Birthdays & Wedding Days

Tomorrow we are off to a family birthday BBQ, we are collecting MIL & SFIL on the way & we will leave when they get tired. Mil loves to attend family events, but the travelling is difficult for her.

We received a wedding invitation this morning, the wedding has been brought forward a year in the hope that MIL will be able to attend. 
We aren't having a holiday this year as we have purchased a car, but I have my pension lump sum due soon, this will be used to pay off the car loan. There will be enough left to pay for two rooms in the hotel, one for us & one for MIL & SFIL where the Wedding reception is to be held.  
I can't drive to & from the reception as I can no longer see to drive in the dark & the reception doesn't start until 4 o'clock & it will be dark by then.

From Margie in Toronto - I think it's lovely of the bride and groom to move things up so your MIL can attend. A friend of mine also has terminal cancer and two of her daughters are getting married this year - one in a couple of weeks and that should be fine, but the second isn't until October so that one might be a bit more difficult. We're keeping our fingers crossed.

It is very kind of you to treat them to the hotel as well - that should make things much more comfortable for her. Enjoy.

Feeling stressed.

I'm worried about Beano, his nose is warm and dry and he hasn't wanted to go out for his usual walks today. My face is sore it feels...
