I'm back from my brief weekend away - and I am very glad to be home. The flying was actually ok, I get quite nervous before flying but I managed to cope. On the way it was quite amazing as we were flying in heavy cloud & all you could see out the window was white. It felt like I was in some totally new kind of space. On the way home it was clear (although a bit bumpy) and I got a really great view of our house...I could see it so clearly, even the dog in the backyard. Then when I stepped off the plane onto the tarmac I could see two little faces watching me through the window, it was so wonderful to see them again. Once inside, they both came running up to me, arms outstreched & we embraced in a big group hug. Then they asked where the Krispy Kreme doughnuts were! :)

The wedding itself was pretty bad...put it this way...I don't think my cousin & I are talking to each other. As I thought it would be - just nothing organised. So some tables on the night got no food, which is kind of not cool when people have travelled & spent money, they would like to be fed at least. My cousins attitude was pretty shitty & during dinner (we were served first luckily) she told me to fuck off. So that was that!
It was a strange night were the more I drank the soberer I seemed to get. Seeming to prove to me that attitued plays a part in how one feels when drinking. The only real positives were that the family got to see each other & spend time being a bit silly together.

I really don't understand how she just couldn't get it together to not get simple things organised. There is being relaxed but this was more like not caring. She looked really bad...we went to a salon to get our hair / makeup done & they ladies there weren't makeup artists. They were obsessed with wanting to wax my eyebrows (NO WAY!) and when I said I like quite pale make up they slapped on the bronzer so I looked kind of terracotta coloured...can't wait to see how the photos turn out.

Anyway, it is all over & done now...next comes Christmas!
