Monday was a drag. I mean it was long as can be. We did a few wedding things after work. I started to feel like maybe I was finally coming down with that bug going around. I was exhausted. I went by fast though.
That night it was time for a real Christmas horror movie. “Silent Night”. As gruesome as it was hilarious. Well someone dressed like Santa is killing people in a town that host a Santa dress up festival. So who did it. Well the sorry is actually pretty good and rather good. What can I say, I watch it every year.
Tree lighting was a lot of fun. Yvette and I met Lola, her friend and the little girl. It’s a good campus tradition. I have probably attended everyone since 2018. I actually met Yvette at the 2019 tree lighting. What a deal that was for us. Who knew back then. Lucky me. So Tuesdays lighting was much larger than those days. They even had a train. The sweet girl was entertained. It was just a really good experience.
Wednesday was crazy at work. The morning was too much. I don’t know why. We also had wedding things going on. Trying to work out all the final touches. Paying the dumb venue owner what we owe. I also had to go get the mimosa tower. I just ordered some carry out food and a few beers after that and went home with my borrowed tower. I felt I owed them for letting me have the tower so I bought food and a drink. I needed the drink. It was a damn day.
Thursday was kind of an anxiety filled day. Not for the reason you would think, the wedding, but because Yvette and I were going to the Symphony Christmas party. This was a suit and tie event for the most part and it was right before the wedding. It was also a days notice for us which left me scrambling to not look like a bum. I have my wedding attire but I needed something else. It all worked out and we both looked rather great. We received complements. The food was fantastic and the music stunning. The wine was delicious. It was what we both needed. A little moment to relax. I was a beautiful night.
Friday, happy Friday! I went to work for half the day and really didn’t do a whole lot. I might as well have taken the entire day. The second half of the day I took care of wedding things. It was a very busy day. A good day. My brothers made it into town. I might sign off for a bit. No wedding blog. That’s all ours and the quest. Again, happy Friday!!!

Teriyaki lil smokies with pineapples and rice.
While running wedding errands I picked up some food from one of my stops that happened to also deal out food. Braised beef rib quesadillas. Fantastic.
