Tonight we " meet the parents " we're having them over for dinner and so the scrambling, cleaning, putting things just so, has begun.
My daughter came by earlier and said " Mom, don't make yourself crazy " ( well actually she said " Mom, don't make yourself crazier than you already are )
The table is set
and she says " Tony's parents keep plastic plants around the pool because they don't like the fuss and bother .............................."
My napkin rings are diamonds - ( real diamonds - all 8 of them - 75 karats each )
Think I'll wear one of them - ( just to impress them ) just call me Elizabeth -
John walked by while I was trying to snap a photo of this - and shaking his head
he says - " off the wall - completely off the wall "
But look at the rock you bought me darling.......................
Oh - and they really like my ex - without going into a lot of embarrassing detail here - I can tell you right now that if they really like my ex - we are not going to have an awful lot in common, lol
and PLEASE DON'T LET ME START DRINKING WINE BEFORE THEY GET HERE..................
I have a terrible habit of starting before people arrive - and I'm usually half in the bag by the time I open the door - ready to party - which is ok when it's your friends ( well my friends anyway ) but probably wouldn't make for a first good impression.........
Maybe I'll pull a Barbra Streisand in Meet the Fockers - and tell them I'm a sex therapist
John would choke on that - absolutely without a doubt...........................
Wish me luck!

UPDATE - I'll only have 1 glass of wine before they get here - promise..............
UPDATE B - care to see how the evening went? you can click HERE - ( this could have only happened
to me )
John can have the smaller one -
Has anyone seen these before? They hold a bottle of wine, lol - wouldn't a few of them make a
beautiful center piece?
