So we went to this wedding for Katey's friend Corina last night. It was in a far northeast suburb. Friend Judy Burkland took this photo of us in the lobby before we left. Aside from a really old guy in a walker, it seemed we were the oldest ones there. The wedding party was enormous. My girl was one of the bridesmaids. The look of the young attendees was dressy with a massive amounts of colorful tattoos. The men wore everything from coats and ties to shorts with a back braid. The world is changing and thats ok with me. I really would not want it to stay the same.
The food was above average wedding fare with Alfredo, chicken, salad and pork tenderloin. We did not know a soul aside from our daughter and the bride. Were seated by a trio of chatty females one of which gave my seat over to a fortyish woman in gold sparkly dress so they could have a lengthy conversation that went on and on and on. So now, I'm standing there with little polite recourse other than to continue standing there and smiling. We left after dinner because dear Joyce our 92 year old pal was watching the dogs and we needed to get back. All was well with her and the pooches. Truly, it was good to get home.
Supposed to be another nice day. Getting Shannon later for a two day visit with the upcoming holiday. It will be B and the B and others with a visit with her old pals downstairs. My little grandson has Covid. Hopefully he is feeling better today.
Even though I was a guy that wore a coat and tie everyday for years, I am no longer comfortable in this garb. Getting dressed up seems to be a burden. The suit is too big and the pants are loose. Can still tie a pretty good knot, but for what? Happier in shorts and sneakers at this point.
all for now
enjoy this day
stay safe
