A Miracle pulled out of ones back side called The bachelorette party
That's right. It was a miracle pulled out of ones back side.
The Bachelorette party really was a success once we got to it, however getting to the party was the most frustrating thing that I've done in a long time. No matter what though, through all the different hard ships today that I'm about to rant about, it was well worth it. One of my best friends is getting married in two days. I know that she's been stressed about different things and I hope that tonight helped.
To start out with my rant. we were promised a lot of different things from different people to help us pull off this party. Most of them didn't come true. We had decided to hold the party at a second friends house, to make things easier and more of a gift to the bride to be.
We were promised that the kitchen would be clean so that we could serve food in there, and when we arrived, it hadn't been cleaned.... people didn't start trying to clean the kitchen/dinning room until we were cooking and that only lasted for about 5 minutes because my recipe for Mystery pie from my great grandmother had almost ended up in a trash can while I was using it.
We were told by two people that we would get rides to the store. My friend and I ended up walking. I don't know how much the total weight of our food was but I know mine was a bit more than 30 lbs. And because I'm pregnant, my friend wouldn't let me carry the heavy stuff.
Then when we get on a role again, an X-mother in law of my friend's sister comes barging into the house looking to pick a fight and take her grand son a day or so early. Just when the sister was starting to keep her promise of helping. The X-mother in law staid for a little more than an hour going between best granny in the world and granny from Hell that personally, I'd get a restraining order for. She finally left when my friend's mom walked in from work and with the most control in her voice that I've ever heard anyone have said, "I don't come over to your house and do this to your family..." There was a look in her eyes and a way that her mouth was set that said '... but I could.'
Did I mention that I love my friends mom? (Not my friend's sister's X-mother in law.)
We needed to figure out tables, figure out chairs, do vacuuming, and some baby sitting while cleaning and cooking that we were told that we wouldn't have to do.
I understand that this was someone else's home that they were nice enough to let us use, but it would be nice if they kept promises.
Once again. All in all, the party turned out great. It was just getting to it that was the difficult part.
