Living with Pulmonary Fibrosis Patient Event

Wedding Day! Schedule: Shower, bank (to get the Rita Ring), professional makeup applied, dress, leave by 12:45, fight the pumpkin traffic, arrive at site at 1:30, wedding 2:30, drive to reception which begins at 4:30, enjoy. Going to be crazy. While all this is happening, Wayne will be screwing the 2x2s to the top of the arbor. Another check off my list.

We are so happy for Mindy and Joel. They are two wonderful people who found each other over five years ago, worked hard to nail down fantastic jobs and are now ready to begin the next step in life together. I have no doubt that they will be married for many decades. This will be a very joyous wedding.

Michael is still not at the top of his game so I doubt that he will having any cocktails today. I also think we will probably stay until the cake is cut then quietly head home.

We will see people we have not seen in years. We will have fun watching this sweet couple making this commitment to each other. We will enjoy being together for the day.

If you are in California, this will be an interesting event at UC Davis. The information is below:
