hotel has a bar.
I did tell Dad that I would away to New Hampshire with him for Father's Day, He wants to go to his boss's condo where we stayed in the fall. We can go and then head home Sunday and we can stop at a casino in Nashua that he has wanted to try. It should make him happy.
The following week I head to New Jersey with my friends Phoenix Swords. I am looking forward to to that.
Maybe next week I can walk barefoot in the ocean =)

I still miss the two story white lilac that grew next to the bathroom window at the house I rented when I was in college. It smelled so lovely!
